Greetings!

Finally! Torta and I have been working a lot these last weeks (send beers and hugs, please) and our new core is ready to be pushed live. We will apply it in 2 hours from now, approximately at 23 PM server time of this Thursday.
We will enter in an undetermined time maintenance, so please, pray for us, send us love and be understanding!

What will change for good?

• Improved scripting
  • Quest scripts
  • World scripts
  • NPC scripts
• Better internal core organization that will lead to faster development.
• Improved database.
• Stability and performance enhancement.

What’s new?

• Diplomacy channel: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=420
• Dynamic speed for mounts: All mounts now have dynamic speed, the speed will adapt along with your riding skill. Now you can use level 1 or level 40 mounts at 100% speed if you have 150 Riding skill, or level 1 at 60% speed if you have 75 Riding skill. Also, all level 1 mounts will have speed depending on your level (the speed increase equals to your level divided by 2). For example, if you use the Riding Turtle or any of the tallstriders at level 30, they will have 15% speed.
• New shop items: We have recreated the shop from scratch to offer new items (new mounts, new pets (i.e. portable auctioneer), new utility items (i.e. portable mailbox), new dressing boxes...) along with the old ones, but better sorted. Some months we can't even cover our hardware costs. If you can please help out by donating, we will be able to keep Turtle WoW running strong!
  Barber shops: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=481

  

• Mailboxes for starting areas.
• The newly added Repair Bot companion will now sell reagents too.
• The Darkmoon Faire is back to its normal schedule.
• Children’s week is back to its normal schedule.
• The Darkreaver Menace quest will now also give its old reward, another helm.
• New Hardcore rewards: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=482
  
  What will come later?
  • Some of the new Hardcore rewards will be available for players who already leveled up in Hardcore Mode.
  • We have in mind some new awesome Sands of Time updates, stay tuned!
  • A new hub for both factions located inside The Caverns of Time where we will offer weekly quests, more things to do, and new rewards!
  • Plainsrunning: it’s functional but we are polishing it a little bit more, it will be added soon.
  • More secret things.
  Join our Discord and stay informed about maintenance and the server update! https://discord.gg/mBGxmHy
  
  Best wishes,
  Turtle WoW Team

Awesome job guys!

The Darkmoon Faire is back to its normal schedule.
Children’s week is back to its normal schedule.

Does it mean once a month for DMF and once a year for "week"?

[Kainnee]

Alright guys, that's all the custom stuff I'm willing to take. I'll take a break from this server for a while.

Thank you for your work and take care. I hope for all of you that the population picks up at some point.

[*]Level 60: Hardcore Master’s Tabard, Darkmoon Strider, Sword of a Thousand Truths.[/list]

Plz, no. No epic-plz-nerf-swords for this. I'd gladly take Disgusting Oozeling over that sword. Plz.

Don't worry Sinrek, it's not really even a sword, just a fun item based in a South Park episode.

[Sinrek]

What's the difference to /silly then?

[Laizek]

Barbers! Cool.

[Pompa]

What's the difference to /silly then?

The sword will whisper you custom jokes!

[Sinrek]

Better make a lantern as an off-hand item with a lightning effect like torch and pimp it with healing aura for +3 each 5 seconds to nearby allies. Every time a person with no effect on would cheer at the bearer.

[Peeves]

Amazing changes... You left me speechless again, guys!

Это как? Покажите на скриншоте, пожалуйста.

Не нашла как на форуме скриншот вставить. Посмотрите в группе ВК в личных сообщениях.

Спасибо, скорее всего проблема у нас, но на всякий случай:

1) Почистите кеш (удалить папку WDB)
2) Обновите ruRU клиент: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1g_wkcc ... ZSXfU/view Скачать обновление от 5.01.2019 и распаковать его в корень игры, согласиться с заменой.
Сегодня ночью поправлю, до этого переключите клиент на английский, извините

[Kazgrim]

Interesting idea with the 'makeup' for humans. Does the scholomance student makeup work for males?

It'd also be interesting to see other races get 'makeup' items that would change their skin. For example, for dark iron dwarves or wildhammers.

Проблема с русской версией все еще актуальна. На втором компьютере и другом аккаунте тоже самое.

Some stuff I noticed in the new patch:
- Mob respawns seem to be quicker
- Mobs seem to run away faster when fleeing
- When I died, ressed at spirit healer and logged of for a few hours, the res sickness debuff was still there at logon. That should not have happened.

a job well done :) looks amazing !
