Resolved Bug Reports / Re: Items that shouldn't be in the grand exchange list

« on: April 28, 2015, 06:07:37 pm »

Oh guys, please don't make such a list. There are probably over 2.000 items that shouldn't be on the search!! I also won't ensure that ONLY available items will be in the GE, simply because collecting that data would take many hours of (useless) typing! There will be certain useless items in the GE search, we'll just live with that.

Though, I want to make sure that there are no doubles of any item and that every item, that really exists in Emps-World, is available on the search list.

It would just make searching a lot easier, and it will look much more professional upon release, perhaps impressing newer, yet experienced players. But alright.

Update Notes / Updates 28/04/2015

« on: April 27, 2015, 11:18:11 am »

Hey guys,

Thanks for testing the Grand Exchange in world 3. I hope you were having fun there not risking any items and running around in the entire Emps-World? I'll fix all bugs on the Grand Exchange next week. If you find bugs/issues on the GE, please post them here.

List of updates:

• Veteran gifts disabled. Old accounts no longer get 1mil cash and a rune armour when they existed in Emps-Scape. Too many people are abusing hacked account password lists to claim multiple veteran gifts. People banned for looting veteran gifts, may now appeal their bans in the helpdesk.
• Godwards interface is back.
• GE fixes. (duping, item search, etc...)
• Name changing system started. I plan to release that after the Grand Exchange.
• Donation logging system updated.
• Several bugfixes from the bug report section.

All the best,
Thomy

@Someone
How the fuck can you say you can pk if there is 10 pkers at a time if your lucky..

That's what I used to say. Then I actually visited Wilderness.

Lets be honest, I am one of the most active pkers around. I have never seen you enter wild, let alone PK.

Lets be honest, I am one of the most active players around. I have never seen you in the whole damn game.

Resolved Bug Reports / Re: Game Client Error

« on: April 20, 2015, 03:30:30 pm »

Have you tried our uninstaller yet? https://emps-world.net/uninstall
Some people have reported the same problem, but yet I don't know what causes the client loader to fail. I could offer to investigate the problem via teamviewer?


EDIT: I've updated the client loader that 'tries' to fix the problem you're suffering from. I'm not totally sure it's gonna help, but you may give it a try? Download the latest loader here: https://emps-world.net/Emps-World.exe

You still don't seem to understand what I had been trying to tell you. People like private servers because they're older or more customized versions of the game. This means anything that isn't current RS could function as a private server. Even just pre-eoc servers, that have nex armours and all that stuff.

OSRS is adding new things too, the difference is their stuff is mostly custom. Though they did add corp and GE, which should both be considered a similar update as to adding something like ancient armours. I really don't see your whole problem with these armours btw, what is it about them that is constantly bothering you?

Void useless? If anything the no-risking void pkers have been absolutely destroyed. Nobody likes killing someone for rune boots and a str ammy, it was becoming a problem. Void still retains the same stats as it did before, it's just dropped on death now. Nothing about it changed in PvM, and if anything the change to void in PvP was for the better.

I find it absolutely hilarious that you're so against change, while that's something OSRS does all the bloody time. Since it's runtime, rs has had a HUGE amount of updates, the difference is they're custom, so people don't whine about them. Let's take korasi as an example, what if we made a completely custom weapon with the exact same stats and the exact same spec as korasi? People wouldn't complain. Why? Because it isn't korasi. People take an item's reputation from RS far too seriously, this is a private server, it's not the same thing. Korasi's spec isn't even mage based, and it doesn't attack multiple targets either.

The server is still not the same as others, our combat system is entirely custom, most armour stats are unlike any other private server, we have a large amount of custom items/dungeons, etc. What people fail so see is what actually got added, people just see the name korasi and instantly go berserk. Think about it instead of whining. Emps can't fully create everything custom, that takes a LOT of time, if we already have a model for something why not use it?

To some people, the entirity of the game is quite an unreachable goal. Others get maxed within a few weeks and get a decent bank doing it. It's those people that get bored of the game. Veterans will be more welcome to change, they've already experienced most of the game and want something else to do. Newer players are afraid they won't be able to keep up with the game. I'd say the game still needs change, whether it's something that already existed or something custom doesn't matter.

Feedback / Emps-World..

« on: April 19, 2015, 07:48:20 am »

Aight so I have talked about this with Charr too, I think Emps-Scape was one of if not the best RSPS. But now what am I seeing? Void has become simply useless. Every single player will get it in about 2 hours or so.. Charr told me we lost alot of players  to OSRS, but can why are you adding new things when as you look at OSRS, its all oldschool and look at that player count.. now take a look at ours and we keep adding new stuff?

Emps used to be one of a kind.. now you have ruined  it and its just one of the others. This is not just me thinking this but theres alot of veterans thinking the same.


Opinions?

Update Notes / Security Batch #1

« on: April 04, 2015, 08:46:18 am »

Hey guys,

Due to the recent website hack, I've decided that we need more security features. As you've probably also already seen, the entire homepage runs under https now. Moreover, I'm changing the hash algorithm that is used in our database to ensure that even hacked passwords will be completely worthless. And that hackers in the future have no way of decrypting 'easy' passwords anymore. I've decided to use 'bcrypt', which is not vulnerable to rainbow attacks (= simple password hacking) and not vulnerable to bruteforcing (guessing until you have the password). The reason for that lies in the complexity of the algorithm, it would take years to bruteforce a password! With this update, the in-game and forum passwords will now also be 100% equal, they are no longer stored as 2 different values.

There will also be a Security Batch #2 in the near future, where I'll make the game client to server connection safer. My plan here is to use RSA for the username and password exchange.

Please note that it's still recommended to change your password here, if you haven't already done so.

All the best,
Thomy

Update Notes / Updates 31/03/2015

« on: March 30, 2015, 02:08:20 pm »

Hey guys,

I've heavily updated the client's rendering procedure. It's not yet fully completed, but the aim is to get much higher fps rates. You can already test out the new mode by typing ::multicore, it can be disabled by typing ::multicore again. If you enable ::multicore, please compare your fps rates and tell me if you actually have an improvement! (::fpson / ::fpsoff) Restart your client before you test it out, else it won't work!!

List of changes and fixes:

• Colored darkbow attack interface and special attack fixed. They're now recognized as 'bows' at their attack styles.
• Sacred clay armour smithing requirement lowered. You now need at least level 8 Smithing to make the whole armour.
• Blessing clay on altars isn't bugged anymore.
• An attempt to fix GWD spawn issues. I was able to reproduce the spawning issue there, but I'm not 100% sure if that's exactly what happened in the live version of emps.
• Morrigan's javelin special attack fixed.
• Sacred clay equipment on level 1 now gives bonuses.
• Sacred clay staff is now a 1-handed weapon.

We're aware of the bug that spams "You've lost your target." in the chatbox. I'm not yet sure what exactly causes the problem. I've added some debugging code that will make it easier for me to finally find and fix the issue.

All the best,
Thomy

Hey guys,

The GE is finally going into alpha stage. We'll now be intensively testing it on our test world 3 (no open alpha; only staff will be able to test it). That means that it will be released as soon as all bugs are fixed! The GE release will be split up into 3 phases:

• Initial GE in-game: Ability to buy/sell items over the system in-game
• Price Monitoring: Price estimations on every item that is bought/sold on the GE system
• Homepage Integration: Graphs of price monitoring on the homepage

In other news, I've made a list of changes:

• You now gain additional shooting distance when fighting larger npcs.
• Sometimes when spam-clicking 'Attack' on npcs with Ranged, you'd walk up to them. That's now fixed.
• Jad minigame difficulty decreased. Every monster in the minigame now has 2/3 of its original health. The italian boot safespot was also improved, using it should be easier now.
• All skeletons now count for a skeleton slayer task.
• A bug was fixed where skillcapes disappeared upon using their emote.

All the best,
Thomy

Suggestions & Ideas / Staff member Of the month

« on: March 13, 2015, 12:49:25 am »

I think that we should start doing staff member of the month again, with a prize of some sort. I think this would drive the staff team to work harder and its  a good reward and shows that we appreciate the work they do for emps world.(not that they already don't work hard enough)  Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
kyle
