Suggestion Rejected Suggestion

So i've seen ragebart idea for inventory and saw that it couldn't be done .

I've had another idea for a while .

You add an option when you're in a shop that allows you to select 1 item to start the sellings then a second item where the sellings will end . Then you press a special button on the shop to sell every item inbetween . With this kind of thing no one should make a mistake and sell their stuff that way and people will sell quickly all the things they just farmed and don't need .

And another thing i don't know if it's possible but reducing extraction time would be pretty good imo , like half the actual time .

Recruiting Looking for Guild

Hi, I'm new on the server and wanted to ask if there are still active guilds.
A little company could not hurt. ;)

The best thing would be if there was even a european guild.

If this is not the case, of course, I'm still happy about connecting with a nice NA group.

Greetings

Dragon Preview Introducing: Galactic Storm

DragonsProphet_20190818_154705.jpg

As has been previewed in the past without the fixed emissive maps, here is the finished and final version of Galactic Storm, the first custom dragon that will be released for our server.

This dragon has been handpainted by @Aiden and took quite a long period of time to create due to all the detail work on the wings, the base texture and coloring, and especially on the chest to balance out the rest of the design.

Galactic Storm will launch on the Marketplace September 2nd until September 8th at Midnight.

We will be doing a different scheduling for our own custom Dragons, where they will only be available for a week at a time once a month.

What is coming next?

While Galactic Storm is just a recolor, we are using recolors as an important foundation step to overhauling the textures on Dragons. Currently these are the plans we have for doing recolors, retextures, and eventually our own custom models:
  1. Choose a Dragon model, and create a base texture, with separated paint layers.
  2. Recolor dragon, and work out a workflow, and figure out what elements are most important to that specific model (Runewake is the wings, the spikes on the head, the chest, and then the tailfins and spikes on the tail for example).
  3. Rework the base texture, swapping out scale pattern and details as needed, and use that to update the base of recolored dragons.
  4. Recolor existing dragons based on the new texture, releasing to update existing model colorations as needed.
The above steps will allow us to setup a foundation for creating textures for our own models when we get to that step.

Currently we are going to aim to have a new dragon done every 2 months, but that is dependent on the time that @Aiden has.

As far as prioritizing models, @Aiden will have a poll to decide on her Patreon soon to decide which model she will do next (AdeptGamer_Aiden is creating game assets | Patreon). She will also be previewing some teaser's of what she is working on, and also doing a pre-announcement before models are officially announced here (usually 1-2 weeks before we announce on our site).

Announcement The new Dragon Spawn Tracker

After a long delay due to setbacks, here is the official Dragon Spawn Tracker that I've been promising for a while now; as Dragon's are captured they will automatically show up here. This will only tell you when they've been captured and not when they spawn or will spawn.

A big thank you to Jasper199096 who has been working on this, and originally dealing with the headache that is Google Calendar API. He is also the person who has been helping with the development of the new site platform, so he's been a big help for a while now.

Weekly Maintenance 8/12 2019

We will be having our weekly routine maintenance at 7 PM PST Monday evening. During the maintenance we will be doing the following:
  • Fix for eviction notice for custom houses; rent has been increased to 100 gold
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!

Sky Island War Speculator and territory war transport officer?

Hi guys, just wondering is this only me, or everyone else to, OR is this only happen to those bottom of those sky Island map. When i go to those island territory war the War Speculator mod don't spawn and also where the Territory war transport Officer some are missing in those map when I check them? Again this could also happen because I could be in different region from the server or is this suppose to happen?

Developer Update Some coming game changes, and a new Dragon

It's been a little over a month since the last development update and I figured it was about time to write up a new one.

The most controversial change is that I will be changing expansion cards and daily reset tickets so that they cannot be transferred through the housing system. Daily reset cards have been temporarily removed from the Surprise Box of the Master (and replaced with Draconic Influence potions), but they will be re-added after the change goes into effect, as well as the addition of them back to the shell market. This is a change that has to be done due to how excessively alt farming has been abused, and continues to be abused; a quick look in the logs show people who have 60+ expansion cards or daily resets, the majority of which come from alt farming. This change will mean that the shell market can be properly equalized and that things that have been left off of it will be able to be added (potentially even a James Brown Flute).

This change will likely go into effect in September, so I will recommend using or removing any stored expansion cards or daily reset tickets in housing storage.

Secondly, I have been asked or reminded to change the Kindred Wheel quite often, and it is simply something that Hater and I both hate doing because it's more annoying than it should be. So rather than having to constantly change the Kindred Wheel, we will just be replacing the rewards with custom made gacha. One such gacha has already been completed which separates each Dragon Family or Model into it's own gacha, and rewards over 200+ dragons. 2-3 other gachas will be made to take up the remaining slots on the Kindred Wheel, so that players will still have some variety in what rewards they will get. We may also do something similar to GM event rewards, though Hater will still throw in some of his random rewards. This will also probably happen sometime in September, though it depends on when I can get it completed as I have been busy with the following update.

Now the important news... The new Dragon: Galactic Storm. This was originally just a test while Aiden got use to a workflow in creating dragon textures/recolorations, but it looked too good so we made it official. We have showed a few previews on our Discord (Join the AdeptGamer Discord Server!), but the completely dragon is currently being finished up, and we hope to have it released either this month or beginning of next month. We have also started working off a concept piece for a second Dragon, but that one is still in the early stages. I'm not going to preview the Dragon just yet as we're still working on the final details of how it looks, but it will be announced as soon as it is completed.

We have decided to start with a recolor of each model so that we can setup a foundation for retexturing all models (and figuring out our workflow), and then applying what we've learned and done to creating our own models when we finish up the tooling for that. All in all, this should be the quickest and most stable way for us to deliver new Dragons.

There are some other things that are coming or have been worked on, which has been why updates have slowed down a bit, but those are still in need of testing or some finishing touches before they are released.

Possible Dragon Costumes

This is gonna be my first thread, but if there's one thing i've always wanted was costumes for dragons, because i have seen multiple different dragon models and i've always wondered what they would look like if they had some sort of skin or costume they can have so put your suggestions down below for any costumes or dragon skins you would want for some of your dragons.

Extended Maintenance to fix Sky Islands on Monday (8/5/2019)

We've not been able to track down an easy way to resolve the issue with the server that can be done without potentially re-doing the whole Sky Island system (and even then we do not know where we'd start), so we'll be doing the next best thing, and be doing an OS re-install for the server hardware.

The only difference between the new server and the old server is that we had to choose to use Windows Server 2016, instead of 2012 which is end of life. This should hopefully resolve the weird issues we are having.

Currently the plan is late Sunday Night/Early Monday morning to turn off the server for maintenance and do a backup and then have our new hosting company perform an OS re-install of Windows for us. We will then re-provision and setup the server and turn it back on once that is completed.

This does mean that the server will be down for the majority of Monday as we cannot schedule an exact time for the OS re-install, and can only get a tentative time frame, and we cannot guarantee how long it'll take to re-provision the server.

Again sorry for the inconvenience, we were hoping there would be no issues with the migration, but apparently not even the Dragon's Prophet server can run on a better operating system without having issues :p.

Announcement Secret Apartment Bug

We are currently experiencing a bug with the Secret Apartments where only the owner can access them, and we are unsure of where the problem is being caused. The issue likely cannot be without a maintenance, so we will have to wait until Monday at the earliest to be dealt with as the unscheduled maintenance today did not solve the issue.

If the issue cannot be resolved by the next maintenance (Monday or Wednesday), I will look at an alternative for players who currently have secret apartments and we may temporarily do away with them until we can fully resolve the issue later on.

Sorry for the inconvenience, especially after a long period of down time from the server migration.

Announcement Extended Maintenance & DNS Issues

As we will be having an extended maintenance as we do a server migration (to better hardware) I figured I would make a dedicated announcement which will be updated when the migration is finished.

Note, as we are changing hardware, the IP of the server will change so the DNS to the server will be updated (which will begin updating now). It may take up to a day or so for your DNS to update.

The estimated time that the server will be ready is ~3-5AM PST, though it may run longer depending on how much is still needed.

Weekly Maintenance 7/30/2019

We will be having our weekly routine maintenance at 10 PM PST Wednesday evening. During the maintenance we will be doing the following:
  • We will be doing a server migration to new hardware which will hopefully fix some issues we've had infrequently. As a result, maintenance may be much longer than normal.
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!
