May 11 Developer Update "What to Expect"
Hey TDN Community.
On May 11th, at 10am PDT, we will reopen the server for folks to login and make their characters. We have an entirely new set of assets that folks can utilize. There are some key pieces we're sorting out so please be aware of the following:
- If you find that there are assets or options that seem to be missing, we expect to have more assets added in between May 11 and May 18 (and even beyond May 18).
- Please do your best to work with what is available to the best of your ability.
- Keep an eye on Patch notes in Discord for notifications on added assets to utilize.
- Clipping happens on occasion. Please do not submit clipping bug reports. Our recommendation is to work to find an asset option that doesn't clip with the selection.
- On May 18th, once you load into a non-OOC zone, the following settings will be locked for your character (and require DM assistance to reactivate):
- Head selection
- Skin Color selection
- Eye Colo selection
- The Armor editor tool now has a button for saving Outfits (titled the "Outfitter" Tool).
A few notes:
- All spell/ability descriptions should now be updated and match the wiki.
- If something doesn't match, bug report it (Wiki should be source of truth).
- So far performance with the new assets has been great. However we are cautiously optimitic around this, so we are going to be doing a staggered player-cap for Soft Launch so we can evaluate performance.
- Please utilize 'player-support' channels and DM tickets on Discord to ensure any issues you come across are seen. Additionally, the "!bugreport" command is a viable method of reporting problems you encounter.
We look forward to seeing you in-game!
