Graphics

2016 october, 10th

- Upgrade to V3 of the clients will allow to patch very easily all clients at the same time. So the next graphical creation will not wait so many before being implemented in game, adding things will be done by frequent patches, and will be visible by all.
- Graphical creations already done by Ryzom Forge will be implemented in the V3 upgrade : only a few days to wait since Linux and Mac have them also, then we will put them on Atys (or we let them available in appartments).

Anlor Winn scenery
The Anlor Winn scenery (ground, changed trees and animals) is the work of Remigra (Graphics Group). Only a small part of it was used last year because it was too big for a patchlet. Thanks to the V3, everything could be patched this year.

1 Creation of a Fyros defense tower (Aileya)
For the above mentioned event about the Fyros event, The Empire Shield, the graphics team is by now creating the necessary defense tower. It is almost finished already in its shape but needs some more work in texturing. Presuming next week we may can see it already ingame.
Of course it was also planned that players can go to the top of the defense tower, but unfortunately (at least for now) the technical (engine) restrictions are tying our devs hands, so I unfortunately cannot promise we ever could go on top but i am crossing my fingers ! How ever even if not, I hope you will enjoy it anyway!

2 Creation of a plant wall around Yrkanis (Aileya)
Next project after this one will be the creation of a vegetal wall around Yrkanis.

By the way both of these projects can also be found in the roadmap (the first ones you can see there - we are still working on the team itself): http://app.ryzom.com/app_devroadmap/index.php?from_index=1

3 Recruitment
So thats being said. We are always recruiting new graphics volunteers. if you may be interested in joining us and you are having a good hand on new creations (2D and/or 3D), please feel free to send a mail to aileya@ryzom.com.

1 Creation of the defensive Fyros tower (Aileya)
The initial scaffolding is done, there only remains to add collisions and to patch it. It is in the hands of the Dev team.
The tower itself is also done. As soon as some minor bugs are fixed, it can also be passed on to the Dev team.

Q: The tower and the scaffolding? What's the difference?
A: The tower will not come out of the ground directly finished, its construction will be shown in two stages: the scaffolding, then the completed tower.
