NEW Magincia

I currently there, on the docks. If I jump in the water, could someone hold me under until I'm dead Please?
besides,I always wanted to die under a Skiddles rainbow

 

[Sevin0oo0]

where are the new mobs...

Thanks for looking!, that was the only reason I went, but I'm not gonna start looking up and doing quests to enter SA or sail w/ a crap map, I'll wait.

Detect hidden will once again detect everyone. Detect hidden will apply out of hide timer to detected players that are freely aggressable.

Thank you for this.

I second that!

yaa!

that was one of the worst changes that ever hit the game, glad to see they reverted it back.
but did they put it back the way it use to be or did they make some changes too it...... hmmmm

I'm puzzled too as to whether they actually changed anything. What the heck does that second sentence mean? How do you apply "detect hidden" to a "freely aggressable" character that is already "detected"?? If they're already detected, they aren't hidden. And what does "freely aggressable" mean? Does my detector still have to be gray or red to detect blue characters? And can my blue detector once again detect a faction mate?

Time to get on Test and check it out, I suppose. I'll try and get ICQ reinstalled today Poo and give you a shout.

I like the new wood tileset in use there, but why does the art team have such an issue making things that tile seamlessly these days? I mean... vertically, it's a mess. Horizontally, there are areaas that don't line up along the upper edges.

Buy Grimm a pair of glasses if need be, but please, PLEASE stop releasing non-tiling art tiles.

PLEASE.

Gates in the center of the island don't work because of the way the fence tiles work.

Also, while the marble garden area in the mid-northwest of town is a nice idea aesthetically, anyone who plants a plant beyond the first row won't be able to reach it later as it'll be "out of sight," and not sure how planting works in the middle of the square.

And I really wish we could get an in-game date system that matches the 1:12 time compression that runs behind the game code (Cal, I've can give you sample script for that if you like) [as long as it's not the Eidolon "45th Day of December" calendar that he should have been virtually shot for]. Seeing "Planted on 3/18/2011" is horrifically disruptive to the immersion of the game -- though, so's the EC, so I digress.

I'm not seeing a new housing tile set on test, wasn't there some mention of this in the video?

 

[Petra Fyde]

I'm not 100% sure but I think the new house tiles are destined to be part of the mini-booster when we see it.

The new tile set is supposed to be exclusive to the Magincia houses.

here's me, perfecting yet another skill ~ Set-Up for Disappointment


totally missed the part about it being exclusive to those

It was specifically said that the new housing tileset would not be with Pub 70.

I'm not 100% sure but I think the new house tiles are destined to be part of the mini-booster when we see it.

Possibly... I hope not, but possibly.

The new tile set is supposed to be exclusive to the Magincia houses.

That was never said or implied.

a little Magencia preview on Legends

Oh, a NEW Magincia nitpick..

The trees... They should be jungle trees, not the hardwoods. Banana trees and small palms just look silly together with hardwoods.
