6738

Monsters now drop loot, currently limited to prestige point items and gold only. The % chance of loot drop goes up based of the creature level and the party size, rewarding larger parties and those whom dare take a challenge.

Please note some monster types may not drop loot.

Strife and Discord · 11 Apr 2020, 20:17

6768:

Once this version will be live, players will have two new dot commands to play with. They were tested, but if any bug is discovered feel free to report it.

.setemote# :
- What is It? This new dot command helps you bypass the pesky character limit of macros in Quickbars and let you set much MUCHHH longer emotes for yourself. Additionally you do not need to set them in your quickbar at all. Currently you will be able to set for yourself up to 10 emotes.
- How Does it work? Simply type %(#0099ff)[.setemote# X TEXT] (X is a number between 1-10 and TEXT is the emote you want). You will receive a confirmation message upon success and the emote will be saved on your BIC file persistently. %(#ff0000)[Be advised that it will run over any pre-existing emote you may have saved so be careful!]
.em# :
- What is It? This new dot command helps you reach out and speak the saved emote of choice. Currently you are able to use up to 10 saved emotes.
- How Does it work? Simply type %(#0099ff)[.em# X] (X is a number between 1-10). The Emote will be spoken right away from the saved variable on your BIC file.

Strife and Discord · 13 Apr 2020, 22:37

6771:

Includes few major fixes - Especially around conversation and selection of choices(Fugue for example, Player Tools, etc).
Please report any bug you find and make sure it is elaborate as possible(What Dialogue options you used, who you talked with and where, etc).

StrawMan · 28 Apr 2020, 01:13

6804:
Characters can now acquire new languages in-game.

Certain lore / language placeables will now provide insight into what language they're composed in.
Points invested in Lore will provide additional value towards learning any given language.

The more you explore and study, the greater the opportunity for insight.
Bear in mind that some languages are more difficult to grasp than others.

Any respective character requires a minimum of Intelligence 12 and an additional free language slot in order to learn a new tongue in this manner.

Strife and Discord · 28 Apr 2020, 23:16

Special Change(Not linked to any version):

We have made a change to two key major files:

File that deals with language translations
File that deals with options carried over in conversations

We did not merge this with any version, so we can monitor any impact closely.
Please keep your eyes open and report any issues you may encounter in Languages/Conversation areas.
