A hostfag with some "decent" Java coding experience is probably priority. Also a map to build the actual server off of. While the host mods and fixes the skills/gains and recruits badmins we can start rallying the troops and challenge our halfchan rivals.
Meanwhile as the villages are getting started badmins could be organizing special events for competition between the two. Or challenges that include everyone in a village to work together to complete before the other village does. Might not work as smoothly as that but it's an idea.
As for gains anywhere from 1x/1x to 2x/2x is fine with me, so long as the drops are vanilla. Also epic is for the weak :^)

Brohan partially died because the admin, great as he was, didn't know how to fix the server over one retarded bug. Buying the game, for $1US, and having an official server seems like a smarter and a safer option. What is it to host a month, $10US? Surely there's someone who could manage that.

Also,while everyone becoming a buyfag,would for the sake of stability be optimal,it will also cut down almost totally on newblood,with some old aswell.
I doubt newfags will buy wurm even if its just 1$,simply because wurm,at face value seems like a game with really good concept,but piss poor execution with tedious and frustrating gameplay,like so many others would be great games.
Of course those who have played know better,i don't think i've seen 1 anon who's said:

Dungeons, pyramids, and necropoli hoarding rare metals, items and loot sounds like a plan. All that space to fill, imagine one huge city of the dead ripe for plundering, with intermittent hidden locales. Could have materials like gold, silver, marble, etc as area-specific as well. You could have smaller veins map-wide, but make them rich over there. That's how you'd get people into that desert.

start making maps
any software that can save the image in 16-bit greyscale .png-file will do
.<Map Height> / 255 = height difference between greyscale values in in-game layers
if you make your world too tall you'll have steep hills everywhere even if the greyscale value only differs by 1
make good use of layers for different heights, and use transition layers between different heights aswell unless it's for steep mountain walls
use noise to generate height variations and gaussian blur for smoothing transitions between different heights across the whole map
Do NOT use noise and blur on the file with layers, export all layers to a new flat (only 1 layer) image first
when happy with result import the image into Wurm Map Generator and add dirt layer, water height (keep in mind hight of dirt layer), grass, trees, biomes etc
don't forget to generate the ore layer
or leave the last steps up to the server host to sort out

We've been discussing about putting resources in certain areas, in this particular case it would be tar in the desert. But >>14208192 is way too much desert.

Such is the nature of a desert map.

According to the wiki, that can be manufactured from charcoal piles. Any resources that would be found in the desert would need to either be strictly difficult to find elsewhere or only found in the desert. It doesn't have to be so much desert, but I do back the idea of a desert-dominated map with all the enticements of venturing into.
Throw in mountain ranges to make the transition into the area difficult, make the desert mountainous and hilly as possible, plateau it, fill it with hidden with locations and goodies. Is it possible to regulate certain plants as habitable to certain biomes or just as originating in those biomes?

In-game, surely so. The best thing to get comfy with is the wiki wurmpedia.com. If "not until summer" is what we're really doing, there's no rush. You can always get some practice in before the server goes up. But what you really want is to have some thought before hand on what occupation looks the most appealing to you.

You could always read up on the wiki or watch some 40 hour intro to wurm video.

The parts about how each skill can help other skills can be important, such as body/mind helping with basically everything else.
Go on to the wiki and find some sort of job you think is fun and actually useful then look up videos on how to do that job to get an idea of what it's going to be like.

Paving needs high gains. It determines how high you can build stone floors, not masonry. So if you want to build a stone house you either need to get a carpenter to build your floors of you need to grind paving forever, because even the people building roads everywhere aren't going to match the masonry gains you get just from preparing the materials for a house.

I also agree that we need to find out what skills are honestly a hell on earth to train like >>14211125 pointed out paving and HFCanon, along with meditation and mining. Are we able to adjust timers along with rates? Timer would be helpful to deal with mining although I'm not sure if we could adjust timers for cooking to be more exact (and maybe shorter) or if we just go ahead and say give cooking a better ratio for playing with such an odd If reasonably comfy in my opinion I'm a sucker for cooking classes/skills system?

I wanted the steppe to only be in one part of the map so if people want hellhorses they have to travel there, kind of like the concept with the desert, it made the most sense to put them where the steppes are in real life, so they just ended up being near the north where snow naturally goes.

I'll try to add beaches, as for clay, it's there, just look more closely. Auto placed then hand-placed it in a bunch of places to make sure it's around.
>I'm not sure if that's a small volcano with lava pouring out of it or just some lava pits.
Me neither, since you can only get a vague idea of altitude in this map editor. I guess we'll see when the map is finished. Lava cools over time anyway so it's not actually possible to make a permanent volcano.
>>14212292
It is a lot of water, but that's just the consequence of where I cut it off really. If I extended it any further to fill the square I'd just be including desert wasteland or steppe wasteland in Africa or Russia.

Not true. It might appear that way because a lot of the shores have dirt on them rather than grass, because of the way WGen likes to import biome images after re-making maps from the same heightmap. The slopes on the shores (excluding those on the edges of the map) are actually perfectly navigable and pretty shallow. The dirt will turn to grass after a little time passes in Wurm and grass naturally grows onto the dirt tiles. If they were actually cliffs you'd be seeing rock tiles, like on the bottom edge of the map near the jungle or in the far east past where Persia got cut off.
>concentrated steppe; live near or fuck you when you need more bison
Or you travel there and get some, that was the point. The steppe is in the steppe. This could always be changed of course, I just figured it would fit the theme of different parts of the map having different resources.
>huge swathes of empty ocean
If you mean at the edges of the map, see >>14212320, it's just a result of where I cut it off. If you mean the Mediterranean and Black seas… Uh, well, the whole point was to use a real-world heightmap so, yeah it has those.
I don't know if it would be a good map to play on but I've seen way worse. That map you posted looks pretty good in some ways, has some significant problems but also some good points.

Everyone wants at least 4 bison, and that's the most they can lead at a time anyway. Sometimes you lose some on the way back, sometimes they drop dead at home or wander off when you have to untie them from the wagon for water reason and bolt before you can lead them. You *will* have to return to the steppe for more bison, probably two or more times, and it's annoying enough without the nearest one being potentially on the opposite end of that map.
Real world emulation makes for bad gameplay. Variation is what makes a map interesting; having every different terrain concentrated in one huge blob, whether ocean or desert, is boring as fuck.

Both maps including yours aren't that bad. My only concern is that mainly your map (and slightly the Greek-Mid East map) is just too big for the population we will be hosting. Its just "there" to be adventured, but there isn't any reason to travel to another region unless you put resources in specific geographies. You do have nice chokepoints in your map though, but the map is too big to achieve any real "chokepoint".
An example is this world map. There is reason to travel to the various cities because each city sells unique/rare armor, and each city accompanies a unique spawn of monsters, where each monster may drop a unique item/weapon/armor.
That's a major aspect lacking in Wurm. Just sad we can't do that. That's why I want a small map, since the main thing we should be doing is coming into conflict with the ENEMY for either 1. both attempting to gather the same resource at an exclusive region, or 2. traveling and ganking players near known spots of levelling / resource gathering.

There aren't really any resources that can be limited in the first place. There's only really clay and moonmetal. Limiting clay would be retarded. Making moonmetal veins appear only on a small island like someone else suggested, I think in the last thread, seems like a good idea. But I think it would be better to make that vein only be low ql because once you have access to it you can mine a lot of it. That way people could only use it to make the items, you would still need to find high ql moonmetal in order to imp, which would be much more limited.

Technically, it is possible to do some of that in Wurm, it's just a huge pain in the ass and the game isn't really designed to work that way.
For example, you can make admin-owned permanent deeds with merchants whose inventories are manually stocked with desired goods. You can also give these goods unique names, materials, and/or enchantments, including ones not normally obtainable. You can also make these into treasure, quest rewards, or whatever.
You can spawn manually monsters with abnormal characterstics, and certain monsters already only spawn in certain biomes so you have that covered to a degree. Furthermore, some monsters don't naturally spawn at all in the world and can only be summoned by admins so they can be used to make boss encounters more interesting (remember the Deathcrawler minions? yeah I bet you do).
You can also sort of make monsters drop items, but not directly. You have to manually give whoever kills the boss monster the item in question. It's also possible to track which unique monsters are still alive and their location for this purpose.
I think you might notice a pattern in all this: It all has to be done manually. The fact that any of this is even possible is really just a coincidence, Wurm was never designed to support any of this. It's meant to run on its own with minimal admin intervention and the design philosophy is meant to limit admin powers to as few people as possible (because Rolf is a paranoid fuck).
However if you want to achieve what you're talking about you need very active admin(s), creative people, a tailor-made map, and even then it probably still won't work out, because Wurm simply isn't made for this kind of thing. You can't even make a monster drop a key to a chest, for example, because monsters don't drop arbitrary items in their inventory that you gave them when they die. You can't create an impassable area on water to prevent someone from just sailing around a "chokepoint", you have to raise the earth to ground level then construct an unbreakable fence, or raise the earth to the skybox. You can't make a creature stay in one spot unless you literally build a fucking house around it or lock it in a cave - in which case it's no longer really a danger to a wandering player, is it? You can't even make proper dungeons because there's no method of gating progress that doesn't also allow the player to just run past whatever's in the room if they feel like it. The simplest things are impossible because the system isn't made to support them. If you have some imagination you can achieve a bit, but there are limits - unless you have an admin literally float there invisibly and control everything by hand like a DM.
I agree that both maps are probably too big. The 4k map is ridiculously huge though now that I think about it, I think people are forgetting that a 4k map is FOUR times as large as a 2k map, not two times, so just sailing from one end to the other is the equivalent of sailing from one corner of the 2k map to the other, following the edges and turning on a right angle, the longest possible trip.
>>14212502
>>14212483
It's possible to set areas as undeedable iirc, however as >>14212528 said there are hardly any vital resources that can be limited in the first place. Limiting clay is out of the question because you need it to make really basic stuff. That would kill the game before it begins. On the flipside, having moonmetal available at all on the map is probably a bad idea, imo it should be a reward for defeating powerful bosses, winning HOTA, stuff like that. Otherwise you run into the snowballing problem where one faction finds a vein and they have an advantage, then they use that to get another advantage, then they use that, and so on, until gg everyone quits. The only other resources to limit are:
>Iron: used for way too many things, like clay this is too fundamental to be limited
>Copper/Tin/Bronze: Barely useful at all, its uses overlap almost entirely with iron. no point in limiting this.
>Zinc/Brass: Would be the same as above, except Dioptras which are required to build bridges need Brass, an alloy of Copper and Zinc, so it's somewhat useful. But bridges are mostly for aesthetics anyway.
>Lead: lol
>Silver: Primarily used to make statuettes and grind money. Could be limited but it might not have much of an effect.
>Gold: Same as Silver except it's worth more but can be used for slightly fewer things. Imo, this is the best candidate for limiting to a certain area because it's worth a lot in cash but doesn't have any vital uses. But then again it's only worth as much as the starter deed merchant will pay for it (his money runs out eventually) so even that value is finite.

You'd be onto something big if you could take a game like that and turn it into something real. People have wanted "D&D but I can see it in front of me and it's a sandbox" forever. The problem is that would require taking human imagination and putting it in computer form. So either you boil things down to where they're meaningless, or you have to put in so much effort it's not worth the investment to most people. Just look at Dwarf Fortress attempting to solve that problem by inventing a system that procedurally generates its own lore, its own setting, its own NPCs, its own random encounters, its own boss fights, its own artifacts, etc. Or Minecraft and its clones attemping to solve it in the opposite direction, by giving players a basic sandbox and saying "now make believe". The alternate solution is: Simply keep the human DM. I think it worked reasonably well on Brohan for what it's worth, you just have to have someone who wants to do it and realizes that if they DM they can't play with everyone else.
>>14212845
It's partly due to that, and partly because the admin tools for the game are so shit. The game is not designed to be actively interfered with, I'm pretty sure Rolf went out of his way to make it a pain in the ass to do anything, to prevent a rogue admin from screwing over Wurm Online and killing his cash cow.

>Making moonmetal veins appear only on a small island like someone else suggested, I think in the last thread, seems like a good idea
Last time I played with moonmetal veins (~late 2015-early 2016) they gave less than 10 kgs of smelted ore, and required ridiculous mining levels to get non crap ql ores. So if we do play with them on they'd probably be used as crafting lumps, or hoarded until we feel comfortable mining them, while we'd need to save the higher lumps found for imping. I'm personally against moonmetal veins, having moonmetal ores drop rarely like gems would work much better.
If we do use the veins I'm against them being hand placed. It's one thing to have the ore map and use it to hunt down prime mine locations, but knowing where every single one is would be a massive advantage to the mapmaker.
68df11 No.14213011
Restricting both silver and gold to specific spots is a bad idea,since its used for statuettes which are needed for priests to cast spells/convert.
Having silver not restricted and gold restricted makes the most sense,if you want to go down that path at all.
Something i haven't seen discussed is the White/Black altar,i think there is alot of potential with this for PVP encouragement,Followers who are converted by a priest still need to make a pilgrimage if they themselves wish to become priests,this could be extended to disallowing priests to convert at all,which would force factions to organize additional trips to their respective altars to allow those without a deity to pick up one and enjoy its bonuses.Isolating a faction from its respective altar is something that punishes 1 faction but doesn't instantly give a huge advantage to the opposing one,this advantage of course grows the longer 1 faction is cut off from its altar,since it would then not be able to have new priests/followersif convertion is disabled/ChampionsOnly work properly with ebin since altars tend to be on each end of the map,holding the altar of the oposite faction might just not be worth it due to the logistics involved,of course this is up to both factions to decide.
Also i believe the next big topic should be about wether we'll have ebin or not unless only I see it as a dillemma While i think most would prefer it off,without it there is also no Missions/Valrei,which in turn means no unique mobs and the possibility of becoming a Champion and beyond that a Demigod,no HOTA which in turn means no shoulders/moonmetals/other i believe there is a way to acquire moonmetals outside of HOTA which involves active volcanos but i don't know enough about it,Archery towers don't work either without ebin,and i believe ebin balances out PVP by having strenght not be such a deciding factor in PVP seeing as this gives an inherent advantage to PVP to those whose professions allows them to skill Body Strenght by default unlike say a cook/fisher/tailor and others i can't remember.While i'd like to ram my EFFECTIVE DICK up rolf's asshole for tying so many good features to an absolutely horrendous system,i still think it should be debated,and its pros and cons weighted.

Why do people think this? regional ore distribution only needs to be painted in broad strokes, It's not like we would need to have only 1 or 2 patches being the only source on the entire map.
Resources should be spread out within a region, and still available outside of it. But they are much more common and higher quality in those areas.
although I can't find any tools that let you edit the ore map anyway, so all this might be pointless. WurmAPI seems to be able to, but no actual tools.

>why do people think this
I believe it's an attempt to encourage PVP by limiting resources,it's a fine idea on paper but i think it just doesn't work in practice,only gold off the top of my head is a resource that is inherently valuable while not one necessary for specific/high impact crafting recipes,sure without it you can't have the assthicc gold altars and their huge radius of influence,but it's not something that just gives your oposition an insurmountable advantage unlike moonmetals

literally every time a server is mentioned the limited resources "idea" is brought up and it's just as shit as x1 rates all round "idea" and at this point I'm considering it to just be shitters trying to fuck shit over before we even get anything started, remember there is like two or three fuckers who regularly try to fuck every kinda 8chan server thing we do because they're that autistic

Booted this map up in a server just to fly around and see what it actually looks like. It turned out completely unplayable, because the ground is very bumpy and full of ridges as I expected, however geographically I think it looks kind of cool. I'm gonna dump pictures of it to bump the thread and to show you guys since it will probably never be hosted.
>1: Crimean peninsula
>2: Cyprus and the Levantine coast. Can't see it here, but Lebanon has a few cedar trees.
>3: Come visit beautiful Africa! Full of savage creatures who will attack you on sight for no reason, and I don't mean the spiders!
>4: The clusterfuck jungle dense chestnut forest :^) that is sub-Saharan Africa. Also pictured is the Nile in the distance. The Nile itself came out pretty well, the banks are mostly accessible and it's more than deep enough to accommodate ships. But the surrounding areas look a little janky.
>5: The Sahara desert. You can see in this picture what I mean by "bumpy", the tiles alternate between flat and sloped, so the map is full of ridges. Walking up hills is like climbing stairs. Forget running from enemies on a mount, your horse gives up on half the slopes. We played on a map like this once and it was hell, never again.

>7: The Carpathians stand tall in the distance, even over the treetops. This map has some really tall mountains even though some parts are completely flat.
>8: THE PATTERNS, WHAT DO THEY MEAN? ARE THEY CROP CIRCLES? (this is what I meant, the topography is fucked, so the map can't actually be used)
>9: Wurm: Horse Lords. The steppe is supremely fucked with the bumps, flat areas make it really noticeable.

>14: The Dardanelles and the Sea of Marmara. The Dardanelles sadly ended up being connected, I'd definitely admin that to be passable. Certain areas of the map are very rough like this (read: all of them)

You ignore that there is still months to get the map right, that terraforming is a thing, and that the whole point of the desert is to make it a bitch to traverse because it contains precious goods. The map is fine, there's no reason to throw it out because it still needs ironing out. If I can make any suggestions, all that desert in the north should be reverted to steppe and snow. Maybe have Palestine greened over flatlands hitting in the mountain ranges that should be surrounding that desert. It feels like something more should be going on west of the Nile, too. It really is a fine map, I'd hate to see it go so early in development when nothing better has been offered up as an alternative.

If you're experienced at the game you're never going to be relying on lower skilled people. If anyone says they'll make you tools for coin though, don't do it.

But traders are just an intermediary for player trade. It's the same thing as buying directly from them except that there's no risk of getting cheated, but the traders take a cut so the buyer pays more of the seller pays less and it's less convenient if the trader isn't nearby. Everything is limited by skill, but if someone else has higher skill in something it can be useful to buy from them.

The default for iron looks fine to me.
Having almost everything evenly distributed is best, it's just the really rare stuff we need to work on.
Last thread I suggested we have an infinite moonmetal island that is undeedable and possibly guarded by some sort of guardian creature with a fairly high respawn rate.
Now I'm not so sure since it's an exponential growth problem for the kingdom who can gather it first.
So I guess having it dropped by high level rare creatures is a better way to go.
It would require a kingdom to band together and encourage exploration.
Is the admin who created those dungeon quests here?
Have you thought about working on improving that system?
It was a very nice thing to see and I'd hate to see that potential go to waste.

g2a looks sketchy as fuck. your going to have to go out and buy a prepaid to use that site.
https://www.trustpilot.com/review/g2a.com
this was the review site they were shilling on their product pages and their front-page, I don't even see it anymore, they took it off.
https://www.trustpilot.com/review/g2a.com?languages=en&stars=1
they're getting 20-40 1 star reviews a day, and I'm sure the chinks are faking the 80% five star reviews, because fake reviews are a chink specialty.
the code from g2a can be yanked from steam at anytime and apparently often does, and it puts your steam account at risk if you really care. still, for $1, it might be worth buying 3 or 4 keys if you have to and using a throwaway steam account to redeem them, but somehow I think steam will just shoah the throwaway account. Can you even redeem a key without giving steam all your information?
93d419 No.14216956
>>14216949
this is assuming you actually get a valid key, which often doesn't happen, and the $1 is assuming they don't overcharge you card, which also happens, either was some random ludicrous amount, or they're "g2a shield" scam which they'll charge you for even though you took it off at checkout, and good luck trying to cancel it. which is why your going to have to use a throwaway prepaid card.
if this server takes 6 months to get it together maybe it'll go on sale legit somewhere in that time, it's old as fuck i can't imagine many people just now buying it for $30. they've gotta drop the price eventually.

Steam I understand but the $1US baffles me.

Because that's what we need either way. We need our own server of our own design with our own specs so we're not at the mercy of some faggot who's going to steal our town over hurt feels.
>>14215647
>>14216411
One thing people have to keep in mind with a pirate server is that the last time we did that, the server crashed over a bug nobody could fix. If it's a pirate server we want, that's perfectly fine, but everyone needs to understand what is at risk if we do so and what happened last time should the problem crop up again. An official server does not carry the risk of a KO like a pirate server does and did.

Awesome, they used the same lingo-words I used to describe how to make a DM game, tool sets. I think this game could have potential if designed correctly, it would be niche for sure, but a quality game, gameplay and social experience is all dependent on the guy who puts in the most work the DM to make it enjoyable. It makes me want to say its a game for people who admire meritocracy, or a collective leader. I know it sounds weird but that's the kind of people that may gravitate to this genre. By giving someone authority over your game progression, you really do have a new kind of "creative" freedom that current games don't have, which are bogged down by a sloppy world-story and setting. This new game just needs a good, quick map-structure-NPC-item table tool kit, and you can have any setting.

I'm curious which server crashed specifically because it was a pirate server? The only one I'm aware of had a spell aura that was fixed within 48 hours. It also had nothing to do with being a pirated client. As far as I can remember there hasn't been a single issue due to the pirated server/client files. So unless you know for a fact that the single line of code that ignores steam verification is the cause for things going wrong then your actual issue is that Rolf can't code for shit.

From what I've over the course of these past two threads is that some mob that the admin spawned dropped and item that was enchanted with some spell that didn't actually exist.
How someone found that out and wasn't able to fix it is beyond me.
I'm also pretty sure admins can take screenshots of servers since that's what that russian server was able to do, so again, why that course of action wasn't taken is questionable.

4)Add blur if needed (gonna need it most likely)

All in all it wasn't a bad time, although I forgot how quick you can lose track of time (meant to screw around for an hour, lost three) in Wurm, and now I'm kind of excited to play with you fags again. I'll agree it definitely seemed like one big hugfest.Although it'll definitely have to wait until school is out for me, I bit off more than I could chew this semester, so I'm going to see if I can't dial it back a shitload next time.

I am also (one of the) old serverfag, the guy who wants to do dungeons is a different guy who afaik has never admin'd before. If I hosted I totally wouldn't mind other people wanting to do dungeon content but they'd basically have to be admins to do it, so you'd have to really trust whoever it is. I don't plan on hosting anyway though so that's up to whoever does it
>>14231330
>have we found out how technically draining the serb would be for the hostfag? I was wondering how large a population we could have
Realistically you likely won't pass 80 concurrent players, if you don't make it pirate-friendly even fewer. However adding extra players usually barely even registers as a blip in terms of Wurm server performance funnily enough, so this doesn't matter. Even a server hosted on someone's PC could probably support 200 players in principle. The real major performance draws are the size of the map, total number of creatures, and whether any modifications you make cause the server to shit itself with lag.
Brohan was running on a dedicated server with an AMD Opteron 4122@2.2GHz, 16GB RAM, and a 2TB hard drive. (Kimsufi's KS-3A offer, price now is 27 bucks a month) The machine was more than capable of running the Wurm server as well as other servers at the same time. Ultimately you will probably encounter more instances of lag from Java, garbage collection, memory leaks, client-side problems, latency, and regular batch operations than you will from actual hardware limitations. In other words, you don't need high-end hardware, but I wouldn't recommend using your personal computer either, and restarting the server regularly is a MUST or otherwise the server will just grind to an unplayable halt and eventually kill itself in agony due to Rolfcode and Java.
