[MindBuster]

The Entropia Universe has been updated with VU 8.3.1. It contains the following enhancements (amongst others):

Certain avatars that appeared gaunt after VU 8.3 have now had their complexion restored.

A new option for 1024x768 widescreen has been added to the Client Loader.
The Nymphtown/New Oxford teleport link has been brought back online.

Residue can now be sold in the Auction.

All paint colors can now be sold in the Auction.

The Active Event window is now available for all event participants, regardless of when you log into the event. Prize items can now also be seen from the Active Event UI.

The 'previous' and 'next' buttons in the Auction can now be used to go from the first page to last and from last to first.

Walking in mid-air in certain New Oxford locations has been revoked.

Reserved MindArk times in the Event System have been altered to display UTC time.

The Enter key has been enabled again for easy access when logging in with the Gold Card.

Very nice, now i can run 16:10 so it doesnt look distorted

Now we just need the resolution change, but maybe that is a bigger problem, depending on the way mobs get hit (the hitbox) there shouldnt be advantages in running other resolutions than others, it should be equal for all ofcourse, dunno if that is the problem since resolution change hasnt been implemented yet.

I think that their main problem is the HUD. They would have to work on a new one.

Yes where is:

Naah, that's an easy one, it's just a tedious work, resizing all the icons and the hud itself, but to be done in all resolutions available, then just show the hud that matches the users resolution.
Lotsa tedious work but easily done.

But better yet, make a 3D hud that uses models, but looks 2D.

Nice
Relative fast and usefull bugfixes and updates .

I submitted this not so long ago to support, and like all my cases this is again incredible coincidence but I'm starting to be a HUGE fan of their support system. Imagine that

edit:: and as PE laws define, there's always a twitch ... it doesnt expand widescreen to 1440*900. So MA support, could you maybe please ... thanks

 

[Etopia]

They have been revamping the interface, Friend List, Item info, the Event creation interface was already implemented with the new looks.

The bottom bar, the quick bar, the options panel, terminals interface, etc, still have the old looks, i don't know if they are going to change them meanwhile or are going to wait for the big update.

I'm looking forward to the big one.
I hope that by them we will get more graphics options.

This is a nice update overall.

Very happy to see this one, it was beginning to get very infuriating already

Yay! It took me 4 days (okay, so maybe I exagerate just slightly) to get to the Billton Towers estates on page 90-something a couple days ago.

Thank you MA for the quick updates and fixes!!!!

Tell me about it I just hope they re-enabled enter aswell, as that annoys me having to click-type-then click again

 

[Primax]

MA seems to have listened to what people were saying and has acted on it quickly!

I've scanned my entire brain for acronym recognition and haven't come up with anything that would even slightly apply to entropia. lol What the heck is AA?

[rotten ice]

One of the older problems on your graphics card that could cause PE to crash (or mine anyway ) but now I managed to turn it back on and edit the setting from CL aswell

I like this minupdate MA you get a gold STAR

Hehe I have a widescreen monitor on my laptop (1920x1200 = 16:10) and last night I saw my real avatar self in action for the first time after 16 months of playing Well, it'll take time to get used to it
