(10/03 13:09:53) Brooketh: We are a friendly club of Ahyoheek enthusiasts, far less "competitive" than our name would imply. We aim for a relaxed, casual hour of playing and conversation that is fun for all. We welcome you regardless of skill level. If you don't know how to play, we can quickly teach you; or you may simply wish to hang out and observe.
(10/03 13:10:10) Brooketh: We use a combination of voice and text chat. You don't need to use a mic, but you should at least have sound enabled so you can hear us.
(10/03 13:10:19) Brooketh: We do hope to see you there!
(10/03 13:10:26) Brooketh: Are there any questions?

(10/03 13:11:25) [applause]
(10/03 13:11:34) 8rus claps
(10/03 13:11:40) *Jodok*: Shorah everyone, The Open Cave shard is very happy to announce the new TOC-Elysium Project.
(10/03 13:11:41) [applause]
(10/03 13:11:57) *Jodok*: *** TOC-Elysium Presentation ***
(10/03 13:12:10) *Jodok*: TOC-Elysium is an exact replica of MOULa, based on what the H'URU Team shares on their GitHub. Obviously hosted on our TOC Server.
(10/03 13:12:33) *Jodok*: No cheat KI-commands there to save you from falling with a respawn, nothing like fast reaching of spawn points , no ability to use xyz or jump commands or those which links you to your Hood or anywhere else. There aren't modified ages like City of Dimensions but there is a wonderful crisp and clear Graphics.
(10/03 13:12:50) *Jodok*: Registration for an account via our official website the-open-cave.net is already possible. The Server will be accessible on October 5th at 12:00 PM (UTC+2).
(10/03 13:13:03) *Jodok*: Are you ready to redo your URU Journey? Together or alone the Journey re-begins from scratch.
(10/03 13:13:14) Korov'ev: (4:00 KIT)
(10/03 13:13:16) *Jodok*: Just to anticipate some probable questions, the normal Ki-commands you are used in MOULa for the emotes are still available.
(10/03 13:13:32) *Jodok*: All Fan Ages you find in MOULa will be in TOC-Elysium but keep in mind that we always update after the official release on MOULa.
(10/03 13:13:44) *Jodok*: TOC-Moul, TOC-Tpots and TOC-Elysium need each an account to access the game.
(10/03 13:13:56) *Jodok*: Informations can be found on our Homepage where we separated each game in a menu where you will find all you need to start. You can also ask for help on our Forum or on our discord both accessible from our webpage.
(10/03 13:14:09) *Jodok*: Links :
(10/03 13:14:20) *Jodok*: Website: the-open-cave.net
(10/03 13:14:32) *Jodok*: Forum: https://forum.the-open-cave.net/
(10/03 13:14:43) *Jodok*: Discord : https://discord.gg/u9jc22UFaN
(10/03 13:14:55) *Jodok*: Thx for your attention, are there questions?
(10/03 13:14:58) Mevvah raises her hand
(10/03 13:15:02) [applause]
(10/03 13:15:02) Calum Traveler wants to ask a question...
(10/03 13:15:04) *Jodok*: yes please
(10/03 13:15:18) Mevvah: So am i to understand there's no "panic-llink" to Relto there?
(10/03 13:15:44) *Jodok*: there is indeed but no warping or spawn commands...
(10/03 13:15:55) *Jodok*: if you fall you will return to relto like in mOULa
(10/03 13:15:58) caver1: What OSs are needed?
(10/03 13:16:16) *Jodok*: for now Win7 upwards
(10/03 13:16:25) *Jodok*: calum had a uestion...
(10/03 13:16:41) Calum Traveler: yeah, sort of a multi pronged thing ill poke you about later on more about but for now
(10/03 13:16:59) Prad: The KI commans which you have on normal TOC server are like the bot commands from Mir-o-Bot in nature, but yet different. Elysium is free of such built-in bot commands.
(10/03 13:17:27) *Jodok*: other questions I missed perhaps?
(10/03 13:17:27) Calum Traveler: it sounds like you guys have been working on this for a while? Have you considered reaching out to OU to get this work also migrated to the main MOULa server?
(10/03 13:17:54) Calum Traveler: rarified and i have been continually running into annoying roadbumps in our attempts to get it working.
(10/03 13:17:57) *Jodok*: we're currently working on other things so we haven't really thought about no
(10/03 13:18:04) Thumbs up from Calum Traveler
(10/03 13:18:04) *Jodok*: but a good Idea
(10/03 13:18:31) Dreamer3: What are the main differences between Elysium and traditional MOULA?
(10/03 13:18:33) Calum Traveler: no other qs from me at this time :)
(10/03 13:18:38) *Jodok*: well calum you can contact us on our discord
(10/03 13:18:48) Calum Traveler: i shall indeed reach out
(10/03 13:19:02) *Jodok*: the main difference is the graphics and techy stuff in the background
(10/03 13:19:27) *Jodok*: let it summarize to "it's newer than moula somehow"
(10/03 13:19:31) Prad: Elysium runs with an H'Uru client (on a MOSS server) - that essentially the main difference.
(10/03 13:19:37) *Jodok*: hope this answers the question....
(10/03 13:19:40) 8rus has a question now
(10/03 13:19:55) Dreamer3 says ok
(10/03 13:20:06) *Jodok*: I knew it, I wanted this to be short but yes please last question
(10/03 13:20:29) *Jodok*: 8rus?
(10/03 13:20:32) 8rus: by techy stuff in the background, does this include server hosts and potential longevity of existence?
(10/03 13:20:56) *Jodok*: yeah exactly
(10/03 13:21:17) Mevvah: (are we worried about MOULa's longevity?
(10/03 13:21:21) *Jodok*: but also TOC needs to be founded like MOUla every cent counts at the end of the month...
(10/03 13:21:30) Prad: (as for OS: I think the client also needs a 64bit Windows - no 32bit win support ... when it's similar to the TOC client where that's the case)
(10/03 13:21:52) PodHopper: No other questions in my queue.
(10/03 13:21:59) *Jodok*: ok other q's pls per PM
(10/03 13:22:02) *Jodok* bows

(10/03 13:23:36) Korov'ev: In Deep Island, last month we (tried to) visited Ahrkane, by Ekimmai, along with old versions of Cass and Fahets, by Tweek; then we looked behind the courtain in Ria, by Rich, and tried to catch the UFO in Hayal, by Corvus & Race.
(10/03 13:23:54) Korov'ev: In the Open Cave, we undertook the Path of the Shell, in Er'cana and Ahnonay.
(10/03 13:24:07) Korov'ev: What's coming this month? Tomorrow, in the Open Cave, we'll finally find the truth about Ahnonay, and check if the pellet cake was a lie. After that, we'll do the full tour of the City of Dimensions!
(10/03 13:24:28) [applause]
(10/03 13:24:31) Korov'ev: In Deep Island, we'll visit some ages of J'Kla: Noidrocca, Cidoirep, Nilodnam. Then we'll dock at Zefora by Justintime, and see where we'll end up. Don't eat the burger!
(10/03 13:24:51) Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, in Deep Island starting in the only hood there (use "/hood"); in the Open Cave, starting in the Fan Ages Touring Club's Hood.
(10/03 13:25:05) Korov'ev: There's also an (uncommented) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort

(10/03 13:32:18) shokhootahn Rehn: Today, we will contiinue the story of the restoration as seen through the eyes of an explorer, albeit a fictional one. It was written by the explorer Janai, and published on the mystonline forums in 2009.
(10/03 13:32:39) rarified: Probably Jodok
(10/03 13:32:43) shokhootahn Rehn: If anyone has contact with Janai on the surface, please let her know that she is inivited to hear her story performed live. :-)
(10/03 13:33:25) *Jodok*: ?
(10/03 13:33:33) shokhootahn Rehn: There are two more stories to the current story.
(10/03 13:33:37) rarified: Leakage from DM
(10/03 13:34:19) shokhootahn Rehn: That ill be followed byreturning to the events of the current Restoration.
(10/03 13:34:47) shokhootahn Rehn: *will
(10/03 13:35:45) shokhootahn Rehn: Then, at the end of the month, ill be the bi-annual Bahro Glyph Tour!
(10/03 13:35:58) [applause]
(10/03 13:36:02) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night covers the entire 10,000-year history of the D'ni plus all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D'ni!
(10/03 13:36:28) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(10/03 13:36:37) shokhootahn Rehn: Original Story Night is held at 23:30 KI time on Saturday night. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 23:00 KI time.
(10/03 13:36:51) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night - Europe is held at 14:00 KI time on Saturday afternoon. We start gathering at the hood's fountain starting at 13:30 KI time except for AGM Saturdays, when it starts at 14:30 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(10/03 13:37:02) shokhootahn Rehn: Lately, it's been starting at 14:30 on AGM Saturdays. :-)
(10/03 13:37:13) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(10/03 13:37:21) shokhootahn Rehn: (last-minute cancelations, etc.)
(10/03 13:37:32) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to apprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. :-)
(10/03 13:37:47) shokhootahn Rehn: Minasunda is one of those members, as she runs the announcements channel on Discord.
(10/03 13:37:56) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(10/03 13:38:08) shokhootahn Rehn: r'Tayrtahn announces the start of Story Night through buddy chat. If you would like to receive the announcements, please send r'T a KI mail (with your KI number included in the text) and he'll add you to his buddies list. His KI number is 58324. KI mails do not identify the KI number of the sender. Though the sender is added to the Recent's folder, it is still a good idea to add it to the body of the text. :-)
(10/03 13:38:24) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(10/03 13:38:33) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(10/03 13:38:43) PodHopper: No questions in the queue.

(10/03 13:40:21) Calum Traveler: the latest post was on the 17th of last month,
(10/03 13:40:37) Calum Traveler: there was a survey, and results came in,
(10/03 13:40:51) Calum Traveler: https://mysterium.net/2026/09/winter-is-comin-wait-wrong-ip-the-mysterium-fall-update/
(10/03 13:41:13) Mevvah starts to laugh
(10/03 13:41:15) Calum Traveler: there's the winner of a creativity prompt
(10/03 13:41:17) Calum Traveler: annnnd
(10/03 13:41:19) Emor D'ni Lap: TL;CC

(10/03 13:42:38) Calum Traveler: next year is a Spokane Year, so we know theyre gonna need the support!
(10/03 13:42:46) Calum Traveler: that's all on Mysterium for the moment.
(10/03 13:42:51) Calum Traveler clears throat
(10/03 13:42:53) Calum Traveler: cavern news.
(10/03 13:43:23) Calum Traveler: if you're on the Minkata shards, youll notice Chiso Preniv finally got some new books on the Ring Podiums,
(10/03 13:43:38) 8rus rejoices
(10/03 13:43:50) Calum Traveler: Mahrngestoy, finally, has its main link upstairs to be added, and alongside it, Rigilahs, another Pod Age from the Pod Age RAD competition
(10/03 13:43:59) Calum Traveler: Rigilahs has entered testing just recently,
(10/03 13:44:00) Ro"Jethhe: Minkata Shard or Minkata Alpha?
(10/03 13:44:05) Calum Traveler: Minkata Alpha,
(10/03 13:44:20) Calum Traveler: im not certain on release schedules or timing,
(10/03 13:44:32) rarified: TBD
(10/03 13:44:34) Calum Traveler: so dont take the current order of the books available in chiso there as gospel
(10/03 13:44:43) Calum Traveler: theyre just the order i got things put in and working ^^;
(10/03 13:44:53) Calum Traveler: that said!
(10/03 13:45:03) Calum Traveler: i have gotten the Tiam and Elonin Bookshelf Books working!
(10/03 13:45:23) Calum Traveler: thanks to a combined effort from dpogue and Adam, putting up with my questions about node trees
(10/03 13:45:39) Calum Traveler: those two books should now *properly* be shareable from the bookshelf without lockups
(10/03 13:45:56) Calum Traveler: if you're on MInkata Alpha, please grab a buddy, go to Chiso, and check out the Tiam and Elonin books on the Bookshelf,
(10/03 13:46:07) Calum Traveler: share a book, and make sure the person you shared with links through successfully!
(10/03 13:46:39) Calum Traveler: also, because this success is due in part to a change to an existing python,
(10/03 13:47:00) Calum Traveler: *Please* also try to do a regression check with any other existing Share-Book Setup that already is in the game
(10/03 13:47:05) Calum Traveler: from Cyan setups to fan age setups,
(10/03 13:47:23) Calum Traveler: nothing should be broken, but we'd like to make sure that nothing DID break because of an unforeseen unique setup somewhere.
(10/03 13:48:18) Calum Traveler: additionally, im working on further refinements to Chiso Preniv's textures for low VRAM machines,
(10/03 13:48:49) Calum Traveler: currently ive finished reUVMapping the basement's bookshelves, compressing multiple redundant repetitive textures into a single texture image,
(10/03 13:49:00) Calum Traveler: i still need to remap the books upstairs,
(10/03 13:49:27) Calum Traveler: im trying to keep the patterns the same where i can, but i am taking the opportunity to do a little common sense reorganizing to break up some repetitive patterns ^^;
(10/03 13:49:54) Calum Traveler: other than that... hm...
(10/03 13:50:19) Calum Traveler: Im hoping to get the final pieces i Need for Reischu Apartment and Pod12 for their inevitable releases, sometime by end of year, hopefully,
(10/03 13:50:35) Calum Traveler: but given how reality has been mean on the 'taking time away from people who are working on these things' front...
(10/03 13:51:17) Calum Traveler: anyways, their phase 1s should be relatively easy to finish hammering out,
(10/03 13:51:30) Calum Traveler: speaking of Phases, I'm hoping to get the Descent Build back from Tweek this month.
(10/03 13:51:47) Calum Traveler: he, ah, has suffered some significan real life issues that have taken away a lot of time and motivation for age building as of late,
(10/03 13:52:09) Calum Traveler: i wont go into details because personal privacy,
(10/03 13:52:14) rarified: RL is unkind
(10/03 13:52:19) Calum Traveler: yeah, very unkind.
(10/03 13:52:26) Hey, man!: what happened?
(10/03 13:52:32) Mevvah: None of our beeswax
(10/03 13:52:53) Calum Traveler: assuming I get the build back from Tweek this month, I'm going to do a final quick push to Mink Alpha, so we can hammer out any final details that may need hammering,
(10/03 13:53:01) Calum Traveler: and then, ideally, Descent Phase 1 will fully release sometime this year.
(10/03 13:53:05) Mevvah: (note to self - give Tweek a lean next time he's around)
(10/03 13:53:22) Hey, man!: ew
(10/03 13:53:40) [applause]
(10/03 13:53:46) Calum Traveler: i think it goes without saying, we've all been expecting Phase 1 of Descent for a long while
(10/03 13:53:55) caver1: :-)
(10/03 13:53:59) Calum Traveler: and it's definitely taken way longer than ANYONE has ever expected, be they fan or Cyan
(10/03 13:54:26) Calum Traveler: ive personally come to the opinion that the universe *really* just doesnt want us doing certain things with uru in any expedient manner.
(10/03 13:54:31) Calum Traveler: but as Watchers Words Says...
(10/03 13:54:36) Calum Traveler: The Stone Cutter is Patient.
(10/03 13:54:38) rarified: You've been a rock made of nara.
(10/03 13:54:44) shokhootahn Rehn thinks its better late than never
(10/03 13:54:44) caver1: Thanks to age builders!
(10/03 13:54:52) Emor D'ni Lap: It's the nature of most all-volunteer projects
(10/03 13:55:03) Calum Traveler: oh, im not even talking about the volunteer side of things, emor,
(10/03 13:55:07) Calum Traveler: im talking about URU as a whole
(10/03 13:55:11) Calum Traveler: the repeated cancelations?
(10/03 13:55:21) Calum Traveler: every time things start ramping up in speed there's a sudden roadblock.
(10/03 13:55:29) Calum Traveler: and all momentum goes flying off a cliff.
(10/03 13:55:41) Hey, man!: wow man
(10/03 13:55:43) Calum Traveler: seems like a pattern to me, and to the universe, I say:
(10/03 13:55:55) Dreamer3: I mean, the whole project is kinda built on a giant burial mound . . .
(10/03 13:55:55) Calum Traveler: NAH. We'll get it done eventually. Just stop being tedious about it.
(10/03 13:56:15) uru348: Anything else to roll over?
(10/03 13:56:21) Calum Traveler: hm
(10/03 13:56:26) Ro"Jethhe: CT thank you for the working Nexus in the Descent.
(10/03 13:56:31) rarified: Zaphod Beeblebrox: "The secret to landing is to throw yourself at the ground and miss."
(10/03 13:56:46) Calum Traveler: the nexus book was a long time coming, Ro,
(10/03 13:56:50) Emor D'ni Lap: flying
(10/03 13:57:12) Calum Traveler: i cant think of anything else that's of import at the moment, so ill take questions
(10/03 13:57:16) Ro"Jethhe: Yes since the Great Shaft has a barrier.
(10/03 13:57:16) 8rus claps for a Nexus book
(10/03 13:57:18) Hey, man!: is that hitchhikers guide?

(10/03 13:57:50) PodHopper: does Calum know what the empty podium at the bottom of the staircase is for?
(10/03 13:58:04) PodHopper: what age was that about?
(10/03 13:58:05) Calum Traveler: ...empty podium at the bottom of which staircase?
(10/03 13:58:13) Ro"Jethhe: The one in Chiso
(10/03 13:58:18) Calum Traveler: which staircase?

(10/03 13:59:01) 8rus: (whatever podium it is, pls say releeshahn)
(10/03 13:59:02) Ro"Jethhe: yes
(10/03 13:59:11) Ro"Jethhe: no way!
(10/03 13:59:12) Calum Traveler: that empty podium is a work in progress holder for a bunch of flyers that should be clickable
(10/03 13:59:22) Calum Traveler: i haven't gotten a chance to do the writeup for it yet,
(10/03 13:59:34) Ro"Jethhe: very handy
(10/03 13:59:36) Calum Traveler: Korov'ev had some suggestions but ive been a bit busy with retexturing to get to work on it.
(10/03 14:00:02) Ro"Jethhe thanks you
(10/03 14:00:04) Calum Traveler: so the empty podium is just there to hold flyers and stuff, maybe a book if i just get lazy about it.
(10/03 14:00:21) Calum Traveler: or, well, texture conscious
(10/03 14:00:31) Ro"Jethhe: glad it wasn't an ash tray
(10/03 14:00:33) Calum Traveler: im going to be trying NOT to add too many large textures for a good while,
(10/03 14:00:46) Calum Traveler: aforementioned book texture consilidation.
(10/03 14:00:49) Calum Traveler: any other questions?
