JY 2603 patch

Update on official forum Revaluation of the game's missions to expand your fun.

Th 28th May: Patch 745 is available. Fix the matis<->fyros fame switch and Nexus map.

For US: May, 17th May after 22:00 UTC, and May 18th after midnight CEST. To JY 2603 Documentation (work in progress).

In short (see full message on the official forum), a client, data and server patching and a restart of the game server :

Additions:

new interface for teleportation at Kamis and Karavan altars, Option to automatically rebuy a Kami or Kara pact after a TP (requires max fame)
ZIG me up: option to put a Zig in the bag, your Zig can be teleported with you
team Invite button in Guild Member List and Friend List
welcome message in chat channels

Improvements:

Kami and Karavan teleport pacts no longer have weight/bulk in your bag
Ryzom installer (new URLs for download, erasing of a profile on MAC or Linux debugged)
New fresh backgrounds for icons
landmarks stored in XML file instead of ICFG file (meaning editable out of game)
new underwear icons (they now show the right color)

This patch also includes the results of the work done on Dynamic Events (DE), New Horizons (NH) and the target command.

Dynamic Events: addition of the "Kitin Invasion", "Puzzle" Dynamic Event, a new button in the Map (to display all Dynamic Events, with a new a blue round icon)
New Horizons: merger of New Horizons and Brotherhood of the Fortunate Gubani; global limit for "Support Missions" (fame rewards) removed; 1 000 dappers for all (whatever their fame)...
Target command now supports keyword search (e.g. for a yubo) as follows:
- /tar yubo -- no quotes, target closest entity that contains 'yubo' in its name;
- /tar suckling yubo -- no quotes, target closest entity that contains both 'suckling' and 'yubo' in its name;
- Order not important, full words not needed '/tar y kling' would be a match. Also /tar "ora" -- with quotes, Will target an entity who's name starts with 'ora', as currently /tar "suckling yubo" -- with quotes, targets an entity who's name starts with 'suckling yubo';
- some current old macros may need quotes now for short keywords, i.e. 'ora', but existing macros using quotes will continue to work.

Addendum: Evolution of hardware infrastructure

The month of March and the beginning of April were the occasion for a spring cleaning, including:

the moving of the billing server to https://account.ryzom.com
the migration of Ryzom Chat to another server while retaining its URL: https://chat.ryzom.com.
the migration of the Yubo server to a new, more powerful machine; it is now dedicated to the tests required by ongoing developments;
the installation, identical to that of Yubo, of a new server called Gingo, which hosts the tests for acceptance of completed developments before they are put into operation on Atys; this is the pre-production server whose implementation was long overdue;

The next step in the hardware reconfiguration of the platform will see the migration of Atys, the game server, to new higher performing machine and the confirmation of Gingo as the Atys mirror server facilitating the application of patches and providing a rescue solution in the event of a failure of the latter. The Ryzom Team remains at your disposal for any additional information, and best wishes to you!
