1May2016 ~ 14:15 GMT

- Epic spell DC's, fixed.
- Language saving, fixed for NEW PCs - old* PCs ask DM to re-set languages
- Recompiled Commune with Nature.
- Maintenance work.
- Appraise Creature feedback improved, work in progress.
- Maintenance on casterlevel and DC calculations.
- Disabled Bigby spawns for NPCs.
- Feat: Hide in the Shadows now has a cooldown, 14 seconds.
- Death system tweaks, for reliability.
- PC Tools save button should now save character and location.
- New Dragonspear Castle interior, mostly CR20+**

* "Old" is any PC with full language saved prior to this patch - tested/confirmed on one of my PCs.

Part 2:
- Dimension Door, Shadow Jump: range extended to medium.
- Languages: Chatting no longer defaults to first language.
- Language maintenance, final stages.
- DC calculation maintenance, on-going refinements.
- Epic spell DC tweaks, on going.
- DMs now able to permanently rename PCs.
- Rolled back mmorpg-spawner script to last week's version - should be less rats and more creatures.

Note on languages: My own testing I got "t^a^l^k l^i^k^e t^h^i^s". Saying something in each language, log-out/log-in cleared it up.

Update 11May2016 ~22:40 GMT
Rasael wrote:- Bug fix for NWscript language issue: affected DM grant languages and the Tongues spell.
- Epic casterlevel progression fix.
Tfunke wrote:* All (~700 so far) hostile spawns have been balanced across the server (will likely have missed a few - keep an eye out for a post on this)
* Full descriptions added to 95% of the spawns - including their languages spoken (referenced via monster manual 3.5 were possible)
* Orc chief now updates party journal on kill (thanks Rasael for script)
* Lootable corpse enabled for all spawns that are not incorporeal or oozes
* All spell casters have random spell variable added (note: spellcasters may sometimes cast spells inappropriately.)
* All ability users (knockdown, disarm etc) have variables added for percentage chance of them using it at all.
* All subraces are correct (were dozens that were incorrect - to my surprise)
* All changed hostile spawns have a plum coloured name (for ease of reading combat log)
* All changed hostile 'bosses' have a gold coloured name (because its more funky this way)
* More disarmable foes
* More 'compassionate' spellcasters. You may see some enemies buffing each other more often.
* A surprise or two! :o
----------------------------------------------
Changed creature ResRefs - may give a clue what changed.

- More deity banners deployed on surface; mostly "nature" and "evil" types not yet deployed. - WIG! :?
- Moved NPC in Nashkel away from bridge EO
- Guildhall repair

Note: Two of my PCs are still experiencing "t^a^l^k l^i^k^e t^h^i^s". Saying something in each language, log-out/log-in cleared it up.

Updated our NWNX4 client this morning to a modified version with improvements made by Skywing to try to help with the module crashes. Let me know if anyone experiences any abnormal behavior following the change.

Also tweaked some other settings on the host. Players should notice a marked performance increase as a result, especially with the UI elements.

Update 16June2016 ~21:30 hour

From Rasael:
- Dimension Door range set to Long.
- Shadow Jump range set to Long.
- Battle Howl now passes the correct ability-Id to charge, to trigger itself.
- Languages now use the original DMFI mechanic to determine how many you should know.
- A number of exploit fixes.
- Amplify set at Listen +10, following long QC conversation.
- Airball and Whirlpool only spawn one elemental, for now.
- Ki Step is restrained by Dimensional anchors.
- Ki Step now costs 3 uses of stunning fist.

Other:
- Another attempt to get the shrine in Temple of Kossuth to accept donations. If this fails I am just going to delete/static the cursed things. Plus fire-walk adjustments.
- WOST-South should be less spooky
- Triel ... darned if I remember :?

Keep in mind the language indexes now load over time, so expect some l^a^n^g^u^a^g^e^ issues for first 20-30 minutes after server re-start.

As always, post bugs in appropriate forum or add to existing relevant thread.

Overnight 23June2016

About 10 problem quests were temporarily disabled. You will know it if you come across a "Temporarily unavailable" or similar phrasing from quest NPCs. The quests will be re-activated once we resolve the problems with them.
