Since the beginning of Project Rainbow : 640 graphics assets modified / added to the game.   Team Skittles' mandate is to differentiate items from "junk" loot and separate "special" items from other "mundane" ones. We try to create at least one voluntary positive change per patch cycle, aside from other tasks assigned or requested for current development projects.   Most recent updates to items of this nature : Golden Washboard, Tolerance, Intolerance, Warrior's Resolve and Tactical Advantage devices. We're also in yer cargo hold, colorizing yer ammo  :lol:   Xelkos : the suggested change would require modifying how the client handles, displays items and their properties. Not possible.   Personal comment : while the harpy model is common to other devices, it is NOT used on any "junk" stackable. So if you shift+clicked a sell on it .... well. Yeah. (*points and laughs*)

  Hmm, are we referring to the oldtimers or their inventories?

You have perhaps forgotten they are on a separate game account from those 2 characters. Try logging in with your other username at Megan, and they'll magically appear.

TY karu

Have you tried /fmu and relogging the character ?

Hi everyone.   The last week or so, we have had some server issues which ultimately caused a couple of long outages for Net-7. (yes, that's why the websites were down yesterday, as well as TS)   The issue was traced to a faulty NIC and has hopefully been resolved. Yay !!!

It was given to the Sentinel and the Scout only because their primary weapons require ammunition. The Jenquai Explorer's primary weapon is beams and does not.

Currently we are looking at this morning's issues post-patch. The server may go up and down a couple of times while we verify stages of the fix, please refrain from logging in while we are working on it. When the work is completed we will post a message on the launcher.

Coffee with steak, eggs sunny side, hot biscuits and sausage gravy. (Bob Evans restaurants, Big Boy etc.) Coffee with leftover double pepperoni and cheese pizza. (pizza cold, coffee hot) Coffee with bacon, scrambled eggs and hash browns. Coffee with a bagel and cream cheese. Coffee with cream and sugar. Coffee with .. Coffee.

Thank you Rose, you also, and everyone have a Merry Christmas, happy holiday, or whichever you celebrate.   On behalf of the EMU team, everyone enjoy their festivities, be safe, and best wishes for the coming year.

This is a very new forum, and given to the community to discuss "Real Life". As a new addition, it will be moderated, and watched. I would suggest that in light of that, the usual terms of polite conversation be applied here, and the usual three topics never to discuss are :   1) Politics 2) Race and Religion 3) Sex and/or sexual orientation.   If you find you cannot refrain from this basic premise, this is probably not the forum you are looking for. <jedi hand wave>

Current issued are DNS related, specifically some ISP's are having trouble resolving parts of our subdomains (ex : patch.net-7.org) which is causing the launcher to spit errors. For example, I was able to log in with 0 errors via a mobile link with my laptop, however my main system won't connect through my cable ISP.   Some other providers are NOT having this difficulty. Basically, DON'T PANIC.

Getting ingame feedback that Earth sector is blackholed. Unable to undock from ES, or gate into sector.

The effect is applied to the sector as a whole, it is not localized. On / Off switch.

I have added this as a poll topic. Poll will run until December 1st, 2013, and any changes will be applied the following patch.  

This week's patch completes changes to the Tada-O ammo series (Spit, Zet PL, Oya, Berserk, Menace, PL-X6, Panic, Fright, Scare, Startle) We re-classed the ammo by levels (some of the icons were assigned wrong), changed the Oya to fully use one of these sets (was using 3 different icons). Then we did .. something completely different.   [attachment=2756:Tada-O.jpg]   What you see in the bottom row is the result of 2 months worth of brainstorming to transform the Ten-gu Bile ammo types. You now actually have Spines and Fangs in the ammo rack, colored for damage.  B)   Enjoy!  

There's nothing stopping the possibility of such development happening, nor was I excluding it. The related content was never there, can and may still be developed. Merely was pointing out it wasn't in the works at the moment, because of the previous holes in the table. The two we filled -might- work into something. No promises.   Kind of a chicken and the egg thing, which came first, the collectable loot set, or the storyline and the mobs that drop them?  :D

I'm going to reply to this in parts Liucee, because you're touching on different aspects of content with this question.   First, the tile selections that are ingame as loot items were never really linked to any content as such, and were "junk" loot. We merely replaced the graphics on a per item basis to separate them from other groups of items using the same visual asset. There were no complete sets as such. We actually added new assets to complete the dragon, winds, honor and flower sets, which may be used at a later date in addition of new content, and this was done simply because I wanted to make sure the full "premium" set was available. For the moment though, we did not undertake adding ALL the tiles because of the numbers involved, so the base suited sets remain incomplete. Basically, if you were to use a deck of cards as a reference, the face cards are all in, and the aces.   Second, the porcelain figurines were also an incomplete set. That we also filled out to encompass all twelve zodiac symbols. Again, possibly linking to future story development and to give us options to move in this direction later, but for the moment, I can't answer as to when, where, why, or how, because we haven't anything on the planning board for them. Not Yet. The changes we made to both these and the "premium" tile sets were only in the interest of completion.   Also note that you may not see all the additions we made so far because the items haven't been assigned to actual loot drops. ie. the 3 new figurines previously not ingame.   Last, The white dragon tile. In some sets, it -IS- actually a blank. Others have it as a square on the tile face. We chose the nicest one we could find  :)

Yes. Bile ammo uses the same asset series as the Zet PL, Spit, etc, so expect that change very soon. We're finished the graphics for one set, the other 2 are going into testing this week.

This week, we're changing some of the RD loot graphics to get them away from likenesses to specialty items.   The tired old prism icon, generic loot image for whatever needed an icon, overused and abused for many different things   [attachment=2730:PU06.jpg] has been replaced. No more confusing your junk RD loot with your CVE or AA devices.   Here's a peek at the change :   [attachment=2729:figurines3.jpg]   Expect those ammo changes I mentioned previously in the coming week. Cheers for now.    

.. and it appears the Terran reports were flagged no-trade. Fixed, but awaiting push.

There's no reports in this mission ... I'm guessing you mean in the "Brush Pass" ?

This week's roundup : After today's restart, Progens should have shiny new tokens, all the Mahjongg tiles have been replaced, and those of you with Black Spit ammo in their cargo holds or vaults have come over to the dark side. Oh, and a one-off for Amethyst, have a look at your new duct tape.   [attachment=2723:push.jpg]   Obviously you can see that we're working on that projectile ammo group, so there's the next change to expect. While we do that this week, I can maybe get a few more missions completed and cranked out.
