Hi Everyone,
This update introduces several major features. The new highway system is in, with the ability to find routes and protect major thoroughfares, and the new wall types in the textures introduced earlier this year. Most importantly, this update includes the new rendering client, with improved lighting and shading and a whole lot of updates under the hood. Most mods will not work with it until updated, so make sure to check for updates!


New fences and parapets are now available

• The following fence types can now be built in Slate, Sandstone, Marble, Pottery brick, Rounded stone, and rendered.

• Paved tiles that are two or three tiles wide can be protected by placing catseyes or waystones on adjacent tile corners.
• A catseye may only connect to 2 catseyes or waystones and must be connected to one to allow planting.
• Waystones will create junctions for multiple highway routes to connect and will require being connected to at least one catseye to allow planting off deed. Note: On deed a waystone may be planted without any connections.

• Possible protected tiles and links can be viewed before planting a catseye or waystone by activating the item and right clicking an eligible tile corner (one with a planted catseye or waystone on an adjacent tile).
• Once planted, the protected tiles and links can be viewed by right clicking on the object and selecting it in the menu.
• Planting catseyes off deed becomes faster as your paving skill increases.
• It is advised to use this to ensure the correct tiles will be protected when joining highway junctions.

• Deeds that have a waystone on deed may be found via the “find route” option on a waystone that is connected to the same highway.
• If opted in, they may be found in the drop down menu, if they have not opted in they may still be found by inputting the exact deed name

  • The imbue will start with 100 power, no matter what your actual skill is as long as the action succeeds.
  • Protect against items “cracking” 5 times, lose 20 power from the imbue every time it “forms cracks”
  • Protect against a single shatter. As long as the power of the imbue even exist listed on the item, it will be protected.
  • You can NOT smear another potion to “refill” the lost power, effect must be gone.

• Corpses of branded animals can only be looted by those people who had ride/lead permissions on that animal prior to it’s death and it’s only ‘protected’ in that manner until server restart.
  
  • You do not have to be a villager of the animal brand – you just need to have had ride/lead permission prior to the animal dying.
  • People without permission cannot take, open, butcher, bury or move the corpse.
  • This protection is removed with a server restart – at that time the corpse is available to anyone.

Hi Everyone!

It's been a quiet summer, but we're back with more news and happenings for Wurm, with all the latest details from the recent updates to Wurm Online and what's in store for Wurm Unlimited!


With the last update we introduced the new bridge and wall textures, mentioning that additional wall textures were in the works. I'm pleased to say we now have those done, and will be releasing them in the next update.

The update will include textures for Tall wall, Portcullis fence, Parapet, High iron fence, High iron fence gate, Chain link fence in the sandstone, slate, rounded stone, marble, rendered, and pottery textures.

Slate



Rendered



Rounded Stone



Pottery



Sandstone



Marble



Sure, this means rebuilding your house and deed yet again, but who's complaning?


On Freedom servers Epic missions structures will become eligible to build at any time, and even on deed. Meaning you'll be able to decorate with an obelisk, spirit gate, temple, shrine, or pylon any time you want anywhere. These structures will take a lot of skill and materials to build, but if built off deed will have a chance of being a mission point to earn sleep bonus!


A more long term project is the ability to load and transport animals in crates! There is currently plans for the ability to load most neutral animals and hell horses, but we're looking at possible expansions prior to this going live.




Not enough space in your warehouse? Can't let go of those rock shards just incase? Don't worry, we have just the thing! The new crate racks will store 30 large crates, or 51 small, leaving a lot more space for activities!


We've been working on improved creature movement with live testing on a Wurm Online server. With the overhaul of the movement system we're looking at better creature flow and behaviour, and hopefully less grouping of creatures in pens.

We went into detail with a devblog on the subject, for more info on how it currently works and how we aim to have it work, check out https://www.wurmonline.com/2017/06/14/wurm-devblog-crazy-creatures/


The latest update to the Wurm Online servers was the introduction of a new highway system, allowing players to designate highways and protect them against destruction.

In Wurm Online, highways are protected by rules against destruction to ensure that travel is always possible across the server. This change creates a mechanical protection, but also includes a handy new feature.



The highway system will be connected via catseyes, with waystones forming the junctions. At junctions players will be able to find the route to any deed connected to the highway! This will enable much easier travel across servers, and allow players to navigate much easier.


Work continues on the development client with a new rendering engine, with better performance, lighting and shading, along with a ton of new graphics options.



We are in the process of releasing this as the main client on our Wurm Online servers shortly, and will begin beta testing with Wurm Unlimited a little after that.

It's an amazing improvement over the existing way the game renders, and will really bring the world to life, if you want to check it out before it hits Steam make sure to jump on the Wurm Online forums to try it out in Wurm Online.

That's not all coming soon to the game there's a ton coming and we'll hopefully have a beta out in the next few weeks, once we've finalised the highway introduction in Wurm Online.

Until then though, keep on Wurming!

That's not all coming soon to the game there's a ton coming and we'll hopefully have a beta out in the next few weeks, once we've finalised the highway introduction in Wurm Online.

Until then though, keep on Wurming!

Hi Everyone!
1.4.0.1 goes live today with the underground paving, cladding, and bridges! the highlights are below, but the full patch notes can be found at: http://www.wurmunlimited.com/2017/07/04/version-1-4-0-1/

Note:
There may be some work in progress features within this version, if you do enable them do not expect them to work completely, and we advise you keep them disabled until they are completed and released by us.

Happy Wurming!
The Wurm team.

• Crafted with sheet of paper and string + 2 leather strips, the almanac will hold reports you create about the nature of the tree, bush or trellis and estimate the harvest times.
• Reports are created by studying a harvestable tree, bush or trellis during its harvest season.
• You then can write down the record using a reed pen with ink or dye on paper.
• Forestry skill will determine how much information is collected.
• Resulting quality of the report will determine how far in the future you can see harvest times.
• These reports may then be stored inside the almanac.
• The almanac can then be used to check on harvest times and read up on information about the reports they have stored inside.

Hi Everyoine!

It's been a bit since we last caught you up with all that's going on in Wurm Unlimited, but I'm here with the latest news for you all to enjoy!

This months devblog focuses on a few things new to Wurm Online and a few things in the works, so lets get started!
With the new housing types coming out, we'd be remiss to not strike while the iron is hot and expand on this! We'll be introducing the new material types for bridges in a coming update!





Teased a few weeks ago, a new highway system will be coming to Wurm. This system will allow players to designate highways and protect them from vandalism! They will also be used to denote routes to nearby villages, as well as give information about how far it is to each village connected.



Deeds will be linked by catseyes, which form the backbone of the system, waypoints will denote junctions, allowing morew routes to be connected.

There will also be a few new GM and admin tools for tracking roads and systems too! This opens up potential new features that utilise the highway system, you'll have to wait and see what comes of it!


An almanac is an old guide used for all sorts of record keeping, and in wurm, it can be used to track harvest times for fruits and bushes! PLayers will be able to study a harvestable tree, bush or trellis while it is in season, and will be able to generate a report based off this. This can then be used to track upcoming harvest times with quality of the report determining how accurate it is.



With the reports inside the almanac, players will be able to check what's in season by typing /almanac as a command, and will get all the info on what's ripe!
Ever wonder where blueberries, raspberries, and lingonberries come from? well fear no more! We've added these three new bush types to come in with the next update, bringing a lot more shrubbery to a neighbourhood near you. While blueberries and raspberries can be planted from sprouts found foraging, lingonberry will only grow on tundra, and sprouts cannot be found, you'll need to set up a dedicated tundra spot for them to grow on.



Old reinforcements are boring, and we've decided to change that up! With the next update, you'll be able to decorate and pave reinforced cave walls and floors, with all the new wall types and pavement types as well!


Slate




Floors can be reinforced, then prepared with mortar and paved, where walls are reinforced, and then constructed upon similar to house walls.



This update will also include tile borders and corners in caves, meaning you can see the slopes!  These changes  add even more design options to underground living, and there's even more to come! What is coming? You'll just have to wait and see...

Until then though, keep on Wurming!

An almanac is an old guide used for all sorts of record keeping, and in wurm, it can be used to track harvest times for fruits and bushes! PLayers will be able to study a harvestable tree, bush or trellis while it is in season, and will be able to generate a report based off this. This can then be used to track upcoming harvest times with quality of the report determining how accurate it is.



With the reports inside the almanac, players will be able to check what's in season by typing /almanac as a command, and will get all the info on what's ripe!
Ever wonder where blueberries, raspberries, and lingonberries come from? well fear no more! We've added these three new bush types to come in with the next update, bringing a lot more shrubbery to a neighbourhood near you. While blueberries and raspberries can be planted from sprouts found foraging, lingonberry will only grow on tundra, and sprouts cannot be found, you'll need to set up a dedicated tundra spot for them to grow on.



Old reinforcements are boring, and we've decided to change that up! With the next update, you'll be able to decorate and pave reinforced cave walls and floors, with all the new wall types and pavement types as well!


Slate




Floors can be reinforced, then prepared with mortar and paved, where walls are reinforced, and then constructed upon similar to house walls.



This update will also include tile borders and corners in caves, meaning you can see the slopes!  These changes  add even more design options to underground living, and there's even more to come! What is coming? You'll just have to wait and see...

Until then though, keep on Wurming!
