WSA: Model updates

Wurm Service Announcement

Friday saw a major update for the graphics pack, with the conversion to a new model system. Some of these models are displaying incorrectly, and we are working on collecting a complete list of which models are incorrect. If you could list any strange models you see on this thread, we will have them fixed and updated as soon as possible!

We have also heard a few reports of decreased performance, travel lag, and issues with memory leaks. In order to track what may be causing this, please check out our thread here and provide as much information as you can.

Bit of issues to sort out still

  • Issues with mount movement still remain – they surface mainly on the larger servers like Xanadu and for players with higher latency when embarking on vehicles. We discussed in the team about reverting to the client and server code from a week ago but eventually it was decided to keep the current code live during the weekend. We are close to sorting the remaining issues out and it should be done by the start of next week. Meanwhile, we apologize for the situation and thank you for your continued patience!

Movement progressing and other stuff

  • A few movement issues may remain but most have been tackled and no serious ones should be live. Thank you for your patience with this – the game should be a lot more responsive and accurate when it comes to player positioning in the future.
  • Fix for auto-lighting fireplaces.
  • Fix so server is shown per message again in ca help.
  • Weaving magical walls now costs a lot more.
  • Fix for village destroy permission to work on structures.
