Entropia Universe Version Update 12.8 Release Notes
Integrated minor fixes for planet content into Entropia Universe:

  • Calypso
  • ROCKtropia
  • Arkadia
  • The Thing
  • Cyrene
  • Next Island

Changes & Improvements
  • Auction fees have been reduced by 25% for all items, and reduced by 90% for all deeds.
  • It is now possible to create custom item sets with the new action “Create Item Set”, this allows players to quickly change between different equipment sets, such as armor with a single click.
  • The scoreboard and notifications in The Hub PvP arena have been improved.
  • Quest titles are now displayed in the abandon quest dialog box.
  • The make-up mask system has been temporarily disabled in preparation for the upcoming avatar system upgrade.
  • The Space auction category has been removed.
  • A warning is now displayed when the required number of participants is not met for instance dungeons with a team size requirement.

Mothership Improvements
  • Motherships now have a "Restricted access" mode that is accessible through the Engineering terminal. When Restricted access is activated the owner of the Mothership is unable to operate the ship or remove any devices attached to it. This mode is required in order to place a Mothership deed on auction. The Restriction date can be viewed in the Mothership deed info panel.
  • Motherships now have a "Public Access" mode that is accessible through the Vehicle Guestlist.
  • Motherships now have a read-only access mode for the engineering panel, allowing others to view the current settings.
  • Motherships now display their location on the map for the deed holder.

Crafting System Improvements
A completely new and improved user interface for crafting has been implemented, which dramatically streamlines the process of constructing items.
The new interface automatically scans the avatar inventory and storage for blueprints, resources and materials, allowing items to be constructed without the need for dragging input materials into the crafting machine. Other exciting features of this new interface include-
  • A single comprehensive overview of all blueprints carried in inventory and storage, with the number of attempts possible displayed based on currently owned resources and materials.
  • Ability to customize the exact number of attempts to be made on the currently selected blueprint.
  • Ability to sell crafted items directly to the Trade Terminal, with optional thresholds for minimum/maximum condition.
  • Ability to set custom thresholds for the use of residue to improve the final condition of crafted items.
  • Integrated access to auction buy and sell orders to assist in quickly acquiring necessary input materials from the market.
  • Detailed log of each crafting session.

Bug Fixes
  • An issue causing incorrect placement of ships when entering space from Planet Calypso has been corrected.
  • An issue causing portions of the login interface to disappear at higher screen resolutions has been corrected.
  • Several MindForce animations have been corrected.
  • Unlimited Sleipnir ships now have the proper spawn cooldown.

Known Issues
  • Mentors are unable to enter the Genesis area to recruit disciples.
  • Content download requirements when entering the Genesis area are incorrect.
  • When using the Auction Orders shortcut in the new crafting interface, the order window is hidden behind the main auction window.

MindArk and the Planet Partners strive to ensure a smooth and problem-free Version Update. Nevertheless, even after extensive testing some issues may arise after release. Such issues are often addressed via mini-patches directly after a release and in subsequent patches. If you feel that the possibility of encountering minor issues or bugs directly after a Version Update affects your gameplay to an extent that Entropia Universe is not enjoyable, please wait until the mini-patches have been released and any last minute issues have been resolved.

Interesting that the auction fees go down, and on deeds by so much. This might spurn an uptick in the value of CLD's, time will tell.
 
Had about 162,5x HP, now its 162,00.... :scratch2::scratch2::mad:
 
First impressions: The crafting UI is looking nice. :) Good work MA!!

QUESTION: The Success rate now states 95% success rate. Is this a REVISED new system? Or is it still following the misleading (possibly illegal) success GREEN bar of the old crafting system?
 
My HP decreased too, re-balance? Thanks Mindark what a nice re-balancing you have done.

EDIT: clearly like a bug lol, seems like my skills are doubled

This seems to be a bug, as some have had their health increased and at least one person I have spoken to has gotten increased health.
 
My HP flatlined to the level I am at, 112, I had more than that before, seems rebalancing means zeroing you down to the start of your HP level...GRR!
 
So this loot system is yet a new system to try to kill what's left of markup? Here goes the L gun markup shit:.. what's in the next one? Ul esi?
 
Anyone checked yet if Auction minimum of 1 Ped has gone down to 75 Pec as well as % down to 3.75?

Tried to do it myself, but CTD twice.
 
LOL HP decreased but all my skills seems like doubled, I think server would be taken down again very soon.
 
Some people apparently have double skills lol

Same here, my HP have been rounded to the entire value.
It seems i had a good idea to scan my whole skills on jdegre before logging off...

Btw, a friend claims he is 395hp now... some are more lucky than others in this reballance...

some early screenshots...



I don't think I saw this message since the VU10.0
The good surprise, was that we all arrive in Cape Corinth, and not in the Southest Outpost filled of aranetrox and atrox stalkers like we used to be sent in the Project Entropia times - I think all old players will remember that :).

I logged off at Tukar, and i am redirected to Cape Corinth
This vision reminds me the 1st day in the VU10.0, without the snow falling



Then "lose connection" again / relog / and i'm back to tukar now
(this is light speed travel without using teleporters)
But i "lose connection" again, i just hope this was made this time by MA to fix the apparent problems...

Auction does not seem cheaper for me, for stacks nor items!
But I also keep crashing out too fast to have found out anything else!!!

This next login of 1 minute my aim is to check my health ;)
Oh, MA - how sweet this is once again - A new first - get ctd sound and lost connection before my graphics have even loaded.
 
My HP was knocked down to a round vlaue (108) then I got a few skill ups and it jumped to 128. With my 66 str, 71int, 107 agility and doubled skills.

Odd bug.
Glad servers are down.
 
lol . first time ever reached Level 203 Entropia Master Ranged BLP (Dmg) and 408HP , it was good be invincible for a few mobs. Thats an achievement i guess lol ..not haha, well it was good for that short time anyway haha

Is that the biggest fuckup ever or what
 
Estates now have 0 items. Items listed at "my items" though. Didnt knew they updated the estates??..
"if it aint broken, dont fix it"
 
I listed 5 items before I crashed, all low level armor pieces (F). They all were the same fee, over .53 and more depending on the markup I chose.

Makes me think that the decrease in auction fee is post sale on large MU items...

If they buggered the estates again - well... just makes me want to sell them all and be done with them - what good is having one if you can only use it 4 months out of the year.

You'll be thrilled to know that the minimum was already 50 PEC before the update.:cool:
 
i missed bugged vu so much :D
 
is finding the broker for the new Ambu mission considered a New Discovery?

Why can't MA just tell us where it is? most ppl already know where the Ambu are, why do they keep the broker location a secret
 
It have happened before.. And they didnt fix it. Im sorry for you. It´s. Well. Was???? A nice coat.

I hope im totaly wrong this time.

Oki.... was nice update.

Hasn't been this amusing since you could skill on auctioneers with no decay and buy bp's from the technician for 1 pec and sell them back for 1 ped. :laugh:
 
At least the feature that a mining finder is displayed open when an amp is attached worked fine.

Too bad I did not check my skills and HP before the servers went down.

This will take a while, have not seen such a face-plant type release for quite some time.
