I have corrected the issue with our transfer to Steam. Confirmed this is due to the changes in Steams security policies. Steamguard (2FA) tokens were all reset without our knowledge. Going forward, Steam patches can no longer be automated. As per Steams new process/policy. we will have to...
On October 10th, Steam advised all game developers that we would need to set up 2FA to continue to access the site and update our games. We made the required changes before the cutoff, but now Steam has backed off the mandatory implementation of the new authentication. Bottom line is...

[QUOTE="ConjurerDragon, post: 1360460, member: 2872"]Perhaps a stupid question, but why would the "disable weather at low performance" disable the weather only when running in the lowest graphics settings? [/QUOTE] Not saying it would only disable on the lowest setting, in this case the game...
Great job building this. It was fun to go through. I sent you some mail! [LIST] [*]Good special mention to people who helped you. Wow, those are the experts! Well done! [*]Lobby, well decorated! Scary, and I tried to register for a room through the manager. The staff members were very energetic...
Downdetector confirms the outage window this morning... [URL]https://downdetector... [IMG]https://cdn.discorda... It appears the issue has been resolved on Steam's side.
Assuming you have the game set to the lowest graphics setting, weather should disable. Though, systems without a dedicated (discrete) Graphics Card are not supported at all. These systems do not have dedicated RAM for the GPU and in addition to poor performance, also exhibit unexpected...
[USER=206664]@Gwendolyn Obscuro[/USER] , I re-read your comments. [QUOTE="Gwendolyn Obscuro, post: 1360410, member: 206664"]The first time I asked him to say the list again and every time I ask to slow down he just tells me to say harvest to continue.[/QUOTE] Here's what the automaton says...
[QUOTE="Belladonna Rose, post: 1360417, member: 170253"]Not right now but soonish. It would be nice to take the 'dug up' maps and be able to frame them up . Or at least have them some how to be used as deco. Framed would be cool since we can use the same things we need for the other framed...
[QUOTE="Belladonna Rose, post: 1360418, member: 170253"]Well since this last patch i went back to Sellck and got that quest completed. Yay. I then preceeded to do the maps that i had again. Only problem i have on the bloodstained maps is that i got the message the map was removed from...
Yep its supposed to be movable anytime! Ill check for the classification, i didn't want it to be in there at all since its the same recipe for everything and it ended up being one for each of them. Need to check what i can do with this!
[QUOTE="Coswald_Dirthmire... post: 1360378, member: 369790"] Details: I was talking to the automaton that grants the "Say 'Harvest'[...]" portion of the tutorial, and while chatting with folks on stream I was non-responsive for long enough for the dialogue window to auto-close. Once I brought...
[QUOTE="Rinaldi, post: 1360386, member: 161950"]Couple of issues with Selleck's conversation: [LIST=1] [*][URL='https://www.shro... me, but I won't answer[/URL] [*][URL='https://www.shro... you! (typo)[/URL] [/LIST] The treasure map "window" has some odd prioirty issues. If i click the...
[QUOTE="Gwendolyn Obscuro, post: 1360372, member: 206664"] I like that in addition to being told what to do in the conversation window the chat window also had some commentary about what was going on. However when I got to the harvesting area and was told that I needed to mine the ore to...
[QUOTE="Belladonna Rose, post: 1360368, member: 170253"] You might think to put Castle Atos automaton on that list cause alot of folks end up there pretty quickly[/QUOTE] The Helpful Automaton in Castle Atos actually does send you to the tutorial. I accidentally left him off the list in the...
Helpful Automatons now have an inventory-themed tutorial they can provide to any avatar. Players can run through this tutorial on the QA server for now, with the intention that it is added to the live server with the next release. The tutorial (that I affectionately call "Inventory 101" behind...
[QUOTE="Belladonna Rose, post: 1360338, member: 170253"]Found the outhouse and looked around. Dug all around the dang thing and cannot get it to spawn. I have done this in both party mode and open. So not sure what the deal is with it.[/QUOTE] I found a bug with the outhouse spot. If you dig...
[QUOTE="Gwendolyn Obscuro, post: 1360341, member: 206664"]It is in, I completed the quest successfully. But for some reason it is not working for Bella. She is able to find the other chests though.[/QUOTE] Ya we just went to test it Sannyo might have found some fix! Should be in next patch
[QUOTE="Belladonna Rose, post: 1360338, member: 170253"]Ok. Here we go. The only thing i didnt do was talk to the Junior Treasure Hunters. But Selleck talked to me and gave me his quest to find a trinket. Found the outhouse and looked around. Dug all around the dang thing and cannot get it to...
[QUOTE="Gwendolyn Obscuro, post: 1360330, member: 206664"]Thanks for creating these I think the book holders especially will get a lot of use! I have tested several different paintings so far. All of the coto store type paintings I have tried so far have sat correctly on the easels (though...
[USER=118975]@Paladin Michael[/USER] , I found a logic error with one of the turn-ins. I know you already turned in the Inoperable Kobold Cloud Cannon and now want to turn in the Inoperable Kobold Tesla Rifle, but do you currently have both quest items in your inventory? Here's what I think is...

Hail Avatars! We added several items in the fishing expedition chest (Please don't take it all and leave some for others!) for you to test including some painting easel and book stand where you can drag and drop a painting or a book onto it and it will snap in the good position. And ... Here...
The issues we've been experiencing as a result of a DoS attack last week have been resolved (was not an open relay, nor was it a result of the recent data center migration) The bad actor did not impact our infrastructure, but the excess traffic that was passed on to Gmail caused Google to take...
[QUOTE="Gwendolyn Obscuro, post: 1360212, member: 206664"]Add to the above issues mobs regenning and walking away because they no longer remember we were fighting and an ice wall blocking me walking out of the crevice at the loc below (i walked back in and hugged the other wall and was able to...
As of today we are still awaiting Google to unblock our outbound emails to the gmail.com domain. I have followed up with them today, and will continue to follow up with them throughout the week until it is corrected.
The FAQ lists the ports the game is using. The IP address you noted is the game server address. Usually,m when the game is updated the OS Firewall software like Norton, msft etc. will prompt you to approve access and it wont complain about the ports. You may need to add an exemption into...
We are still looking at this! If it seem to affect all terrain in harvest thought that's probably because the first terrain you had (in vertas) was sadly the wrong one. Trying another town might result in same problem. That being said, sadly we can't do much for the decorations, you will have to...
I did a lot of investigation and testing in Jotungrund yesterday. The main issue is that the navmesh isn't generating properly within the crevasse and all my attempts to fix it aren't working for some reason. I've passed this along to DevilCult to investigate.

Not too slow a boil! :) I have been spending a lot of time this month auditing and charting things out. (maps were a high priority this month) will bump up the lot deed audit and corrective actions for this upcoming release R119. Maybe I can get the "Half Row" lot (not for house placement,...
We have identified the root cause of the issue and are working with the affected email providers to resolve it. In short: The email providers (like Gmail) put a block on us sending emails through them because a bad actor decided to try to do a Denial Of Service attack on our mail system. The...
We have gotten reports in the last 24 hours that people creating new accounts using Microsoft or Google based email addresses are unable to complete the registration process. The issue is that the confirmation email that provides a link to create the account password is not being received by...
