From EncyclopAtys
Patch 619 released Thursday, May 3rd 2007. Release Notes can be seen here.
Features
Casino
- A dapper-loving brotherhood has installed wheels of fortune in the four capital cities of Atys. You may wish to talk to the following NPCs: Ba'Arppy Garren, Ba'Gan Effxy, Ba'Duffy Baxan, and Ba'Dardan Garnan.
- When enjoying the fortune wheels, you cannot engage in a trade with other players. In order to do so, you will need to move a small distance away from the game.
Craft
- The modified crafting system is now live. You can read more details pertaining to it in the 'Developmentdevelopment documents' section of the Ryzom homepage.
Ruins of Silan
- The Ruins of Silan new-player experience has been slightly modified for a more enjoyable encounter.
Outposts
- When challenging an OP, you are now required to have at least one guild member online of roughly the same level of the OP (the guild member needs to be at least 50 levels lower than the quality of the op for highest skill the guild member has). I.E. To attack a lvl 100 the member needs to have at least a lvl 50 skill level.
This same member also has to be part of the guild since a certain time, which is 5 days for a level 50 OP, 10 days for a level 100, and so on until 25 days to declare on a level 250 OP.
Miscellaneous
- The error messages you may sometimes encounter have been rewritten in order to help you better understand a problem you may be experiencing.
- If you are under Death Penalty, you will now see a new "Skull/Death Head" icon.
- You may now change the priority of a patch from the character selection window.
- Misc text corrections.
- When setting the desktop color depth to 16 bits (while in game), the hardware mouse/cursor is no longer displayed as a black square.
