-Fixes in Server Code -2013-09-28 -

-As you might have found out we had another restart yesterday. -

-Most of the changes for this restart are under the hood: this was -a Server Code release. Meaning the server's software was -changed but not the content. Hence user-facing changes are minimal, -but we'll outline below what's relevant. -

-The restart didn't work as smoothly as expected but we -are working hard on fixing all the issues which turned up. -

-Currently known bugs that affect players:

-Other bugs:

-Fixed bugs:

-If you encounter any more bugs or problems please -report back immediately. Post on the forums -http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17729 -

-A big behavioural change has been made to the Login Server -From now on the login name is case sensitive, this means -it matters whether you write a capital letter or not. -e.g. if you registered an account name Test, and always -logged in as test, this now no longer works. You have to -log in as Test. -If you forgot how you originally registered your account, -and cannot log in, please checkout the forums -http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17737. -

-Please be aware that these code changes were necessary to move -the game forward. The server was formerly very hard to work on or -modify. This update goes a long way to fixing that and will allow the -developers to bring you new and exciting things in the future. -

-We are very sorry for the inconvenience. We have been working -as hard as we can to fix all the issues above. -

-Astral Magic Extension -2013-09-14 -

-We have a small content release today. -A witch in Tulimshar has found some daunting spells -for mages who are experienced in Astral Magic. -Talk to her about that. Maybe she is willing to teach you. -

-With this update, we have added some minor bugfixes for the -Waric script, Bluepar sprite and Wicked Mushroom sprite. -

-Announcing Code update - Introducing Dark Magic -2013-09-03 -

-First, a technical announcement. During a future -restart, TMW will start requiring your username -to exactly match the case that you signed up with. -

-Previously, this was enforced erratically, and led -to people losing access to their accounts. If, after -the update, you are unsure of the case of the account -and have already tried lowercase, UPPERCASE, and TitleCase, -please contact o11c or Frost. -

-Now, back to your regularly scheduled content news. -

-Today we have introduced two new pieces. -

-First of all, the Orum extension is finished. -Orum and his master Waric have set a new base -to mess with Sagatha. Seek them out! They -hide somewhere in the Caves north of Sagatha's -Forests. -

-Someone has seen a few new spells being used. -No one is yet sure what exactly it is but a dark aura -has been percieved somewhere north of Hurnscald. -Find it! Maybe you can gain something useful! -

-Last but not least we have to announce bad news -for the project but good news for her: -Jenalya has, after finishing the Orum extension, -resigned from her position as Lead Content -Developer. We dedicate this news to her and -wish her only the very best for her future. She -contributed beyond words and her leaving -will leave a spot we will have to work hard to fill. -Wushin and tux9th took over as Lead Content Developers -and give their best to bring quality content to you, -like Jenalya did. -

-Wushin overhauled caves, Ferry now goes to Nivalis -2013-06-29 -

-This release brings a few new additions to the game: -

-Malivox took the occasion to stop camping in the -desert and moved into a small house south of -Tulimshar. -

-Frozenbeard has expanded his ferry service in -Nivalis. You can now go between Nivalis and -the other major docks both ways. Proper docks for -Nivalis are being worked on. -

-With a ferry now serving Nivalis, Dyrin will send you -somehwere else in Kaizei instead, away from Nivalis. -

-As usual there are also a lot of smaller fixes and -changes. Thanks to everyone who reported issues -and helped fix these things! -

-Double Exp and Drop Weekend -2013-06-07 -

-This weekend we're temporarily doubling both the -experience rate and the drop rates for all monsters, -to give the chance to recover from the rollback -we had due to filesystem corruption. -

-There are also some bug fixes and new content: -

-The craftsmen of Tulimshar have finally moved to the -renovated Forge at the Northern Market, so the -Wizard's Inn is back to offering a calm stay for visitors. -

-In the woodland area the mysterious Evil Obelisk which -summons beings from the astral plane for the mundane -price of gold has drastically reduced its demands. -

-On the technical side, in case of network congestion, -you will no longer be kicked with an invalid packet error. -

-Server Crash and Rollback -2013-06-05 -

-We had a server crash, and had to restore everything from offline backup. -

-34 hours were lost, from about 17:30 (UTC) on 4 June to about 03:30 on 6 June. This affects the game, the forums, and the wiki. -

-We're going to set up hourly offsite backups of game, forum, and wiki data so that future outages are less painful. -

-Small Bugfixes -2013-04-28 -

-Easter Event and Miley's Hero -2013-03-21 -

-Today we have a content release. -

-As always there are a number of bugfixes, -but also two new quests. -

-One of them is an annual Easter event created by Pjotr Orial. -It lasts from March, 22th to April, 25th, and can be -repeated every year. -Watch out around Hurnscald for some hidden Easter Eggs! -

-The other quest is about the admiration of a little -girl in Hurnscald that sees you growing from an -inexperienced adventurer to an impressive hero. -Backstage, this was also about a great community effort. -veryape conceived of the idea for this quest and was able -to make it happen with the help of many people who were -assisting with the graphics, scripting, spell checking, -testing and giving valuable feedback. -

-Lastly, Brodomir's cave under Hurnscald has been made -easier for attracting fighters from all over the world. -

-This is a really exciting news entry! -

-Congratulations to our sister project Mana (http://manasource.org) -on winning the Liberated Pixel Cup (http://lpc.opengameart.org/content/code-judging-is-in). -

-The project can be found at http://www.sourceoftales.org/news.html -and the irc channel at irc://chat.freenode.net#sourceoftales. -

-We will undoubtedly experience an influx of both -ordinary players and potential developers since we -were linked as a related project. -

-As a developer, it is my goal and expectation that -new players can figure things out on their own. -After all, I once did - though there wasn't as -much content back then (I feel old ...). -

-As for new contributors, they will necessarily need -to coordinary with us, the developers. We're always -in need of pixel artists, have great capacity for -quest writers, and currently have need for a bit of -web development and people crazy enough to touch -insides of the server code. -

-ManaPlus - new official Client -2013-01-31 -

-ManaPlus Support -

-We have decided to support ManaPlus as an -official client alongside Mana. In fact, since -there will likely be no more releases of the -Mana client that supports TMWA (this server), -there will inevitably be a time when ManaPlus -becomes the only supported client. -

-Mana 0.6.1 will continue to receive some -support until October 2013. We have no plans -to specifically break compatibility with Mana, -but new features may not be available. -

-For older clients (whether Mana or ManaPlus), -there will be different levels of attempted -support, depending on exactly how old it is: -

-* Less than 6 months old: will not crash or - behave erratically. -* Less than 2 months old: will behave - expectedly, but might not support all features. -* Last 2 releases: will do everything, - correctly, on the main server. -* Last release, or even git, may be required - on the test server. -

-Of course, if a particular client release is -buggy, we may not be able to support it at all. -

-For more details, see http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16867. -

-ManaPlus is available at http://manaplus.evolonline.org/ -
