The transcribed authors are those who made the original changelog forum posts, with individual contributors (where possible) mentioned in the post. Any posts after the 13th of April, 2023 will not mention an author but will include contributors where possible. Due to the nature of forum-based logging, not all dates are confirmed to be accurate.

Build 301o BETA: The WTF, was that all edition? - 05/07/2015 -LostInSpace |
- A small series of bugs fixed
- Clerk's ward Upper District updated |
Build 301l BETA: The Wayfarer Fares Well - 30/05/2015 - LostInSpace |
- A series of merchant bugs fixed
- Hall of Records and Gymnasium bugs fixed - Mithardir Hidden Entry fixed, gate fixed, pillars unpassable, etc - Some pawn stores adjusted - Marilith Dervish given weapons - ...and other bug fixes
|
Build 301i BETA: The Wizbang Edition - 08/04/2015 - LostInSpace |
- fixed shadow conjuration summon. Now it works. And the Shadow Spider is now a Shadow Spider Stalker.
- gates between Sylvania and Mithardir fixed - Vipers in Mithardir made a little less deadly - Wizard Hat model selectable for cloaks (pending update of server override for script implementation) - corrected spelling - Chest in The Great Gymnasium no longer has any inventory so you can't mistakenly be rid of your teddybear anymore. - Screeching sound in Mithardir dungeons/Neth should be gone - Some other placeable tweaks |
Build 301 BETAh: The Cleanup and Dirtywork Edition - 07/04/2015 - LostInSpace |
Area Additions: The Great Gymnasium added Arborea – Mithardir added, including shifting and gate options (4 areas total) 1 plot area added Cloak Editor Update: The wrap cloaks should now be selectable The conversation has been remade to be much easier to find one’s way through. Tweaks: A few minor tweaks like bind points. The fey dungeon now has a final boss. Bugfixes: Shadow Conjuration: Summon should now work. It will conjure: SD level up to 8: Shadow Mastiff SD level 8 to 10: Shadow Spider SD level 11 and above: Invisible Stalker, Huge
Good characters will summon an Avoral Evil characters will summon a Belker Lawful neutral will summon a Formian Warrior Chaotic Neutral will summon a Green Slaad TN will summon randomly a Formian or a Green Slaad
Carceri does not need to be fixed, you just haven’t tried hard enough. (Also, yeah, sorry, but the lower level you are, the more difficult it will be to find what you need to get out). Summons update: The highest tier summons have been renamed to on the one hand be more appropriate (no more killing rats with balors), and on the other hand to mark their special status. They now all require the caster to be 20th level to chose, and are now named Abyssal Ghoul Ravager, Astral Deva Crusader, Chaosforged Death Slaad, Cornugon Chainmauler, Curst Warrior, Invisible Stalker, Elder, Maelbranche Tormentor, Marilith Dervish, Molydeus Blademaster, Stormcloud Belker and Nightcrawler Predator. To make them more equal on footing the following changes have been made. This is a first step and further tweaking may be necessary. They are below listed after their former name with name change provided: Abyssal Ghoul renamed: Abyssal Ghoul Ravager +4 levels, +1 str
Balor renamed: Molydeus Blademaster + weapon (=can be enchanted)
Belker, Huge renamed: Stormcloud Belker +1Dex, +2 AC
Chaosforged Death Slaad +2st, +2 Con, +1 AC, +2 Will, +2 Fort
Cornugon renamed: Cornugon Chainmauler +better morningstar (+1d6 fire, +2AB, +4AB vs Good), +3str, +1 con, +4 levels, +improved critical
Curst Warrior +3 levels
Elder Air Elemental +2 AC renamed: Air Elemental Whirlwind Elder Earth Elemental +2 CON renamed: Earth Elemental Colossus Elder Fire Elemental +2 STR renamed: Inferno Fire Elemental Elder Water Elemental + Regen renamed: Eternal Sea Water Elemental Elder Ice Paraelemental renamed: Frostbie Ice Paraelemental Elder Magma Paraelemental renamed: Molten Magma Paraelemental
Invisible Stalker, Elder +3AC
renamed: Marlith Dervish +1 str, +3 dex, + Whirlwind Attack, + Imp. Whirlwind Attack
renamed: Nightcrawler Predator +2 con
Renamed: Maelbranche Tormentor +3 str (=2 add. bonus), +improved power attack
Planetar renamed: Astral Deva Crusader Warhammer + Shield instead of Greatsword (AC adjusted to remain same); lower str
All of these have been given a level requirement of 20 to chose as option for "gate" when appliccable.
We will have to see how this plays out, since some boosts are significant but from a ridiculous difference in power level between summoning books.
Celestial Summons The Celestials Summon lineup has been changed to: 1 Coure 2 Musteval 3 Hound Archon 4 Movanic Deva 5 Firre 6 Shiere 7 Monadic Deva 8 Ghaele 9 Astral Deva Crusader (These changes are currently cosmetic, power levels are as before aside the Astral Deva Crusader)
Gold Worth Tweaking: To make gold just a little more meaningful, a few things have been looked into. All pawnshops have had their payment ceiling lowered as well as slightly reduced pay for items. All shops have had their ceiling lowered and in almost all cases had an appraise roll added. The merchants have been given appraise skill. This is meant to ensure that appropriate builds become more important for gold return.
It is also meant to ensure that moving around the server is more beneficial: depending on your character you’d find stores with high or low appraise better, with high ceiling or high pay% better, etc. Generally, these factors play differently so that the highest ceiling has a lower % and higher npc appraise, whereas low ceiling and low% would have low npc appraise, etc. To not punish new characters too hard the Bronze Bezant have primarily had the ceiling lowered while the % and appraise have been kept fairly similar. Loot and merchants have been gone through and all wands have had the amount charges lowered (ca ½). This is another part in trying to address gold economy, and to decrease’pocket mage’ tendencies. This does not affect wands created by PCs. Module Cleanup: About 100 unused monsters/npcs and their items removed (many of which belonged to the removed areas or has previously been taken out of spawns) About 80 scripts removed (about 30 unused; about 50 unnecessary scripts 'doubles' replaced with variable-based scripts and removed) About 20 unused conversations removed About 60 items removed (doubles or trivial variants, e.g. ”cloaked” versions of various clothes) from resources About 100 items (keys, faction tokens) removed from resources and instead placed in containers. 1 unused area removed (”Daeth Tower”) A range of faultily named resources (conversations, scripts, etc) have been replaced with correctly named resources. |
Build 301 BETAf - 22/03/2015 - LostInSpace |
The following areas have been removed (a total of 52 areas): Abyss - Layer 492 - Stygian Incursion - The Purple Eye - * Baator - * (Keep Baator - Avernus - River of Blood as a z. area) Hades - Niflheim - Cave - * Hades - Niflheim - Palace of Loss Hades - Pluton - Underworld Plain Sigil - Lower Ward - Sugarwater LLC Sigil - Lower Ward - The Tailed Tailor Underhalls - * Outlands - Torch - * (Keep Outlands - Torch as a z. area) Outlands - Tradegate - * Outlands - The Tower
Added two new quest areas ("z. areas") Bugfixes: A series of area bugs fixed, mostly missing or unreachable transitions, and unfinished conversations. |
