And we'll start as usual with the feedbacks. Are there any feedbacks/comments/suggestions about the last patch?

I won't go into detail, but it might give you an idea.

The QoL (Quality of Life) patches will continue to add new features to make the game more enjoyable and fix bugs. And in order to make the work of the devs easier, we have gathered the whole client code in one place: https://gitlab.com/ryzom/ryzom-core, whereas it was previously on 3 different repositories.
You can now see the list of issues (bugs): https://gitlab.com/ryzom/ryzom-core/-/issues
Everything is public :)

About the Storyline, it will start again soon, we had a rather busy year and we couldn't progress on it as we wanted.
We'll have to improve this in order to make it progress more regularly, the lessons system should help :)

Speaking of lessons, we will obviously continue the tutorial and lessons on nations/factions. Especially since it's pretty quick to do now that the system is coded.

We will continue to add the rewards to Rywards so that it can list all the items to be won. Including the underwear (and I know this will make people happy :D )

Finally, and still with the idea of finishing things that are not finished, the guild islands will be fixed and finished (with the possibility to visit other islands).
Content for the guilds can then be added.
This is the big development axis we have planned.

Of course the ongoing projects like op refactoring, bosses refactoring and all refactorings will be continued and finalized.

Agenda

• Boss refactoring
• Rywards
• OP refactoring

The next patch (which we plan to apply this Friday starting at 23:00 UTC—expect about 2 hours of downtime on the game server) implements the activation of Bosses in all regions of Atys. The new Bosses system has indeed been running smoothly for several weeks now in Prime Roots.
The associated guild application may not have been updated yet, but it will be shortly after the patch.
In the new regions concerned (on the surface of Atys), the species of the 6 Bosses that will receive your assaults will be chosen exclusively from those present in the region. However, the places where the Bosses obeying a particular mechanic appear (such as Gebre, Cratchakin, Shooketh, etc.) will remain unchanged.
The redesign of the Bosses will then proceed with the testing and implementation of new mechanics for all Bosses, wherever they spawn on Atys.

The above mentioned patching will be accompanied by a rotation of the outposts (OP) and followed by an bidding period set this time to about ten days (in order to include two weekends).
The distribution of OP materials has been reviewed: after this rotation all types of materials (8 in all) will be available in Q250, Q200 and Q150 on at least one of Atys' OPs. Therefore, no Q250 material will be missing during the so started cycle.

We will continue the migration of rewards into Rywards (shift+e) to include everything possible to include and make it a big catalog.
Like mounts, the Zigs will be migratable in Rywards which will make it easier to change them and not risk losing them. For that, as for the mounts again, it will be necessary to send them to the pasture to then list them in Rywards. It will not be necessary for a Zig to be in the stable to be able to replace it with another one, it will be enough for it to be in your bag. Only Zig #1, however, will be substitutable: the others will have to go through the pasture to be substituted. As it is already the case with the mounts, the inventories will not be affected by this operation.
Underclothes will be real underclothes, usable as such, not equipable inventory items anymore. Therefore, it will be enough to equip them once for them to hide (or highlight) your character's forms when this one takes off her/his armor, without depriving you of any slot that can be occupied by a piece of armor. Trading them will still be possible but will be done via a special interface allowing you to indicate the name of the character and via Izam exchange.

Agenda

• New Ticket system
• New Encyclopedia
• Allegories

Ryzom's ticket system, which regulates the interactions between the support team and the players, has been updated for a new interface and better usability.
You will find in a few minutes, the details of the changes of use implied by this improvement in the announcement published on the forum.
I only specify here that some categories of posts can only be read by Senior Game Masters.

In fact, we talk about "new" because the interface and some other things will change, but the idea remains the same. The Encyclopedia will remain a collection of rites, each of which will unlock an interesting item (a stanza or access to a new in-game ability) along with a text explaining the thing. But sometimes, several rites will have to be completed to obtain such an item.
The interface of this new Encyclopedia is largely inspired by that of the lessons. It will present a complete list of "finishable" rites (those that a player character can actually accomplish).

Some of the rites proposed by the current Encyclopedia will be gradually converted into a new version where :
• the pre-ritual missions, although as simple as the current ones, will be more in line with the objective of the rite and not ordinary missions;
• except for four of them (national rites providing the same stanza in a specific version for each nation), no fame condition will be required;
• the progression in the rite will be in six steps (each corresponding to a face of an amber cube);
• the first and last steps of the rite will require dialogue with an NPC;
• the three steps following the first one will consist in the completion of simple missions (current pre-ritual assignments, rewritten);
• the fifth step will require the completion of a more complex and challenging mission: the "ritual quest", which constitutes the rite itself.

As for the future rites, they will also include six steps, but the character of each one will vary according to the rite that they will compose.

I remind you that allegories are engravings that a Majestic Garden NPC applies on jewels which, once engraved and when worn by the character, give the latter special abilities. Because they are rarely used by players, because they are expensive, because it is not easy to get one for each ecosystem, and because some of them are no longer very useful, the system that regulates their use will be reworked.

But above all, we are going to add three new ones that should be more interesting. The first one will allow the wearer to obtain generic materials instead of those he currently gets by looting on killed creatures. Thus, the player, if he simply wants to increase his character's skills of armorer, tailor, etc. through training, will be able to alternate hunting sessions with crafting sessions.

The other two new allegories are identical in their effects, but one is for use during hunting sessions and the other during drilling sessions. They will give the character n % chance to find, while drilling or hunting, an object to identify buried in the bark or in the corpse of a creature.
The quality of these items will depend on the level of the region where they have been collected and they will be extremely diverse: excellent and supreme materials (these very rare), materials from a Boss of the region (also very rare), generic colored materials, pieces of pattern of weapon winnable at the Wheel, etc. Note, however, that generic weapon patterns will not be such items: they will be in the Encyclopedia.
In addition, we plan to introduce, in the fure, every week or month, special items for an unique player to find. If you have ideas for other such items, do not refrain from proposing them on the forum. Of course, the more valuable the item to be identified, the rarer it will be.
During a session, the wearer of the allegory will be able to obtain an item to identify on any creature (or source of raw materials), regardless of the number of creatures killed (or sources exhausted) during the session. Indeed, the popping of the item depends on successive dice rolls at a frequency calculated from the n % mentioned above.
Finally (the best, in my opinion) some objects to be identified will be treasure maps indicating more or less precisely the location of a chest to be extracted from the bark, and it will be up to you to set up a group expedition to go and get it.
The chest in question could contain various precious objects, Elyps and other tokens, as well as (even if it is not really decided yet) the Muse-Ham dress (LAM skin 3).

Vingt jours de festivités seront organisés, du 16 septembre (jour anniversaire de la sortie du jeu au États-Unis) au 5 octobre 2024. Un gâteau et un feu d'artifice (voire deux) sont notamment prévus et, plusieurs mini-jeux seront proposés tout au long de cette période, intégralement HRP. Il y aura des objets uniques à gagner mais ce seront des objets décoratifs uniquement.
Toutefois, comme le roleplay fut et demeure l'âme de Ryzom, certains moments seront consacrés à cet aspect du jeu. En outre nous essaierons, durant ces 20 jours, d'évoquer ce qu'a été le jeu à ses débuts et de montrer que, malgré ses 20 ans d'âge, il continue à évoluer.
Nous pensons ouvrir un fil de discussion sur le forum ou sur les réseaux sociaux où vous pourrez laisser vos messages et autres créations vidéos et dessins (ou tout autre idée destinée à souhaiter un joyeux anniversaire à Ryzom) ou nous dire ce que Ryzom a représenté pour vous pendant ces 20 années. Si vous avez une idée géniale mais que vous avez besoin d'un peu d'aide vous pouvez nous contacter par le biais de Pavor (via message privé dans Ryzom chat).
Pour terminer, je voudrais vous rappeler que nous souhaitons que cette fête vous ressemble : nous attendons donc vos suggestions sur le fil de discussion Boite à idées pour les 20 ans de Ryzom du forum.
À vous La parole ! Des questions, des suggestions, des remarques…

Je vais aller vite sur ce sujet, comme je ne suis pas en très grande forme. Je garde mes forces pour le suivant.
En fait, je pensais demander ici vos retours sur la Refonte de Silan, mais je crois que le mieux est d'ouvrir au forum un fil sur lequel vous pourrez les donner. Toutefois, nous avons déjà prévu de supprimer le petit coffre pour ne garder qu'un seul grand coffre et placer un coffre permanent n'offrant que des psykoplas.
C'est tout pour ce sujet (j'ai fait très court :D)

Celles-ci sont en test depuis plusieurs jours et sont en bonne voie pour une mise en place prochaine. Le système qui a été choisi est le suivant.
• Les inventaires de guildes (accessibles depuis les Îles de guildes) vont être divisés en plusieurs coffres (20 au maximum).
• L'onglet Guilde de l'inventaire sera remplacé par deux onglets, GH 1 et GH 2, chaque onglet pouvant afficher le contenu d'un des coffres de la guilde. On peut donc voir en simultané deux coffres et il est possible de choisir le coffre dont on affiche le contenu.
• Chaque coffre possédera 500 emplacements et une capacité de volume variable. Il sera possible de faire construire de nouveaux coffres (dans la limite de 20) sur l'Île de guilde. Il y apparaîtront physiquement et pourront être agrandis individuellement, c'est à dire augmentés en volume.
• Il sera possible de nommer chaque coffre pour mieux s'y retrouver, mais aussi d'accorder, selon le grade dans la guilde (membre, officier ou plus, officier supérieur ou plus, chef seul) trois permissions :
 — 1 : Qui peut voir le contenu du coffre ;
 — 2 : Qui peut déposer dans le coffre ;
 — 3 : Qui peut prendre dans le coffre.
Un membre non autorisé à voir le contenu d'un coffre ne pourra pas, non plus, y déposer des objets et il ne pourra y avoir qu'un seul coffre réservé au chef de guilde.
• Chaque coffre disposera d'un menu permettant son changement de taille, de nom ou de permissions.
• Construire de nouveaux coffres et agrandir les existants coûtera de plus en plus cher. Ce coût sera payable uniquement en matières premières suprêmes de forage ou en points de guilde, moyens de paiement auquel nous ajouterons peut-être les MP collectées sur les Rois (en test actuellement).
Des questions ?
