Bug Report Solved Screen turns dark before bosses in some dungeons

Hello
this happened to me this week that in some dungeons, when it comes to the final battle with the boss, the screen cuts and suddenly goes black. The game continues, the audio works normally, but you can't continue because can't see because of the sudden black screen.
Specifically, it happened to me in the dungeons of Nyrol's Nest and Juno Crystal Gallery, maybe it happens in others dungeons as well.

Bug Report Solved Channels do not exist when porting to Arteicia

When using the 'Port to Arteicia'-Button in the character selection you get ported to Arteicia, but no channel is applied. So the game says you are at channel X but you can see every player from every channel and everyone can see you.

1. Situation: While standing in the egg circle on channel 1, I logged in with an Alt to care the circle. The alt was on channel 3 but I was able to see the Alt and the alt was able to interact with the circle although they were on different channels.

2. Situation. I saw a player doing a duel, but I was not able to see the opponent. So the player I saw was on every channel and was fighting a player from another channel.

That's not a problem in the first place, but it can lead to some performance issues as I don't know how long this effect will last, so when a channel will actually be applied.

Developer Update A very noodley Thanksgiving update

This is only going to be a small development update, and is mostly to show off some new Dragons that will be coming out around Chinese New Year.

We've recently (as in today) resolved one of the tasks that has been preventing us from making progress with the source update, which will free us up to move on to other issues and tasks. We've also made a few further optimizations for UI loading as well as how files are handled, and are still doing some research into how we can bring about better performance which is one of the more important things we want to accomplish with the client after launch. Once we stop getting bug reports over medium priority we will focus on finishing up some changes we need to make, and have testers do the final test.

A long with the work being done on the source code, Aiden has been working on some additional noodles that were based off of some concept/merch that I had @Vipera do. Currently we have 3/5 concepts completed (or mostly completed) and plan on finishing up the other two before Chinese New Year.

Chi Fu

This was one of the original concept pieces by @Vipera (Chi Fu Skateboard) that I had her do as a Skateboard design for our merch shop. There is also another new concept there for Luo Yi, but that concept has not been completed for preview yet. You can see all of the Skateboard designs with all current noodle concepts on our Threadless store: Shop the Skateboards Collection on AdeptGamer's Merchandise | Featuring custom t-shirts, prints, and more

The intent was to do something demonic or evil, which I think both Vipera and @Aiden accomplished ?.

Unnamed Storm Noodle

This was another happy little accident when Aiden was playing around with sliders, and she ended up refining it and adding the electricity effect. We are currently waiting on a name from @Compeador.

Unnamed Holy Noodle

This was something that Aiden and I had talked about doing a while back, but decided to do it to play opposite of Chi Fu. Currently there is no name for it as it was just completed today (or at least mostly completed), but we do intend to do some merch with this and Chi Fu.

The colors used for this dragon to give it the opalescence effect are all inspired and borrowed from Opal Wind (Opal wind) by @Annimora. This served as a test to see if we could accomplish what she was trying to show with her submission, and I think it came out pretty well, now hopefully we can do the same with the Crystalline Chaos model (we may just have to make it an emissive bomb).

There are two other noodles planned, one of which is Luo Yi which you can see in the Threadless shop. Luo Yi will be a counterpoint to Yan Yu, which was based off of the night sky while Luo Yi will be based off of Dawn/Dusk.

The last noodle will be a surprise because it will likely be the fan favorite, and has been something Aiden and I have been discussing since last summer.

Hello Team,

The GM event currently takes place at 6PM EST on Saturdays. I have received multiple requests to change the time. However, due to this game spanning across multiple timezones, I will be using the below poll to determine GM event times. **NOTE** This does not mean GM events will be changing times. There will be an announcement IF this happens. so do not go spreading rumors. I can do the event up to 3 hours earlier.

30 Days to decide, thanks.

Ancient Egg Hoarder Returns

Greetings!

Like the title says I'm an old member from the original games returning to find a new server that hits my heart. This game was my introduction to MMOs and it has a special place in my heart, hearing the old server completely shut down devastated me for literal years till the other day when I found this! My Persona even comes from my main old character on this game <3 For me to get his exact look back though i may have to wait for the Halloween items :confused: oh well worth it!

I hope to get involved in the community and am loving the dragons in the Dev updates! Maybe one day ill try my hand at retexturing like I used to years ago. Even if its just for the fun of it! :D

Anywho feel free to say hi!

Dragon's Prophet Weekly Maintenance 11/08/2021

We will be having our weekly routine maintenance at 7 PM PST Monday evening. During the maintenance we will be doing the following:
  • This is a larger update that is made up of 34 individual patches that provides higher quality textures of existing Dragons. This will help with general muddiness of some Dragon textures, though there are some textures that will need to be completely redone from scratch in the future to fully fix the issues with them.
    • There may be some artifacting on some textures, primarily outlining or pixelation on hair or edges of a texture. These will be looked at and fixed as we go about updating models, or releasing new Dragon textures for individual models.
Maintenance generally lasts between 1-2 hours, though we will announce in the Discord if it will take longer. You can join our Discord by going here: Join the AdeptGamer Discord Server!

Suggestion Rejected Fabled ancient base stat changer int/str

As with many things, I am not sure if this is possible, but there are some special fabled ancients who instead of having a really high strength base stat scaling have a really high int base scaling. Examples for that kind of thing would be the infernum dragon, guilded champion, sylvaran i believe as well and so on. This makes thouse dragon's a relatively obvious choice over other fabled ancients, as they heal a decent bit more effective than their strength counterparts, so they're better at keeping themselves and the player alive. The difference isn't all that big, but it would be nice to be able to get your other fabled's up to speed with some item of some sort.

  • Suggestion
Suggestion Planned New random Skills

Could you please implement new Skills?

You could randomly distribute them on all worlds. Not too many, just a few. Well hidden and only be to found via a small icon.
Skills for dragons, but also for players, would be nice... e.g. healing or support skills. Soul-bound and not transferable to other characters.
This may also encourage the group to play more.


To encourage the whole thing, an email notification to everyone would be nice; to add increase ambition and incentive.

The level limitation of the dragons and the character should also be ended slowly, as the game is currently very monotonous.
The levels above the current limit would just have to be harder to reach in order to increase the incentive for the game.

Thx a lot
Galban


Deutsch:
Könnten Sie neue Skills einbinden?

Man könnte sie zufällig auf allen Welten verteilen. Nicht zu viele nur ein paar. Gut versteckt und nur über ein kleines Symbol zu finden.
Skills für Drachen, aber auch für Spieler wären vorstellbar.. z.B. Heil- oder Supportskills.
Seelengebunden und nicht auf andere Chars übertragbar.
Damit wird vielleicht auch das Gruppenspiel mehr gefördert.

Um das ganze zu fördern, wäre eine Mail-Benachrichtigung an alle schön, um den Ehrgeiz und den Anreiz zu steigern.

Auch die Levelbegrenzung der Drachen und der Charakter sollte langsam beendet werden, da das Spiel derzeit sehr eintönig wird..
Die Level oberhalb der jetzigen Grenze müssten nur sehr schwer erreichbar sein, um den Reiz zu erhöhen.

Vielen Dank
Galban
