We here at Shadowbane Emulator invite everyone to come and celebrate Shadowbane's 7th Anniversary with us. We have decided to open up a public world server for the next 4 days. We anticipate that this event should last from Thursday morning until late Sunday evening. For the duration of this event the entire world will be open for you to explore. Keep in mind however, that all of this is subject to change based on server stability and performance.
Things to keep in mind:
- This is an Alpha release. Functionality in several areas is either not yet implemented or not enabled for this event. Please do not submit any bugs related to specific actions not being enabled.
Bug reports are desired for any of the following areas:
1) Unable to enter world. Please check the forums for any relevant announcements however, before submitting an issue.
2) Client Crashes. Please include coordinates or note worthy buildings.
3) Character creation issues. (Excluding stats not lining up in game)
This event is primarily a stress test of our server architecture. You should be able to explore the world and chat with those you encounter.
Please note that we are still working diligently in the background on our private test server to continue development. There is still much work to be done before the remaining features are ready for general use.
In addition to opening the world servers, we will be wiping all characters data before the event goes live. Accounts will remain unaffected. You will need to recreate all of your characters in order to enter the world.
Some of the developers and admins will be around Friday night to interact with the player base. You'll be able to ask us any questions you may have. We hope to see you all there!
