You may have noticed loads of client patches, sorry for anyone having trouble with these, but we keep the client download files up to date as fallback ~


Beginning with the next maintenance we’re going to purge names of unused characters every maintenance.
This refers to any character below level 200 and not being logged in in the past 90 days.

Client

We’ve been looking into possible solutions regarding the directx9 white boxes/textures glitches and crashes. Sadly we didn’t find a perfect fit solution yet, but we still want to provide the options we checked and are checking.

We added Directx 9 Wrapper to our custom patches list.

  • dgvoodoo2: no glitches, smoother, more vulnerable to crashes (this might be depending on your system)
  • dxvk (Vulkan): no glitches, less crashes, breaks ability to type any non-english characters

Feel free to try these out and give us feedback on this topic ~

Events

  • :light_bulb:Event messages except countdown will no longer be announced to everyone. All other messages will be posted on the map the event takes place only (we will add an option to opt out from all event messages later)

Instances/Dungeons/Quests

  • :light_bulb:Varmundt Depth Level 1: increased exp gained from monsters
  • Added custom instance Alice Twisted Madness
    Note: Your feedback is welcome. Tell us what you love and hate about it so we can consider this for any future custom content.

Items/Item handling

  • :light_bulb:Crafted Stone is now tradable
  • :light_bulb:Costume Black Valkyrie Helm is now more black

Can I just say, thank you SO much for the event notification change. I’m legitimately happy lol.

@Muh Ah, it would be great if we could just get the Event Announcements only and not the winners, etc., for those of us who don’t participate at the time they’re active. Otherwise we will have to just memorize the timing of all the events? That is no problem ultimately but I do like the announcement that the Event is active at least.

@R_Zoro It says “except countdown”. The only thing that changed is the winner notifications.

Not sure what you mean Neku. Definitely would be nice to get an Opt-out option for finding rare stuff/cards in-game. I truly do not care for folks learning what I’ve found, etc.
