(07/03 13:02:32)Korov’ev: Shorah, and welcome to the 135th All Guilds Meeting!

(07/03 13:02:39)Korov’ev: In the D’ni calendar today is Leesahn 1, 9677, and the time is 15:1:19

(07/03 13:02:41)ShilohOBrien waves hello

(07/03 13:03:03)Korov’ev: If there’s anyone new: welcome to the Cavern! You picked the best time to visit 🙂

(07/03 13:03:10)Korov’ev: As usual, I’ll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:

(07/03 13:03:31)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(07/03 13:04:09)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(07/03 13:04:16)Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.

(07/03 13:04:23)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(07/03 13:04:27)Calum Traveler: (2 didnt make it)

(07/03 13:04:32)Korov’ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers’ site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(07/03 13:04:38)ShilohOBrien: D’ni math?

(07/03 13:04:40)Korov’ev: weird

(07/03 13:04:46)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(07/03 13:05:03)Korov’ev: Have you visited Chiso Preniv recently? 😉

(07/03 13:05:09)Calum Traveler nods his head

(07/03 13:05:11)Korov’ev: More on that later…

(07/03 13:05:20)ShilohOBrien: Yep!

(07/03 13:05:25)Patrick Dulebohn grins

(07/03 13:05:38)Korov’ev: First, let’s hear about upcoming events in the Cavern, from Minasunda!

(07/03 13:06:12)Minasunda: shorah 🙂 I want to be brief.

(07/03 13:06:23)Minasunda: On July 16 at 19 KI, marker missions will take place in MOULa as part of this year’s Mysterium.

(07/03 13:06:35)Minasunda: I know it is very late for Europeans – or rather very early 🙂

(07/03 13:06:46)Minasunda: But it would still be nice if we could show how alive our cavern is.

(07/03 13:07:02)Minasunda: The meeting point is the plaza in Aegura. From around 16 KI Kelly C. will be waiting for you there, who will also tell you the number of the games.

(07/03 13:07:16)Minasunda: You can get the marker game from Mir-O-Bot (KI 32319) or, if he is not present, from MinBot (KI 9292763).

(07/03 13:07:29)Minasunda: You can get it by sending the PM “sendme [number]” to one of the bots.

(07/03 13:07:45)Minasunda: On July 24th from 11-13 KI there will be a doorrun event planned by Nosila.

(07/03 13:08:00)Minasunda: I don’t know any details about this.

(07/03 13:08:11)Minasunda: Please pay attention to the corresponding announcements on Discord and Facebook.

(07/03 13:08:22)Minasunda: further is planned for August a Caribbean Night with hot music, D’ni Day of Dance with a small show by the Nulp Dance Group for September and the Halloween party for October.

(07/03 13:08:35)Minasunda: But more details about this event at the next AGM ;))

(07/03 13:08:48)Minasunda: That was it on my part. Thank you for your attention.

(07/03 13:08:57)Minasunda: any questions ?

(07/03 13:08:58)cameo: ty mina

(07/03 13:09:10)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Minasunda.

(07/03 13:09:10)Korov’ev: [Minasunda] anything to announce?

(07/03 13:09:21)Korov’ev: oops 🙂

(07/03 13:09:24)Ro”Jethhe: ?

(07/03 13:09:27)Minasunda thanks you

(07/03 13:09:39)Minasunda shrugs

(07/03 13:09:41)Minasunda: lol

(07/03 13:09:42)Eternal Seeker: lol

(07/03 13:09:44)Emor D’ni Lap applauds Minasunda

(07/03 13:09:46)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Minasunda.

(07/03 13:09:47)Korov’ev: [Minasunda] no – Just in case you don’t announce the marker missions for the mystery :)) Are you going to do it?

(07/03 13:09:57)Korov’ev: aaaaah

(07/03 13:09:59)Minasunda: ???

(07/03 13:10:05)Calum Traveler: >>;; queue got logged weird lol

(07/03 13:10:21)Korov’ev: I’ll answer:

(07/03 13:10:46)Korov’ev: You will need to have your KI calibrated to play the marker missins

(07/03 13:11:21)Korov’ev: There’s a tutorial at https://mysterium.net/marker-missions

(07/03 13:11:35)PodHopper: speachless Kor?

(07/03 13:11:37)MindWalker is a bit puzzled…

(07/03 13:11:49)Calum Traveler: …tech issues?

(07/03 13:11:49): [ Auto Shout Disabled ]

(07/03 13:11:50)ShilohOBrien goes WTF?

(07/03 13:11:51): [ Auto Shout Enabled ]

(07/03 13:11:58)Korov’ev: can you read me?

(07/03 13:11:58)Eternal Seeker: someone has to reboot Kor

(07/03 13:12:02)Calum Traveler: can now

(07/03 13:12:03)Rabbit is a bit puzzled…

(07/03 13:12:04)Minasunda: yes

(07/03 13:12:06)ShilohOBrien: Kor went mute

(07/03 13:12:10)Kayara: No

(07/03 13:12:13)Korov’ev: ok

(07/03 13:12:14)Ro”Jethhe thinks Korov’ev just had a ‘Senior Moment’.

(07/03 13:12:19)Rabbit starts to laugh

(07/03 13:12:25)cameo starts to laugh

(07/03 13:12:27)Patrick Dulebohn: Nah, he was checking his notes is all.

(07/03 13:12:27)Korov’ev: You will need to have your KI calibrated to play the marker missions

(07/03 13:12:35)Korov’ev: There’s a tutorial at https://mysterium.net/marker-missions

(07/03 13:12:38)Kayara: Well now I can read you but nothing that came before “can you read me”

(07/03 13:12:44)ShilohOBrien: Should we unplug him and wait 10 sec before we plug him in again?

(07/03 13:12:54)Rabbit: yes

(07/03 13:13:00)Rabbit: definitely

(07/03 13:13:02)Korov’ev: chat bug is back

(07/03 13:13:05)Theo: 20

(07/03 13:13:07)Patrick Dulebohn: Now now…Kor is a person, not a PC.

(07/03 13:13:09)Patrick Dulebohn grins

(07/03 13:13:14)Rabbit: : )

(07/03 13:13:17)ShilohOBrien: Are you SURE?!

(07/03 13:13:30)Korov’ev: And like every month, next week there’ll be a Cavern Tour,

(07/03 13:13:37)Korov’ev: on Saturday, July 10, at 10:00 KIT, starting in Cavern Tour’s Hood.

(07/03 13:13:38)cameo: korov. are you a bot?

(07/03 13:13:45)Korov’ev: The host, Larry LeDeay, uses his Twitch channel for the presentation, so you will need to keep a browser or the app open in the background: http://twitch.tv/LWF58

(07/03 13:13:53)Korov’ev: Videos will be available for two weeks after the tour. The stream will be simulcasted on Facebook and Youtube.

(07/03 13:14:01)Korov’ev: Mir-o-Bot (KI# 32319) is usually employed for special effects and long-distance travel (and to avoid stairs).

(07/03 13:14:30)Korov’ev: Now, some updates on the Age Restoration Project: let’s hear from Patrick!

(07/03 13:14:42)Adam {Hoikas} claps his trolls

(07/03 13:14:43)ShilohOBrien: WOOT!!!!

(07/03 13:15:07)Patrick Dulebohn: I should note that Kor is NOT a bot…unless he’s doing some work for me. The guy can translate D’ni like a machine!

(07/03 13:15:09)Patrick Dulebohn grins

(07/03 13:15:14)Patrick Dulebohn: Happy weekend, everyone! And of course, a happy Fourth of July weekend to our explorers here in the United States.

(07/03 13:15:29)Patrick Dulebohn: I’m here once again to update you on the progress of our explorer-led restoration as the work continues elsewhere.

(07/03 13:15:33)cameo: 🙂

(07/03 13:15:40)Patrick Dulebohn: Yesterday, we were finally able to finish Vothol’s new structural supports, and as such, I had the Linking Book placed in Chiso.

(07/03 13:15:43)ShilohOBrien plots to do a Turing Test on Kor.

(07/03 13:15:53)Rabbit starts to laugh

(07/03 13:15:56)Patrick Dulebohn: You may now explore the gallery at any time. This is the latest location here in the cavern open to explorers since the Pub last August.

(07/03 13:16:12)Patrick Dulebohn: This location comes with a few mysteries as well, particularly with its location.

(07/03 13:16:23)Patrick Dulebohn: As yet, we haven’t exactly been able to pinpoint where it is in relation to the rest of D’ni…just that it’s IN the cavern somewhere.

(07/03 13:16:36)Patrick Dulebohn: KI coordinates are either scrambled or non-existent. All we know for sure is it’s in a place the Great Zero beam can’t reach.

(07/03 13:16:45)ShilohOBrien: Schrodinger’s Gallery?

(07/03 13:16:52)Patrick Dulebohn: Heh.

(07/03 13:16:54)Rabbit grins

(07/03 13:16:56)Patrick Dulebohn: We’d send a boat out, but the surrounding rock formations make that incredibly dangerous.

(07/03 13:16:59)Korov’ev: maybe they’re scrambled on purpose!

(07/03 13:17:07)Calum Traveler: beam doesnt seem to go past ae’gura in my experience, so it could be anywhere, really.

(07/03 13:17:08)Patrick Dulebohn: It’s definitely not a clear path like the ferry terminal in Ae’gura.

(07/03 13:17:16)rarified: Egg room level 2

(07/03 13:17:22)Patrick Dulebohn: Truly amazing that its original discoverer, Rustee, was able to find it at all!

(07/03 13:17:35)Kayara: Did you consider sending a drone?

(07/03 13:17:46)Patrick Dulebohn: We *believe* it was a place to house some of the most priceless and valuable D’ni artworks, and the secretive nature of the location was for security reasons…but that’s still just speculation at this point.

(07/03 13:17:47)Rabbit: or a bahro?

(07/03 13:18:04)Calum Traveler: it was almost certainly GOW owned at some point

(07/03 13:18:08)Calum Traveler: what with all the pen imagery

(07/03 13:18:09)ShilohOBrien: Alas, the bahro are not taxis

(07/03 13:18:11)Patrick Dulebohn: Indeed.

(07/03 13:18:15)Patrick Dulebohn: In any case, feel free to visit Vothol Gallery and its preserved artwork when you get a chance. It’s currently the leftmost Book on the pedestals in Chiso, next to Tre’bivdil’s Book.

(07/03 13:18:38)Patrick Dulebohn: Now on to new business…

(07/03 13:18:51)Patrick Dulebohn: After consulting our structural engineers…who have been pulling double-duty with both Vothol and what I’m about to discuss…and getting some valuable notes from members of the DRC…

(07/03 13:19:03)Patrick Dulebohn: I am now happy to announce that an effort to restore the entirety of the Great Shaft and the full path to D’ni is officially underway!

(07/03 13:19:11)Thumbs up from Calum Traveler

(07/03 13:19:14)Adi: YAY

(07/03 13:19:16)Ro”Jethhe is amazed!

(07/03 13:19:17)Jules Lavisham: Oh excellent!

(07/03 13:19:28)Claidi Song: Yes!

(07/03 13:19:32)Patrick Dulebohn: We do know that a lot of you have been able to make it to one of the rest areas there, but the path was cut off at both ends by structural damage.

(07/03 13:19:46)Patrick Dulebohn: It doesn’t help that a strong series of quakes in or around 2005 caused even further damage to other areas.

(07/03 13:19:59)Patrick Dulebohn: Nevertheless, we remain determined to open up as much of the walking path to D’ni as we can.

(07/03 13:20:04)ShilohOBrien: Thank

(07/03 13:20:11)Rabbit: yesssss!

(07/03 13:20:13)Patrick Dulebohn: If all goes well, anyone can start from the surface and work their way down directly to the cavern. I know it’s been a popular dream of most people here to retrace the steps of Aitrus and his family.

(07/03 13:20:15)ShilohOBrien: Thank the Maker for Relto books.

(07/03 13:20:34)Patrick Dulebohn: Plus, it’s fascinating to see the methods the D’ni used to push their way towards the surface before efforts were ultimately abandoned. The shaft itself is really quite an impressive structural marvel, so it’ll be good to have people able to see it in all its glory.

(07/03 13:20:56)Patrick Dulebohn: There WILL be rules in place for your safety, of course. First and foremost, nobody is to attempt ascending or descending the Great Shaft by foot unless they have a Relto Book.

(07/03 13:21:11)Patrick Dulebohn: While we have yet to decipher the Age itself thanks to Yeesha’s…shall we say…unique Writing style…it *does* serve as a handy means of keeping one’s self safe from harm…or in this case, dangerous falls.

(07/03 13:21:28)Calum Traveler: we dont want another Phil, folks.

(07/03 13:21:30)Patrick Dulebohn: Others are more common sense, such as proceeding carefully, no running, no littering…

(07/03 13:21:33)Calum Traveler: keep your reltobooks on hand 😉

(07/03 13:21:39)ShilohOBrien: In case of emergency, use Relto.

(07/03 13:21:43)rarified: No scissors.

(07/03 13:21:44)Patrick Dulebohn: Think of it like the rules when you’re at a public pool.

(07/03 13:21:45)Korov’ev: no jumping down… wait….

(07/03 13:21:47)Patrick Dulebohn laughs

(07/03 13:21:59)Patrick Dulebohn: Again, this is primarily with your well-being in mind. We know you’ll be excited to sprint down the path, but please use caution and your best judgement as there are *no* guard rails down a vast majority of the path.

(07/03 13:22:01)Rabbit: no peeing off the edge?

(07/03 13:22:12)Patrick Dulebohn: Ha! Please no.

(07/03 13:22:21)ShilohOBrien: Biohazard, dude!

(07/03 13:22:26)Patrick Dulebohn: Also note that, while we’ll be working tirelessly to get things open, this is a HUGE undertaking, so please temper any expectations you may have as far as when it’ll be open to the public.

(07/03 13:22:26)Rabbit starts to laugh

(07/03 13:22:39)Patrick Dulebohn: Odds are we’ll most likely release other Ages and cavern locations before opening the path to D’ni…but we’ll get there.

(07/03 13:22:56)Patrick Dulebohn: On a final note, I have been working with others to bring their restoration projects here to you all, and that work is ongoing. Expect to see the results of that labor very soon!

(07/03 13:23:13)Patrick Dulebohn: Sorry to be cryptic and lacking details, but I don’t want to spoil their good work until it’s ready to present to you all!

(07/03 13:23:14)Kayara: Rabbit: I am sure such misbehaviour will be swiftly taken care of by whoever happens to be passing by underneath 😉

(07/03 13:23:14)Korov’ev: high heels are unadvisable

(07/03 13:23:18)Patrick Dulebohn grins

(07/03 13:23:29)Patrick Dulebohn: That’s all I have for now. Did anyone have any questions?

(07/03 13:23:32)neurovac: Great work! Thanks to all who have and continue to help make improvements.

(07/03 13:23:43)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Ro”Jethhe.

(07/03 13:23:43)Korov’ev: [Ro”Jethhe] Will the elevators in the Great Shart be working?

(07/03 13:23:55)Patrick Dulebohn: Yes. Explorers will have the choice to walk or ride.

(07/03 13:24:14)Korov’ev: Our next question is from ShilohOBrien.

(07/03 13:24:14)Korov’ev: [ShilohOBrien] How can we help?

(07/03 13:24:21)ShilohOBrien: Who wants to get their cardio in?

(07/03 13:24:38)Rabbit: me

(07/03 13:24:49)J’Kla: Are there any difibs

(07/03 13:24:54)Rabbit starts to laugh

(07/03 13:24:55)Patrick Dulebohn: When we’re near completion, we’ll need people to come in to check around and see if there’s anything fishy or dangerous along the path that we may need to work on.

(07/03 13:25:02)Rabbit: ok

(07/03 13:25:12)Patrick Dulebohn: Luckily, we have no shortage of volunteers, but every bit helps!

(07/03 13:25:18)Korov’ev: Maintainers assemble!

(07/03 13:25:19)Rabbit: wabbits are good at finding danger

(07/03 13:25:20)Patrick Dulebohn: We’ll let you know when that comes up.

(07/03 13:25:28)Patrick Dulebohn: It’s still a ways off though.

(07/03 13:25:39)Patrick Dulebohn: Any other questions?

(07/03 13:25:47)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Calum Traveler.

(07/03 13:25:47)Korov’ev: [Calum Traveler] Any tease you can give about where on the surface exactly we’d be starting from?

(07/03 13:25:55)Calum Traveler: there are atleast two known entrances to the Shaft, after all. 😉

(07/03 13:26:27)Patrick Dulebohn: Given we’d rather not have people sneaking in while we’re working, we’re keeping the exact entrance we’ll use under wraps for now. Sorry, but again, it’s for your own safety.

(07/03 13:26:34)Calum Traveler: fair nough

(07/03 13:26:41)Patrick Dulebohn: It won’t be closed forever, I promise!

(07/03 13:26:43)Patrick Dulebohn grins

(07/03 13:26:47)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Jules Lavisham.

(07/03 13:26:48)Korov’ev: [Jules Lavisham] What’s the current state of the Shaft in general? Did the DRC manage to get any of it restored before the last restorations folded?

(07/03 13:26:56)ShilohOBrien: And professionals never like having their elbows joggled.

(07/03 13:27:17)TGMChrist: I would like to say one thing. I won’t go down the Great Shaft on foot and I will use the elevator. It’s better for my heart.

(07/03 13:27:30)Patrick Dulebohn: They did, but as I said, there were a series of strong quakes several years ago that upset most of their work. It’s why we’ve gotten in touch with them for their thoughts on how to proceed.

(07/03 13:27:55)Korov’ev: Our next question is from uru348.

(07/03 13:27:55)Korov’ev: [uru348] Will there be multiple entrances or just one from the surface?

(07/03 13:28:13)Patrick Dulebohn: We’re not sure yet. It’d be convenient to have more than one. Fun too!

(07/03 13:28:26)Korov’ev: Find all the entrances!

(07/03 13:28:44)rarified: One of those pits in Minkata.

(07/03 13:28:47)Korov’ev: THat’s all I have in queue

(07/03 13:28:56)Patrick Dulebohn: Alright. Thank you!

(07/03 13:28:58)Patrick Dulebohn bows

(07/03 13:28:59)Korov’ev: THank you Patrick!

(07/03 13:29:00)ScottMiller: somewhere near the clift?

(07/03 13:29:00)Rabbit: Thanks Kor

(07/03 13:29:12)Rabbit: Thanks Patrick!

(07/03 13:29:21)Emor D’ni Lap applauds P.D.

(07/03 13:29:48)Korov’ev: Now let’s hear what’s up in the Minkata shard, from rarified!

(07/03 13:30:10)rarified waves hello

(07/03 13:30:14)rarified: Shorah!

(07/03 13:30:31)rarified: June was a bit quiet for me as I was out of town on “vacation”.

(07/03 13:30:49)rarified: … and I’m just finishing recovering from “vacation” 😛

(07/03 13:31:04)rarified: But that hasn’t slowed the contributors.

(07/03 13:31:30)rarified: Minkata is still being used to verify a new restoration, as Patrick aluded to earlier.

(07/03 13:31:58)rarified: It’s had many eyes on it and is looking very close to be released.

(07/03 13:32:32)rarified: On the client front, we have about a half dozen new player-facing improvements

(07/03 13:32:53)rarified: in the pipeline. Marten has been working on cherry picking the most attractive

(07/03 13:33:10)rarified: of these (or the most popular as can be determined by asking).

(07/03 13:33:27)rarified: Right now we’re working on fixing many of the problems when avatars are

(07/03 13:33:51)rarified: being moved through space, such as elevators, vogondolas, etc.

(07/03 13:34:09)rarified: Things are getting better, but there’s still room for improvement.

(07/03 13:34:28)rarified: Our next scheduled update to MOULa will be in mid-late August, so I hope

(07/03 13:34:39)rarified: to have a more complete list at the next AGM.

(07/03 13:35:04)rarified: Finally, we pushed through a couple of additions that will be used at or for Mysterium,

(07/03 13:35:31)rarified: and Marten and I and other fan contributors have been invited to a panel

(07/03 13:35:51)rarified: on Sunday at Mysterium about how Fan content can get to MOULa.

(07/03 13:36:12)rarified: You might consider following Mysterium if you’re interested in a lot of the

(07/03 13:36:30)rarified: stuff people have to do to continue restoration here.

(07/03 13:36:38)rarified: That’s all I have. Questions?

(07/03 13:36:53)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Claidi Song.

(07/03 13:36:54)Korov’ev: [Claidi Song] Q? Will the fixes ultimately make skydiving impossible?

(07/03 13:37:19)rarified: Skydiving as it existed before was possible because of bugs in the client.

(07/03 13:37:39)rarified: Fixing those bugs did close off skydiving opportunities. *However* you might

(07/03 13:38:00)rarified: consider asking some of the fan restoration leaders if they could add

(07/03 13:38:17)rarified: opportunities for skydiving when deciding how to restore or write new ages.

(07/03 13:38:47)Investigatrix kneels down…

(07/03 13:38:50)Korov’ev: Thank you Rarified!

(07/03 13:03:10) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(07/03 13:03:31) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(07/03 13:04:09) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(07/03 13:04:16) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(07/03 13:04:23) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(07/03 13:04:27) Calum Traveler: (2 didnt make it)
(07/03 13:04:32) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(07/03 13:04:40) Korov'ev: weird
(07/03 13:04:46) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(07/03 13:05:09) Calum Traveler nods his head

(07/03 13:11:35) PodHopper: speachless Kor?

(07/03 13:11:50) ShilohOBrien goes WTF?
(07/03 13:11:51) : [ Auto Shout Enabled ]
(07/03 13:11:58) Korov'ev: can you read me?
(07/03 13:11:58) Eternal Seeker: someone has to reboot Kor
(07/03 13:12:02) Calum Traveler: can now
(07/03 13:12:03) Rabbit is a bit puzzled…
(07/03 13:12:04) Minasunda: yes
(07/03 13:12:06) ShilohOBrien: Kor went mute
(07/03 13:12:10) Kayara: No
(07/03 13:12:13) Korov'ev: ok

(07/03 13:13:40) Ro"Jethhe cheers
(07/03 13:13:45) Korov'ev: The host, Larry LeDeay, uses his Twitch channel for the presentation, so you will need to keep a browser or the app open in the background: http://twitch.tv/LWF58

(07/03 13:15:07) Patrick Dulebohn: I should note that Kor is NOT a bot…unless he's doing some work for me. The guy can translate D'ni like a machine!
(07/03 13:15:09) Patrick Dulebohn grins
(07/03 13:15:14) Patrick Dulebohn: Happy weekend, everyone! And of course, a happy Fourth of July weekend to our explorers here in the United States.
(07/03 13:15:29) Patrick Dulebohn: I'm here once again to update you on the progress of our explorer-led restoration as the work continues elsewhere.
(07/03 13:15:33) cameo: 🙂
(07/03 13:15:40) Patrick Dulebohn: Yesterday, we were finally able to finish Vothol's new structural supports, and as such, I had the Linking Book placed in Chiso.
(07/03 13:15:43) ShilohOBrien plots to do a Turing Test on Kor.
(07/03 13:15:53) Rabbit starts to laugh
(07/03 13:15:56) Patrick Dulebohn: You may now explore the gallery at any time. This is the latest location here in the cavern open to explorers since the Pub last August.
(07/03 13:16:09) Rabbit cheers
(07/03 13:16:12) Patrick Dulebohn: This location comes with a few mysteries as well, particularly with its location.
(07/03 13:16:23) Patrick Dulebohn: As yet, we haven't exactly been able to pinpoint where it is in relation to the rest of D'ni…just that it's IN the cavern somewhere.
(07/03 13:16:36) Patrick Dulebohn: KI coordinates are either scrambled or non-existent. All we know for sure is it's in a place the Great Zero beam can't reach.
(07/03 13:16:45) ShilohOBrien: Schrodinger's Gallery?
(07/03 13:16:52) Patrick Dulebohn: Heh.
(07/03 13:16:54) Rabbit grins
(07/03 13:16:56) Patrick Dulebohn: We'd send a boat out, but the surrounding rock formations make that incredibly dangerous.
(07/03 13:16:59) Korov'ev: maybe they're scrambled on purpose!
(07/03 13:17:07) Calum Traveler: beam doesnt seem to go past ae'gura in my experience, so it could be anywhere, really.
(07/03 13:17:08) Patrick Dulebohn: It's definitely not a clear path like the ferry terminal in Ae'gura.
(07/03 13:17:16) rarified: Egg room level 2
(07/03 13:17:22) Patrick Dulebohn: Truly amazing that its original discoverer, Rustee, was able to find it at all!
(07/03 13:17:35) Kayara: Did you consider sending a drone?
(07/03 13:17:46) Patrick Dulebohn: We *believe* it was a place to house some of the most priceless and valuable D'ni artworks, and the secretive nature of the location was for security reasons…but that's still just speculation at this point.
(07/03 13:17:47) Rabbit: or a bahro?
(07/03 13:18:04) Calum Traveler: it was almost certainly GOW owned at some point
(07/03 13:18:08) Calum Traveler: what with all the pen imagery
(07/03 13:18:09) ShilohOBrien: Alas, the bahro are not taxis
(07/03 13:18:11) Patrick Dulebohn: Indeed.
(07/03 13:18:15) Patrick Dulebohn: In any case, feel free to visit Vothol Gallery and its preserved artwork when you get a chance. It's currently the leftmost Book on the pedestals in Chiso, next to Tre'bivdil's Book.
(07/03 13:18:38) Patrick Dulebohn: Now on to new business…
(07/03 13:18:51) Patrick Dulebohn: After consulting our structural engineers…who have been pulling double-duty with both Vothol and what I'm about to discuss…and getting some valuable notes from members of the DRC…
(07/03 13:19:03) Patrick Dulebohn: I am now happy to announce that an effort to restore the entirety of the Great Shaft and the full path to D'ni is officially underway!
(07/03 13:19:10) ShilohOBrien cheers
(07/03 13:19:11) Thumbs up from Calum Traveler
(07/03 13:19:12) Rabbit cheers
(07/03 13:19:14) Adi: YAY
(07/03 13:19:15) uru348 cheers
(07/03 13:19:15) Kayara cheers
(07/03 13:19:16) Ro"Jethhe is amazed!
(07/03 13:19:17) skyisblu cheers
(07/03 13:19:17) thor-ham cheers
(07/03 13:19:17) Jules Lavisham: Oh excellent!
(07/03 13:19:19) MindWalker cheers
(07/03 13:19:19) PodHopper cheers
(07/03 13:19:20) TGMChrist cheers
(07/03 13:19:24) thoekenem cheers
(07/03 13:19:26) Theo cheers
(07/03 13:19:26) Creekwriter cheers
(07/03 13:19:27) ScottMiller cheers
(07/03 13:19:28) Claidi Song: Yes!
(07/03 13:19:32) Patrick Dulebohn: We do know that a lot of you have been able to make it to one of the rest areas there, but the path was cut off at both ends by structural damage.
(07/03 13:19:46) Patrick Dulebohn: It doesn't help that a strong series of quakes in or around 2005 caused even further damage to other areas.
(07/03 13:19:59) Patrick Dulebohn: Nevertheless, we remain determined to open up as much of the walking path to D'ni as we can.
(07/03 13:20:04) ShilohOBrien: Thank
(07/03 13:20:11) Rabbit: yesssss!
(07/03 13:20:13) Patrick Dulebohn: If all goes well, anyone can start from the surface and work their way down directly to the cavern. I know it's been a popular dream of most people here to retrace the steps of Aitrus and his family.
(07/03 13:20:15) ShilohOBrien: Thank the Maker for Relto books.
(07/03 13:20:34) Patrick Dulebohn: Plus, it's fascinating to see the methods the D'ni used to push their way towards the surface before efforts were ultimately abandoned. The shaft itself is really quite an impressive structural marvel, so it'll be good to have people able to see it in all its glory.
(07/03 13:20:56) Patrick Dulebohn: There WILL be rules in place for your safety, of course. First and foremost, nobody is to attempt ascending or descending the Great Shaft by foot unless they have a Relto Book.
(07/03 13:21:11) Patrick Dulebohn: While we have yet to decipher the Age itself thanks to Yeesha's…shall we say…unique Writing style…it *does* serve as a handy means of keeping one's self safe from harm…or in this case, dangerous falls.
(07/03 13:21:28) Calum Traveler: we dont want another Phil, folks.
(07/03 13:21:30) Patrick Dulebohn: Others are more common sense, such as proceeding carefully, no running, no littering…
(07/03 13:21:33) Calum Traveler: keep your reltobooks on hand 😉
(07/03 13:21:39) ShilohOBrien: In case of emergency, use Relto.
(07/03 13:21:43) rarified: No scissors.
(07/03 13:21:44) Patrick Dulebohn: Think of it like the rules when you're at a public pool.
(07/03 13:21:45) Korov'ev: no jumping down… wait….
(07/03 13:21:47) Patrick Dulebohn laughs
(07/03 13:21:59) Patrick Dulebohn: Again, this is primarily with your well-being in mind. We know you'll be excited to sprint down the path, but please use caution and your best judgement as there are *no* guard rails down a vast majority of the path.
(07/03 13:22:01) Rabbit: no peeing off the edge?
(07/03 13:22:12) Patrick Dulebohn: Ha! Please no.
(07/03 13:22:21) ShilohOBrien: Biohazard, dude!
(07/03 13:22:26) Patrick Dulebohn: Also note that, while we'll be working tirelessly to get things open, this is a HUGE undertaking, so please temper any expectations you may have as far as when it'll be open to the public.
(07/03 13:22:26) Rabbit starts to laugh
(07/03 13:22:39) Patrick Dulebohn: Odds are we'll most likely release other Ages and cavern locations before opening the path to D'ni…but we'll get there.
(07/03 13:22:56) Patrick Dulebohn: On a final note, I have been working with others to bring their restoration projects here to you all, and that work is ongoing. Expect to see the results of that labor very soon!
(07/03 13:23:05) Rabbit claps her hands
(07/03 13:23:13) Patrick Dulebohn: Sorry to be cryptic and lacking details, but I don't want to spoil their good work until it's ready to present to you all!
(07/03 13:23:14) Kayara: Rabbit: I am sure such misbehaviour will be swiftly taken care of by whoever happens to be passing by underneath 😉
(07/03 13:23:14) Korov'ev: high heels are unadvisable
(07/03 13:23:18) Patrick Dulebohn grins
(07/03 13:23:29) Patrick Dulebohn: That's all I have for now. Did anyone have any questions?
(07/03 13:23:32) neurovac: Great work! Thanks to all who have and continue to help make improvements.
(07/03 13:23:43) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Ro"Jethhe.
(07/03 13:23:43) Korov'ev: [Ro"Jethhe] Will the elevators in the Great Shart be working?
(07/03 13:23:55) Patrick Dulebohn: Yes. Explorers will have the choice to walk or ride.
(07/03 13:24:04) Ro"Jethhe cheers
(07/03 13:24:14) Korov'ev: Our next question is from ShilohOBrien.
(07/03 13:24:14) Korov'ev: [ShilohOBrien] How can we help?
(07/03 13:24:21) ShilohOBrien: Who wants to get their cardio in?
(07/03 13:24:38) Rabbit: me
(07/03 13:24:49) J'Kla: Are there any difibs
(07/03 13:24:54) Rabbit starts to laugh
(07/03 13:24:55) Patrick Dulebohn: When we're near completion, we'll need people to come in to check around and see if there's anything fishy or dangerous along the path that we may need to work on.
(07/03 13:25:02) Rabbit: ok
(07/03 13:25:12) Patrick Dulebohn: Luckily, we have no shortage of volunteers, but every bit helps!
(07/03 13:25:18) Korov'ev: Maintainers assemble!
(07/03 13:25:19) Rabbit: wabbits are good at finding danger
(07/03 13:25:20) Patrick Dulebohn: We'll let you know when that comes up.
(07/03 13:25:28) Patrick Dulebohn: It's still a ways off though.
(07/03 13:25:39) Patrick Dulebohn: Any other questions?
(07/03 13:25:47) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Calum Traveler.
(07/03 13:25:47) Korov'ev: [Calum Traveler] Any tease you can give about where on the surface exactly we'd be starting from?
(07/03 13:25:55) Calum Traveler: there are atleast two known entrances to the Shaft, after all. 😉
(07/03 13:26:27) Patrick Dulebohn: Given we'd rather not have people sneaking in while we're working, we're keeping the exact entrance we'll use under wraps for now. Sorry, but again, it's for your own safety.
(07/03 13:26:34) Calum Traveler: fair nough
(07/03 13:26:41) Patrick Dulebohn: It won't be closed forever, I promise!
(07/03 13:26:43) Patrick Dulebohn grins
(07/03 13:26:47) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Jules Lavisham.
(07/03 13:26:48) Korov'ev: [Jules Lavisham] What's the current state of the Shaft in general? Did the DRC manage to get any of it restored before the last restorations folded?
(07/03 13:26:56) ShilohOBrien: And professionals never like having their elbows joggled.
(07/03 13:27:17) TGMChrist: I would like to say one thing. I won't go down the Great Shaft on foot and I will use the elevator. It's better for my heart.
(07/03 13:27:30) Patrick Dulebohn: They did, but as I said, there were a series of strong quakes several years ago that upset most of their work. It's why we've gotten in touch with them for their thoughts on how to proceed.
(07/03 13:27:55) Korov'ev: Our next question is from uru348.
(07/03 13:27:55) Korov'ev: [uru348] Will there be multiple entrances or just one from the surface?
(07/03 13:28:13) Patrick Dulebohn: We're not sure yet. It'd be convenient to have more than one. Fun too!
(07/03 13:28:26) Korov'ev: Find all the entrances!
(07/03 13:28:44) rarified: One of those pits in Minkata.
(07/03 13:28:47) Korov'ev: THat's all I have in queue
(07/03 13:28:56) Patrick Dulebohn: Alright. Thank you!
(07/03 13:28:58) Patrick Dulebohn bows
(07/03 13:28:59) Korov'ev claps his hands
(07/03 13:28:59) Korov'ev: THank you Patrick!
(07/03 13:29:00) PodHopper claps his hands
(07/03 13:29:00) ScottMiller: somewhere near the clift?

(07/03 13:30:10) rarified waves hello
(07/03 13:30:14) rarified: Shorah!
(07/03 13:30:31) rarified: June was a bit quiet for me as I was out of town on "vacation".
(07/03 13:30:49) rarified: … and I'm just finishing recovering from "vacation" 😛
(07/03 13:31:04) rarified: But that hasn't slowed the contributors.
(07/03 13:31:30) rarified: Minkata is still being used to verify a new restoration, as Patrick aluded to earlier.
(07/03 13:31:58) rarified: It's had many eyes on it and is looking very close to be released.
(07/03 13:32:32) rarified: On the client front, we have about a half dozen new player-facing improvements
(07/03 13:32:53) rarified: in the pipeline. Marten has been working on cherry picking the most attractive
(07/03 13:33:10) rarified: of these (or the most popular as can be determined by asking).
(07/03 13:33:27) rarified: Right now we're working on fixing many of the problems when avatars are
(07/03 13:33:51) rarified: being moved through space, such as elevators, vogondolas, etc.
(07/03 13:34:09) rarified: Things are getting better, but there's still room for improvement.
(07/03 13:34:28) rarified: Our next scheduled update to MOULa will be in mid-late August, so I hope
(07/03 13:34:39) rarified: to have a more complete list at the next AGM.
(07/03 13:35:04) rarified: Finally, we pushed through a couple of additions that will be used at or for Mysterium,
(07/03 13:35:31) rarified: and Marten and I and other fan contributors have been invited to a panel
(07/03 13:35:51) rarified: on Sunday at Mysterium about how Fan content can get to MOULa.
(07/03 13:36:12) rarified: You might consider following Mysterium if you're interested in a lot of the
(07/03 13:36:30) rarified: stuff people have to do to continue restoration here.
(07/03 13:36:38) rarified: That's all I have. Questions?
(07/03 13:36:53) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Claidi Song.
(07/03 13:36:54) Korov'ev: [Claidi Song] Q? Will the fixes ultimately make skydiving impossible?
(07/03 13:37:19) rarified: Skydiving as it existed before was possible because of bugs in the client.
(07/03 13:37:39) rarified: Fixing those bugs did close off skydiving opportunities. *However* you might
(07/03 13:38:00) rarified: consider asking some of the fan restoration leaders if they could add
(07/03 13:38:17) rarified: opportunities for skydiving when deciding how to restore or write new ages.
(07/03 13:38:25) Rabbit cheers
(07/03 13:38:47) Investigatrix kneels down…
(07/03 13:38:50) Korov'ev claps his hands

(07/03 13:39:32) Korov'ev: Continuing on the topic of fan ages,
(07/03 13:39:37) Korov'ev: the usual Fan Age Expedition update, from the Deep Island shard.
(07/03 13:39:43) Korov'ev: In June, we started the exploration of Alabaster, by Dulcamara. We're not done yet!
(07/03 13:39:56) Korov'ev: For July, once we finish Alabaster the plan is to explore Laki'anay and related ages by the New Age Project;
(07/03 13:40:03) Korov'ev: then we'll attempt to overcome the puzzles in Tentsahveet, by Jhon J. Jaguar.
(07/03 13:40:13) Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard Hood (you can get there quickly with "/hood").
(07/03 13:40:19) Korov'ev: There's also a (mute) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort
(07/03 13:40:34) Korov'ev: I don't think you need an account just to watch
(07/03 13:40:47) Korov'ev: (that's also for the Cavern Tour)
(07/03 13:41:29) PodHopper: account is only needed if you want to join chat
(07/03 13:41:42) Korov'ev: I don't see r'Tayrtahn, so…
(07/03 13:42:02) Korov'ev: yes, only for commenting
(07/03 13:42:06) Korov'ev: Some quick Mysterium news:
(07/03 13:42:13) Korov'ev: The schedule of the convention is now available at https://mysterium.net/schedule
(07/03 13:42:34) Korov'ev: As mentioned by Mina, as the convention will be online this year too, the Committee will host a couple of marker missions in the Cavern. The missions will be made available through Mir-o-Bot or MinBot. More info here: https://mysterium.net/marker-missions
(07/03 13:42:57) Korov'ev: And we're at the summary of this month's events (times in KI time).
(07/03 13:43:03) Korov'ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers' Hood;
(07/03 13:43:08) Korov'ev: if you find a mistake, please let me know so I can correct it.
(07/03 13:43:14) Korov'ev: Sunday 11 is the 6th anniversary of the age building plugin, Korman.
(07/03 13:43:33) Rabbit cheers
(07/03 13:43:35) Korov'ev: It's been a long road 🙂
(07/03 13:43:39) Korov'ev: Monday 12 is Leesahn 8, the day of the Fall of D'ni, in 9400 DE or 1744 CE.
(07/03 13:43:53) Korov'ev: On Friday 16 to Sunday 18, Mysterium will take place, online.
(07/03 13:44:00) Korov'ev: Friday 30 is the 14th of the Gametap third episode "Familiar Voices".
(07/03 13:44:06) Korov'ev: Now, for what's going on in the Cavern itself:
(07/03 13:44:12) Korov'ev: The Guild of Greeters' Hood is staffed Monday-Saturday 13:45-14:15, if you need hints or info about the Cavern.

(07/03 13:46:25) Korov'ev: And with that, this Meeting is ended. Thank you all for coming, see you next month!

(06/05 13:00:56)Korov’ev: Shorah, and welcome to the 134th All Guilds Meeting!

(06/05 13:01:04)Korov’ev: In the D’ni calendar today is Leebro 8, 9677, and the time is 9:2:19

(06/05 13:01:14)Korov’ev: If there’s anyone new: welcome to the Cavern! You picked the best time to visit 🙂

(06/05 13:01:24)Korov’ev: As usual, I’ll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:

(06/05 13:01:31)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(06/05 13:01:42)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(06/05 13:01:58)Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.

(06/05 13:02:11)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(06/05 13:02:22)Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(06/05 13:02:32)Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.

(06/05 13:03:08)Korov’ev: Let’s see which events are coming in the Cavern:

(06/05 13:03:11)Korov’ev: On Monday 14, starting at 13:00 KIT, Nosila will stream some music:

(06/05 13:03:20)Korov’ev: the title is ‘The Times They Are a-Changin’, and it will be about equality, protest and hope.

(06/05 13:03:28)Korov’ev: The location is Aegura Plaza, but you can be alsewhere 😉

(06/05 13:03:39)Korov’ev: And like every month, next week there’ll be a Cavern Tour,

(06/05 13:03:46)Korov’ev: on Saturday, June 12, at 10:00 KIT, starting in Cavern Tour’s Hood.

(06/05 13:03:57)Korov’ev: The host, Larry LeDeay, uses his Twitch channel for the presentation, so you will need to keep a browser or the app open in the background: http://twitch.tv/LWF58

(06/05 13:04:06)Korov’ev: Videos will be available for two weeks after the tour. The stream will be simulcasted on Facebook and Youtube.

(06/05 13:04:14)Korov’ev: Mir-o-Bot (KI# 32319) is usually employed for special effects and long-distance travel (and to avoid stairs).

(06/05 13:04:40)Korov’ev: Now, the moment you were probably waiting 😉

(06/05 13:04:52)Korov’ev: We have some rather interesting updates on the Age Restoration Project: let’s hear from Doobes!

(06/05 13:05:10)Doobes waves hello

(06/05 13:05:11)Dulcamara: her hands

(06/05 13:05:18)Doobes: Hello, my fellow explorers!

(06/05 13:05:29)Doobes: I come to you with quite a bit of news yet again…so big, in fact, that I had to shed my in-character persona that I’d plan to present with today to tell it to you. 😀

(06/05 13:05:41)Doobes: First up, the most immediate news.

(06/05 13:05:50)Doobes: Yesterday, we released Lontahv’s Age of Tre’bivdil for all to visit!

(06/05 13:06:14)Doobes: I wanted to try a stealthy release for this one so people could “discover” it on their own, sort of like the old days of Gametap before episodes.

(06/05 13:06:28)Doobes: That and I didn’t want to pull Chogon into the cavern on a weekend. The guy had plans, and I didn’t want to keep him from them. 😉

(06/05 13:06:42)Doobes: It’s certainly not to downplay the fine work Lontahv put into it, and it’s here with all of you present that I commend him for his fantastic Age!

(06/05 13:06:45)ShilohOBrien: Considerate

(06/05 13:06:54)TikiBear: Hear, hear!

(06/05 13:06:57)Emor D’ni Lap applauds Lontahv

(06/05 13:07:01)Doobes: I have a little bit of history about the Age directly from Lontahv, who couldn’t make it today, sadly. He sends his best though.

(06/05 13:07:13)Doobes: “Tre’bivdil is best classified as a modern garden Age. The geometric shapes and primary elements that form its core are described by simple phrases that are shared with a set of phrases from ancient training manuscripts discovered by the modern day Guild of Writers.

(06/05 13:07:35)Doobes: “The name, which can be translated roughly to ‘amongst everything’, reflects the combination of these very basic elements together.

(06/05 13:07:50)Doobes: “While the weather is generally clement, care must be taken after a rainstorm as the rocks can become slippery.”

(06/05 13:08:00)Doobes: Signed, Lontahv. 😀

(06/05 13:08:12)Thumbs up from EthanEver

(06/05 13:08:15)Doobes: I can certainly attest to that! Plus, need to watch out for mold buildup too. 😉

(06/05 13:08:27)Doobes: So after the meeting, if you get a chance, swing on over to Chiso and visit the Age of Tre’bivdil!

(06/05 13:08:43)Doobes: So we now have a summer *and* a winter Age to visit (Payiferen and Dereno notwithstanding)…and don’t forget, Vothol Gallery is not too far away either.

(06/05 13:08:48)ametist’ thinks it’s a lovely age

(06/05 13:09:04)Doobes: When will we release that Book? You’ll just have to keep checking back. 😛

(06/05 13:09:17)Doobes: The other big piece of news I have for you happened just yesterday…and it’s generating quite the buzz!

(06/05 13:09:20)ametist’ smiles

(06/05 13:09:28)Doobes: For those that are unaware, there was a group of hand-picked developers called the Intangibles.

(06/05 13:09:44)Doobes: Fan developers, that is.

(06/05 13:09:48)Doobes: Under a non-disclosure agreement from Cyan, they were granted access to unreleased and unfinished content meant for URU Live.

(06/05 13:10:02)Doobes: This came to an end awhile back when we were allowed to openly modify any and all MOULa content…which is how we were able to get fan Ages here.

(06/05 13:10:10)ShilohOBrien gasp

(06/05 13:10:16)Doobes: Unfortuantely, this meant Cyan had withdrawn the rights to work on the Intangibles content, which was a bit upsetting, but at the end of the day, their decision.

(06/05 13:10:31)Doobes: Yesterday, as a surprise to most of us (including me), Cyan released *all* of the Intangibles content to the public!

(06/05 13:10:46)Boywhith: Wow…

(06/05 13:10:47)EthanEver is amazed!

(06/05 13:10:51)axenna: whoa…

(06/05 13:10:52)Doobes: Again, this is the motherlode of all their unreleased content meant for URU before things were shut down.

(06/05 13:10:53)skyisblu: Wow!

(06/05 13:11:07)Doobes: It includes a treasure trove of concept art, documents, audio and textures as well as MAX files in varying states of completion.

(06/05 13:11:07)Dulcamara: So cool

(06/05 13:11:16)Kayara: Where?

(06/05 13:11:19)Rada Mendelssohn hears a breath from the Cavern

(06/05 13:11:29)Doobes: For developers, this means free access to complete any of the content they would like to try.

(06/05 13:11:40)Doobes: For your average explorer, this is most exciting: it means places like the Great Shaft/Descent will most likely be greatly expanded…and Ages like Kahlo, Rebek, Katha Island and others could see the light of day here in MOULa someday!

(06/05 13:11:43)Calisia: That’s awesome

(06/05 13:11:49)ametist’ rubs her hands together

(06/05 13:11:54)ShilohOBrien cheer

(06/05 13:12:06)Doobes: As I understand it, this content will fall under the same Creative Commons license as the current MOULa content (BY-NC-SA 4.0) meaning any converted files will be freely distributable so long as the license is attached.

(06/05 13:12:23)Doobes: Now I imagine my colleagues would like for me to keep your expectations under control. I should note that a lot of this content is *very* unfinished, so it would take quite awhile to complete much of it.

(06/05 13:12:42)Doobes: Once again, we must exercise our patience and Cautious Optimism ™ when it comes to this…but the fact that anyone is able to pick it up and work on it *does* help the chances of some sort of release.

(06/05 13:13:04)Doobes: I, for one, will most likely try to spearhead the effort to expand Descent and open up the rest of the Great Shaft, furthering the walkable path to D’ni from the surface (and vice versa).

(06/05 13:13:18)

(06/05 13:13:21)Emor D’ni Lap: What Doobes said regarding *lots* of work necessary, to varying degrees

(06/05 13:13:29)Doobes: Note that the files we have are different and include more than what was seen in Myst V , so the experience will no doubt be both familiar *and* different from what you’ve seen before.

(06/05 13:13:47)Doobes: This is going to be a huge undertaking, so bear with me. Plus, there’s my other projects to work on, but I plan to give this priority as well.

(06/05 13:14:01)Doobes: So keep your eyes peeled and your fingers crossed, folks…things will hopefully be getting very interesting soon.

(06/05 13:14:11)Doobes: (and later 😛 )

(06/05 13:14:23)Doobes: Speaking of things getting interesting, there has been a LOT of work recently behind the scenes for the next update to MOULa.

(06/05 13:14:37)Doobes: I’m sure someone can fill in the bullet points of what’s going in, but this will most likely be a ton more quality-of-life fixes.

(06/05 13:14:55)Doobes: We’ll need as many people as possible helping us to test over on Minkata shard, so be sure to check the OpenUru Discord and forums for more updates on that.

(06/05 13:15:09)Doobes: (this is still a ways off, I believe)

(06/05 13:15:09)Calisia: Fascinating!

(06/05 13:15:29)Doobes: Each and every pair of eyes we can get on things would be most helpful.

(06/05 13:15:40)Doobes: Lastly, I wanted to mention that I’ve also been working with a couple of Age builders to get their work ready for MOULa. This mostly involves my lighting expertise.

(06/05 13:15:54)Korov’ev: the more bugs we find on Minkata, the less will pop their heads here 😉

(06/05 13:15:58)ShilohOBrien: Let there be light!

(06/05 13:16:05)Doobes: If names like ametist and Dulcamara are familiar and you’re a fan of their work…feel free to get excited as, if all goes well, you may see it here someday in the not-too-distant future!

(06/05 13:16:14)axenna: YES!

(06/05 13:16:15)Doobes: *some of it, that is. 😀

(06/05 13:16:19)Calisia: Yippeee!!!

(06/05 13:16:20)TikiBear: Yay!

(06/05 13:16:34)Doobes: Yeah…lots to keep me and other busy. LOL!

(06/05 13:16:43)Doobes: *others

(06/05 13:16:52)Doobes: So that’s all I’ve got this time. Any questions?

(06/05 13:17:06)Doobes: Also, NOT Elodea. Not yet. 😀

(06/05 13:17:12)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Briggs.

(06/05 13:17:12)Korov’ev: [Briggs] What’s your favorite folder in the intangibles release and why is it Battle Chicken?

(06/05 13:17:17)axenna is a happy panda

(06/05 13:17:20)Korov’ev: heh

(06/05 13:17:21)Doobes: Another of Dulcamara’s fine works. Hehehe.

(06/05 13:17:27)rarified: Don’t forget to mention the Archivists lore for the Intangibles.

(06/05 13:17:32)Doobes: LOL! Nice one, Briggs. 😛

(06/05 13:17:39)Briggs grins

(06/05 13:17:46)Doobes: Plus…battle chicken? Doesn’t it sound COOL?

(06/05 13:17:53)Briggs starts to laugh

(06/05 13:17:55)Kelsei A.T. starts to laugh

(06/05 13:17:57)ShilohOBrien: CLUCK!!!!

(06/05 13:18:00)Korov’ev: There are a few very juicy from a lore standpoint 😉

(06/05 13:18:13)Korov’ev: big spoiler warning!

(06/05 13:18:17)Doobes: Oh yes! The Guild of Archivists are also taking a more direct role as far as the incoming lore of the new content.

(06/05 13:18:21)Rada Mendelssohn whispers “understatement”

(06/05 13:18:39)Briggs: It’s a treasure trove of pre-release content that gives you a good look into the game development process. I recommend checking it out!

(06/05 13:18:44)Doobes: Since this was all announced yesterday, we’re still getting everything together and smoothed out, so bear with us.

(06/05 13:18:54)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Ro”Jethhe.

(06/05 13:18:54)Korov’ev: [Ro”Jethhe] Question: Is all of this new content going to be installed on the CYAN server or on a seperate server?

(06/05 13:19:13)Doobes: Separate server first, and…if all goes well…it eventually comes here to MOULa.

(06/05 13:19:20)Ro”Jethhe thanks you

(06/05 13:19:33)Doobes: There are two Minkata servers and a staging server before that happens though.

(06/05 13:19:49)Doobes: Any other questions?

(06/05 13:20:08)Korov’ev: and some are just design concepts without material assets

(06/05 13:20:29)Korov’ev: Our next question is from ShilohOBrien.

(06/05 13:20:29)Korov’ev: [ShilohOBrien] Ok this gives my funding question a new urgency. Maybe this was answered in the past as I’ve only joined back up in the last few months, but, is there a particular reason why the CAVECON is expressed as percentages rather than hard numbers?

(06/05 13:20:31)Doobes: Again, there will be more details in the coming days and weeks as we all wrap our heads around this new development.

(06/05 13:20:56)Doobes: You’d have to ask Cyan about that one.

(06/05 13:21:02)Emor D’ni Lap: in other words, almost all the Intangibles content is far from being installed on ANY server, and much discussion is required to determine its direction in each case

(06/05 13:21:05)Korov’ev: Short version is that Cyan perfers to keep the data reserved

(06/05 13:21:06)ShilohOBrien: Ah well

(06/05 13:21:18)Doobes: Not sure how they tabulate all that. All I can tell you is the money goes to keeping this server up and, when there’s new stuff to test, running the staging server.

(06/05 13:21:33)Doobes: And, in the rare instance, fixing problems.

(06/05 13:21:43)Korov’ev: we have 3 more:

(06/05 13:21:46)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Kelsei A.T..

(06/05 13:21:46)Korov’ev: [Kelsei A.T.] the release of this info was very last moment and quite sudden as I understand it?

(06/05 13:21:47)Doobes: (mostly server-side since we don’t have access to that)

(06/05 13:21:48)ShilohOBrien: So I just keep throwing more money at the problem. Well, it’s not like I’ll have kids to inherit

(06/05 13:22:12)Doobes: Yes, this was announced yesterday afternoon EST….so it’s still VERY new. 😀

(06/05 13:22:29)Doobes: Chogon told me about an hour or so beforehand. Hehehe.

(06/05 13:22:49)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Jules Lavisham.

(06/05 13:22:49)Korov’ev: [Jules Lavisham] What level of expertise is going to be needed to work with the assets released? Is there anything that non art/tech people can do to help?

(06/05 13:22:51)Doobes: Again, we’ll all do our best to smooth out the details very soon.

(06/05 13:23:13)ShilohOBrien: “Oh, by the way, we’re doing a huge content dump to into opensource. Have fun! Byyyyye!!!”

(06/05 13:23:14)Doobes: Well, certainly keep the spirit alive here while we do all that tech mumbo jumbo.

(06/05 13:23:17)rarified mutters “Testers!”

(06/05 13:23:42)Doobes: Otherwise, any story or lore help would also be very appreciated.

(06/05 13:23:48)Briggs: Testing is fun, come test today!

(06/05 13:23:49)Night-Tripper: is that a good mutter or bad mutter

(06/05 13:24:02)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Calisia.

(06/05 13:24:03)Korov’ev: [Calisia] To help at Minkata Shard, do we simply go there and play looking for things to break?

(06/05 13:24:03)Doobes: Cataloging will probably need to be done as well. Again, I’m sure we’ll have more of what we need from everyone once we get things together.

(06/05 13:24:09)rarified: It’s a recruitment mutter 😉

(06/05 13:24:17)Doobes: Pretty much!

(06/05 13:24:33)Doobes: Although it’s best to save up the energy for when rarified and crew announce some new stuff to break. 😉

(06/05 13:24:44)Doobes: But if you’re playing on an off time and come across a bug, it never hurts to report it.

(06/05 13:24:44)ametist’ smiles

(06/05 13:24:50)Calisia: Consider me recruited then. I’ll watch these meetings for announcements.

(06/05 13:24:54)rarified: If you can follow the OpenUru Discord or Forums for hints on what needs testing.

(06/05 13:24:55)Theo: (I’m sure it’s a good mutter…). Even without art and tech, you still have a User Experience.

(06/05 13:24:59)Calisia: ok

(06/05 13:25:02)Doobes: Also check the Open URU Discord and forums.

(06/05 13:25:30)Korov’ev: if you’re into lore, there’s also a lot to dissect 😉

(06/05 13:25:39)Doobes: Yes indeed.

(06/05 13:25:47)Emor D’ni Lap: Alahmnat @ Guild of Archivists

(06/05 13:25:52)Doobes: Any more questions? I don’t want to hold other presenters up too long. 🙂

(06/05 13:26:01)rarified: Be advised, though, if you participate in Minkata you have to act surprised when things appear in MOULa

(06/05 13:26:03)Korov’ev: I think we’re done 🙂

(06/05 13:26:10)Korov’ev: Thank you Doobes!

(06/05 13:26:14)Doobes: Thanks everyone!

(06/05 13:26:15)Doobes bows

(06/05 13:26:17)Calisia: I will act very surprised!!!

(06/05 13:26:25)Briggs: What an amazing time to be in the cavern

(06/05 13:26:27)Night-Tripper salutes

(06/05 13:26:30)Kelsei A.T.: what an amazing time indeed

(06/05 13:26:33)Calisia: Briggs – agreed

(06/05 13:26:40)Korov’ev: And let’s hear what’s on the plan for OpenUru, from Rarified!

(06/05 13:26:45)Doobes: We’re on fire…er, metaphorically, that is. 😛

(06/05 13:26:52)ametist’ laughs

(06/05 13:26:53)Emor D’ni Lap applauds rarified

(06/05 13:27:04)rarified waves hello

(06/05 13:27:09)rarified: Shorah all!

(06/05 13:27:16)Dulcamara waves back

(06/05 13:27:17)Kelsei A.T.: shorah!

(06/05 13:27:32)Doobes hopes rarified fills in the massive gaps he left in the Intangibles announcement

(06/05 13:27:35)Doobes: 😀

(06/05 13:27:36)rarified: Pardon my typos and slow typing. Trying to keep paint on my fingers from decorating my keyboard.

(06/05 13:27:54)Night-Tripper: finger painting

(06/05 13:27:56)Doobes: D’ni meets DIY.

(06/05 13:28:05)shokhootahn Rehn: lol

(06/05 13:28:14)Korov’ev: rarifieds amazing multicolor keyboard

(06/05 13:28:17)rarified: Yes, it is exciting. Even for me — I’m on “vacation” and get to do painting and plumbing 😛

(06/05 13:28:34)Kelsei A.T.: fun

(06/05 13:28:41)Emor D’ni Lap sympathizes

(06/05 13:28:56)rarified: The news about Cyan’s willingness to release the Intangibles is unexpected and appreciated.

(06/05 13:29:27)rarified: Please if you run into a Cyantist on the boards, let them know you appreciate the offer.

(06/05 13:30:12)rarified: The Intangible assets are more than a Gigabyte of files. They have been archived on both

(06/05 13:30:27)Doobes: Remember, this stuff used to be under NDA, so this was pretty big of them to do.

(06/05 13:30:38)rarified: the OpenUru repositories and the Guidl of Writers GitHub repositories. The OpenUru #dev

(06/05 13:30:48)rarified: channel has the URLs to get to them.

(06/05 13:31:04)Emor D’ni Lap: on Discord

(06/05 13:31:27)rarified: As was mentioned, these files were frozen in time when Uru development ceased. Some of them

(06/05 13:31:55)rarified: were created when Cyan was at it’s peak, with a hundred or more artists working on Uru.

(06/05 13:32:26)rarified: Some of them are very complex, with deep lore already defined. Others are just in the idea

(06/05 13:32:54)rarified: stage. I think Doobes is correct in first sampling some of the assets closest to already

(06/05 13:33:15)rarified: existing parts of Uru and using them to extend MOULa like Descent.

(06/05 13:33:36)rarified: Big age additions will take time and effort. A LOT of effort.

(06/05 13:34:10)rarified: So, Cautious Optimism prevails but temper it with “Soon(tm)”

(06/05 13:34:42)rarified: Ok. We do have some fan content in the pipeline which I hope to make generally

(06/05 13:34:43)ShilohOBrien: Like Aslan, do you call all times “Soon”?

(06/05 13:35:07)rarified: available on Minkata prime for testing — soon 😉

(06/05 13:35:24)Dulcamara is so excited

(06/05 13:35:36)Calisia dittos that

(06/05 13:35:38)rarified: This content has been polished down to the molecular level, and I think you will enjoy it

(06/05 13:35:46)ShilohOBrien looks for a hint of a lion’s mane around rarified’s head

(06/05 13:35:51)philipgr is very excited

(06/05 13:36:12)Professor Katsup is also very excited

(06/05 13:36:19)rarified: In addition to that, we continue to get a lot of progress in bringing user experience improvemens

(06/05 13:36:53)rarified: to the client from Marten. He has taken the lead in sifting through the state-of-the-art improvments

(06/05 13:37:10)Briggs: Hooray Marten!

(06/05 13:37:14)rarified: in the H’uru client and carving them into the Minkata/MOULa client.

(06/05 13:37:39)rarified: Marten, can you come up and give us a preview of what you’ve got baking now?

(06/05 13:37:44)Emor D’ni Lap: Hooray Hoikas!

(06/05 13:37:47)Theo: The Ending will Never Be Written! The Called remain to continue on the Path of Those Who Came Before!

(06/05 13:38:18)Kelsei A.T. mutters something about ‘faces of stone’

(06/05 13:38:28)shokhootahn Rehn: lol

(06/05 13:38:38)rarified leans left

(06/05 13:38:47)Marten: As Emor mentioned, most of what is being ported over is Hoikas’ work. There are bits and pieces from others. I think there’s something from zrax in the current pile I’m working on too.

(06/05 13:38:54)Korov’ev: Easter Island was a D’ni enclave

(06/05 13:39:04)ShilohOBrien laughs

(06/05 13:39:14)Marten: A lot of these updates have been in H’uru for a long time and I wish we could have brought them to MOULa sooner, but the gears are finally turning.

(06/05 13:39:36)Doobes: Turning and churning…

(06/05 13:39:37)Marten: It’s so good to see you all in widescreen at this AGM and not have everything squished!

(06/05 13:39:44)Doobes: YES!

(06/05 13:39:48)rarified grins

(06/05 13:39:50)Emor D’ni Lap: very very cool

(06/05 13:39:58)Calisia: VERY!!!!

(06/05 13:40:24)Marten: The next major update will probably be timed in late July or early August. We might have an intermediate update before then to get a shirt into the game for an upcoming event… that is TBD.

(06/05 13:41:32)Eternal Seeker: tbd ?

(06/05 13:41:36)Kelsei A.T.: to be determined

(06/05 13:41:42)Doobes: Yeah, that.

(06/05 13:41:49)Marten: What you’ll be testing in the coming weeks on Minkata will be:

(06/05 13:42:10)Marten: Fixes for subworlds, the frame rate unlock, general performance improvements, and hopefully, some minor Quality of Life improvements.

(06/05 13:42:31)MindWalker: wow

(06/05 13:42:43)Doobes: So hopefully no more falling off that chair ride in Ahnonay. 🙂

(06/05 13:42:59)Marten: Subworlds are situations like the Ahnonay chair, the Teledahn bucket, and the Gahreesen Elevator. These have been problematic for years and H’uru devs have taken multiple whacks at fixing it. Some of those fixes are in MOULa already…

(06/05 13:43:15)Marten: But there are more fixes, because as some of you have noticed, it still happens in MOULa.

(06/05 13:43:28)Calisia: Aha!

(06/05 13:43:29)Marten: That’s all for now

(06/05 13:43:45)Emor D’ni Lap applauds Marten

(06/05 13:43:46)Briggs: Thank you Marten, Adam, and Rarified!!

(06/05 13:43:52)Korov’ev: wait there 😉

(06/05 13:43:55)rarified: Thanks, Marten! Both for the presentation and work.

(06/05 13:44:11)rarified: It takes a bit of pressure off me 😀

(06/05 13:44:41)rarified: As Martten mentioned, there might (note the word “might” implies conditional) be

(06/05 13:44:41)Korov’ev: a lot to look forward, for sure

(06/05 13:44:59)rarified: a lightning round of testing for some new clothing in the next couple of weeks.

(06/05 13:45:22)rarified: If it happens, I’ll announce it on the OU #dev discord as well as the OU Forums.

(06/05 13:45:48)rarified: We’ll need quick response to the call for testing. I’m talking hours not days or weeks. Please!

(06/05 13:45:50)TikiBear: Literally looking for wardrobe malfunctions.

(06/05 13:45:59)Doobes laughs

(06/05 13:46:07)Kelsei A.T.: as one should 😉

(06/05 13:46:08)ShilohOBrien: I want a bikini option!!!

(06/05 13:46:09)Dulcamara claps hr hands

(06/05 13:46:28)rarified: Ok. Lessee, anything else? The Minkata shard had a hiccup in the last day or so that I’ve

(06/05 13:46:39)Boywhith: Yeah, a swimshort…

(06/05 13:46:42)rarified: corrected, so it should be available again.

(06/05 13:46:47)Korov’ev: there’s now a Testers role, right?

(06/05 13:47:20)rarified: Yes. If you are on the OU discord channel and ask to be placed on @testers, I’ll add you

(06/05 13:47:22)axenna: mkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk/sit

(06/05 13:47:29)Calisia: Definitely.

(06/05 13:47:31)axenna: omg i am so sorry

(06/05 13:47:33)TikiBear: LOL

(06/05 13:47:36)Briggs: catlike typing detected

(06/05 13:47:38)rarified: to that role so you can get notices of when something new needs work.

(06/05 13:47:44)Emor D’ni Lap: blame the cat, axenna!

(06/05 13:47:48)Lu*: lol

(06/05 13:47:56)Dulcamara: a girl dress would be nice 🙂

(06/05 13:47:59)rarified: That’s it, I think Kor’. Questions?

(06/05 13:47:59)axenna hangs her head

(06/05 13:48:04)Lu*: sure!

(06/05 13:48:13)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Night-Tripper.

(06/05 13:48:13)Korov’ev: [Night-Tripper] ? How do I get to Minkata prime for testing

(06/05 13:48:45)rarified: Go to https://foundry.openuru.org. There is a signup link there for Minkata.

(06/05 13:48:55)rarified: You will get email with further instructions there.

(06/05 13:49:11)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Calisia.

(06/05 13:49:12)Korov’ev: [Calisia] Are the old marker games working again? I heard many were somewhat broken?

(06/05 13:49:18)rarified: Also sign up at https://forums.openuru.org and watch the “Minkata” topic.

(06/05 13:49:30)Night-Tripper: thx rarified

(06/05 13:50:04)rarified: Hmmm, I guess I’m not sure which “old” games. Ones on MOULa that players designed?

(06/05 13:50:12)Calisia: Yes

(06/05 13:50:42)rarified: I can’t say; I wasn’t aware that old games were not working. I have had a report of some KI-mail

(06/05 13:50:53)rarified: sharing issues on Minkata but not on MOULa.

(06/05 13:51:05)Briggs: Marker games with over 1500 markers were disabled, could that be it?

(06/05 13:51:11)Marten: Why don’t you mention how to report bugs with MOULa, rarified.

(06/05 13:51:15)Calisia: I will check and report at openUru.org

(06/05 13:51:22)rarified: Perhaps you can describe the issue in more detail on the OU #support discord.

(06/05 13:51:28)Calisia: Could be, Briggs.

(06/05 13:51:35)Theo: Or was the issue that there had been a marker game tool or editor, of sorts, that no longer works?

(06/05 13:51:55)rarified: The path to bug resolution for ongoing work on the Minkata servers is

(06/05 13:52:03)Calisia: Subtle position movements of targets, to my understanding.

(06/05 13:52:06)rarified: 1) post in OU #support a short escription

(06/05 13:52:06)TikiBear: Large markergames are disabled AND can’t be deleted.

(06/05 13:52:31)Korov’ev: better continue the marker games discussion later

(06/05 13:52:36)rarified: 2) if unresolved file a ticket at https://bugs.openuru.org (I think, I’ll have to check again)

(06/05 13:52:53)Adi: (i would guess the fuss is about glitching/skydiving stuff)

(06/05 13:53:12)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Lutra.

(06/05 13:53:12)Korov’ev: [Lutra] In general, how likely would things like new clothing and new avvie attributes such as hair styles be to add?

(06/05 13:53:14)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Lutra.

(06/05 13:53:14)Korov’ev: [Lutra] And is there any work being done to improve things like chat scrollback? The widgets are a little difficult to work with.

(06/05 13:53:18)Calisia: Adi – that could be.

(06/05 13:53:49)rarified: Lutra that will require being able to make changes to the KI model. The abaility to fully

(06/05 13:53:57)rarified: recreate the KI isn’t ready yet.

(06/05 13:54:43)Lutra: oh, are you guys working on a revamp of the ki or something?

(06/05 13:55:12)Evelyn: try using the page up and down keys on the keyboard for scrolling chat

(06/05 13:55:14)Marten: I’ll let rarified answer the part about new clothing and hair styles. I believe that to improve the KI, we have to have the KI source, which might be in the Intangibles assets that were just released? Not sure.

(06/05 13:55:15)rarified: New clothing is almost akin to age building. It still is a bit technical right now, and won’t likely

(06/05 13:55:20)Calisia: Sounds suspicious!

(06/05 13:55:21)Doobes: The KI is a very complicated monster. There’s been talk of that, but it’ll be a daunting task for whoever attempts it.

(06/05 13:55:26)rarified: be something easy to do for players.

(06/05 13:55:48)Lutra: Evelyn: thanks, didn’t know about page up/page down

(06/05 13:56:03)Lutra: thx for your answers, guys.

(06/05 13:56:09)Marten: At the moment, in terms of improvements, my focus has been on porting things that H’uru has implemented – not introducing entirely brand new things. H’uru has an issues system on their GitHub where you can report bugs and request features! That’s the best place to start for improvements.

(06/05 13:56:46)Adam {Hoikas}: https://github.com/H-uru/Plasma/issues

(06/05 13:56:47)Korov’ev: let’s get what is already in the pipeline out first 😉

(06/05 13:56:58)Doobes: Indeed.

(06/05 13:57:02)Emor D’ni Lap: whew!

(06/05 13:57:09)Doobes: Don’t worry, still plenty in there. 😀

(06/05 13:57:13)Marten: H’uru will keep putting new things in the pipeline and rarified and I will keep playing catch-up 🙂

(06/05 13:57:16)Adam {Hoikas}: (and YES there is an open PR adding the ability to click on links in game. it’s waiting for review…)

(06/05 13:57:17)rarified: Any more Qs?

(06/05 13:57:35)Korov’ev: we’re done 🙂

(06/05 13:57:47)Korov’ev: Thank you Rarified and Marten!

(06/05 13:57:50)rarified: Thank you all for the opportujnitiies!

(06/05 13:57:53)rarified bows

(06/05 13:57:58)Emor D’ni Lap: woof woof

(06/05 13:58:01)shokhootahn Rehn: clap

(06/05 13:58:11)Doobes: Heh…Marten just zooms offstage. XD

(06/05 13:58:40)Korov’ev: Continuing on the topic of fan ages,

(06/05 13:58:45)Korov’ev: the usual Fan Age Expedition update, from the Deep Island shard.

(06/05 13:58:53)Korov’ev: In May, we visit Lonirvan, Eh’ko, The Cathedral, Ahreesen Melin, Kahntinoy, Fena Barel.

(06/05 13:59:00)Korov’ev: For June, the plan is to explore Alabaster, by Dulcamara. It will take a while!

(06/05 13:59:12)axenna: <3

(06/05 13:59:14)Korov’ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard Hood (you can get there quickly with “/hood”).

(06/05 13:59:19)Korov’ev: There’s also a (mute) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort

(06/05 13:59:27)Korov’ev: Radio Free D’ni will start right after with the preshow, at 12:30 KIT.

(06/05 13:59:45)Korov’ev: And now, the monthly update from r’Tayrtahn, aka Shokhootahn Rehn!

(06/05 14:00:15)Dulcamara claps her hand s

(06/05 14:00:23)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.

(06/05 14:00:36)shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(06/05 14:00:50)shokhootahn Rehn: There are no evening classes available, at the moment. There are daytime openings Monday through Friday, starting at either 12:00 KI time, 13:00 KI time, or 14:00 KI time depending on the student’s schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time.

(06/05 14:01:15)shokhootahn Rehn: Though, daytime availability is subject to change with little or no notice.

(06/05 14:01:31)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.

(06/05 14:02:20)shokhootahn Rehn: Currently there are seven (SEVEN!) students taking the classes and are at various stages of completion.

(06/05 14:02:32)shokhootahn Rehn: (two are new students)

(06/05 14:02:51)Korov’ev: nice 🙂

(06/05 14:02:58)shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(06/05 14:03:08)Korov’ev: none in queue

(06/05 14:03:13)shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…

(06/05 14:03:23)shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(06/05 14:03:31)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is, currently, in synch with original Story Night.

(06/05 14:03:47)shokhootahn Rehn: We have started the story from the Book of D’ni. Today we are on part eight of eight of the stories. Next week starts the story from the game of Exile.

(06/05 14:04:20)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(06/05 14:04:34)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.

(06/05 14:04:57)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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.

(06/05 14:05:18)shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.

(06/05 14:05:36)shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(06/05 14:06:02)shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(06/05 14:06:26)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 so it must be added to the body of the text.

(06/05 14:06:53)shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED! (caps for emphasis, not for shouting)

(06/05 14:06:54)shokhootahn Rehn:

(06/05 14:07:13)shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI number so they were unable to be added.

(06/05 14:07:28)shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(06/05 14:07:35)shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(06/05 14:07:54)Korov’ev: none in queue

(06/05 14:08:09)Korov’ev: Thank you, Tayrtahn!

(06/05 14:08:10)shokhootahn Rehn bows

(06/05 14:08:11)Emor D’ni Lap: thank you Rehn

(06/05 14:08:34)shokhootahn Rehn: It looks like todays SN-E will start about 14:45.

(06/05 14:08:53)Korov’ev: heh, yes 🙂

(06/05 14:09:01)Korov’ev: Some quick Mysterium news:

(06/05 14:09:06)Korov’ev: Meinert Hansen, Robyn Miller, Brian Wrench are the first 3 special guests announced;

(06/05 14:09:32)Korov’ev: priority will be given to event submissions sent by May 31, or June 20 at the latest if time allows;

(06/05 14:10:04)Korov’ev: (that obviously is a bit of old news now 🙂

(06/05 14:10:12)Korov’ev: the Westin Alexandria will not cancel bookings automatically, you will have to do it yourself via the Marriott website or by phone.

(06/05 14:10:14)Calisia: They get better and better!!!

(06/05 14:10:34)Doobes: The remote part does tend to get more people involved.

(06/05 14:10:34)Calisia: oops…

(06/05 14:11:39)Korov’ev: Before we move to the calendar, let me mention again that episode 12 of The Lost Art has just been released on Mystitech’s Youtube channel 😀

(06/05 14:12:05)Korov’ev: we had a nice premiere just before this meeting 🙂

(06/05 14:12:08)Calisia: Bravo Camera Man!!!

(06/05 14:12:16)Korov’ev thanks you very much!

(06/05 14:12:34)Korov’ev: Time for the summary of this month’s events (times in KI time).

(06/05 14:12:40)Korov’ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers’ Hood;

(06/05 14:12:46)Korov’ev: if you find a mistake, please let me know so I can correct it.

(06/05 14:12:52)Korov’ev: (Some events already presented by the speakers might be missing.)

(06/05 14:12:59)Korov’ev: Tuesday 8 is, I’m told, RAWA’s birthday! While Monday 14 is Victor Laxman’s birthday.

(06/05 14:13:07)Korov’ev: Sunday 20 is (coincidentally) Leebro 20: the Second Feast of the Maker, a celebration that pre-dates the the arrival of the D’ni from Garternay.

(06/05 14:13:15)Korov’ev: Wednesday 23 is the 14th anniversary of the Gametap second episode “A New Light”, in which Sharper left for Noloben to settle a score.

(06/05 14:13:35)Korov’ev: (to put it mildly)

(06/05 14:13:39)Korov’ev: Now, for what’s going on in the Cavern itself:

(06/05 14:13:44)Korov’ev: The Guild of Greeters’ Hood is staffed Monday-Saturday 13:45-14:15, if you need hints or info about the Cavern.

(06/05 13:01:16) shokhootahn jo claps her hands
(06/05 13:01:24) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(06/05 13:01:31) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(06/05 13:01:42) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(06/05 13:01:58) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(06/05 13:02:11) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(06/05 13:02:22) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(06/05 13:02:32) Korov'ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with "/startlog".
(06/05 13:03:08) Korov'ev: Let's see which events are coming in the Cavern:
(06/05 13:03:11) Korov'ev: On Monday 14, starting at 13:00 KIT, Nosila will stream some music:
(06/05 13:03:20) Korov'ev: the title is 'The Times They Are a-Changin', and it will be about equality, protest and hope.
(06/05 13:03:28) Korov'ev: The location is Aegura Plaza, but you can be alsewhere 😉
(06/05 13:03:39) Korov'ev: And like every month, next week there'll be a Cavern Tour,
(06/05 13:03:46) Korov'ev: on Saturday, June 12, at 10:00 KIT, starting in Cavern Tour's Hood.
(06/05 13:03:57) Korov'ev: The host, Larry LeDeay, uses his Twitch channel for the presentation, so you will need to keep a browser or the app open in the background: http://twitch.tv/LWF58
(06/05 13:04:06) Korov'ev: Videos will be available for two weeks after the tour. The stream will be simulcasted on Facebook and Youtube.
(06/05 13:04:14) Korov'ev: Mir-o-Bot (KI# 32319) is usually employed for special effects and long-distance travel (and to avoid stairs).
(06/05 13:04:40) Korov'ev: Now, the moment you were probably waiting 😉
(06/05 13:04:52) Korov'ev claps his hands
(06/05 13:04:52) Korov'ev: We have some rather interesting updates on the Age Restoration Project: let's hear from Doobes!

(06/05 13:05:18) Doobes: Hello, my fellow explorers!
(06/05 13:05:29) Doobes: I come to you with quite a bit of news yet again…so big, in fact, that I had to shed my in-character persona that I'd plan to present with today to tell it to you. 😀
(06/05 13:05:41) Doobes: First up, the most immediate news.
(06/05 13:05:50) Doobes: Yesterday, we released Lontahv's Age of Tre'bivdil for all to visit!
(06/05 13:05:54) Briggs cheers
(06/05 13:05:56) Aurelias cheers
(06/05 13:05:58) etelka cheers
(06/05 13:05:59) ametist' cheers
(06/05 13:05:59) skyisblu cheers
(06/05 13:06:00) Professor Katsup claps his hands
(06/05 13:06:01) Lu* claps her hands
(06/05 13:06:02) PodHopper cheers

(06/05 13:06:03) axenna cheers
(06/05 13:06:04) Kelsei A.T. cheers
(06/05 13:06:05) Rada Mendelssohn claps her hands
(06/05 13:06:06) J'Kla claps his hands
(06/05 13:06:07) Doobes claps his hands
(06/05 13:06:13) Scharminius cheers… he will have to visit it soon…
(06/05 13:06:14) Boywhith cheers
(06/05 13:06:14) Doobes: I wanted to try a stealthy release for this one so people could "discover" it on their own, sort of like the old days of Gametap before episodes.
(06/05 13:06:15) Dulcamara claps her hands
(06/05 13:06:15) ShilohOBrien cheers
(06/05 13:06:16) Letanqua claps his hands
(06/05 13:06:28) Doobes: That and I didn't want to pull Chogon into the cavern on a weekend. The guy had plans, and I didn't want to keep him from them. 😉
(06/05 13:06:42) Doobes: It's certainly not to downplay the fine work Lontahv put into it, and it's here with all of you present that I commend him for his fantastic Age!
(06/05 13:06:45) ShilohOBrien: Considerate
(06/05 13:06:54) TikiBear: Hear, hear!
(06/05 13:06:57) Emor D'ni Lap applauds Lontahv
(06/05 13:07:01) Doobes: I have a little bit of history about the Age directly from Lontahv, who couldn't make it today, sadly. He sends his best though.
(06/05 13:07:04) Lu* claps her hands
(06/05 13:07:13) Doobes: "Tre'bivdil is best classified as a modern garden Age. The geometric shapes and primary elements that form its core are described by simple phrases that are shared with a set of phrases from ancient training manuscripts discovered by the modern day Guild of Writers.
(06/05 13:07:15) Calisia claps her hands
(06/05 13:07:35) Doobes: "The name, which can be translated roughly to 'amongst everything', reflects the combination of these very basic elements together.
(06/05 13:07:50) Doobes: "While the weather is generally clement, care must be taken after a rainstorm as the rocks can become slippery."
(06/05 13:08:00) Doobes: Signed, Lontahv. 😀
(06/05 13:08:06) axenna claps her hands
(06/05 13:08:12) Thumbs up from EthanEver
(06/05 13:08:15) Doobes: I can certainly attest to that! Plus, need to watch out for mold buildup too. 😉
(06/05 13:08:27) Doobes: So after the meeting, if you get a chance, swing on over to Chiso and visit the Age of Tre'bivdil!
(06/05 13:08:36) Dulcamara claps her hands
(06/05 13:08:43) Doobes: So we now have a summer *and* a winter Age to visit (Payiferen and Dereno notwithstanding)…and don't forget, Vothol Gallery is not too far away either.
(06/05 13:08:43) axenna cheers
(06/05 13:08:48) ametist' thinks it's a lovely age
(06/05 13:08:58) Calisia cheers
(06/05 13:09:04) Doobes: When will we release that Book? You'll just have to keep checking back. 😛
(06/05 13:09:17) Doobes: The other big piece of news I have for you happened just yesterday…and it's generating quite the buzz!
(06/05 13:09:20) ametist' smiles
(06/05 13:09:28) Doobes: For those that are unaware, there was a group of hand-picked developers called the Intangibles.
(06/05 13:09:44) Doobes: Fan developers, that is.
(06/05 13:09:48) Doobes: Under a non-disclosure agreement from Cyan, they were granted access to unreleased and unfinished content meant for URU Live.
(06/05 13:10:02) Doobes: This came to an end awhile back when we were allowed to openly modify any and all MOULa content…which is how we were able to get fan Ages here.
(06/05 13:10:10) ShilohOBrien gasp
(06/05 13:10:16) Doobes: Unfortuantely, this meant Cyan had withdrawn the rights to work on the Intangibles content, which was a bit upsetting, but at the end of the day, their decision.
(06/05 13:10:31) Doobes: Yesterday, as a surprise to most of us (including me), Cyan released *all* of the Intangibles content to the public!
(06/05 13:10:46) Boywhith: Wow…
(06/05 13:10:47) EthanEver is amazed!
(06/05 13:10:49) Dulcamara cheers
(06/05 13:10:51) axenna: whoa…
(06/05 13:10:52) Doobes: Again, this is the motherlode of all their unreleased content meant for URU before things were shut down.
(06/05 13:10:53) skyisblu: Wow!
(06/05 13:10:53) Professor Katsup cheers
(06/05 13:11:03) ametist' cheers
(06/05 13:11:07) Doobes: It includes a treasure trove of concept art, documents, audio and textures as well as MAX files in varying states of completion.
(06/05 13:11:07) Dulcamara: So cool
(06/05 13:11:16) Kayara: Where?
(06/05 13:11:19) Rada Mendelssohn hears a breath from the Cavern
(06/05 13:11:29) Doobes: For developers, this means free access to complete any of the content they would like to try.
(06/05 13:11:40) Doobes: For your average explorer, this is most exciting: it means places like the Great Shaft/Descent will most likely be greatly expanded…and Ages like Kahlo, Rebek, Katha Island and others could see the light of day here in MOULa someday!
(06/05 13:11:43) Calisia: That's awesome
(06/05 13:11:49) ametist' rubs her hands together
(06/05 13:11:54) ShilohOBrien cheer
(06/05 13:12:05) Dulcamara cheers
(06/05 13:12:06) Doobes: As I understand it, this content will fall under the same Creative Commons license as the current MOULa content (BY-NC-SA 4.0) meaning any converted files will be freely distributable so long as the license is attached.
(06/05 13:12:23) Doobes: Now I imagine my colleagues would like for me to keep your expectations under control. I should note that a lot of this content is *very* unfinished, so it would take quite awhile to complete much of it.
(06/05 13:12:42) Doobes: Once again, we must exercise our patience and Cautious Optimism ™ when it comes to this…but the fact that anyone is able to pick it up and work on it *does* help the chances of some sort of release.
(06/05 13:13:04) Doobes: I, for one, will most likely try to spearhead the effort to expand Descent and open up the rest of the Great Shaft, furthering the walkable path to D'ni from the surface (and vice versa).
(06/05 13:13:18)
(06/05 13:13:21) Emor D'ni Lap: What Doobes said regarding *lots* of work necessary, to varying degrees
(06/05 13:13:29) Doobes: Note that the files we have are different and include more than what was seen in Myst V , so the experience will no doubt be both familiar *and* different from what you've seen before.
(06/05 13:13:47) Doobes: This is going to be a huge undertaking, so bear with me. Plus, there's my other projects to work on, but I plan to give this priority as well.
(06/05 13:14:01) Doobes: So keep your eyes peeled and your fingers crossed, folks…things will hopefully be getting very interesting soon.
(06/05 13:14:11) Doobes: (and later 😛 )
(06/05 13:14:23) Doobes: Speaking of things getting interesting, there has been a LOT of work recently behind the scenes for the next update to MOULa.
(06/05 13:14:37) Doobes: I'm sure someone can fill in the bullet points of what's going in, but this will most likely be a ton more quality-of-life fixes.
(06/05 13:14:55) Doobes: We'll need as many people as possible helping us to test over on Minkata shard, so be sure to check the OpenUru Discord and forums for more updates on that.
(06/05 13:15:09) Doobes: (this is still a ways off, I believe)
(06/05 13:15:09) Calisia: Fascinating!
(06/05 13:15:29) Doobes: Each and every pair of eyes we can get on things would be most helpful.
(06/05 13:15:40) Doobes: Lastly, I wanted to mention that I've also been working with a couple of Age builders to get their work ready for MOULa. This mostly involves my lighting expertise.
(06/05 13:15:54) Korov'ev: the more bugs we find on Minkata, the less will pop their heads here 😉
(06/05 13:15:58) ShilohOBrien: Let there be light!
(06/05 13:16:05) Doobes: If names like ametist and Dulcamara are familiar and you're a fan of their work…feel free to get excited as, if all goes well, you may see it here someday in the not-too-distant future!
(06/05 13:16:14) axenna: YES!
(06/05 13:16:15) Doobes: *some of it, that is. 😀
(06/05 13:16:19) Calisia: Yippeee!!!
(06/05 13:16:20) TikiBear: Yay!
(06/05 13:16:21) skyisblu cheers
(06/05 13:16:26) Boywhith cheers
(06/05 13:16:27) Scharminius cheers
(06/05 13:16:33) axenna cheers
(06/05 13:16:34) Night-Tripper cheers
(06/05 13:16:34) Doobes: Yeah…lots to keep me and other busy. LOL!
(06/05 13:16:35) Theo cheers
(06/05 13:16:40) philipgr claps his hands
(06/05 13:16:42) Kelsei A.T. claps her hands
(06/05 13:16:43) Doobes: *others
(06/05 13:16:44) Professor Katsup cheers
(06/05 13:16:45) Mabe claps his hands
(06/05 13:16:52) Doobes: So that's all I've got this time. Any questions?
(06/05 13:16:53) SandDoone claps her hands
(06/05 13:17:06) Doobes: Also, NOT Elodea. Not yet. 😀
(06/05 13:17:12) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Briggs.
(06/05 13:17:12) Korov'ev: [Briggs] What's your favorite folder in the intangibles release and why is it Battle Chicken?
(06/05 13:17:17) axenna is a happy panda
(06/05 13:17:20) Korov'ev: heh
(06/05 13:17:21) Doobes: Another of Dulcamara's fine works. Hehehe.
(06/05 13:17:27) rarified: Don't forget to mention the Archivists lore for the Intangibles.
(06/05 13:17:32) Doobes: LOL! Nice one, Briggs. 😛
(06/05 13:17:39) Briggs grins
(06/05 13:17:46) Doobes: Plus…battle chicken? Doesn't it sound COOL?
(06/05 13:17:50) Doobes cheers
(06/05 13:17:53) Briggs starts to laugh
(06/05 13:17:55) Kelsei A.T. starts to laugh
(06/05 13:17:57) ShilohOBrien: CLUCK!!!!
(06/05 13:18:00) Korov'ev: There are a few very juicy from a lore standpoint 😉
(06/05 13:18:13) Korov'ev: big spoiler warning!
(06/05 13:18:17) Doobes: Oh yes! The Guild of Archivists are also taking a more direct role as far as the incoming lore of the new content.
(06/05 13:18:21) Rada Mendelssohn whispers "understatement"
(06/05 13:18:39) Briggs: It's a treasure trove of pre-release content that gives you a good look into the game development process. I recommend checking it out!
(06/05 13:18:44) Doobes: Since this was all announced yesterday, we're still getting everything together and smoothed out, so bear with us.
(06/05 13:18:54) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Ro"Jethhe.
(06/05 13:18:54) Korov'ev: [Ro"Jethhe] Question: Is all of this new content going to be installed on the CYAN server or on a seperate server?
(06/05 13:19:13) Doobes: Separate server first, and…if all goes well…it eventually comes here to MOULa.
(06/05 13:19:20) Ro"Jethhe thanks you
(06/05 13:19:33) Doobes: There are two Minkata servers and a staging server before that happens though.
(06/05 13:19:49) Doobes: Any other questions?
(06/05 13:20:08) Korov'ev: and some are just design concepts without material assets
(06/05 13:20:29) Korov'ev: Our next question is from ShilohOBrien.
(06/05 13:20:29) Korov'ev: [ShilohOBrien] Ok this gives my funding question a new urgency. Maybe this was answered in the past as I've only joined back up in the last few months, but, is there a particular reason why the CAVECON is expressed as percentages rather than hard numbers?
(06/05 13:20:31) Doobes: Again, there will be more details in the coming days and weeks as we all wrap our heads around this new development.
(06/05 13:20:56) Doobes: You'd have to ask Cyan about that one.
(06/05 13:21:02) Emor D'ni Lap: in other words, almost all the Intangibles content is far from being installed on ANY server, and much discussion is required to determine its direction in each case
(06/05 13:21:05) Korov'ev: Short version is that Cyan perfers to keep the data reserved
(06/05 13:21:06) ShilohOBrien: Ah well
(06/05 13:21:18) Doobes: Not sure how they tabulate all that. All I can tell you is the money goes to keeping this server up and, when there's new stuff to test, running the staging server.
(06/05 13:21:33) Doobes: And, in the rare instance, fixing problems.
(06/05 13:21:43) Korov'ev: we have 3 more:
(06/05 13:21:46) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Kelsei A.T..
(06/05 13:21:46) Korov'ev: [Kelsei A.T.] the release of this info was very last moment and quite sudden as I understand it?
(06/05 13:21:47) Doobes: (mostly server-side since we don't have access to that)
(06/05 13:21:48) ShilohOBrien: So I just keep throwing more money at the problem. Well, it's not like I'll have kids to inherit
(06/05 13:22:12) Doobes: Yes, this was announced yesterday afternoon EST….so it's still VERY new. 😀
(06/05 13:22:29) Doobes: Chogon told me about an hour or so beforehand. Hehehe.
(06/05 13:22:49) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Jules Lavisham.
(06/05 13:22:49) Korov'ev: [Jules Lavisham] What level of expertise is going to be needed to work with the assets released? Is there anything that non art/tech people can do to help?
(06/05 13:22:51) Doobes: Again, we'll all do our best to smooth out the details very soon.
(06/05 13:23:13) ShilohOBrien: "Oh, by the way, we're doing a huge content dump to into opensource. Have fun! Byyyyye!!!"
(06/05 13:23:14) Doobes: Well, certainly keep the spirit alive here while we do all that tech mumbo jumbo.
(06/05 13:23:17) rarified mutters "Testers!"
(06/05 13:23:42) Doobes: Otherwise, any story or lore help would also be very appreciated.
(06/05 13:23:48) Briggs: Testing is fun, come test today!
(06/05 13:23:49) Night-Tripper: is that a good mutter or bad mutter
(06/05 13:24:02) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Calisia.
(06/05 13:24:03) Korov'ev: [Calisia] To help at Minkata Shard, do we simply go there and play looking for things to break?
(06/05 13:24:03) Doobes: Cataloging will probably need to be done as well. Again, I'm sure we'll have more of what we need from everyone once we get things together.
(06/05 13:24:09) rarified: It's a recruitment mutter 😉
(06/05 13:24:17) Doobes: Pretty much!
(06/05 13:24:33) Doobes: Although it's best to save up the energy for when rarified and crew announce some new stuff to break. 😉
(06/05 13:24:44) Doobes: But if you're playing on an off time and come across a bug, it never hurts to report it.
(06/05 13:24:44) ametist' smiles
(06/05 13:24:50) Calisia: Consider me recruited then. I'll watch these meetings for announcements.
(06/05 13:24:54) rarified: If you can follow the OpenUru Discord or Forums for hints on what needs testing.
(06/05 13:24:55) Theo: (I'm sure it's a good mutter…). Even without art and tech, you still have a User Experience.
(06/05 13:24:59) Calisia: ok
(06/05 13:25:02) Doobes: Also check the Open URU Discord and forums.
(06/05 13:25:30) Korov'ev: if you're into lore, there's also a lot to dissect 😉
(06/05 13:25:39) Doobes: Yes indeed.
(06/05 13:25:47) Emor D'ni Lap: Alahmnat @ Guild of Archivists
(06/05 13:25:52) Doobes: Any more questions? I don't want to hold other presenters up too long. 🙂
(06/05 13:26:01) rarified: Be advised, though, if you participate in Minkata you have to act surprised when things appear in MOULa
(06/05 13:26:03) Korov'ev: I think we're done 🙂
(06/05 13:26:10) Korov'ev claps his hands
(06/05 13:26:10) Korov'ev: Thank you Doobes!

(06/05 13:27:27) ScottMiller claps his hands
(06/05 13:27:32) Doobes hopes rarified fills in the massive gaps he left in the Intangibles announcement
(06/05 13:27:35) Doobes: 😀
(06/05 13:27:36) rarified: Pardon my typos and slow typing. Trying to keep paint on my fingers from decorating my keyboard.
(06/05 13:27:54) Night-Tripper: finger painting
(06/05 13:27:56) Doobes: D'ni meets DIY.
(06/05 13:28:05) shokhootahn Rehn: lol
(06/05 13:28:14) Korov'ev: rarifieds amazing multicolor keyboard
(06/05 13:28:17) rarified: Yes, it is exciting. Even for me — I'm on "vacation" and get to do painting and plumbing 😛
(06/05 13:28:34) Kelsei A.T.: fun
(06/05 13:28:41) Emor D'ni Lap sympathizes
(06/05 13:28:56) rarified: The news about Cyan's willingness to release the Intangibles is unexpected and appreciated.
(06/05 13:29:27) rarified: Please if you run into a Cyantist on the boards, let them know you appreciate the offer.
(06/05 13:30:12) rarified: The Intangible assets are more than a Gigabyte of files. They have been archived on both
(06/05 13:30:27) Doobes: Remember, this stuff used to be under NDA, so this was pretty big of them to do.
(06/05 13:30:38) rarified: the OpenUru repositories and the Guidl of Writers GitHub repositories. The OpenUru #dev
(06/05 13:30:48) rarified: channel has the URLs to get to them.
(06/05 13:31:04) Emor D'ni Lap: on Discord
(06/05 13:31:27) rarified: As was mentioned, these files were frozen in time when Uru development ceased. Some of them
(06/05 13:31:55) rarified: were created when Cyan was at it's peak, with a hundred or more artists working on Uru.
(06/05 13:32:26) rarified: Some of them are very complex, with deep lore already defined. Others are just in the idea
(06/05 13:32:54) rarified: stage. I think Doobes is correct in first sampling some of the assets closest to already
(06/05 13:33:15) rarified: existing parts of Uru and using them to extend MOULa like Descent.
(06/05 13:33:36) rarified: Big age additions will take time and effort. A LOT of effort.
(06/05 13:34:10) rarified: So, Cautious Optimism prevails but temper it with "Soon(tm)"
(06/05 13:34:42) rarified: Ok. We do have some fan content in the pipeline which I hope to make generally
(06/05 13:34:43) ShilohOBrien: Like Aslan, do you call all times "Soon"?
(06/05 13:35:07) rarified: available on Minkata prime for testing — soon 😉
(06/05 13:35:24) Dulcamara is so excited
(06/05 13:35:36) Calisia dittos that
(06/05 13:35:38) rarified: This content has been polished down to the molecular level, and I think you will enjoy it
(06/05 13:35:46) ShilohOBrien looks for a hint of a lion's mane around rarified's head
(06/05 13:35:51) philipgr is very excited
(06/05 13:36:12) Professor Katsup is also very excited
(06/05 13:36:19) rarified: In addition to that, we continue to get a lot of progress in bringing user experience improvemens
(06/05 13:36:53) rarified: to the client from Marten. He has taken the lead in sifting through the state-of-the-art improvments
(06/05 13:37:10) Briggs: Hooray Marten!
(06/05 13:37:14) rarified: in the H'uru client and carving them into the Minkata/MOULa client.
(06/05 13:37:39) rarified: Marten, can you come up and give us a preview of what you've got baking now?
(06/05 13:37:44) Emor D'ni Lap: Hooray Hoikas!
(06/05 13:37:47) Theo: The Ending will Never Be Written! The Called remain to continue on the Path of Those Who Came Before!
(06/05 13:38:18) Kelsei A.T. mutters something about 'faces of stone'
(06/05 13:38:28) shokhootahn Rehn: lol
(06/05 13:38:38) rarified leans left
(06/05 13:38:47) Marten: As Emor mentioned, most of what is being ported over is Hoikas' work. There are bits and pieces from others. I think there's something from zrax in the current pile I'm working on too.
(06/05 13:38:54) Korov'ev: Easter Island was a D'ni enclave
(06/05 13:39:04) ShilohOBrien laughs
(06/05 13:39:14) Marten: A lot of these updates have been in H'uru for a long time and I wish we could have brought them to MOULa sooner, but the gears are finally turning.
(06/05 13:39:33) Professor Katsup claps his hands
(06/05 13:39:36) Doobes: Turning and churning…
(06/05 13:39:37) Marten: It's so good to see you all in widescreen at this AGM and not have everything squished!
(06/05 13:39:44) Doobes: YES!
(06/05 13:39:48) rarified grins
(06/05 13:39:50) Emor D'ni Lap: very very cool
(06/05 13:39:58) Calisia: VERY!!!!
(06/05 13:40:24) Marten: The next major update will probably be timed in late July or early August. We might have an intermediate update before then to get a shirt into the game for an upcoming event… that is TBD.
(06/05 13:41:32) Eternal Seeker: tbd ?
(06/05 13:41:36) Kelsei A.T.: to be determined
(06/05 13:41:42) Doobes: Yeah, that.
(06/05 13:41:49) Marten: What you'll be testing in the coming weeks on Minkata will be:
(06/05 13:42:10) Marten: Fixes for subworlds, the frame rate unlock, general performance improvements, and hopefully, some minor Quality of Life improvements.
(06/05 13:42:31) MindWalker: wow
(06/05 13:42:35) Kelsei A.T. claps her hands
(06/05 13:42:43) Doobes: So hopefully no more falling off that chair ride in Ahnonay. 🙂
(06/05 13:42:59) Marten: Subworlds are situations like the Ahnonay chair, the Teledahn bucket, and the Gahreesen Elevator. These have been problematic for years and H'uru devs have taken multiple whacks at fixing it. Some of those fixes are in MOULa already…
(06/05 13:43:15) Marten: But there are more fixes, because as some of you have noticed, it still happens in MOULa.
(06/05 13:43:28) Calisia: Aha!
(06/05 13:43:29) Marten: That's all for now

(06/05 13:43:53) Lu* claps her hands
(06/05 13:43:55) rarified: Thanks, Marten! Both for the presentation and work.
(06/05 13:43:58) Briggs cheers
(06/05 13:44:08) MindWalker claps his hands
(06/05 13:44:11) rarified: It takes a bit of pressure off me 😀
(06/05 13:44:41) rarified: As Martten mentioned, there might (note the word "might" implies conditional) be
(06/05 13:44:41) Korov'ev: a lot to look forward, for sure
(06/05 13:44:59) rarified: a lightning round of testing for some new clothing in the next couple of weeks.
(06/05 13:45:22) rarified: If it happens, I'll announce it on the OU #dev discord as well as the OU Forums.
(06/05 13:45:48) rarified: We'll need quick response to the call for testing. I'm talking hours not days or weeks. Please!
(06/05 13:45:50) TikiBear: Literally looking for wardrobe malfunctions.
(06/05 13:45:59) Doobes laughs
(06/05 13:46:07) Kelsei A.T.: as one should 😉
(06/05 13:46:08) ShilohOBrien: I want a bikini option!!!
(06/05 13:46:09) Dulcamara claps hr hands
(06/05 13:46:28) rarified: Ok. Lessee, anything else? The Minkata shard had a hiccup in the last day or so that I've
(06/05 13:46:39) Boywhith: Yeah, a swimshort…
(06/05 13:46:42) rarified: corrected, so it should be available again.
(06/05 13:46:47) Korov'ev: there's now a Testers role, right?
(06/05 13:47:20) rarified: Yes. If you are on the OU discord channel and ask to be placed on @testers, I'll add you
(06/05 13:47:22) axenna: mkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk/sit
(06/05 13:47:29) Calisia: Definitely.
(06/05 13:47:31) axenna: omg i am so sorry
(06/05 13:47:33) TikiBear: LOL
(06/05 13:47:36) Briggs: catlike typing detected
(06/05 13:47:38) rarified: to that role so you can get notices of when something new needs work.
(06/05 13:47:44) Emor D'ni Lap: blame the cat, axenna!
(06/05 13:47:48) Lu*: lol
(06/05 13:47:56) Dulcamara: a girl dress would be nice 🙂
(06/05 13:47:59) rarified: That's it, I think Kor'. Questions?
(06/05 13:47:59) axenna hangs her head
(06/05 13:48:04) Lu*: sure!
(06/05 13:48:13) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Night-Tripper.
(06/05 13:48:13) Korov'ev: [Night-Tripper] ? How do I get to Minkata prime for testing
(06/05 13:48:45) rarified: Go to https://foundry.openuru.org. There is a signup link there for Minkata.
(06/05 13:48:55) rarified: You will get email with further instructions there.
(06/05 13:49:11) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Calisia.
(06/05 13:49:12) Korov'ev: [Calisia] Are the old marker games working again? I heard many were somewhat broken?
(06/05 13:49:18) rarified: Also sign up at https://forums.openuru.org and watch the "Minkata" topic.
(06/05 13:49:30) Night-Tripper: thx rarified
(06/05 13:50:04) rarified: Hmmm, I guess I'm not sure which "old" games. Ones on MOULa that players designed?
(06/05 13:50:12) Calisia: Yes
(06/05 13:50:42) rarified: I can't say; I wasn't aware that old games were not working. I have had a report of some KI-mail
(06/05 13:50:53) rarified: sharing issues on Minkata but not on MOULa.
(06/05 13:51:05) Briggs: Marker games with over 1500 markers were disabled, could that be it?
(06/05 13:51:11) Marten: Why don't you mention how to report bugs with MOULa, rarified.
(06/05 13:51:15) Calisia: I will check and report at openUru.org
(06/05 13:51:22) rarified: Perhaps you can describe the issue in more detail on the OU #support discord.
(06/05 13:51:28) Calisia: Could be, Briggs.
(06/05 13:51:35) Theo: Or was the issue that there had been a marker game tool or editor, of sorts, that no longer works?
(06/05 13:51:55) rarified: The path to bug resolution for ongoing work on the Minkata servers is
(06/05 13:52:03) Calisia: Subtle position movements of targets, to my understanding.
(06/05 13:52:06) rarified: 1) post in OU #support a short escription
(06/05 13:52:06) TikiBear: Large markergames are disabled AND can't be deleted.
(06/05 13:52:31) Korov'ev: better continue the marker games discussion later
(06/05 13:52:36) rarified: 2) if unresolved file a ticket at https://bugs.openuru.org (I think, I'll have to check again)
(06/05 13:52:53) Adi: (i would guess the fuss is about glitching/skydiving stuff)
(06/05 13:53:12) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Lutra.
(06/05 13:53:12) Korov'ev: [Lutra] In general, how likely would things like new clothing and new avvie attributes such as hair styles be to add?
(06/05 13:53:14) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Lutra.
(06/05 13:53:14) Korov'ev: [Lutra] And is there any work being done to improve things like chat scrollback? The widgets are a little difficult to work with.
(06/05 13:53:18) Calisia: Adi – that could be.
(06/05 13:53:49) rarified: Lutra that will require being able to make changes to the KI model. The abaility to fully
(06/05 13:53:57) rarified: recreate the KI isn't ready yet.
(06/05 13:54:43) Lutra: oh, are you guys working on a revamp of the ki or something?
(06/05 13:55:12) Evelyn: try using the page up and down keys on the keyboard for scrolling chat
(06/05 13:55:14) Marten: I'll let rarified answer the part about new clothing and hair styles. I believe that to improve the KI, we have to have the KI source, which might be in the Intangibles assets that were just released? Not sure.
(06/05 13:55:15) rarified: New clothing is almost akin to age building. It still is a bit technical right now, and won't likely
(06/05 13:55:20) Calisia: Sounds suspicious!
(06/05 13:55:21) Doobes: The KI is a very complicated monster. There's been talk of that, but it'll be a daunting task for whoever attempts it.
(06/05 13:55:26) rarified: be something easy to do for players.
(06/05 13:55:48) Lutra: Evelyn: thanks, didn't know about page up/page down
(06/05 13:56:03) Lutra: thx for your answers, guys.
(06/05 13:56:09) Marten: At the moment, in terms of improvements, my focus has been on porting things that H'uru has implemented – not introducing entirely brand new things. H'uru has an issues system on their GitHub where you can report bugs and request features! That's the best place to start for improvements.
(06/05 13:56:46) Adam {Hoikas}: https://github.com/H-uru/Plasma/issues
(06/05 13:56:47) Korov'ev: let's get what is already in the pipeline out first 😉

(06/05 13:57:02) Emor D'ni Lap: whew!
(06/05 13:57:09) Doobes: Don't worry, still plenty in there. 😀
(06/05 13:57:13) Marten: H'uru will keep putting new things in the pipeline and rarified and I will keep playing catch-up 🙂
(06/05 13:57:16) Adam {Hoikas}: (and YES there is an open PR adding the ability to click on links in game. it's waiting for review…)
(06/05 13:57:17) rarified: Any more Qs?
(06/05 13:57:35) Korov'ev: we're done 🙂

(06/05 14:00:50) shokhootahn Rehn: There are no evening classes available, at the moment. There are daytime openings Monday through Friday, starting at either 12:00 KI time, 13:00 KI time, or 14:00 KI time depending on the student's schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time.
(06/05 14:01:15) axenna cheers
(06/05 14:01:15) shokhootahn Rehn: Though, daytime availability is subject to change with little or no notice.
(06/05 14:01:31) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(06/05 14:02:20) shokhootahn Rehn: Currently there are seven (SEVEN!) students taking the classes and are at various stages of completion.
(06/05 14:02:32) shokhootahn Rehn: (two are new students)

(06/05 14:03:13) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(06/05 14:03:23) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(06/05 14:03:31) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is, currently, in synch with original Story Night.
(06/05 14:03:47) shokhootahn Rehn: We have started the story from the Book of D'ni. Today we are on part eight of eight of the stories. Next week starts the story from the game of Exile.
(06/05 14:04:20) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(06/05 14:04:34) 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.
(06/05 14:04:57) 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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(06/05 14:05:18) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.
(06/05 14:05:36) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(06/05 14:06:02) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(06/05 14:06:26) 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 so it must be added to the body of the text.
(06/05 14:06:53) shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED! (caps for emphasis, not for shouting)
(06/05 14:06:54) shokhootahn Rehn:
(06/05 14:07:13) shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI number so they were unable to be added.
(06/05 14:07:28) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(06/05 14:07:35) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(05/01 13:00:57)Korov’ev: Shorah, and welcome to the 133rd All Guilds Meeting!

(05/01 13:01:03)Korov’ev: In the D’ni calendar today is Leefo 9, 9677, and the time is 14:4:01

(05/01 13:01:11)Korov’ev: If there’s anyone new: welcome to the Cavern! You picked the best time to visit 🙂

(05/01 13:01:20)Korov’ev: As usual, I’ll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:

(05/01 13:01:27)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(05/01 13:01:40)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(05/01 13:01:49)Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.

(05/01 13:02:00)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(05/01 13:02:04)Synapse waves goodbye

(05/01 13:02:10)Korov’ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers’ site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(05/01 13:02:16)Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.

(05/01 13:02:34)Korov’ev: First, let’s hear about upcoming events – and more importantly, parties – in the Cavern, from Minasunda!

(05/01 13:02:54)TikiBear: MI NA MI NA MI NA

(05/01 13:03:00)Minasunda: shorah my friends 🙂

(05/01 13:03:08)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:03:09)Minasunda: last month we had two special events.

(05/01 13:03:20)Minasunda: Thanks to Yoda and Mirphak for a wonderful and magical D’ni New Year celebration. Also thanks to both of you for supporting the Nulp Dance Show “Mother Earth Day”.

(05/01 13:03:33)Minasunda: And thanks to Eternal Seeker for streaming the music for both events.

(05/01 13:03:46)Minasunda: Of course, thanks to all of you for coming. 🙂

(05/01 13:03:59)Minasunda: Those who didn’t have the opportunity to be there – here are the video links:

(05/01 13:04:11)Minasunda: D’ni New Year: https://youtu.be/xa2cAwSBOiU

(05/01 13:04:25)Minasunda: Nulp Dance Show “Mother Earth Day”: https://youtu.be/a3FKl21yOdE

(05/01 13:04:37)Minasunda: and now for the next event:

(05/01 13:04:49)Minasunda: Another interesting event awaits you on May 15th at 12 KI in Mir-O-Bot’s Jalak.

(05/01 13:05:02)Minasunda: “Mabes Rebus”

(05/01 13:05:13)Minasunda: Mabe put together picture puzzles in Jalak with an enormous amount of creativity. It shows symbols and structures from Uru and some Myst Ages.

(05/01 13:05:27)Minasunda: The event is intended as a little competition.

(05/01 13:05:37)Minasunda: It starts with simple pictures to warm up and then increases the level of difficulty.

(05/01 13:05:50)Minasunda: Whoever first writes in the chat what is displayed receives one point. A little surprise awaits the winner.

(05/01 13:06:01)Minasunda: Depending on how long it takes to solve the puzzles, Mabe will do a short show afterwards. I can assure you – this will be great.

(05/01 13:06:13)Minasunda: If there is not enough time for the show part before the start of the story night, we will soon find an appointment to show you Mabes creations.

(05/01 13:06:25)Minasunda: Eternal Seeker will also take over the music stream for this event. www.urutunes.com/Seeker

(05/01 13:06:36)Minasunda: Since Mir-O-Bot cannot be there, MinBot will step in for the event. You need to add MinBot to your Buddy list. The KI is 9292763. With PM “link” or “meet” you will be linked to the event location.

(05/01 13:06:52)Minasunda: Thats all from me – thank you for your attention – any questions ?

(05/01 13:07:14)Korov’ev: none in queue

(05/01 13:07:16)ametist’ thinks it’s going to be great!

(05/01 13:07:19)Minasunda bows

(05/01 13:07:21)Korov’ev: Thank you Minasunda!

(05/01 13:07:30)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:07:30)Emor D’ni Lap thanks Mina for her continued work!

(05/01 13:07:43)Korov’ev: And like every month, next week there’ll be a Cavern Tour,

(05/01 13:07:49)Korov’ev: on Saturday, May 8, at 10:00 KIT, starting in Cavern Tour’s Hood.

(05/01 13:07:56)Korov’ev: The host, Larry LeDeay, uses his Twitch channel for the presentation, so you will need to keep a browser or the app open in the background: http://twitch.tv/LWF58

(05/01 13:08:04)BIG thumbs up from Ro”Jethhe

(05/01 13:08:07)Korov’ev: Videos will be available for two weeks after the tour. The stream will be simulcasted on Facebook and Youtube.

(05/01 13:08:21)Korov’ev: Mir-o-Bot (KI# 32319) is usually employed for special effects and long-distance travel (and to avoid stairs).

(05/01 13:08:45)Korov’ev: And now, some updates on the Age Restoration Project: let’s hear from Doobes!

(05/01 13:09:06)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:09:12)Doobes: Hello, ladies and gentlemen!

(05/01 13:09:18)Emor D’ni Lap applauds Doobes

(05/01 13:09:25)Doobes: I just wanted to stop in to give a quick update on the new content.

(05/01 13:09:25)Boywhith: Hi Doobes!

(05/01 13:09:35)Doobes: 😛

(05/01 13:09:38)Doobes: Our friend Chogon has designated Cinco de Mayo, aka Wednesday, May 5th, as the update day for MOULa. It’ll start around 10:30 KI time and last about two hours.

(05/01 13:10:08)Doobes: Note that all three new Ages won’t be available at once. When will they appear? You’ll just have to wait and see. 😛

(05/01 13:10:25)Doobes: Yes, I know…that’s a *huge* tease, but think of it like the Gametap days before episodes. You never know what’ll happen or how!

(05/01 13:10:36)Doobes: Or when. 😀

(05/01 13:10:36)Korov’ev: ah, the anticipation 🙂

(05/01 13:10:48)Doobes: I can tell you one of the Ages will become available soon after the update…but that’s all I’ll say. 😉

(05/01 13:10:54)Korov’ev: Chewy, off the stage please

(05/01 13:11:03)Doobes: So be sure to keep stopping in…just in case!

(05/01 13:11:12)Doobes: Heh, hey Chewy. 😀

(05/01 13:11:15)Creekwriter: So no looking in until 1230 KI?

(05/01 13:11:46)Korov’ev taps his foot

(05/01 13:11:48)Doobes remains tight lipped so as not to spoil anything

(05/01 13:11:56)Doobes: On top of the new Ages, we’re also bringing some lovely fixes for the classic ones.

(05/01 13:11:57)TikiBear looks for Bahro bouncer

(05/01 13:12:00)ametist’ smiles

(05/01 13:12:10)Doobes: Some industrious explorers have been working on fixing that unruly clock in the neighborhoods.

(05/01 13:12:28)Doobes: If you hadn’t noticed, it’s juuuuuust a bit off, so they wanted to correct it so we can tell real D’ni time.

(05/01 13:12:38)Korov’ev: …just a bit

(05/01 13:12:47)Doobes: Our intrepid clock repair team consists of Hoikas, Deledrius, boq, estherbolik, and Marten. It has NOT been as easy a fix as you may think, so I commend them for sticking with it. 🙂

(05/01 13:13:04)Doobes: I may have missed a few names. If I did, apologies. 😀

(05/01 13:13:16)Doobes: There’s also some quality of life fixes to the KI chat that should make it much easier to chat.

(05/01 13:13:30)PodHopper: oh?

(05/01 13:13:36)Doobes: For instance, avatar names and KI commands are now case insensitive, so you could potentially PM me by typing /p Doobes, /p doobes, /p DooBES, etc. or /roll, /ROLL, /rOlL, and so on.

(05/01 13:13:57)Doobes: So if you mistype something, you won’t have to repeatedly tap the backspace key and retype or get that pesky “no such command” error as often.

(05/01 13:14:17)Doobes: You will also be able to partially type an avatar’s name, then hit TAB to autocomplete their name. If there’s multiples, you can continue hitting TAB until the correct name is displayed.

(05/01 13:14:32)Thumbs up from MindWalker

(05/01 13:14:38)Emor D’ni Lap: nice

(05/01 13:14:42)Boywhith: Nice!

(05/01 13:14:45)Doobes: Lastly, you can now hit the UP and DOWN arrows to cycle through previous KI chat and commands. It can save the last 50 you used!

(05/01 13:15:07)Ro”Jethhe is amazed!

(05/01 13:15:12)PodHopper does a dance

(05/01 13:15:14)Doobes: We’re also bringing the fabled aspect ratio and resolution corrections from the H’uru client! No longer will you be subjected to a squished URU if you go widescreen.

(05/01 13:15:33)TikiBear: But, it’s so slimming!

(05/01 13:15:41)Doobes: 😛

(05/01 13:15:45)Doobes: Fullscreen will also automatically use your native resolution, so no need to adjust anything if you choose that option.

(05/01 13:15:46)ametist’ laughs

(05/01 13:15:55)GooberChilla gasps

(05/01 13:16:05)Thumbs up from Argo

(05/01 13:16:08)Doobes: And last, but certainly not least, a fix from Hoikas will take care of that incredibly dark Relto hut bug some have been experiencing when the windows are closed.

(05/01 13:16:15)Marten: Here too, you can blame the pandemic for everyone’s waists getting larger. 😉

(05/01 13:16:30)Tweek: Indeed

(05/01 13:16:48)Doobes: I’m not sure if I described anything incorrectly there, but I think I got the gist of it. If anyone needs to correct me, feel free. 😉

(05/01 13:17:00)Doobes: This is what it’s all about, my friends. Fine tuning, improving upon, and adding to the game we all know and love.

(05/01 13:17:14)Doobes: I do apologize that we weren’t able to hit the late April mark, but these things are tough to pin down.

(05/01 13:17:29)Doobes: We definitely need to thank everyone who put in the hard work to this upcoming update as this batch of fixes is nothing short of impressive.

(05/01 13:17:50)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:17:51)Marten: I didn’t have any involvement in the clock fixes. So I don’t deserve any credit there.

(05/01 13:17:58)Ro”Jethhe: This mind blowing!

(05/01 13:18:01)Doobes: And I definitely need to give kudos to Chogon once again. He’s been very patient, understanding, and quite enthusiastic with what we’ve been doing since long before that first big update last year.

(05/01 13:18:02)Emor D’ni Lap: hooray for the tech gang!

(05/01 13:18:17)Emor D’ni Lap: Praise the Universe for Chogon

(05/01 13:18:19)Doobes: (AND when I pester him about flipping on and off GoMe Pub SDL states 😛 ).

(05/01 13:18:24)Doobes laughs

(05/01 13:18:27)Creekwriter: Yahoo!

(05/01 13:18:32)Korov’ev: heh

(05/01 13:18:37)Doobes: Without him, we’d be dead in the water on all this…so thank him if you get the chance to do so! And I for one hope he enjoyed his well-earned vacation recently! 😀

(05/01 13:19:01)Doobes: Also, March was a *very* good month for the CAVCON. Your donations continue to keep things running and the content machine turning here…

(05/01 13:19:14)ametist’ thinks Chogon rocks 🙂

(05/01 13:19:24)Doobes: …so THANK YOU! And keep kicking in when you can. Every little bit helps!

(05/01 13:19:37)Doobes: On that note, any questions?

(05/01 13:19:47)Korov’ev: one:

(05/01 13:19:53)Korov’ev: actually two

(05/01 13:19:55)Doobes nods

(05/01 13:19:59)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Theo.

(05/01 13:19:59)Korov’ev: [Theo] Will the case insensitivity fix apply to “cleardaImager”?

(05/01 13:20:20)Marten: It should.

(05/01 13:20:20)Doobes: Ooo…that, I’m not sure. I think that’s case sensitive for a reason?

(05/01 13:20:25)Ro”Jethhe: Good question thoe

(05/01 13:20:25)Doobes shrugs

(05/01 13:20:41)Argo: isnt that an imager upload rather than a text command?

(05/01 13:20:46)Doobes: Indeed. I’m sure someone wiser than myself on the Python aspect of things could answer that better. Sorry. :S

(05/01 13:20:55)Korov’ev: noted for later 😉

(05/01 13:21:00)Korov’ev: Our next question is from shokhootahn Rehn.

(05/01 13:21:00)Korov’ev: [shokhootahn Rehn] Question for Doobes: Are the neighborhood clocks not working off the server or are they still keyed to the clients? Wil everyone see the same time or will some still see a different time, as before?

(05/01 13:22:03)Doobes: I think that’s something that’s set when the hood is created. I believe it’s similar to the Eder Gira day/night cycle being different for vaiours instances.

(05/01 13:22:25)Korov’ev: calculation is based on UTC, so it should be the same for everyone

(05/01 13:22:41)Doobes: Again, I’m not the tech-head. Just presenting the good news. But these are great questions! You should hang out in the OpneURU Discord for the real skinny on things.

(05/01 13:22:53)Doobes: *OpenURU

(05/01 13:23:05)Korov’ev: Our next question is from CaptainQuery.

(05/01 13:23:06)Korov’ev: [CaptainQuery] How are things progressing on Doobes’ own age projects?

(05/01 13:23:19)Doobes: If you’re not against spoilers, it’s where the majority of discussion for what’s going here at some point.

(05/01 13:23:47)Doobes: Ah, now THAT I can answer. Now that I’ve finished (for now) this batch of great work from other Age builders, I’m going back to work on my own stuff.

(05/01 13:24:03)Doobes: Next up will most likely be the Vale. What comes after that?

(05/01 13:24:08)Doobes: You’ll see. 😛

(05/01 13:24:15)Doobes laughs

(05/01 13:24:34)ametist’ smiles

(05/01 13:24:34)Doobes: If there’s no more questions, I’ll free up the stage. 🙂

(05/01 13:24:42)Korov’ev: Thank you Doobes!

(05/01 13:24:45)Doobes bows

(05/01 13:24:46)cjherkeless is extremely grateful we have Doobes

(05/01 13:24:56)darkwingduck: thanks doobes:)

(05/01 13:25:01)GooberChilla claps their ahnds

(05/01 13:25:18)Korov’ev: Now, some news from OpenUru, from Rarified!

(05/01 13:25:22)Doobes: Remember…not just me. LOTS of people made this update happen and they’re all awesome. 🙂

(05/01 13:25:38)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:25:40)Emor D’ni Lap applauds rarified

(05/01 13:25:41)Marten: But if you don’t like the update, throw all your tomatoes at Doobes! 😉

(05/01 13:25:50)rarified: As always, Shorah all!

(05/01 13:25:57)shokhootahn Rehn laughs at Marten

(05/01 13:26:11)Doobes can take the heat…and tomatoes

(05/01 13:26:12)GooberChilla adds tomatoes to their shopping list

(05/01 13:26:19)rarified: As mentioned we’ve delivered a big bundle to Cyan and it will go live on May 5th.

(05/01 13:26:38)Marten: Cinco de MOULa-o.

(05/01 13:26:50)rarified: It contains both content and client repairs. Doobes has already gone down my list 🙂

(05/01 13:27:06)Doobes: I’m hoping you’ll be better with the tech questions than I was. 😀

(05/01 13:27:17)rarified: But… I want to mention a couple of us have been working to improve

(05/01 13:27:36)rarified: the ability of to add fixes and improvements to the client.

(05/01 13:28:17)rarified: I’d like to acknowledge Marten, who has taken the bull by the horns, and

(05/01 13:28:36)rarified: started looking at user/driver improvements, whereas I still am down where

(05/01 13:28:51)rarified: the mushrooms grow fixing things below.

(05/01 13:29:03)rarified: Marten, do you want to take a bow or come down her?

(05/01 13:29:03)Doobes: 😛

(05/01 13:29:10)rarified: here?

(05/01 13:29:18)Marten bows

(05/01 13:29:21)Doobes readies some tomatoes >:D

(05/01 13:29:27)Emor D’ni Lap thanks Marten

(05/01 13:29:28)TikiBear: DI VA DI VA DI VA

(05/01 13:29:33)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:29:49)rarified: I believe Marten has put out a call for fans to list their most wantedd

(05/01 13:30:05)rarified: improvements to the client interface and behavior. If you have input of that

(05/01 13:30:20)rarified: kind, please visit the OpenUru discord channels, either #hood or #dev

(05/01 13:30:26)rarified: and let us know.

(05/01 13:30:27)Marten: I’ve really just been pressuring rarified to go faster, and taking the hard work of others and porting it over. Nothing special. But yes! Let me know what features you want ported from H’uru. (Frame rate unlock is high on the next list.)

(05/01 13:30:53)rarified: I’ve worked several iterations to make it easier for folks like Marten to

(05/01 13:30:55)Doobes: Hey, porting is important too. Hehehe.

(05/01 13:31:11)rarified: add contributions to the build pipeline, and I think we’ve

(05/01 13:31:37)rarified: vastly improved things. Don’t let Marten feel alone — if you can take

(05/01 13:31:58)rarified: time to help — moving things from the H’uru client, independent fixes,

(05/01 13:32:11)rarified: let me know and we’ll try to get you started.

(05/01 13:32:35)rarified: I still am working to bring the MOUL/Minkata client in very large chunks

(05/01 13:33:01)rarified: synchronized with the work from the GoW/H’uru team, so

(05/01 13:33:20)rarified: the MOUL client code is somewhat of a moving target. But I’ll

(05/01 13:33:29)rarified: help however I can.

(05/01 13:33:37)Marten: Yes! While we’re not on the latest Visual Studio (yet), the OU client is very easy to build now, MUCH improved from before.

(05/01 13:33:47)rarified: I also want to point out I’ve been able to streamline the content pipeline

(05/01 13:33:50)rarified: for testing.

(05/01 13:34:09)rarified: Within a week of freezing all the parts for the May 5th update, we’ve already

(05/01 13:34:32)rarified: started testing another new age. From someone not in the Doobes-machine 😀

(05/01 13:34:55)rarified: So those of you who dabbled with age creation before, but

(05/01 13:35:11)rarified: put things on the shelf because it looked like it never would happen,

(05/01 13:35:42)rarified: please PLEASE give us a shout again. Age writing is now a thing!

(05/01 13:36:00)Doobes: It can be tricky, but we’ll help you out in any way we can. 🙂

(05/01 13:36:03)Emor D’ni Lap: that’s a beautiful thing to hear, rarified

(05/01 13:36:11)Doobes: Agreed!

(05/01 13:36:18)rarified: Ok. Aside from mushroom cultivating, that’s all I have. Any questions?

(05/01 13:36:36)rarified: (For either Marten who improved the KI, or me?)

(05/01 13:36:40)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Lutra.

(05/01 13:36:40)Korov’ev: [Lutra] Question: How many active developers are now working on updates?

(05/01 13:37:07)rarified: Updates includes in my mind content and programming code. Marten and I are the

(05/01 13:37:23)rarified: primary active contributors to the MOULa client, but we’re building on the work of many

(05/01 13:37:34)rarified: of the GoW members both past and present.

(05/01 13:37:50)Doobes: All those lovely H’uru client fixes. 🙂

(05/01 13:37:51)rarified: Content has been mostly piped through Doobes, although as I said someone

(05/01 13:38:07)rarified: else has begun testing their age.

(05/01 13:38:22)Doobes: Which, again, is very exciting. 🙂

(05/01 13:38:33)Emor D’ni Lap: And Lutra, there are dozens of AGebuilders worldwide constantly developing their projects

(05/01 13:38:44)Tweek: Yep

(05/01 13:38:56)Lutra: thx for the reply.

(05/01 13:39:03)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Ro”Jethhe.

(05/01 13:39:03)Korov’ev: [Ro”Jethhe] Do you think MOULa will ever have CoD just like at Open Cave and Deep Island?

(05/01 13:39:19)rarified: I’m not sure I know what CoD is?

(05/01 13:39:19)Doobes: (City of Dimensions)

(05/01 13:39:27)Ro”Jethhe nods his head

(05/01 13:39:30)Doobes: An alternate Ae’gura with fan additions.

(05/01 13:39:31)Korov’ev: likely not wholesale

(05/01 13:39:55)rarified: If it’s built on Ae’gura’s model, I’m not sure. Remember the linking rules.

(05/01 13:40:15)rarified: If you change a book even a little, you end up on another branch of the tree of possibilities.

(05/01 13:40:35)rarified: So there may be a way to reach that alternative Ae’gura.

(05/01 13:40:55)Korov’ev: Our next question is from Evelyn.

(05/01 13:40:55)Korov’ev: [Evelyn] Does the KI fix allow us to start typing with ‘z’?

(05/01 13:41:01)Emor D’ni Lap: haha

(05/01 13:41:02)rarified: (Assuming someone found the descriptive book for Ae’gura 😉 )

(05/01 13:41:06)Doobes: Plus, some of the additions would need a bit of polish, I’d say.

(05/01 13:41:11)Marten: The fix to start typing with ‘z’ will be in a future update.

(05/01 13:41:25)Marten: Hoikas just fixed that for H’uru recently.

(05/01 13:41:27)Korov’ev: the boat ride is neat, imo

(05/01 13:41:37)Evelyn thanks you very much!

(05/01 13:42:02)Doobes would like to fully restore one of the boats for a proper cruise around the bay.

(05/01 13:42:17)rarified: A note to Evelyn — The ‘z’ key fix is related to using the “Internal” client.

(05/01 13:42:24)PodHopper prays for a Cat Relto page

(05/01 13:42:42)darkwingduck: YASSS!!! pod:)))

(05/01 13:42:43)rarified: As far as I can see with MOULa, we’ll be using the standard (non-Internal) client.

(05/01 13:42:59)cjherkeless: a real-world d’ni would already be populated with so many stray cats

(05/01 13:43:00)Marten: z is broken in External too, rarified. 🙂 But it’ll be fixed.

(05/01 13:43:09)rarified: zzzz?

(05/01 13:43:16)Ro”Jethhe: Hey and a Riven Dagger page!

(05/01 13:43:17)SAL says no cats….tigers, lions and bears are ok

(05/01 13:43:31)PodHopper: right…

(05/01 13:43:31)rarified: Ok, any more?

(05/01 13:43:39)Korov’ev: Thank you Rarified and Marten!

(05/01 13:43:42)rarified bows

(05/01 13:43:54)rarified bows at Marten.

(05/01 13:43:54)Doobes hands his claps

(05/01 13:43:56)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:44:05)cjherkeless hugs a clock

(05/01 13:44:11)Korov’ev: Continuing on the topic of fan ages,

(05/01 13:44:16)Korov’ev: the usual Fan Age Expedition update, from the Deep Island shard.

(05/01 13:44:23)Korov’ev: We spent most of April exploring Elsewhere by Denost. We’re not done yet!

(05/01 13:44:44)Korov’ev: to put it mildly 🙂

(05/01 13:44:48)Korov’ev: For May, the plan is to finish Elsewhere, then visit Lonirvan by Jhon J. Jaguar, and later revisit Cathedral by DenDwaler.

(05/01 13:44:57)Korov’ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard Hood (you can get there quickly with “/hood”).

(05/01 13:44:58)ametist’ swims in her sleep lately 🙂

(05/01 13:45:10)Korov’ev: There’s also a (mute) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort

(05/01 13:45:35)Korov’ev: although while we’re in Elsewhere, we meet there 🙂

(05/01 13:45:43)Korov’ev: Radio Free D’ni will start right after with the preshow, at 12:30 KIT.

(05/01 13:45:59)rarified: I always used “,” and “.” for strafe.

(05/01 13:46:03)Korov’ev: And now, the monthly update from r’Tayrtahn, aka Shokhootahn Rehn!

(05/01 13:46:22)Korov’ev: ahhaaahhah!

(05/01 13:46:23)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:46:30)PodHopper: eeeh?

(05/01 13:46:36)Korov’ev: Rehn?

(05/01 13:46:42)Korov’ev: oh 🙂

(05/01 13:46:57)shokhootahn Rehn: !shorah

(05/01 13:47:01)Emor D’ni Lap applauds Rehn

(05/01 13:47:01)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.

(05/01 13:47:17)shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(05/01 13:47:46)shokhootahn Rehn: There are no evening classes available, at the moment. There are daytime openings on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, starting at either 12:00 KI time, 13:00 KI time, or 14:00 KI time depending on the student’s schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time.

(05/01 13:48:20)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.

(05/01 13:48:39)shokhootahn Rehn: Now for some exciting news…

(05/01 13:49:21)shokhootahn Rehn: Currently there are seven (SEVEN!) students taking the classes and are at various stages of completion.

(05/01 13:49:34)Korov’ev: wow

(05/01 13:49:41)Doobes: Nice!

(05/01 13:49:44)shokhootahn Rehn: 😀

(05/01 13:49:54)shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.

(05/01 13:50:12)shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(05/01 13:50:28)Korov’ev: none in queue

(05/01 13:50:33)shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…

(05/01 13:50:48)shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(05/01 13:51:01)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is, currently, in synch with original Story Night.

(05/01 13:51:12)shokhootahn Rehn: We have started the story from the Book of D’ni. Today we are on part four of eight of the stories.

(05/01 13:51:41)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(05/01 13:51:53)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.

(05/01 13:52:16)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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.

(05/01 13:52:40)shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood. (cancelations, etc.)

(05/01 13:53:03)shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(05/01 13:53:31)shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(05/01 13:53:43)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 so it must be added to the body of the text.

(05/01 13:54:09)shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED! (caps for emphasis, not for shouting)

(05/01 13:54:44)shokhootahn Rehn hopes he didn’t hurt anyone’s ears

(05/01 13:54:51)PodHopper checks his hearing aids

(05/01 13:54:52)Doobes: What???

(05/01 13:54:56)Doobes: j/k

(05/01 13:55:01)Korov’ev: ow, ow, ow…

(05/01 13:55:03)rarified ‘s ears ring all the time anyway

(05/01 13:55:05)shokhootahn Rehn: 😛

(05/01 13:55:11)shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI number so they were unable to be added.

(05/01 13:55:18)Korov’ev was close to the speakers

(05/01 13:55:29)shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(05/01 13:55:34)shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(05/01 13:55:35)Doobes wonders if that could be fixed too someday

(05/01 13:55:57)Korov’ev: Thank you, Rehn!

(05/01 13:55:59)shokhootahn Rehn: That would be great, Doobes!

(05/01 13:56:10)shokhootahn Rehn bows

(05/01 13:56:20)GooberChilla claps their hands

(05/01 13:56:38)Korov’ev: Time for some quick Cyan and Mysterium news:

(05/01 13:56:44)Korov’ev: The #cipher-discussions channel was opened on the Cyan Chat Discord server,

(05/01 13:56:49)Korov’ev: to discuss the codes and ciphers that are showing up more and more frequently within communication from Cyan.

(05/01 13:56:59)Korov’ev: It proved rather popular 🙂

(05/01 13:57:15)Korov’ev: As for Mysterium 2021, the Committee has announced that this year convention will be again held exclusively online. Those who already registered will be refunded.

(05/01 13:57:25)Ro”Jethhe is sorta bummed…

(05/01 13:57:25)Korov’ev: Most likely, the online convention will be held as a mix of Zoom, Discord, Twitch and Youtube, like last year.

(05/01 13:57:44)Korov’ev: Time for the summary of this month’s events (times in KI time).

(05/01 13:57:59)Korov’ev: Oh, a PSA: today’s Unwritten twitch stream is canceled, as one of the host is unavailable.

(05/01 13:58:07)Korov’ev: On the other hand, May is Unwritten anniversary month, so there will be stuff happening 😉

(05/01 13:58:18)Doobes: Yay for stuff!

(05/01 13:58:21)Korov’ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers’ Hood;

(05/01 13:58:27)Korov’ev: if you find a mistake, please let me know so I can correct it.

(05/01 13:58:32)Korov’ev: (Some events already presented by the speakers might be missing.)

(05/01 13:58:39)Korov’ev: Thursday 6 is Leefo 12, the day in 233 DE on which the first Common Library was opened in D’ni – most likely not the one in Ae’gura.

(05/01 13:58:45)Korov’ev: Friday 7 is the 20th anniversary of Myst III: Exile!

(05/01 13:58:59)Doobes: Ooo!

(05/01 13:59:04)Korov’ev: Wednesday 19 is the 14th anniversary of the Gametap first episode “Scars”, during which Minkata was released, and two characters died.

(05/01 13:59:18)darkwingduck: 20 years dude!:)

(05/01 13:59:20)cjherkeless: fourteen.

(05/01 13:59:24)Korov’ev: (Bit of a mood whiplash there)

(05/01 13:59:34)Doobes: Ayup.

(05/01 13:59:38)Korov’ev: 14?

(05/01 13:59:44)Korov’ev: oh

(05/01 13:59:59)Korov’ev: Also Saturday 22 is the Eurovision Song Contest Final, and Tuesday 25 is Towel Day.

(05/01 13:01:27) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(05/01 13:01:40) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(05/01 13:01:49) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(05/01 13:02:00) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(05/01 13:02:04) Synapse waves goodbye
(05/01 13:02:10) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(05/01 13:05:27) Minasunda: The event is intended as a little competition.
(05/01 13:05:37) Minasunda: It starts with simple pictures to warm up and then increases the level of difficulty.
(05/01 13:05:50) Minasunda: Whoever first writes in the chat what is displayed receives one point. A little surprise awaits the winner.
(05/01 13:06:01) Minasunda: Depending on how long it takes to solve the puzzles, Mabe will do a short show afterwards. I can assure you – this will be great.
(05/01 13:06:13) Minasunda: If there is not enough time for the show part before the start of the story night, we will soon find an appointment to show you Mabes creations.
(05/01 13:06:25) Minasunda: Eternal Seeker will also take over the music stream for this event. www.urutunes.com/Seeker

(05/01 13:10:08) Doobes: Note that all three new Ages won't be available at once. When will they appear? You'll just have to wait and see. 😛
(05/01 13:10:25) Doobes: Yes, I know…that's a *huge* tease, but think of it like the Gametap days before episodes. You never know what'll happen or how!
(05/01 13:10:36) Doobes: Or when. 😀
(05/01 13:10:36) Korov'ev: ah, the anticipation 🙂
(05/01 13:10:48) Doobes: I can tell you one of the Ages will become available soon after the update…but that's all I'll say. 😉
(05/01 13:10:54) Korov'ev: Chewy, off the stage please
(05/01 13:11:03) Doobes: So be sure to keep stopping in…just in case!
(05/01 13:11:12) Doobes: Heh, hey Chewy. 😀
(05/01 13:11:15) Creekwriter: So no looking in until 1230 KI?
(05/01 13:11:46) Korov'ev taps his foot
(05/01 13:11:48) Doobes remains tight lipped so as not to spoil anything
(05/01 13:11:56) Doobes: On top of the new Ages, we're also bringing some lovely fixes for the classic ones.
(05/01 13:11:57) TikiBear looks for Bahro bouncer
(05/01 13:12:00) ametist' smiles
(05/01 13:12:10) Doobes: Some industrious explorers have been working on fixing that unruly clock in the neighborhoods.
(05/01 13:12:28) Doobes: If you hadn't noticed, it's juuuuuust a bit off, so they wanted to correct it so we can tell real D'ni time.
(05/01 13:12:38) Korov'ev: …just a bit
(05/01 13:12:47) Doobes: Our intrepid clock repair team consists of Hoikas, Deledrius, boq, estherbolik, and Marten. It has NOT been as easy a fix as you may think, so I commend them for sticking with it. 🙂
(05/01 13:13:04) Doobes: I may have missed a few names. If I did, apologies. 😀
(05/01 13:13:16) Doobes: There's also some quality of life fixes to the KI chat that should make it much easier to chat.
(05/01 13:13:30) PodHopper: oh?
(05/01 13:13:36) Doobes: For instance, avatar names and KI commands are now case insensitive, so you could potentially PM me by typing /p Doobes, /p doobes, /p DooBES, etc. or /roll, /ROLL, /rOlL, and so on.
(05/01 13:13:46) PodHopper cheers
(05/01 13:13:57) Doobes: So if you mistype something, you won't have to repeatedly tap the backspace key and retype or get that pesky "no such command" error as often.
(05/01 13:14:17) Doobes: You will also be able to partially type an avatar's name, then hit TAB to autocomplete their name. If there's multiples, you can continue hitting TAB until the correct name is displayed.
(05/01 13:14:19) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(05/01 13:14:26) Argo claps her hands

(05/01 13:14:32) Thumbs up from MindWalker
(05/01 13:14:38) Emor D'ni Lap: nice
(05/01 13:14:41) Grandbad claps his hands
(05/01 13:14:42) Boywhith: Nice!
(05/01 13:14:45) Doobes: Lastly, you can now hit the UP and DOWN arrows to cycle through previous KI chat and commands. It can save the last 50 you used!
(05/01 13:15:03) PodHopper cheers
(05/01 13:15:06) SandDoone claps her hands
(05/01 13:15:07) Ro"Jethhe is amazed!
(05/01 13:15:12) PodHopper does a dance
(05/01 13:15:14) Doobes: We're also bringing the fabled aspect ratio and resolution corrections from the H'uru client! No longer will you be subjected to a squished URU if you go widescreen.
(05/01 13:15:33) TikiBear: But, it's so slimming!
(05/01 13:15:41) Doobes: 😛
(05/01 13:15:45) Doobes: Fullscreen will also automatically use your native resolution, so no need to adjust anything if you choose that option.
(05/01 13:15:46) ametist' laughs
(05/01 13:15:55) GooberChilla gasps
(05/01 13:16:05) Thumbs up from Argo
(05/01 13:16:08) Doobes: And last, but certainly not least, a fix from Hoikas will take care of that incredibly dark Relto hut bug some have been experiencing when the windows are closed.
(05/01 13:16:15) Marten: Here too, you can blame the pandemic for everyone's waists getting larger. 😉
(05/01 13:16:30) Tweek: Indeed
(05/01 13:16:48) Doobes: I'm not sure if I described anything incorrectly there, but I think I got the gist of it. If anyone needs to correct me, feel free. 😉
(05/01 13:17:00) Doobes: This is what it's all about, my friends. Fine tuning, improving upon, and adding to the game we all know and love.
(05/01 13:17:14) Doobes: I do apologize that we weren't able to hit the late April mark, but these things are tough to pin down.
(05/01 13:17:19) Grandbad cheers
(05/01 13:17:26) Boywhith claps his hands
(05/01 13:17:29) Doobes: We definitely need to thank everyone who put in the hard work to this upcoming update as this batch of fixes is nothing short of impressive.

(05/01 13:17:51) Marten: I didn't have any involvement in the clock fixes. So I don't deserve any credit there.
(05/01 13:17:58) Ro"Jethhe: This mind blowing!
(05/01 13:18:01) Doobes: And I definitely need to give kudos to Chogon once again. He's been very patient, understanding, and quite enthusiastic with what we've been doing since long before that first big update last year.
(05/01 13:18:02) Emor D'ni Lap: hooray for the tech gang!
(05/01 13:18:17) Emor D'ni Lap: Praise the Universe for Chogon
(05/01 13:18:19) Doobes: (AND when I pester him about flipping on and off GoMe Pub SDL states 😛 ).
(05/01 13:18:24) Doobes laughs
(05/01 13:18:27) Creekwriter: Yahoo!
(05/01 13:18:30) Marten cheers
(05/01 13:18:32) Korov'ev: heh
(05/01 13:18:37) Doobes: Without him, we'd be dead in the water on all this…so thank him if you get the chance to do so! And I for one hope he enjoyed his well-earned vacation recently! 😀
(05/01 13:19:01) Doobes: Also, March was a *very* good month for the CAVCON. Your donations continue to keep things running and the content machine turning here…
(05/01 13:19:14) ametist' thinks Chogon rocks 🙂
(05/01 13:19:24) Doobes: …so THANK YOU! And keep kicking in when you can. Every little bit helps!
(05/01 13:19:37) Doobes: On that note, any questions?
(05/01 13:19:47) Korov'ev: one:
(05/01 13:19:53) Korov'ev: actually two
(05/01 13:19:55) Doobes nods
(05/01 13:19:59) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Theo.
(05/01 13:19:59) Korov'ev: [Theo] Will the case insensitivity fix apply to "cleardaImager"?
(05/01 13:20:20) Marten: It should.
(05/01 13:20:20) Doobes: Ooo…that, I'm not sure. I think that's case sensitive for a reason?
(05/01 13:20:25) Ro"Jethhe: Good question thoe
(05/01 13:20:25) Doobes shrugs
(05/01 13:20:41) Argo: isnt that an imager upload rather than a text command?
(05/01 13:20:46) Doobes: Indeed. I'm sure someone wiser than myself on the Python aspect of things could answer that better. Sorry. :S
(05/01 13:20:55) Korov'ev: noted for later 😉
(05/01 13:21:00) Korov'ev: Our next question is from shokhootahn Rehn.
(05/01 13:21:00) Korov'ev: [shokhootahn Rehn] Question for Doobes: Are the neighborhood clocks not working off the server or are they still keyed to the clients? Wil everyone see the same time or will some still see a different time, as before?
(05/01 13:22:03) Doobes: I think that's something that's set when the hood is created. I believe it's similar to the Eder Gira day/night cycle being different for vaiours instances.
(05/01 13:22:25) Korov'ev: calculation is based on UTC, so it should be the same for everyone
(05/01 13:22:41) Doobes: Again, I'm not the tech-head. Just presenting the good news. But these are great questions! You should hang out in the OpneURU Discord for the real skinny on things.
(05/01 13:22:53) Doobes: *OpenURU
(05/01 13:23:05) Korov'ev: Our next question is from CaptainQuery.
(05/01 13:23:06) Korov'ev: [CaptainQuery] How are things progressing on Doobes' own age projects?
(05/01 13:23:19) Doobes: If you're not against spoilers, it's where the majority of discussion for what's going here at some point.
(05/01 13:23:47) Doobes: Ah, now THAT I can answer. Now that I've finished (for now) this batch of great work from other Age builders, I'm going back to work on my own stuff.
(05/01 13:24:03) Doobes: Next up will most likely be the Vale. What comes after that?
(05/01 13:24:07) Grandbad claps his hands
(05/01 13:24:08) Doobes: You'll see. 😛
(05/01 13:24:15) Doobes laughs
(05/01 13:24:16) Korov'ev cheers

(05/01 13:26:11) Doobes can take the heat…and tomatoes
(05/01 13:26:12) GooberChilla adds tomatoes to their shopping list
(05/01 13:26:19) rarified: As mentioned we've delivered a big bundle to Cyan and it will go live on May 5th.
(05/01 13:26:38) Marten: Cinco de MOULa-o.
(05/01 13:26:50) rarified: It contains both content and client repairs. Doobes has already gone down my list 🙂
(05/01 13:27:06) Doobes: I'm hoping you'll be better with the tech questions than I was. 😀
(05/01 13:27:17) rarified: But… I want to mention a couple of us have been working to improve
(05/01 13:27:36) rarified: the ability of to add fixes and improvements to the client.
(05/01 13:28:17) rarified: I'd like to acknowledge Marten, who has taken the bull by the horns, and
(05/01 13:28:36) rarified: started looking at user/driver improvements, whereas I still am down where
(05/01 13:28:51) rarified: the mushrooms grow fixing things below.
(05/01 13:29:03) rarified: Marten, do you want to take a bow or come down her?
(05/01 13:29:03) Doobes: 😛
(05/01 13:29:10) rarified: here?
(05/01 13:29:18) Marten bows

(05/01 13:29:33) GooberChilla claps their hands
(05/01 13:29:49) rarified: I believe Marten has put out a call for fans to list their most wantedd
(05/01 13:30:05) rarified: improvements to the client interface and behavior. If you have input of that
(05/01 13:30:20) rarified: kind, please visit the OpenUru discord channels, either #hood or #dev
(05/01 13:30:26) rarified: and let us know.
(05/01 13:30:27) Marten: I've really just been pressuring rarified to go faster, and taking the hard work of others and porting it over. Nothing special. But yes! Let me know what features you want ported from H'uru. (Frame rate unlock is high on the next list.)
(05/01 13:30:53) rarified: I've worked several iterations to make it easier for folks like Marten to
(05/01 13:30:55) Doobes: Hey, porting is important too. Hehehe.
(05/01 13:31:11) rarified: add contributions to the build pipeline, and I think we've
(05/01 13:31:37) rarified: vastly improved things. Don't let Marten feel alone — if you can take
(05/01 13:31:58) rarified: time to help — moving things from the H'uru client, independent fixes,
(05/01 13:32:11) rarified: let me know and we'll try to get you started.
(05/01 13:32:35) rarified: I still am working to bring the MOUL/Minkata client in very large chunks
(05/01 13:33:01) rarified: synchronized with the work from the GoW/H'uru team, so
(05/01 13:33:20) rarified: the MOUL client code is somewhat of a moving target. But I'll
(05/01 13:33:29) rarified: help however I can.
(05/01 13:33:37) Marten: Yes! While we're not on the latest Visual Studio (yet), the OU client is very easy to build now, MUCH improved from before.
(05/01 13:33:47) rarified: I also want to point out I've been able to streamline the content pipeline
(05/01 13:33:50) rarified: for testing.
(05/01 13:34:09) rarified: Within a week of freezing all the parts for the May 5th update, we've already
(05/01 13:34:32) rarified: started testing another new age. From someone not in the Doobes-machine 😀
(05/01 13:34:51) Grandbad claps his hands
(05/01 13:34:55) Argo claps her hands
(05/01 13:34:55) rarified: So those of you who dabbled with age creation before, but
(05/01 13:35:00) SandDoone claps her hands
(05/01 13:35:11) rarified: put things on the shelf because it looked like it never would happen,
(05/01 13:35:42) rarified: please PLEASE give us a shout again. Age writing is now a thing!
(05/01 13:35:52) ametist' cheers
(05/01 13:35:56) Karel cheers
(05/01 13:35:59) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(05/01 13:36:00) Doobes: It can be tricky, but we'll help you out in any way we can. 🙂
(05/01 13:36:03) Emor D'ni Lap: that's a beautiful thing to hear, rarified
(05/01 13:36:05) GooberChilla cheers
(05/01 13:36:11) Doobes: Agreed!
(05/01 13:36:18) rarified: Ok. Aside from mushroom cultivating, that's all I have. Any questions?
(05/01 13:36:36) rarified: (For either Marten who improved the KI, or me?)
(05/01 13:36:40) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Lutra.
(05/01 13:36:40) Korov'ev: [Lutra] Question: How many active developers are now working on updates?
(05/01 13:37:07) rarified: Updates includes in my mind content and programming code. Marten and I are the
(05/01 13:37:23) rarified: primary active contributors to the MOULa client, but we're building on the work of many
(05/01 13:37:34) rarified: of the GoW members both past and present.
(05/01 13:37:50) Doobes: All those lovely H'uru client fixes. 🙂
(05/01 13:37:51) rarified: Content has been mostly piped through Doobes, although as I said someone
(05/01 13:38:07) rarified: else has begun testing their age.
(05/01 13:38:22) Doobes: Which, again, is very exciting. 🙂
(05/01 13:38:33) Emor D'ni Lap: And Lutra, there are dozens of AGebuilders worldwide constantly developing their projects
(05/01 13:38:44) Tweek: Yep
(05/01 13:38:56) Lutra: thx for the reply.
(05/01 13:39:03) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Ro"Jethhe.
(05/01 13:39:03) Korov'ev: [Ro"Jethhe] Do you think MOULa will ever have CoD just like at Open Cave and Deep Island?
(05/01 13:39:19) rarified: I'm not sure I know what CoD is?
(05/01 13:39:19) Doobes: (City of Dimensions)
(05/01 13:39:27) Ro"Jethhe nods his head
(05/01 13:39:30) Doobes: An alternate Ae'gura with fan additions.
(05/01 13:39:31) Korov'ev: likely not wholesale
(05/01 13:39:55) rarified: If it's built on Ae'gura's model, I'm not sure. Remember the linking rules.
(05/01 13:40:15) rarified: If you change a book even a little, you end up on another branch of the tree of possibilities.
(05/01 13:40:25) Grandbad says Three cheers to the Age builders 🙂
(05/01 13:40:35) rarified: So there may be a way to reach that alternative Ae'gura.
(05/01 13:40:55) Korov'ev: Our next question is from Evelyn.
(05/01 13:40:55) Korov'ev: [Evelyn] Does the KI fix allow us to start typing with 'z'?
(05/01 13:41:01) Emor D'ni Lap: haha
(05/01 13:41:02) rarified: (Assuming someone found the descriptive book for Ae'gura 😉 )
(05/01 13:41:06) Doobes: Plus, some of the additions would need a bit of polish, I'd say.
(05/01 13:41:11) Marten: The fix to start typing with 'z' will be in a future update.
(05/01 13:41:25) Marten: Hoikas just fixed that for H'uru recently.
(05/01 13:41:27) Korov'ev: the boat ride is neat, imo
(05/01 13:41:37) Evelyn thanks you very much!
(05/01 13:42:02) Doobes would like to fully restore one of the boats for a proper cruise around the bay.
(05/01 13:42:17) rarified: A note to Evelyn — The 'z' key fix is related to using the "Internal" client.
(05/01 13:42:24) PodHopper prays for a Cat Relto page
(05/01 13:42:42) darkwingduck: YASSS!!! pod:)))
(05/01 13:42:43) rarified: As far as I can see with MOULa, we'll be using the standard (non-Internal) client.
(05/01 13:42:59) cjherkeless: a real-world d'ni would already be populated with so many stray cats
(05/01 13:43:00) Marten: z is broken in External too, rarified. 🙂 But it'll be fixed.
(05/01 13:43:09) rarified: zzzz?
(05/01 13:43:16) Ro"Jethhe: Hey and a Riven Dagger page!
(05/01 13:43:17) SAL says no cats….tigers, lions and bears are ok
(05/01 13:43:31) PodHopper: right…
(05/01 13:43:31) rarified: Ok, any more?
(05/01 13:43:39) Korov'ev claps his hands
(05/01 13:43:39) Korov'ev: Thank you Rarified and Marten!

(05/01 13:44:23) Korov'ev: We spent most of April exploring Elsewhere by Denost. We're not done yet!
(05/01 13:44:44) Korov'ev: to put it mildly 🙂
(05/01 13:44:48) Korov'ev: For May, the plan is to finish Elsewhere, then visit Lonirvan by Jhon J. Jaguar, and later revisit Cathedral by DenDwaler.
(05/01 13:44:57) Korov'ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard Hood (you can get there quickly with "/hood").
(05/01 13:44:58) ametist' swims in her sleep lately 🙂

(05/01 13:45:35) Korov'ev: although while we're in Elsewhere, we meet there 🙂
(05/01 13:45:43) Korov'ev: Radio Free D'ni will start right after with the preshow, at 12:30 KIT.
(05/01 13:45:59) rarified: I always used "," and "." for strafe.
(05/01 13:46:03) Korov'ev: And now, the monthly update from r'Tayrtahn, aka Shokhootahn Rehn!

(05/01 13:47:01) Emor D'ni Lap applauds Rehn
(05/01 13:47:01) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D'ni Language Class and the other one is for r'Tayrtahn's Story Night.
(05/01 13:47:17) shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…
(05/01 13:47:46) shokhootahn Rehn: There are no evening classes available, at the moment. There are daytime openings on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, starting at either 12:00 KI time, 13:00 KI time, or 14:00 KI time depending on the student's schedule. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time.
(05/01 13:48:20) shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.
(05/01 13:48:39) shokhootahn Rehn: Now for some exciting news…
(05/01 13:49:21) shokhootahn Rehn: Currently there are seven (SEVEN!) students taking the classes and are at various stages of completion.
(05/01 13:49:34) Korov'ev: wow
(05/01 13:49:41) Doobes: Nice!
(05/01 13:49:44) shokhootahn Rehn: 😀
(05/01 13:49:54) shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors' Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.
(05/01 13:50:12) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?
(05/01 13:50:28) Korov'ev: none in queue
(05/01 13:50:33) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…
(05/01 13:50:48) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r'Taytahn's Story Night.
(05/01 13:51:01) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is, currently, in synch with original Story Night.
(05/01 13:51:12) shokhootahn Rehn: We have started the story from the Book of D'ni. Today we are on part four of eight of the stories.
(05/01 13:51:41) shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno's Hood every Saturday.
(05/01 13:51:53) 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.
(05/01 13:52:16) 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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.
(05/01 13:52:40) shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood. (cancelations, etc.)
(05/01 13:53:03) shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂
(05/01 13:53:31) shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.
(05/01 13:53:43) 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 so it must be added to the body of the text.
(05/01 13:54:09) shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED! (caps for emphasis, not for shouting)
(05/01 13:54:44) shokhootahn Rehn hopes he didn't hurt anyone's ears

(05/01 13:55:05) shokhootahn Rehn: 😛
(05/01 13:55:11) shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI number so they were unable to be added.
(05/01 13:55:18) Korov'ev was close to the speakers
(05/01 13:55:29) shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!
(05/01 13:55:34) shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?
(05/01 13:55:35) Doobes wonders if that could be fixed too someday
(05/01 13:55:43) Argo claps her hands

(05/01 13:56:38) Korov'ev: Time for some quick Cyan and Mysterium news:
(05/01 13:56:44) Korov'ev: The #cipher-discussions channel was opened on the Cyan Chat Discord server,
(05/01 13:56:49) Korov'ev: to discuss the codes and ciphers that are showing up more and more frequently within communication from Cyan.
(05/01 13:56:59) Korov'ev: It proved rather popular 🙂
(05/01 13:57:15) Korov'ev: As for Mysterium 2021, the Committee has announced that this year convention will be again held exclusively online. Those who already registered will be refunded.
(05/01 13:57:25) Ro"Jethhe is sorta bummed…
(05/01 13:57:25) Korov'ev: Most likely, the online convention will be held as a mix of Zoom, Discord, Twitch and Youtube, like last year.
(05/01 13:57:44) Korov'ev: Time for the summary of this month's events (times in KI time).
(05/01 13:57:59) Korov'ev: Oh, a PSA: today's Unwritten twitch stream is canceled, as one of the host is unavailable.
(05/01 13:58:07) Korov'ev: On the other hand, May is Unwritten anniversary month, so there will be stuff happening 😉
(05/01 13:58:18) Doobes: Yay for stuff!
(05/01 13:58:21) Korov'ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers' Hood;
(05/01 13:58:27) Korov'ev: if you find a mistake, please let me know so I can correct it.
(05/01 13:58:32) Korov'ev: (Some events already presented by the speakers might be missing.)
(05/01 13:58:39) Korov'ev: Thursday 6 is Leefo 12, the day in 233 DE on which the first Common Library was opened in D'ni – most likely not the one in Ae'gura.
(05/01 13:58:45) Korov'ev: Friday 7 is the 20th anniversary of Myst III: Exile!
(05/01 13:58:58) shokhootahn Rehn cheers
(05/01 13:58:59) Doobes: Ooo!
(05/01 13:59:04) Korov'ev: Wednesday 19 is the 14th anniversary of the Gametap first episode "Scars", during which Minkata was released, and two characters died.
(05/01 13:59:18) darkwingduck: 20 years dude!:)
(05/01 13:59:20) cjherkeless: fourteen.
(05/01 13:59:24) Korov'ev: (Bit of a mood whiplash there)
(05/01 13:59:34) Doobes: Ayup.
(05/01 13:59:38) Korov'ev: 14?
(05/01 13:59:44) Korov'ev: oh
(05/01 13:59:59) Korov'ev: Also Saturday 22 is the Eurovision Song Contest Final, and Tuesday 25 is Towel Day.
(05/01 14:00:10) Korov'ev: Now, for what's going on in the Cavern itself:

(04/03 13:01:22)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(04/03 13:01:32)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(04/03 13:01:40)Korov’ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you’re ready for the next question.

(04/03 13:01:52)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(04/03 13:01:59)Korov’ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers’ site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/

(04/03 13:02:06)Korov’ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with “/startlog”.

(04/03 13:02:25)Korov’ev: First, let’s hear about upcoming events – and more importantly, parties – in the Cavern, from Minasunda!

(04/03 13:02:34)Karel waves hello

(04/03 13:02:44)Minasunda says hey

(04/03 13:02:58)Minasunda: April is the month in which D’ni New Year will be celebrated. We will begin the D’ni year 9677 with one of the famous light shows from our great MagicYoda.

(04/03 13:03:15)Minasunda: The place is Yoda’s secret – I don’t know either ;))) You need Mir-O-Bot in your buddy list to get to the event. His KI number is 32319 When the time comes, PM the word “link” to Mir-O-Bot and he will get you there.

(04/03 13:03:32)Minasunda: ahh yes – when will the event take place?— on April 21st at 14:00 KI – it’s a Wednesday – after Fil’s weekly live event.

(04/03 13:03:50)Minasunda: The month of April is also the month in which the Nulp Dance Group invites you to the Mother Earth Day Show.

(04/03 13:04:08)Minasunda: It’s almost a tradition. This will be the 5th Mother Earth Day with a show by the Nulp Dance Group. And it will be also the 17th show of the Nulp Dance Group.

(04/03 13:04:25)Minasunda: We invite you to Mir-O-Bot’s Ahnonay on April 24th at 12:30 KI. That means the show starts at 12:30. So there is enough time until the following story night.

(04/03 13:04:41)Minasunda: Like you know – Ahnonay is a bit difficult. We therefore have a few requests for the visitors:

(04/03 13:04:58)Minasunda: Link to Ahnonay and leaving Ahnonay can cause crashes for others. Therefore we ask you to come in good time before the show starts and if possible not to leave the show before the end. 😉

(04/03 13:05:14)Minasunda: Also, if you come while the show is running, you may not be able to see the special effects until the next dance starts.

(04/03 13:05:31)Minasunda: And one more point: I shouldn’t really have to mention this, but experience shows that not for everyone this is self-evident. The ambience is part of the show – please respect that and don’t make any changes.

(04/03 13:05:51)Minasunda: A hint for the best spectator place: The show is concentrated in the center of the pool, where the sensor is normally located. Only the second dance is at the waterfall.

(04/03 13:06:07)Minasunda: On top of the rocks you will NOT have a good view of what is going on. We use fog for the ambience, which obscures your view a bit in the upper areas. I’ll post a picture on Facebook and Discord to show you the best places for a good view.

(04/03 13:06:31)Minasunda: The music stream for both events will be www.urutunes.com/Seeker — Danke ET for never saying NO when I asked you to stream :))

(04/03 13:06:49)Minasunda: For the Ahnonay Show we had more rehearsals than for any other show.

(04/03 13:07:03)Minasunda: I would like to thank my loyal dancers Claidi, Calisia, tsuno, Thallane, ondine, Seeker, Mabe, Willy, vony and Roland for their patience.

(04/03 13:07:18)Minasunda: It’s not easy for you. In addition to investing your time, you must also fight against dizziness and other inconveniences. Thank you :)))))

(04/03 13:07:37)Minasunda: And I would also like to say thank you very much to Mirphak and Yoda. You are always there when I need you and you always have an open ear for my wishes – no matter how unusual they are ;))) MERCI

(04/03 13:07:53)Minasunda: Another event is planned for May 15th. But more about this at the AGM in May 😉

(04/03 13:08:09)Minasunda: I have one more point: we’ve all noticed that Mir-O-Bot has crashed a lot lately. Maybe we can prevent that if we treat the poor bot a little more carefully.

(04/03 13:08:24)Minasunda: I suspect it could help if everyone deactivates the effects they have activated themselves before we leave the bot or send him to another age. This is just a suggestion from me. Let’s see if that helps.

(04/03 13:08:55)Minasunda: That’s all for now. thank you for your patience. :)) Any questions ?

(04/03 13:09:12)Korov’ev: None in queue

(04/03 13:09:16)Korov’ev: Thank you Minasunda!

(04/03 13:09:19)Minasunda thanks you

(04/03 13:09:23)Minasunda bows

(04/03 13:09:47)Korov’ev: Time for some news on the open source front. Let’s welcome Hoikas!

(04/03 13:10:15)Adam {Hoikas}: Quickly this time, because I have no notes to drop =P

(04/03 13:10:35)Adam {Hoikas}: It has been many (many, many) moons since the last release of the Gehn Shard

(04/03 13:10:49)Patrick Dulebohn quickly drops his notes…then scoops them up

(04/03 13:11:02)Adam {Hoikas}: I am (supposed to be) happy to say that it will (finally) receive an update… hopefully this month =P

(04/03 13:11:05)Till Ameisenspiegel quickly copies them

(04/03 13:11:18)Adam {Hoikas}: The other team members gave me a deadline. We’ll see if we meet it 😉

(04/03 13:11:31)Bobbie Soks: 2012

(04/03 13:11:34)Patrick Dulebohn: Heh.

(04/03 13:11:34)Adam {Hoikas}: The release highlights are too numerous to mention

(04/03 13:11:45)Adam {Hoikas}: er, all of them that is

(04/03 13:12:10)Adam {Hoikas}: Briefly: you get the new PhysX 4.1 physics engine, update to Python 3, and a fix for the Relto hut darkness bug

(04/03 13:12:27)Adam {Hoikas}: and of course, all the updates to Doobes’s Ages that have appeared here

(04/03 13:12:35)Adam {Hoikas}: and that’s all I’ve got Korov’ev 🙂

(04/03 13:12:45)Korov’ev: Nice!

(04/03 13:12:51)Korov’ev: Thank you Adam!

(04/03 13:12:51)Adam {Hoikas}: like I said, short and sweet =P

(04/03 13:13:02)Briggs: Thanks for banishing the darkness

(04/03 13:13:08)Marten: *applauds*

(04/03 13:13:15)Korov’ev: Now, some updates on the age restoration project. Let’s hear from Patrick!

(04/03 13:13:18)Till Ameisenspiegel: will more extensive notes be on the forum?

(04/03 13:13:34)Patrick Dulebohn: Shorah!

(04/03 13:13:42)Patrick Dulebohn: Here we are again at the All Guilds Meeting. I have some updates on our ongoing work to share!

(04/03 13:13:56)Patrick Dulebohn: As I said last time I was here, we have two Ages and a cavern location on deck to be reopened…and it will hopefully be starting later this month!

(04/03 13:14:11)Patrick Dulebohn: We plan to release these Ages on a very loose schedule so as to keep each a surprise, and we’ll begin with the Age of Serene.

(04/03 13:14:27)Patrick Dulebohn: I’m happy to report that the snowstorms have stopped completely for now, and despite the high winds and freezing temperatures during that time, there was no damage to the surrounding areas that would require cleanup or repair.

(04/03 13:14:47)Patrick Dulebohn: So after a few checks, that will most likely be the first Age to be opened to you all.

(04/03 13:15:06)Patrick Dulebohn: While we don’t have an exact date in mind, again, we plan for near the end of this month. Sometime soon after, I would like to have a little get-together in the Age to celebrate Andy Legate, the man who restored it originally.

(04/03 13:15:30)Patrick Dulebohn: Next up will be the Age of Tre’bivdil, originally restored by Lontahv.

(04/03 13:15:43)Patrick Dulebohn: While the sea has calmed and the Age has mostly dried out, the “downstairs” area is still off-limits due to excessive flood damage.

(04/03 13:16:02)Patrick Dulebohn: We’re not sure if we’ll be able to fix it, but we’ll keep hoping. Lontahv knew the Age in and out, so we would need him to truly complete the work.

(04/03 13:16:15)Patrick Dulebohn: Maybe someday.

(04/03 13:16:29)Patrick Dulebohn: Lastly, we’ll be opening up the cavern location of Vothol Gallery, some of Rustee’s restoration work.

(04/03 13:16:44)Patrick Dulebohn: We were able to remove the debris from the entryway and, while one piece was too large to be rid of entirely, we were able to use it as a nice place to put the Linking Book back to Chiso.

(04/03 13:17:06)Patrick Dulebohn: Even so, there’s still plenty of stability checks that will need to be done to make sure another cave in won’t happen.

(04/03 13:17:20)Patrick Dulebohn: So it’ll probably be the last of the three legacy locations that will be opened.

(04/03 13:17:43)Patrick Dulebohn: That’s what I’ve got for now as far as new Books scheduled for imminent release. April and May should be an exciting couple of months!

(04/03 13:17:53)Patrick Dulebohn: And I promise that that won’t be all in 2021. There’s more to come!

(04/03 13:18:05)rarified ‘s ears are still ringing from drilling and hammering.

(04/03 13:18:06)Patrick Dulebohn: I definitely want to thank the volunteers who has helped get things ready for these openings, and continue to restore new places to explore. We’re learning so much and we can’t wait to share it with you all very soon.

(04/03 13:18:19)Patrick Dulebohn: Speaking of volunteers, there is someone I’d like to formally introduce to you all.

(04/03 13:18:32)Patrick Dulebohn: She was a very big help in translating the Caltauc language in Chiso as she specializes in obscure linguistics and translates them accordingly.

(04/03 13:18:45)Patrick Dulebohn: Despite being a new face to our restoration efforts, she’s been a D’ni enthusiast for many, many years.

(04/03 13:18:54)Patrick Dulebohn: Please give a very warm welcome to Kelsei A.T.!

(04/03 13:19:03)Kelsei A.T. bows

(04/03 13:19:08)Bobbie Soks bows

(04/03 13:19:30)Kelsei A.T.: Hello, All. I’m Kelsei Taylor. Though I like to joke that the “A.T.” stands for “A Translator”

(04/03 13:19:40)Patrick Dulebohn grins

(04/03 13:19:46)Till Ameisenspiegel smiles

(04/03 13:19:55)Kelsei A.T.: As Patrick said I’ve been helping with the Caltauc language translations

(04/03 13:20:30)Kelsei A.T.: I’ve also been helping Calum with some interesting almost-D’niglish style documents discovered on the Island he’s calling Vertigo Cathedral.

(04/03 13:20:52)Kelsei A.T.: It’s quite a vexing paradox to say the least.

(04/03 13:21:03)Patrick Dulebohn nods his head

(04/03 13:21:16)Kelsei A.T.: I… didn’t really prepare anything else, so I’ll just leave things to Patrick to wrap up.

(04/03 13:21:25)Patrick Dulebohn: Thank you, Kelsei!

(04/03 13:21:28)Kelsei A.T. bows

(04/03 13:21:38)Patrick Dulebohn: And on that note, I will take a couple of questions.

(04/03 13:21:53)Patrick Dulebohn: If there are any, of course.

(04/03 13:21:55)Patrick Dulebohn smiles

(04/03 13:22:02)Korov’ev: none so far 🙂

(04/03 13:22:11)Patrick Dulebohn: OK! Thank you for your time!

(04/03 13:22:18)Korov’ev: Thank you Patrick!

(04/03 13:22:34)Adam {Hoikas}: Are you the milkman?

(04/03 13:22:38)Korov’ev: And now some news from OpenUru, from Rarified!

(04/03 13:22:56)Bobbie Soks: here comes the mailman

(04/03 13:22:58)rarified waves hello

(04/03 13:23:01)rarified: Shorah all!

(04/03 13:23:11)philipgr: Shorah 🙂

(04/03 13:23:21)rarified: Mostly news about the happenings in the Minkata world.

(04/03 13:23:45)rarified: We’ve been busy doing stability checks with Patrick and others

(04/03 13:23:57)rarified: about the newly renovated ages.

(04/03 13:24:18)rarified: While this has been happening in the cordoned off areas,

(04/03 13:24:50)rarified: we’re going to open access to those who feel adventurous and wish

(04/03 13:25:01)rarified: to poke around on the main Minkata shard soon.

(04/03 13:25:20)Bobbie Soks claps again

(04/03 13:25:21)rarified: BIG SPOILER ALERT! If you join the testers, you’ll see things

(04/03 13:25:41)rarified: that may not be made accessible here for a while.

(04/03 13:25:46)rarified: But we need the testers.

(04/03 13:26:17)rarified: I’ve stated before that I’m hoping to notify Cyan about the readiness of

(04/03 13:26:39)rarified: the new areas so they can be introduced here, on a quarterly basis. More or less.

(04/03 13:26:57)rarified: April is the end of the current quarter, so things will happen here.

(04/03 13:27:17)rarified: In addition to opening new areas of the cavern, we’ve had some volunteer

(04/03 13:27:37)rarified: help in improving the game client. Those improvements will happen this month as

(04/03 13:27:41)rarified: well.

(04/03 13:27:50)Bobbie Soks: so more jalepeno in the works…? lol

(04/03 13:28:09)rarified: There has been a lot of work behind the scenes on Minkata to improve stability

(04/03 13:28:10)Till Ameisenspiegel readies Guild of Ants O2 bottles for expeditions

(04/03 13:28:38)rarified: and address the issues of introducing new age access that had not been

(04/03 13:28:57)rarified: initially designed into Minkata’s server. That work is ongoing, but shouldn’t

(04/03 13:29:10)rarified: delay handing off things to MOULa.

(04/03 13:29:38)rarified: Thanks to Marten for his help in improving the user interface with features

(04/03 13:29:48)rarified: designed by the Ghen team.

(04/03 13:29:58)rarified: And that’s all I have this time. Questions?

(04/03 13:30:09)Korov’ev: none in queue

(04/03 13:30:19)Korov’ev: Thank you Rarified!

(04/03 13:30:27)rarified: Ok. PM me here or on Discord.

(04/03 13:30:33)rarified waves goodbye

(04/03 13:30:59)Korov’ev: Continuing on the topic of fan ages,

(04/03 13:31:19)Korov’ev: (that’s this month’s theme!)

(04/03 13:31:27)Korov’ev: time for the usual Fan Age Touring Club update, from the Deep Island shard.

(04/03 13:31:35)Korov’ev: Recently, we visited the four parts of Elodea by Dulcamara, Gavster by Calena, Denkasen and Canyon by Sirius.

(04/03 13:31:46)Korov’ev: For April, the plan is to visit Shorah Pahts by Jhon J. Jaguar, Elsewhere by Denost, Lonirvan by Jhon J. Jaguar, and revisit Cathedral by DenDwaler.

(04/03 13:32:00)Korov’ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard Hood (you can get there quickly with “/hood”).

(04/03 13:32:07)Korov’ev: There’s also a (mute) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort

(04/03 13:32:11)Korov’ev: Radio Free D’ni will start right after with the preshow, at 12:30 KIT.

(04/03 13:32:29)Korov’ev: Time for some quick Cyan and Mysterium news!

(04/03 13:32:35)Korov’ev: Requirement changes for macOS Catalina and higher caused Myst IV, Myst V, and Uru: CC to stop launching.

(04/03 13:32:41)Korov’ev: Cyan is still working with Codeweavers to make the games run on these versions again and will update everyone about the completed fix as soon as it is available.

(04/03 13:32:52)Korov’ev: For April 1st Cyan announced a revolutionary, never-before seen VR gaming experience called … Myst Sayber 😀 https://cyan.com/introducing-myst-sayber/

(04/03 13:33:03)Korov’ev: The last few posts and videos from Cyan have cyphers embedded; as you can guess, the text have been quickly decoded.

(04/03 13:33:18)Korov’ev: Let’s just say they don’t hide any crucial info, buuut… 😉

(04/03 13:33:28)Kelsei A.T.: they tease us so!

(04/03 13:33:34)Korov’ev starts to laugh

(04/03 13:33:41)Korov’ev: As for Mysterium 2021, which will be held in Washington, D.C. on July 16-18:

(04/03 13:33:42)Till Ameisenspiegel: April 1st you say?

(04/03 13:33:52)Korov’ev: yes 😉

(04/03 13:33:55)Korov’ev: To help with the uncertainty brought by COVID-19, cancellation policy for registration refunds has been shortened to 45 days.

(04/03 13:34:06)Korov’ev: The Triumvirate have put together a quick survey to gauge how people are feeling about this year’s convention (the deadline is tomorrow!): https://forms.gle/jDayZLFhp5FbqFAC9

(04/03 13:34:14)Korov’ev: They are still accepting submissions for events (through May 31), activity book pages (through April 25), and the writing and artwork table (through July 1) for this year’s convention.

(04/03 13:34:39)Korov’ev: We’re already at the summary of this month’s events (times in KI time)!

(04/03 13:34:46)Korov’ev: A calendar is also present in the left imager of the Guild of Messengers’ Hood;

(04/03 13:34:52)Korov’ev: if you find a mistake, please let me know so I can correct it.

(04/03 13:34:57)Korov’ev: (Some events already presented by the speakers might be missing.)

(04/03 13:35:06)Korov’ev: Tuesday 6 is the anniversary of the release of the CWE Source, i.e. MOUL’s client;

(04/03 13:35:20)Korov’ev: it is also Leenovoo 18 in the D’ni calendar: the Day of the Circle, a celebration of the Guilds.

(04/03 13:35:33)Korov’ev: Wednesday 21 is Leefo 1st in the D’ni calendar: the D’ni New Year!

(04/03 13:01:16) Korov'ev: As usual, I'll remind you the 5 Meeting Rules:
(04/03 13:01:22) Korov'ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.
(04/03 13:01:32) Korov'ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don't ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a "?" is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.
(04/03 13:01:40) Korov'ev: 3. Speakers, please indicate when you are done speaking and ready for questions, and when you're ready for the next question.
(04/03 13:01:52) Korov'ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they've left the stage.
(04/03 13:01:59) Korov'ev: 5. A summary and a chatlog of this meeting will be published in the next few days on the Guild of Messengers' site: https://www.guildofmessengers.info/
(04/03 13:02:06) Korov'ev: Of course, you can start your own chatlog with "/startlog".
(04/03 13:02:25) Korov'ev: First, let's hear about upcoming events – and more importantly, parties – in the Cavern, from Minasunda!

(04/03 13:02:44) Minasunda says hey
(04/03 13:02:58) Minasunda: April is the month in which D'ni New Year will be celebrated. We will begin the D'ni year 9677 with one of the famous light shows from our great MagicYoda.
(04/03 13:03:15) Minasunda: The place is Yoda's secret – I don't know either ;))) You need Mir-O-Bot in your buddy list to get to the event. His KI number is 32319 When the time comes, PM the word "link" to Mir-O-Bot and he will get you there.
(04/03 13:03:32) Minasunda: ahh yes – when will the event take place?— on April 21st at 14:00 KI – it's a Wednesday – after Fil's weekly live event.
(04/03 13:03:50) Minasunda: The month of April is also the month in which the Nulp Dance Group invites you to the Mother Earth Day Show.
(04/03 13:04:08) Minasunda: It's almost a tradition. This will be the 5th Mother Earth Day with a show by the Nulp Dance Group. And it will be also the 17th show of the Nulp Dance Group.
(04/03 13:04:25) Minasunda: We invite you to Mir-O-Bot's Ahnonay on April 24th at 12:30 KI. That means the show starts at 12:30. So there is enough time until the following story night.
(04/03 13:04:41) Minasunda: Like you know – Ahnonay is a bit difficult. We therefore have a few requests for the visitors:
(04/03 13:04:58) Minasunda: Link to Ahnonay and leaving Ahnonay can cause crashes for others. Therefore we ask you to come in good time before the show starts and if possible not to leave the show before the end. 😉
(04/03 13:05:14) Minasunda: Also, if you come while the show is running, you may not be able to see the special effects until the next dance starts.
(04/03 13:05:31) Minasunda: And one more point: I shouldn't really have to mention this, but experience shows that not for everyone this is self-evident. The ambience is part of the show – please respect that and don't make any changes.
(04/03 13:05:51) Minasunda: A hint for the best spectator place: The show is concentrated in the center of the pool, where the sensor is normally located. Only the second dance is at the waterfall.
(04/03 13:06:07) Minasunda: On top of the rocks you will NOT have a good view of what is going on. We use fog for the ambience, which obscures your view a bit in the upper areas. I'll post a picture on Facebook and Discord to show you the best places for a good view.
(04/03 13:06:31) Minasunda: The music stream for both events will be www.urutunes.com/Seeker — Danke ET for never saying NO when I asked you to stream :))
(04/03 13:06:49) Minasunda: For the Ahnonay Show we had more rehearsals than for any other show.
(04/03 13:07:03) Minasunda: I would like to thank my loyal dancers Claidi, Calisia, tsuno, Thallane, ondine, Seeker, Mabe, Willy, vony and Roland for their patience.
(04/03 13:07:18) Minasunda: It's not easy for you. In addition to investing your time, you must also fight against dizziness and other inconveniences. Thank you :)))))
(04/03 13:07:37) Minasunda: And I would also like to say thank you very much to Mirphak and Yoda. You are always there when I need you and you always have an open ear for my wishes – no matter how unusual they are ;))) MERCI
(04/03 13:07:53) Minasunda: Another event is planned for May 15th. But more about this at the AGM in May 😉
(04/03 13:08:09) Minasunda: I have one more point: we've all noticed that Mir-O-Bot has crashed a lot lately. Maybe we can prevent that if we treat the poor bot a little more carefully.
(04/03 13:08:24) Minasunda: I suspect it could help if everyone deactivates the effects they have activated themselves before we leave the bot or send him to another age. This is just a suggestion from me. Let's see if that helps.
(04/03 13:08:55) Minasunda: That's all for now. thank you for your patience. :)) Any questions ?
(04/03 13:09:12) Korov'ev: None in queue
(04/03 13:09:16) Korov'ev claps his hands
(04/03 13:09:16) Korov'ev: Thank you Minasunda!

(04/03 13:10:35) Adam {Hoikas}: It has been many (many, many) moons since the last release of the Gehn Shard
(04/03 13:10:49) Patrick Dulebohn quickly drops his notes…then scoops them up
(04/03 13:11:02) Adam {Hoikas}: I am (supposed to be) happy to say that it will (finally) receive an update… hopefully this month =P
(04/03 13:11:05) Till Ameisenspiegel quickly copies them
(04/03 13:11:18) Adam {Hoikas}: The other team members gave me a deadline. We'll see if we meet it 😉
(04/03 13:11:31) Bobbie Soks: 2012
(04/03 13:11:34) Patrick Dulebohn: Heh.
(04/03 13:11:34) Adam {Hoikas}: The release highlights are too numerous to mention
(04/03 13:11:45) Adam {Hoikas}: er, all of them that is
(04/03 13:12:10) Adam {Hoikas}: Briefly: you get the new PhysX 4.1 physics engine, update to Python 3, and a fix for the Relto hut darkness bug
(04/03 13:12:27) Adam {Hoikas}: and of course, all the updates to Doobes's Ages that have appeared here
(04/03 13:12:35) Adam {Hoikas}: and that's all I've got Korov'ev 🙂

(04/03 13:13:38) Grandbad claps his hands
(04/03 13:13:42) Patrick Dulebohn: Here we are again at the All Guilds Meeting. I have some updates on our ongoing work to share!
(04/03 13:13:56) Patrick Dulebohn: As I said last time I was here, we have two Ages and a cavern location on deck to be reopened…and it will hopefully be starting later this month!
(04/03 13:13:58) Bobbie Soks claps her hands
(04/03 13:14:11) Patrick Dulebohn: We plan to release these Ages on a very loose schedule so as to keep each a surprise, and we'll begin with the Age of Serene.
(04/03 13:14:27) Patrick Dulebohn: I'm happy to report that the snowstorms have stopped completely for now, and despite the high winds and freezing temperatures during that time, there was no damage to the surrounding areas that would require cleanup or repair.
(04/03 13:14:47) Patrick Dulebohn: So after a few checks, that will most likely be the first Age to be opened to you all.
(04/03 13:15:06) Patrick Dulebohn: While we don't have an exact date in mind, again, we plan for near the end of this month. Sometime soon after, I would like to have a little get-together in the Age to celebrate Andy Legate, the man who restored it originally.
(04/03 13:15:30) Patrick Dulebohn: Next up will be the Age of Tre'bivdil, originally restored by Lontahv.
(04/03 13:15:43) Patrick Dulebohn: While the sea has calmed and the Age has mostly dried out, the "downstairs" area is still off-limits due to excessive flood damage.
(04/03 13:16:02) Patrick Dulebohn: We're not sure if we'll be able to fix it, but we'll keep hoping. Lontahv knew the Age in and out, so we would need him to truly complete the work.
(04/03 13:16:15) Patrick Dulebohn: Maybe someday.
(04/03 13:16:29) Patrick Dulebohn: Lastly, we'll be opening up the cavern location of Vothol Gallery, some of Rustee's restoration work.
(04/03 13:16:44) Patrick Dulebohn: We were able to remove the debris from the entryway and, while one piece was too large to be rid of entirely, we were able to use it as a nice place to put the Linking Book back to Chiso.
(04/03 13:17:06) Patrick Dulebohn: Even so, there's still plenty of stability checks that will need to be done to make sure another cave in won't happen.
(04/03 13:17:20) Patrick Dulebohn: So it'll probably be the last of the three legacy locations that will be opened.
(04/03 13:17:43) Patrick Dulebohn: That's what I've got for now as far as new Books scheduled for imminent release. April and May should be an exciting couple of months!
(04/03 13:17:51) Bobbie Soks claps her hands
(04/03 13:17:53) Patrick Dulebohn: And I promise that that won't be all in 2021. There's more to come!

(04/03 13:18:19) Patrick Dulebohn: Speaking of volunteers, there is someone I'd like to formally introduce to you all.
(04/03 13:18:32) Patrick Dulebohn: She was a very big help in translating the Caltauc language in Chiso as she specializes in obscure linguistics and translates them accordingly.
(04/03 13:18:45) Patrick Dulebohn: Despite being a new face to our restoration efforts, she's been a D'ni enthusiast for many, many years.
(04/03 13:18:54) Patrick Dulebohn: Please give a very warm welcome to Kelsei A.T.!

(04/03 13:19:40) Patrick Dulebohn grins
(04/03 13:19:46) Till Ameisenspiegel smiles
(04/03 13:19:55) Kelsei A.T.: As Patrick said I've been helping with the Caltauc language translations
(04/03 13:20:30) Kelsei A.T.: I've also been helping Calum with some interesting almost-D'niglish style documents discovered on the Island he's calling Vertigo Cathedral.
(04/03 13:20:52) Kelsei A.T.: It's quite a vexing paradox to say the least.
(04/03 13:21:03) Patrick Dulebohn nods his head
(04/03 13:21:16) Kelsei A.T.: I… didn't really prepare anything else, so I'll just leave things to Patrick to wrap up.

(03/06 13:02:05)Korov’ev: 1. Please *keep chatter to a minimum* while speakers are talking. The occasional comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(03/06 13:02:15)Korov’ev: 2. If you have a question for a speaker, please don’t ask it directly: PM it to me. Be sure a “?” is somewhere in it to properly log the question in the queue.

(03/06 13:02:32)Korov’ev: 4. If a question requires a long explanation, we may have to skip it to keep things moving. In that case, you can always PM any speaker once they’ve left the stage.

(03/06 13:12:53)Doobes: First up, as you may have noticed, it’s looking a bit more festive in the GoMe Pub.

(03/06 13:13:10)Thumbs up from Anatheia

(03/06 13:13:12)Doobes: With the last update, several new themes have been added. These include New Years, St. Patrick’s Day, LGBTQAI+ pride, Halloween, Fall/Thanksgiving, and Christmas/Hannukah.

(03/06 13:13:27)Doobes: Chogon has been kind enough to flip the switch on the St. Patrick’s Day’s decor, so things are looking a bit green in there…but in a good way. 😛

(03/06 13:13:43)ShilohOBrien: Love the green!

(03/06 13:13:45)Claidi Song: Irish Pub motif 🙂

(03/06 13:13:49)Doobes: It was actually his idea to turn it on at the beginning of the month. I’m glad he thought of it; in times like these, we can use a more festive atmosphere any chance we can get.

(03/06 13:13:54)Calum Traveler: its a great hue :33

(03/06 13:14:23)Doobes: Chiso Preniv and Veelay Tsahvahn also received updates. In the former, there’s some new lighting effects and, most importantly, new fan writings!

(03/06 13:14:36)Doobes: In this batch, we added the Heritage Documents and the four part “Activity in the Cavern” saga.

(03/06 13:14:55)Doobes: Plus a new book of commentary on the Age itself from little ol’ me. Hopefully, it’ll spark some imagination and get your theories running wild like the old days. 😀

(03/06 13:14:57)Thumbs up from Calum Traveler

(03/06 13:15:15)Claidi Song: Where’s the secret tunnel?

(03/06 13:15:19)Doobes: Note that this is hopefully the first of many such fan additions to Chiso. I’m willing to take anyone’s submitted stories, historical accounts, poetry, etc. and add it to the library for all to enjoy.

(03/06 13:15:23)Doobes is not telling 😛

(03/06 13:15:38)Claidi Song: 🙂

(03/06 13:15:46)Doobes: The length of text shouldn’t be a problem, but please keep any potential pictures to a small handful please. 🙂

(03/06 13:16:02)Doobes: A cover texture is recommended, but not required if you don’t mind a generic one being used.

(03/06 13:16:19)Doobes: Best way to get in touch with me about adding your work is to contact me on Discord. We can then work out the details.

(03/06 13:16:42)Doobes: Back to the updates, Veelay was mostly performance and functional fixes, so I’m hoping more people can get through the Age without it glitching up a metaphorical storm now.

(03/06 13:17:07)Doobes: From what I hear, at least one Mac user says it’s working a lot better after the update, but let me know if there are still any lingering issues!

(03/06 13:17:22)*Jodok*: i confirm

(03/06 13:17:31)Calum Traveler: briefly intruding but im collecting some bug reports on the last update, if u got any send me a ki mail.

(03/06 13:17:32)Doobes: 😀

(03/06 13:17:40)Doobes: Now then…on to the new(ish) stuff!

(03/06 13:17:51)Doobes: The next big update is already working its way through…and soon, there will be three more Ages appearing in Chiso!

(03/06 13:18:02)IwonK: :O

(03/06 13:18:11)TikiBear says yay

(03/06 13:18:15)EthanEver faints

(03/06 13:18:18)Doobes: That other guy…what was his name again?…may have told you about it at the last meeting. XD

(03/06 13:18:20)darkwingduck: interesting….

(03/06 13:18:28)Prad ‘s eyes get bigger and bigger

(03/06 13:18:32)Claidi Song starts to laugh

(03/06 13:18:32)Calum Traveler: i believe he did yes 😛

(03/06 13:18:40)Doobes: Tre’bivdil, by Lontahv, has already gone through the testing phase on Minkata, so it’s pretty much ready to go.

(03/06 13:18:57)Doobes: Currently, we’re having a look at Andy Legate’s Serene to make sure everything is working properly.

(03/06 13:19:18)Doobes: Once that’s done, it will be on to Rustee’s Vothol Gallery cavern location (now that I solved a little problem with the reflective floor).

(03/06 13:19:38)Doobes: I’m hoping we can get this ready to go by sometime late next month. We’re trying to space these updates out a bit for Chogon and Cyan’s benefit as well as the programmers improving the client…hence the slow batching of Ages.

(03/06 13:20:02)Doobes: I want to thank everyone who has helped to test things on Minkata before they go to the main show, so to speak.

(03/06 13:20:15)Calum Traveler tips their fancy green hat

(03/06 13:20:18)Doobes: And of course rarified for putting up with it all. 😀

(03/06 13:20:32)rarified grins.

(03/06 13:20:35)Doobes: Every note on each issue helps, although for the Ages that are not mine, I’m trying to keep things to purely technical or very obvious fixes while maintaining the artistic vision of each.

(03/06 13:20:54)Doobes: Not an easy task, but worth it!

(03/06 13:20:55)Korov’ev: There are some good inspectors there 🙂

(03/06 13:21:10)Doobes: Absolutely!

(03/06 13:21:15)Doobes: Once this update is out, I’ll be heading back to working on my own stuff, but if another Age comes up for consideration, I will be more than happy to lend a hand getting it ready, particularly if the original artist is involved.

(03/06 13:21:43)Doobes: I’d very much like to see one of those big puzzle Ages all polished up and making a big debut on MOULa. I think you all would too! 😉

(03/06 13:21:53)philipgr: Yes

(03/06 13:22:07)Doobes: And of course, none of this work would even be in or coming to MOULa without Korman, which recently released its latest version, 0.11(a)!

(03/06 13:22:22)Doobes: https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7239

(03/06 13:22:32)Calum Traveler can attest to the new lighting changes being a big help

(03/06 13:22:55)Doobes: Lots of talented H’uru programmers put in some more fixes and goodies into this one…plus some stuff I was able to throw in under supervision. XD

(03/06 13:23:17)Doobes: We’re getting very close to doing all the neat things the original 3DS Max plugin was able to do.

(03/06 13:23:35)Doobes: So if you want to dive into the exciting world of Age building, you can pick it and Blender 2.79b up for free at any time.

(03/06 13:23:47)Doobes: https://guildofwriters.org/wiki/Korman:Installation

(03/06 13:24:17)Doobes: More is planned for 0.12, including either custom GUI mods (ie the various notes you can click on or, more elaborately, working machinery such as the Great Zero scopes or Er’cana ovens) or particle systems!

(03/06 13:24:22)Doobes: (Hopefully)

(03/06 13:24:37)Calum Traveler is hoping for particles…

(03/06 13:24:41)Doobes: Note that can change as the work and time dictate. 😉

(03/06 13:24:44)Calum Traveler will also take the GUI stuff tho

(03/06 13:24:54)Doobes: You can keep up on the latest from the GoW at their Guild News section of their forum:

(03/06 13:25:07)Doobes: https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewforum.php?f=2

(03/06 13:25:48)Doobes: Someone PMed me about an actual release date for the new content. That has not been decided as it mostly happens when Chogon can get some time.

(03/06 13:26:09)Doobes: But hopefully, late next month…or around that time

(03/06 13:26:20)Doobes: Anyway, that’s all for now. Any questions?

(03/06 13:26:30)Calum Traveler: basically, as everyones schedules and time allows, right?

(03/06 13:26:30)*Jodok* wants to ask a question…

(03/06 13:26:37)Doobes: Exactly, Cal.

(03/06 13:26:38)Korov’ev: go ahead

(03/06 13:26:40)*Jodok*: yes a question about korma

(03/06 13:26:43)Doobes: Go ahead, Jodok.

(03/06 13:26:47)*Jodok*: is it working on mac?

(03/06 13:27:08)Doobes: It being…Korman? Blender?

(03/06 13:27:16)Doobes: If it’s the former, no, not yet.

(03/06 13:27:22)Doobes: At least not natively.

(03/06 13:27:42)Adam {Hoikas}: Blender on macOS is a little touchy. You have to run it in WINE for Korman to work.

(03/06 13:27:45)*Jodok*: ok thank you

(03/06 13:27:49)Doobes: Kor here is actually more the expert on getting Macs to do more things. 😀

(03/06 13:27:55)MindWalker: What exactly are the ‘particle systems’?

(03/06 13:28:01)*Jodok*: yes i confirm blender is not so good working on mac

(03/06 13:28:01)Calum Traveler: think fireflies

(03/06 13:28:20)Korov’ev: or snow, right?

(03/06 13:28:25)Doobes: That would be things such as the sparks that come out of the KI machine in Descent or the “stuff” that comes off the Pod portals. Stuff like that.

(03/06 13:28:28)rarified: Butterflies in your Relto.

(03/06 13:28:29)*Jodok*: thank you doobes for your answer

(03/06 13:28:30)Doobes: Or weather effects, yes.

(03/06 13:28:30)Adam {Hoikas}: or smoke

(03/06 13:28:35)Doobes: Gira/Kemo bugs.

(03/06 13:28:43)MindWalker thanks you very much!

(03/06 13:28:44)Doobes: Or fireflies rather.

(03/06 13:28:47)Doobes nods

(03/06 13:28:50)Calum Traveler: glowbugs

(03/06 13:28:54)Doobes: Any other questions?

(03/06 13:29:08)Korov’ev: Thank you Doobes!

(03/06 13:29:10)Doobes bows

(03/06 13:29:19)Jatea claps

(03/06 13:29:20)Adam {Hoikas} trolls his hands

(03/06 13:29:30)MindWalker thinks of a flying swarm of cones….

(03/06 13:29:38)John5: nice 🙂

(03/06 13:29:46)Korov’ev: And now, some news from OpenUru, from Rarified!

(03/06 13:29:48)Doobes: Heh…madness, MindWalker. I love it! 😛

(03/06 13:29:49)IwonK thinks of a flying swarm of Eddies…

(03/06 13:29:59)Calum Traveler imagines some flying crystal fragments…

(03/06 13:30:03)Jatea claps hands

(03/06 13:30:11)MindWalker: There must be an age for that!

(03/06 13:30:15)rarified hopes he’s not swarmed here 😉

(03/06 13:30:21)rarified: Shorah all!

(03/06 13:30:28)IwonK waves hello

(03/06 13:30:34)Anatheia waves hello

(03/06 13:30:36)darkwingduck waves hello

(03/06 13:30:37)Calum Traveler: shorah

(03/06 13:30:38)rarified: A set of small announcements.

(03/06 13:30:39)ScottMiller waves hello

(03/06 13:30:41)*Jodok* waves hello

(03/06 13:30:41)John5: shorah

(03/06 13:30:59)rarified: As Doobes mentioned, we’re going through some new ages on the Minkata shards.

(03/06 13:31:13)rarified: There are actually two Minkata shards, Prime and Alpha.

(03/06 13:31:33)rarified: Prime is where things are assembled together before they are delivered to Cyan to install on MOULa.

(03/06 13:31:47)rarified: But Alpha is where new ages first get tested out.

(03/06 13:32:07)rarified: The ages Doobes has talked about are making their way through Alpha right now,

(03/06 13:32:27)rarified: but soon they’ll be merged together on Prime (Just “Minkata” for the old timers).

(03/06 13:32:48)rarified: We still could use people visiting and examining this new content for things that

(03/06 13:32:51)Doobes: Many layers so they can be guaranteed fresh by the time they get here to MOULa.)

(03/06 13:32:53)rarified: “just don’t look right”.

(03/06 13:33:15)Calum Traveler: it takes a sharp eye to notice something like a missing bottom on a mug or somethin’…

(03/06 13:33:18)rarified: So, if you have time, please sign up and visit Minkata. It helps everyone contributing to MOULa.

(03/06 13:33:42)Doobes: To interject, I’d like to reiterate that, since these aren’t my Ages this time, I can’t get too wild with changes.

(03/06 13:33:54)rarified: Second, Minkata (Prime) is going to have a few user interface improvements added before the next

(03/06 13:34:03)rarified: delivery to MOUL (or so I hear).

(03/06 13:34:23)rarified: So if you’re the adventurous type…

(03/06 13:34:30)rarified: Ok, next topic…

(03/06 13:34:53)rarified: As you know, Cyan froze the MOULa forums last year and essentially moved all discussions

(03/06 13:34:59)rarified: about MOULa to Discord.

(03/06 13:35:19)rarified: Including asking for help or support for those having trouble with MOULa.

(03/06 13:35:42)rarified: In the background, I’ve been working on a support site that more resembles a

(03/06 13:36:05)rarified: place to drop an issue description, or request help (like I’ve forgotten my password).

(03/06 13:36:29)rarified: It’s still in early stages. I can’t man it all by myself, so I’m putting out calls for people

(03/06 13:36:49)rarified: who think they might have time and some ability to look at a problem and send it to the right

(03/06 13:36:54)rarified: people.

(03/06 13:37:18)rarified: The help site is publically available now, although things requested may not

(03/06 13:37:28)rarified: get answered as fast as I would hope.

(03/06 13:37:42)rarified: You can visit it at https://foundry.openuru.org/moulhelp

(03/06 13:37:59)rarified: It has the ability to submit tickets for both MOULa and the Minkata shards.

(03/06 13:38:17)rarified: So far I’m working with two people who have offered their time. We’ll see

(03/06 13:38:40)Calum Traveler: (strike that earlier comment i made about bug report KImails, send things there instead XD)

(03/06 13:38:46)Calum Traveler didn’t know this was being announced today

(03/06 13:38:54)rarified: if I can be a competent teacher. Then I might be able to help others learn to man to station.

(03/06 13:39:10)rarified: Ok. Last item, very brief.

(03/06 13:39:29)rarified: And more for those of you who might have dreams of building art for Uru.

(03/06 13:39:56)rarified: Cyan released to the writers group a set of images for textures used in Uru and Myst

(03/06 13:40:07)rarified: so they could be used in fan contributed content.

(03/06 13:40:25)rarified: The quantity of art items was overwhelming — more than 8000 files.

(03/06 13:40:46)rarified: I’ve put a browser up on the OU site so people can browse these images.

(03/06 13:40:52)Theo is astonished!

(03/06 13:41:03)rarified: I can’t promise it will be up forever, but I’ll keep it up as long as possible.

(03/06 13:41:06)Calum Traveler: they’re a great asset, these textures 😉

(03/06 13:41:08)Thumbs up from MindWalker

(03/06 13:41:26)Korov’ev: Some have quite interesting details 🙂

(03/06 13:41:26)rarified: The browser doesn’t give you access to the original files, but both the GoW and OU have

(03/06 13:41:40)rarified: them available in repositories on their respective sites.

(03/06 13:41:59)rarified: The browser is at https://foundry.openuru.org/assets/Foundry/Textures/Browser/

(03/06 13:42:13)rarified: Expect to take a *long* time looking. I sure did.

(03/06 13:42:23)rarified: That’s it from me. Questions?

(03/06 13:42:29)Korov’ev: Our next question is from philipgr.

(03/06 13:42:30)Korov’ev: [philipgr] Are these textures availabile in a zip file to download?

(03/06 13:42:53)rarified: It’s more that a gigabyte total. That’s why I put up the browser. So you can

(03/06 13:43:03)rarified: pick individual files to obtain.

(03/06 13:43:21)rarified: If you want the whole ball of wax, you *could* clone one of our repositories,

(03/06 13:43:28)rarified: but expect it to take a long time.

(03/06 13:43:38)Calum Traveler: (it’s a lot of files)

(03/06 13:43:38)philipgr: Thanks 🙂

(03/06 13:43:45)Korov’ev: One question from me: the support ticket site isn’t meant for fan age inspection reports, right?

(03/06 13:44:22)rarified: Hmmm, not yet. There are **OLD** ages in the bug tracking database from artists,

(03/06 13:44:50)rarified: but for now, the best place for logging age discoveries is on the OpenUru#hood Discord channel.

(03/06 13:45:07)Korov’ev: Or the forum, I guess?

(03/06 13:45:12)rarified: Any artist is welcome to request a bug category for their ages.

(03/06 13:45:13)Doobes: We’ve had good results with Google Docs. People can write up one of those and share the link too.

(03/06 13:45:49)Korov’ev: Oh yes. There’s one very good template in use 🙂

(03/06 13:45:56)rarified: I gather bug reports range from “tripped on ___” to a full visit report.

(03/06 13:46:33)Korov’ev: Thank you rarified!

(03/06 13:46:38)rarified: And just to make a suggestion, first time visitors are welcome to write a Journal

(03/06 13:46:44)rarified: and send it to Doobes for Chiso!

(03/06 13:46:45)rarified bows

(03/06 13:47:01)AntDroid: even the bahro cheered

(03/06 13:47:06)Jatea claps hands and says thank you

(03/06 13:47:12)Doobes: Yeah, if it’s Chiso, Veelay or the Pub, you can PM me directly on Discord if it’s easier for you. 🙂

(03/06 13:47:13)Calum Traveler: the Bahro are happy with this news

(03/06 13:47:19)Korov’ev: More on the topic of fan ages,

(03/06 13:47:23)Korov’ev: time for the usual Fan Age Touring Club update, from the Deep Island shard.

(03/06 13:47:41)Korov’ev: Recently we visited Iceworld, Tsameti (a new one!), and began the exploration of Elodea.

(03/06 13:47:51)Korov’ev: Thanks to Diafero for implementing the /find command, it really helps 😀

(03/06 13:48:01)Korov’ev: For most of March, we’ll continue with the underground levels of Elodea.

(03/06 13:48:02)TikiBear: blessedrelief

(03/06 13:48:09)Sleeper Jan: oh yep

(03/06 13:48:10)Korov’ev: The expeditions are on Sunday at 11:00 KIT, starting in the shard Hood (you can get there quickly with “/hood”).

(03/06 13:48:17)Korov’ev: There’s also a (mute) stream: https://www.twitch.tv/korovvannoort

(03/06 13:48:22)giovanni4: buona sera a tutti

(03/06 13:48:25)Korov’ev: Radio Free D’ni will start right after with the preshow, at 12:30 KIT.

(03/06 13:48:49)Korov’ev: And now, the monthly update from r’Tayrtahn, aka Shokhootahn Rehn!

(03/06 13:48:58)Sleeper Jan: shorah giovanni

(03/06 13:49:06)Eternal Seeker: (vlsp

(03/06 13:49:12)Korov’ev: lots of lag today…

(03/06 13:49:14)shokhootahn Rehn: !shorah

(03/06 13:49:29)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, I have two separate announcements. One is for the D’ni Language Class and the other one is for r’Tayrtahn’s Story Night.

(03/06 13:49:30)IwonK waves hello

(03/06 13:49:31)darkwingduck: shorah

(03/06 13:49:41)shokhootahn Rehn: First, the language classes…

(03/06 13:49:59)shokhootahn Rehn: I am still putting things away and finding forever homes for everything after my recent move. I am, however, accepting daytime students on a limited basis. If someone needs a daytime slot, contact me and we will work something out. Night time classes, however, are unaffected.

(03/06 13:51:07)shokhootahn Rehn: There are evening classes avaible on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday nights, starting at either 20:00 KI time, 21:00 KI time, or 22:00 KI time depending on the student’s schedule, and on Friday nights at20:00 KI time. Contact me by PM to set up a day and a time.

(03/06 13:51:20)shokhootahn Rehn: As always, current students can find last-minute updates to class times on the left-hand imager.

(03/06 13:51:37)shokhootahn Rehn: Now for some exciting news…

(03/06 13:51:51)shokhootahn Rehn: Last time, I announced that there were several students that had started taking the classes.

(03/06 13:52:26)shokhootahn Rehn: Two have comoleted their 101 classes and one is working on their 101 final.

(03/06 13:52:53)shokhootahn Rehn: Please give a warm round of applause to shineyjo and Sunvalor!

(03/06 13:53:11)Adam {Hoikas} trolls his hands

(03/06 13:53:20)shokhootahn Rehn: =… and be sure to congratulate them the next time you see them i the cavern. 😀

(03/06 13:53:44)shokhootahn Rehn: Also, there are now two more instructors in the Guild of Instructors certified to teach 101 classes.

(03/06 13:53:53)shokhootahn Rehn: Please give a warm round of applause for shokhootahn aqua and shokhootahn Nack

(03/06 13:54:02)Korov’ev: oooh

(03/06 13:54:18)shokhootahn Rehn: A third instructor is currently going through the certification process.

(03/06 13:54:18)shokhootahn Rehn:

(03/06 13:54:30)John5: nice 🙂

(03/06 13:54:57)Thumbs up from Calum Traveler

(03/06 13:55:02)shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.

(03/06 13:55:15)shokhootahn Rehn: The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session.

(03/06 13:55:33)shokhootahn Rehn: oops

(03/06 13:55:35)shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(03/06 13:55:51)Korov’ev: none in queue

(03/06 13:56:18)shokhootahn Rehn: I guess not. Moving on…

(03/06 13:56:26)shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(03/06 13:56:38)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night – Europe is one story behind original Story Night.

(03/06 13:56:51)shokhootahn Rehn: We have started the story from the game of Riven. Today we are on part two of threestories.

(03/06 13:57:07)shokhootahn Rehn: I have given up on the idea of live-streaming Story Night, at least for now.

(03/06 13:57:35)shokhootahn Rehn: Story Night is held in the public neighborhood of Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday.

(03/06 13:57:49)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.

(03/06 13:58:04)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 14:00 KI or 30 minutes after the AGM, whichever is later.

(03/06 13:58:31)shokhootahn Rehn: I also post changes on the left-hand imager in the hood.

(03/06 13:58:42)shokhootahn Rehn: Should I need to cancel one of the stories at the last minute, I will try to aprise one or two of my regular audience members of the situation so they can spread the news. 🙂

(03/06 13:59:06)shokhootahn Rehn: The stories are told using voice so you will need to have your speakers or headsets on.

(03/06 13:59:20)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 so it must be added to the body of the text.

(03/06 13:59:43)shokhootahn Rehn: YOU *MUST* INCLUDE YOUR KI NUMBER IN THE BODY OF THE MAIL TO BE ADDED! (caps for emphasis, not for shouting)

(03/06 14:00:05)shokhootahn Rehn: Some have sent messages to be added but have not included their KI number so they were unable to be added.

(03/06 14:00:15)shokhootahn Rehn: We hope to see you there!

(03/06 14:00:29)shokhootahn Rehn: Any questions?

(03/06 14:00:48)Korov’ev: Thank you, Tayrtahn!

(03/06 14:00:52)shokhootahn Rehn hears crickets

(03/06 13:15:23) Doobes is not telling 😛
(03/06 13:15:38) Claidi Song: 🙂
(03/06 13:15:46) Doobes: The length of text shouldn't be a problem, but please keep any potential pictures to a small handful please. 🙂
(03/06 13:16:02) Doobes: A cover texture is recommended, but not required if you don't mind a generic one being used.
(03/06 13:16:19) Doobes: Best way to get in touch with me about adding your work is to contact me on Discord. We can then work out the details.
(03/06 13:16:42) Doobes: Back to the updates, Veelay was mostly performance and functional fixes, so I'm hoping more people can get through the Age without it glitching up a metaphorical storm now.
(03/06 13:17:07) Doobes: From what I hear, at least one Mac user says it's working a lot better after the update, but let me know if there are still any lingering issues!
(03/06 13:17:22) *Jodok*: i confirm
(03/06 13:17:31) Calum Traveler: briefly intruding but im collecting some bug reports on the last update, if u got any send me a ki mail.
(03/06 13:17:32) Doobes: 😀
(03/06 13:17:40) Doobes: Now then…on to the new(ish) stuff!
(03/06 13:17:51) Doobes: The next big update is already working its way through…and soon, there will be three more Ages appearing in Chiso!
(03/06 13:18:00) Boywhith cheers
(03/06 13:18:01) etelka cheers
(03/06 13:18:02) IwonK: :O

(03/06 13:18:15) EthanEver faints
(03/06 13:18:15) Theo cheers
(03/06 13:18:18) Doobes: That other guy…what was his name again?…may have told you about it at the last meeting. XD
(03/06 13:18:20) darkwingduck: interesting….
(03/06 13:18:28) Prad 's eyes get bigger and bigger
(03/06 13:18:32) Claidi Song starts to laugh
(03/06 13:18:32) Calum Traveler: i believe he did yes 😛
(03/06 13:18:35) AntDroid cheers
(03/06 13:18:40) Doobes: Tre'bivdil, by Lontahv, has already gone through the testing phase on Minkata, so it's pretty much ready to go.
(03/06 13:18:57) Doobes: Currently, we're having a look at Andy Legate's Serene to make sure everything is working properly.
(03/06 13:19:18) Doobes: Once that's done, it will be on to Rustee's Vothol Gallery cavern location (now that I solved a little problem with the reflective floor).
(03/06 13:19:38) Doobes: I'm hoping we can get this ready to go by sometime late next month. We're trying to space these updates out a bit for Chogon and Cyan's benefit as well as the programmers improving the client…hence the slow batching of Ages.
(03/06 13:20:02) Doobes: I want to thank everyone who has helped to test things on Minkata before they go to the main show, so to speak.
(03/06 13:20:15) Calum Traveler tips their fancy green hat
(03/06 13:20:18) Doobes: And of course rarified for putting up with it all. 😀
(03/06 13:20:32) rarified grins.
(03/06 13:20:35) Doobes: Every note on each issue helps, although for the Ages that are not mine, I'm trying to keep things to purely technical or very obvious fixes while maintaining the artistic vision of each.
(03/06 13:20:54) Doobes: Not an easy task, but worth it!
(03/06 13:20:55) Korov'ev: There are some good inspectors there 🙂
(03/06 13:21:10) Doobes: Absolutely!
(03/06 13:21:15) Doobes: Once this update is out, I'll be heading back to working on my own stuff, but if another Age comes up for consideration, I will be more than happy to lend a hand getting it ready, particularly if the original artist is involved.
(03/06 13:21:43) Doobes: I'd very much like to see one of those big puzzle Ages all polished up and making a big debut on MOULa. I think you all would too! 😉
(03/06 13:21:53) philipgr: Yes
(03/06 13:21:56) Anatheia claps her hands
(03/06 13:22:07) Doobes: And of course, none of this work would even be in or coming to MOULa without Korman, which recently released its latest version, 0.11(a)!
(03/06 13:22:22) Doobes: https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7239
(03/06 13:22:24) *Jodok* claps his hands
(03/06 13:22:32) Calum Traveler can attest to the new lighting changes being a big help
(03/06 13:22:55) Doobes: Lots of talented H'uru programmers put in some more fixes and goodies into this one…plus some stuff I was able to throw in under supervision. XD
(03/06 13:23:17) Doobes: We're getting very close to doing all the neat things the original 3DS Max plugin was able to do.
(03/06 13:23:35) Doobes: So if you want to dive into the exciting world of Age building, you can pick it and Blender 2.79b up for free at any time.
(03/06 13:23:47) Doobes: https://guildofwriters.org/wiki/Korman:Installation
(03/06 13:24:17) Doobes: More is planned for 0.12, including either custom GUI mods (ie the various notes you can click on or, more elaborately, working machinery such as the Great Zero scopes or Er'cana ovens) or particle systems!
(03/06 13:24:22) Doobes: (Hopefully)
(03/06 13:24:37) Calum Traveler is hoping for particles…
(03/06 13:24:41) Doobes: Note that can change as the work and time dictate. 😉
(03/06 13:24:44) Calum Traveler will also take the GUI stuff tho
(03/06 13:24:54) Doobes: You can keep up on the latest from the GoW at their Guild News section of their forum:
(03/06 13:25:07) Doobes: https://forum.guildofwriters.org/viewforum.php?f=2
(03/06 13:25:48) Doobes: Someone PMed me about an actual release date for the new content. That has not been decided as it mostly happens when Chogon can get some time.
(03/06 13:26:09) Doobes: But hopefully, late next month…or around that time
(03/06 13:26:20) Doobes: Anyway, that's all for now. Any questions?
(03/06 13:26:30) Calum Traveler: basically, as everyones schedules and time allows, right?
(03/06 13:26:30) *Jodok* wants to ask a question…
(03/06 13:26:37) Doobes: Exactly, Cal.
(03/06 13:26:38) Korov'ev: go ahead
(03/06 13:26:40) *Jodok*: yes a question about korma
(03/06 13:26:43) Doobes: Go ahead, Jodok.
(03/06 13:26:47) *Jodok*: is it working on mac?
(03/06 13:27:08) Doobes: It being…Korman? Blender?
(03/06 13:27:16) Doobes: If it's the former, no, not yet.
(03/06 13:27:22) Doobes: At least not natively.
(03/06 13:27:42) Adam {Hoikas}: Blender on macOS is a little touchy. You have to run it in WINE for Korman to work.
(03/06 13:27:45) *Jodok*: ok thank you
(03/06 13:27:49) Doobes: Kor here is actually more the expert on getting Macs to do more things. 😀
(03/06 13:27:55) MindWalker: What exactly are the 'particle systems'?
(03/06 13:28:01) *Jodok*: yes i confirm blender is not so good working on mac
(03/06 13:28:01) Calum Traveler: think fireflies
(03/06 13:28:20) Korov'ev: or snow, right?
(03/06 13:28:25) Doobes: That would be things such as the sparks that come out of the KI machine in Descent or the "stuff" that comes off the Pod portals. Stuff like that.
(03/06 13:28:28) rarified: Butterflies in your Relto.
(03/06 13:28:29) *Jodok*: thank you doobes for your answer
(03/06 13:28:30) Doobes: Or weather effects, yes.
(03/06 13:28:30) Adam {Hoikas}: or smoke
(03/06 13:28:35) Doobes: Gira/Kemo bugs.
(03/06 13:28:43) MindWalker thanks you very much!
(03/06 13:28:44) Doobes: Or fireflies rather.
(03/06 13:28:47) Doobes nods
(03/06 13:28:50) Calum Traveler: glowbugs
(03/06 13:28:54) Doobes: Any other questions?
(03/06 13:29:08) Korov'ev claps his hands
(03/06 13:29:08) Korov'ev: Thank you Doobes!

(03/06 13:30:32) darkwingduck claps his hands
(03/06 13:30:34) Anatheia waves hello
(03/06 13:30:36) darkwingduck waves hello
(03/06 13:30:37) Calum Traveler: shorah
(03/06 13:30:38) rarified: A set of small announcements.
(03/06 13:30:39) ScottMiller waves hello
(03/06 13:30:41) *Jodok* waves hello
(03/06 13:30:41) John5: shorah
(03/06 13:30:59) rarified: As Doobes mentioned, we're going through some new ages on the Minkata shards.
(03/06 13:31:13) rarified: There are actually two Minkata shards, Prime and Alpha.
(03/06 13:31:33) rarified: Prime is where things are assembled together before they are delivered to Cyan to install on MOULa.
(03/06 13:31:47) rarified: But Alpha is where new ages first get tested out.
(03/06 13:32:07) rarified: The ages Doobes has talked about are making their way through Alpha right now,
(03/06 13:32:27) rarified: but soon they'll be merged together on Prime (Just "Minkata" for the old timers).
(03/06 13:32:48) rarified: We still could use people visiting and examining this new content for things that
(03/06 13:32:51) Doobes: Many layers so they can be guaranteed fresh by the time they get here to MOULa.)
(03/06 13:32:53) rarified: "just don't look right".
(03/06 13:33:15) Calum Traveler: it takes a sharp eye to notice something like a missing bottom on a mug or somethin'…
(03/06 13:33:18) rarified: So, if you have time, please sign up and visit Minkata. It helps everyone contributing to MOULa.
(03/06 13:33:42) Doobes: To interject, I'd like to reiterate that, since these aren't my Ages this time, I can't get too wild with changes.
(03/06 13:33:54) rarified: Second, Minkata (Prime) is going to have a few user interface improvements added before the next
(03/06 13:34:03) rarified: delivery to MOUL (or so I hear).
(03/06 13:34:23) rarified: So if you're the adventurous type…
(03/06 13:34:30) rarified: Ok, next topic…
(03/06 13:34:53) rarified: As you know, Cyan froze the MOULa forums last year and essentially moved all discussions
(03/06 13:34:59) rarified: about MOULa to Discord.
(03/06 13:35:19) rarified: Including asking for help or support for those having trouble with MOULa.
(03/06 13:35:42) rarified: In the background, I've been working on a support site that more resembles a
(03/06 13:36:05) rarified: place to drop an issue description, or request help (like I've forgotten my password).
(03/06 13:36:29) rarified: It's still in early stages. I can't man it all by myself, so I'm putting out calls for people
(03/06 13:36:49) rarified: who think they might have time and some ability to look at a problem and send it to the right
(03/06 13:36:54) rarified: people.
(03/06 13:37:18) rarified: The help site is publically available now, although things requested may not
(03/06 13:37:28) rarified: get answered as fast as I would hope.
(03/06 13:37:42) rarified: You can visit it at https://foundry.openuru.org/moulhelp
(03/06 13:37:59) rarified: It has the ability to submit tickets for both MOULa and the Minkata shards.
(03/06 13:38:17) rarified: So far I'm working with two people who have offered their time. We'll see
(03/06 13:38:40) Calum Traveler: (strike that earlier comment i made about bug report KImails, send things there instead XD)
(03/06 13:38:46) Calum Traveler didn't know this was being announced today
(03/06 13:38:54) rarified: if I can be a competent teacher. Then I might be able to help others learn to man to station.
(03/06 13:39:10) rarified: Ok. Last item, very brief.
(03/06 13:39:29) rarified: And more for those of you who might have dreams of building art for Uru.
(03/06 13:39:56) rarified: Cyan released to the writers group a set of images for textures used in Uru and Myst
(03/06 13:40:07) rarified: so they could be used in fan contributed content.
(03/06 13:40:25) rarified: The quantity of art items was overwhelming — more than 8000 files.
(03/06 13:40:46) rarified: I've put a browser up on the OU site so people can browse these images.
(03/06 13:40:52) Theo is astonished!
(03/06 13:41:03) Claidi Song cheers
(03/06 13:41:03) rarified: I can't promise it will be up forever, but I'll keep it up as long as possible.
(03/06 13:41:06) Calum Traveler: they're a great asset, these textures 😉
(03/06 13:41:08) Thumbs up from MindWalker
(03/06 13:41:26) Korov'ev: Some have quite interesting details 🙂
(03/06 13:41:26) rarified: The browser doesn't give you access to the original files, but both the GoW and OU have
(03/06 13:41:40) rarified: them available in repositories on their respective sites.
(03/06 13:41:59) rarified: The browser is at https://foundry.openuru.org/assets/Foundry/Textures/Browser/
(03/06 13:42:13) rarified: Expect to take a *long* time looking. I sure did.
(03/06 13:42:23) rarified: That's it from me. Questions?
(03/06 13:42:29) Korov'ev: Our next question is from philipgr.
(03/06 13:42:30) Korov'ev: [philipgr] Are these textures availabile in a zip file to download?
(03/06 13:42:53) rarified: It's more that a gigabyte total. That's why I put up the browser. So you can
(03/06 13:43:03) rarified: pick individual files to obtain.
(03/06 13:43:21) rarified: If you want the whole ball of wax, you *could* clone one of our repositories,
(03/06 13:43:28) rarified: but expect it to take a long time.
(03/06 13:43:38) Calum Traveler: (it's a lot of files)
(03/06 13:43:38) philipgr: Thanks 🙂
(03/06 13:43:45) Korov'ev: One question from me: the support ticket site isn't meant for fan age inspection reports, right?
(03/06 13:44:22) rarified: Hmmm, not yet. There are **OLD** ages in the bug tracking database from artists,
(03/06 13:44:50) rarified: but for now, the best place for logging age discoveries is on the OpenUru#hood Discord channel.
(03/06 13:45:07) Korov'ev: Or the forum, I guess?
(03/06 13:45:12) rarified: Any artist is welcome to request a bug category for their ages.
(03/06 13:45:13) Doobes: We've had good results with Google Docs. People can write up one of those and share the link too.
(03/06 13:45:49) Korov'ev: Oh yes. There's one very good template in use 🙂
(03/06 13:45:56) rarified: I gather bug reports range from "tripped on ___" to a full visit report.
(03/06 13:46:33) Korov'ev claps his hands
(03/06 13:46:33) Korov'ev: Thank you rarified!
