But writing and bitching and repeating doesn't really help. If you're really serious about it, try to help the team first. Be there and get to know the team behind Ryzom. The more people from your time zone there are, the sooner it will be possible to change the times for Ryzom Forge Meeting. That's a fact.

Agenda

1- Storyline Rumors feedback

2-  Patch fix (ASAP)

3- Recruitment

1. Storyline: Rumors feedback
2. Next patch
3. Recruitment of volunteers

What do you think of the rumors? If you meet bugs, send us a ticket with the NPC name, it will allow us to be more reactive.
Anyone?

First of all, I would like to say that I posted a message about this in the forum. Then, for some people, who suffer like me, all these clicks are tiring.

Yes, I understand, but in a video game, we can hardly do otherwise. Besides, you can do it in pieces, in small steps.
It's a long time event :).

I wanted to second Craftjenn's statement, that the interface is a bit difficult. Since the dialogue is only read by the player, with no options. Why not simplify the text? You could place the player's question to the NPC, the NPC answer and the player reaction in one single chat bubble, that only requires one click.

No, that's the point, the NPC will give you an answer, before knowing what it is (normally the NPCs always give the same answers). But the process requires the 2 steps, if you are given the answer at the same time as the question, it doesn't make sense :)

I want only to say that the second set of rumors (about kitins) is much more interesting…
And thank Ulukyn for his availability on the remaining bugs.

I will send your remark to Ulukyn :)

I may be the only one, but since I don't understand everything, I just click and see if the yellow passphrase appears (this to answer the question about the boring show).

No, I don't think you're the only one, but beware, rumours contain information for the future. :)

Added: A window can snap on to other windows.
Changed: MP3 player shows absolute path, media format info on sysinfo.
Fixed: MP3 player shows error when sound is disabled.
Added: New /showHideUserLandMark command to hide markers on map.
Fixed: The client window is no more focused and mouse is no more frozen when loading or teleporting.

Changes in Daily Missions
Added: Basic tokens as an option for a reward.
Changed: Increase of 20% the rewards for Missions based in Occupations Products.
Changed: Reduction of wanted items for Occupations Products with a grade higher or equal to 2.

Added: RP tags for Fyros, Matis, Tryker, Zorai, Kami, Karavan, Marauder and Ranger.
To get these tags you must equipe a jewel on the earring and use Elyps on nation or faction merchant to grave the Allegorie on it.
Equip or unequip the jewel to display or hide the RP tag.
These tags are displayed only when you are PVP tagged.
You can show or hide the tag when you want, if you are PVP tagged and hide the tags, the current PVP icon (two crossed words) will be displayed.
To understand better how Allegories works and comes, you can talk with Zin Di-Dao in the Kitins' Lair of Almati Wood and start a chained rumors.

I hoped to obtain a link here about reviewing one's own already heard rumours.

Ulukyn has something like that planned, but I don't know exactly what…

The said link for rumors works, but only within a guild.
It allows everyone to know how many rumors the guild has collected, and, in addition, by selecting a player you can see the rumors they have collected.

"A window can snap on to other windows."? And "The client window is no more focused and mouse is no more frozen when loading or teleporting."? Could you be more specific, please?

So, for the mouse, it's especially for those who are in multiscreens, when you launch a ryzom client and you are doing something else, the mouse will be immediately taken by the open interface and you will type out of your window.
Moniq you tested "A window can snap to other windows", can you tell us about it?

I hear about that for the first time or I don't understand what you mean.

Ok, i will share information (i will test it probably) when I get some. OK ?
No one have questions about the tags ?

its not been translated to english. if you enlighten us first, please :)

Added: RP tags for Fyros, Matis, Tryker, Zorai, Kami, Karavan, Marauder and Ranger
To get these tags you must equipe a jewel on the earring and use Elyps on nation or faction merchant to grave the Allegorie on it
Equip or unequip the jewel to display or hide the RP tag
These tags are displayed only when you are "PVP" tagged.
You can show or hide the tag when you want, if you are PVP tagged and hide the tags, the current PVP icon (with 2 crossed words) will be displayed.
Better like this ?

The PVP tags have many times hindered my healing during bosshunts, is there no way to remind PVP and any other player characters to deactivate PVP tag for those events? Or to automatically deactivate PVP status upon entering into such events?

No, it's a player stuff. You all have to think about it, we cannot automatize all stuff, Ryzom would loose his soul :)

All that is surely correct as such, but when i try to heal anyone still active in PVP mode then I cannot. Instead I merely hang in the air and no healing takes place.

That's the PVP rule. If you are PVP tagged, you take the risk of dying, players who are not tagged cannot resurrect you, heal you, and so on. It's a player's choice and we're only offering more possibilities to players with this new tag.

As I understand it, a tag is added to say, "I'm not looking for PVP, but I don't want to be attacked"?

No... We're gonna add more variations, namely one can tag nation and or faction. Not all tags will be PVP but as long as you choose an allegiance, if you activate a tag, you'll be vulnerable :)

We are looking for volunteers to join :

• Translation Team: ES and RU translators/proofreaders;
• Computer-Graphics Team: graphic designers (3D / 2D);
• Support Team: EN and FR CSRs;
• Dev/Ark Team: developers, as well as volunteers who will be trained on the Ark creation tool;
• Level Design Team;
• Event Animation Team: to design/write and/or animate events.

I take upon my time to get up early and chat with the players of the US timezone, but it is essential to find volunteers to enliven their time slot. I can do once a month the same Ryzom Forge meeting as for the EU zone, but not more. So it's important that we have volunteers living in America, first in the Support Team but, why not, for events too (I know… I am dreaming :P ).
So, if you're interested, please send a mail to Tamarea or contact her on rocket chat
But there are needs for EU timezone too :)

Agenda

1- New billing

2- New website

3- Storyline: episode 1

Définition: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiboxing
Je dois expliquer clairement le multiboxing : C'est la possibilité de connecter plusieurs personnages en même temps sur un même serveur qu'on ne peut pas assimiler à l'utilisation d'un programme externe pour commander un ou plusieurs personnages.
Changement
Ryzom est un jeu coopératif, aussi, travailler à plusieurs est une nécessité. Le fait d'avoir un partenaire à soi, pour aider au forage et au stockage voire au soin est communément admis, mais avoir une armée d'avatars à ses ordres n'a aucun sens, le jeu y perd de son essence.
Afin de préserver cette essence et l’âme d'un jeu où la collaboration est encouragée, nous avons décidé de ne plus tolérer que le contrôle de 2 personnages en même temps par utilisateur et ceci uniquement dans le cadre d'une utilisation raisonnable.
En conséquence, le Code de Conduite sera modifié pour spécifier que "le nombre de personnages contrôlés simultanément par une même personne physique est limité à 2, dans le cadre d'une utilisation raisonnable, raisonnée et sans automatisation." Une limite au niveau du serveur sera mise en place pour ça.

Pour conclure
Nous avons travaillé depuis quelques années à refaire les outils, les maitriser et les rendre plus sympas pour pouvoir ajouter du contenu. Et avec la storyline c'est ce que nous allons faire. Faire évoluer l'histoire et ajouter de nouvelles choses.
Et, du coup le problème des alts s'est aussi posé (de mon coté, en tant que développeur).
Avec la storyline, en effet, nous allons ajouter de nouveaux challenges. Parfois le meilleur groupe (qui pourra être composé de seulement quatre joueurs) sera récompensé. Si la meilleure équipe se trouvait être quatre alts (et ce n'est pas impossible car c'est dans certains cas un avantage) cela serait pour nous plutôt décevant.

La storyline est le fil roleplay conducteur suivi par les équipes de Ryzom. Elle regroupe un ensemble d’événements roleplay et d'ajouts gameplay, bâti sur une histoire dynamique.
Lors du prologue de l'actuelle Saison 2, la rumeur nous a appris que des choses se préparaient. En ce début d'épisode 1, un fort tremblement d'écorce a secoué Atys, bouleversant le paysage du Nexus. Les homins enquêtent actuellement sur place.
Quels sont vos retours sur ce début d'épisode 1 ?

Des missions vont être ajoutées prochainement, c'est juste le début : vous n'imaginez pas ce qu'on vous a concocté pour la suite !
Mais nous ajoutons les choses par morceaux pour éviter les gros bogues, c'est tout : le code du jeu est chatouilleux comme vous le savez.

Nous avons besoin de traducteurs DE, ES et RU mais aussi de relecteurs EN.
Des testeurs actifs sont également demandés.
