Server General Update - December 31st, 2024

The Gloomwood server was reset December 31st, 2024 and we are all starting on a new map. This new map is an 8K x 8K map, a bit smaller than before and much easier to navigate. The starter deeds will be located in the corners of the map. The HOTS starter will be in the North West corner of map, the JennKellan will be located at the North East corner of the map, MolRehan will be located in the South East corner of the map, and the Freedom starter will be located in the South West corner of the map. The White light is located on the East coast of the map, center. The Black Light will be located on the West coast of the map, center. The team is working on rebuilding everything and we hope to be back in business soon. If you have any issues, please let us know in Discord or the Global Chat (in game). We really thank you for your dedication to Gloomwood, this place is truly all of ours.

Server General Update - September 30th,2024

Server still going great, seeing a lot of new players joining! We have been having weekend events fighting dragons and giants and is a good way to earn loot, skill, and affinities. We are planning on adding a ton of new mods, including those custom to our Gloomwood server. We updated the rules for the server as well which can be found on the rules page in regards to Drakes / Basilisks. This new rule is You may NOT use a Drake or Basilisk in PVP intentionally. If you raid someones deed riding a drake / basilisk, the victim will be compensated and be equipped with GM equipment and skill boost for a 2 week window to counter attack whomever used the drake / basilisk to them. If you are out in the world and come across an enemy on a drake / basilisk, this is okay as it was not intentional. Drakes and Basilisks cannot be attacked, and so the guards cannot kill them, hence it creates a situation where attacking can be easy for the attacker because of a known issue. If this continues to happen over and over, the ridable drakes mod will be disabled. Please do not use drakes / basilisks in intentional PVP / Raids.

Server General Update - July 1st,2024

We added the UPS to the servre and router, giving us protection with power brownouts, outages, and surges. The UPS will last 72 minutes which should be enough time to give warning and buffer any dirty power.

We added the Combiner mod which allows Woad and Wood to be combined, please report any issues or if you want to add an item to the list.

Server General Update - May 22nd, 2024

We did a server restart on May 21st and got the coffee mod fixed, so that is all good. I removed the playercount and vote mod to see if it helped with the random freeze, but it did not change anything so I will add them back next restart.

The Event Center now has Kingdom Teleports being installed which link established player deeds with kingdom castle which allows players to easily help eachother and this should promote unity and community to keep new players.

A hunting island was setup yesterday and can be accessed from the Event Center. It's a no PVP and no build zone because it is accessed by all kingdoms. The Pit challenge should be opening soon along with the 2nd dungeon which all again can be accessed from the Event Center.

Server General Update - May 19th, 2024

Several new updates on the server recently. I am working on fixing the Coffee Mod with the help of some input from the mod developer, it came down to recipe ID and I don't see it under the dist/ folder. Will add that hopefully next server restart.

I also am going to spin up a 2nd server for testing, mostly focused around the ShippingRoute Mod and BulkTransfer from BSBs and Crates.

The Event center has now functional kingdom merchants, and a GM made dungeon called The Cat Dungeon. You can access this dungeon at the Event Center. Several other dungeons and events are still being worked on and soon will be done.

We came across a player made kingdom issue which was the result of a bugged character. After creating a new character and moving skills over, the player made kingdom worked on a completely different account. PVP also seems to be picking up, with a clash between MR and Freedom territories that was around the MR Boat Mine North Ocean Access.

Server General Update - May 11th, 2024

Our ISP had to do work earlier today so the server was down for most of the morning. We are back up now and while down, we added the furnacefeeder mod that allows players to keep smithing for very long periods of time.
The Event Center is open for business and contains Kingdom Markets where you can buy tools, weapons, goods, and some have enchants. This is still a work in progress and if anyone has any feedback, please let us know.

Server General Update - April 22nd, 2024

Server restart every Wednesday between 8am and 2pm EST. Also scheduled server downtime is planed for April 26th most of the day, although I only need a few hours I think. I am upgrading my network infrastructure to support faster speeds and updating the internet router.
The world of Gloomwood is really growing. Every day we see new faces and the community is starting to have a personality. We are planning on adding more mods this week to remove fatique, and add new features to storage.

Server General Update - April 4th, 2024

More mods were added, check mods to see which are supported in gameprogress.

Server General Update - March 26th, 2024

New 16K x 16K map, reset March 2024. The game server has been updated to support a more powerful XEON processor with 32GB of memory so there should be a major improvement on performance. The internet speed was also increased for download/upload on the server in the past month.

There have been some new additions to the map and some are still in progress.
