New Avatar System
A new upgraded avatar system has been implemented that will bring Entropia Universe to the forefront of graphics technology in an MMO with highly detailed and fully customizable new avatars. The new avatars are significantly enhanced with over twice as many polygons as their predecessors for surprising fidelity.

Full details of the new avatar system can be viewed in this Entropia Universe Buzz article.

New Features
  • The threat level calculation for creatures has been adjusted to more accurately reflect difficulty and danger level.
  • The chance to miss has been slightly decreased when shooting at creatures.
  • The cost of ammo and decay has been removed when firing a weapon that is not aimed at a target, such as into the air or ground. (This change does not affect weapons with area of effect damage).
  • The cost to equip armor parts has been removed.
  • When in combat, the text “MISS” has been changed to “EVADE”. These messages will be further refined in a later release to more accurately indicate the actual outcome of each attack attempt and provide better information to participants.

Known Issues
  • Locked movement can occur for Body Sculptor Designers after closing the Body Sculpting UI. In such cases a relog will correct the issue.
  • Locked movement can occur when trying to enter Avatar Creation areas that are full. In such cases a relog will correct the issue.
  • Due to last minute integration issues, makeup masks will not be available in this release, Makeup masks will be activated in the release patch, expected in one week.
  • Makeup masks created during the avatar creation process are not visible in the Start Room, but will become visible again once your avatar arrives on a planet for the first destination.
  • Female makeup masks appear fully decayed when arriving on a planet for the first time. This is a visual bug only, the masks are not decayed. This issue will be fixed in an upcoming patch.

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.

This is perfect :beerchug::cheer:
 
Still takes ammo and decay to shoot at dead mobs but it is a move in the right direction
 
This is a great update indeed!

Thanks. :yay:
 
Very nice indeed. Shame about the facemasks but one week I can wait. :)

/Oz
 
NO MAKE UP! and all my mask looks bugged now, about the one side painted mask is now only one side over the whole mask.. sry can't explain better, but just look at my shop how the mask looks now! If my mask are broke, i lost a lot hour of work. I just hope they will fix that, and Make Up is back soon.

My rutuba armor looks a bit weird now, I was more like the old look.

Otherwise the new VU is a step in the right direction.

Well we can't expect them to make the system completely free, now can we ? :p

But I like that, have fired quite a bit of PED into the ground. But that's because I started using AutoUse and looking away from the screen.
 
this sounds really good.
 
Shooting rocket to air still cost.
 
Bravo Mindark!!!
 
The resulting avatar is not what I created .. looks completely differen in the colors ...

pls hurry up on this bec from what i think is we are all max but the mob is too much or "nerf"
 
This is great news for hunters.

But the downside is that it decreases cost for pirates.

"ALMOST HIT"
"TOTAL MISS"
"NEENER NEENER"
"STOP SHOOTING IT'S POINTLESS"
"MOVE CLOSER OR GET A ML35 FFS"
"WHAT LOUSY CRAFTER SOLD YOU THAT SHITTY GUN?"

Wtf, this actually made MA a lot of money(IMHO)... I cant believe they would do this... :scratch2::laugh:
 
in other words, they're going to be taking it off somewhere else :p

Edit:

Probably here's how. From people Depoing to fix their Avatars at beauticians
