CreataChar v2: New Client Edition
Posted by: Nagnag -- 8:04 PM EST

Thanks to all those that PM'd me about this. Within the next week or two I may be either inviting more VIP viewers, or just releasing the entire thing, depending on a lot of things out of my control. I hope all that recieved the link to this enjoyed it! BE ON THE LOOK OUT, I might do something CRAZY again! So have a NexusForums account made and ready incase I need another 100 PMs!

Event on the way?
Posted by: Vini -- 4:24 PM EST

Addding more spice to the community expectations for the upcoming features for Nexus TK, now it was Marama's turn to give some hints about what is to come soon to the Kingdom of Winds lands. From the way it seems there has an event being worked to be released short after the new client is released.

Here is a copy of her post in community board, the original one can be found by the subject of Events:

  • Kru Int. is and has been working hard on the new client that will be coming out soon because this requires so much time this is a major reason for not having an event, but we have also been working on an event but it needs some programming before it is ready to go to the community this event will have maps, quests and some old names you haven't seen in awhile. So please be patient the new client is major priority at the moment.

    Marama


    "...some old names you haven't seen in awhile". Seems some past event people are preparing their hands to show up back in our community. Should this be considered a new threat to the community's peace only time will tell.

    As Marama said herself, for now the expectations should turn around the "Much anticipated Nexus version 6.5 coming soon" , mentioned in Kru Inc. top bar of Nexus official page.

    Special thanks to Pingu for posting about this news on Nexus Forums.

    "Free Engrave" scam.
    Posted by: Nagnag -- 5:07 PM EST

    For the past week or so there have been many victims to this "free engrave" scam. Some fell for it, and others pulled back at the last minute once they realized the person was not a Merchant. The scam goes as follows:

    The person claiming to be a Merchant claims they are in a rush, and to have the items ready. Prior to this, their have either a friend sage or yell saying they are giving away cheap or free engraves. Either way, they pay off with the scammed items.

    DO NOT fall for this scam. The most recent scammer has been named after the Merchant Elder AphroditeXO --- only switched the "XO" around and so the scammer's name is AphroditeOX. Be aware and KNOW WHO THE PEOPLE ARE 100% BEFORE EXCHANGING! When exchanging, also note that next to their name is their Path. SUBPATHS ARE SHOWN... therefore, if they say "Well Merchant is a subpath of Rogue, that's why it says Rogue"... no. It would say Merchant _______. So everyone be very weary over the next few weeks while Jusice and Kru (hopefully) put down the hammer of justice on these morons.

    Koguryo Royal Blessing Ceremony
    Posted by: Vini -- 11:14 PM EST

    Last Saturday evening was a memorable moment for the Kingdom of Koguryo. Prince M'hul, Minister Starrbrite and her Koguryo Ministry have hosted a ceremony at the Royal Coliseum at the Palace to honor and recognize those blessed as Koguryo Defenders and those praised for deeds of citizenship.

    A few hard working people from clans and sub-paths have been brought forward to receive the honor to pledge to defend Koguryo towards Prince M'hul and were given the marking and the dye typical to the defenders. The Primogens of all the kogurian clans thanked each of these members for their dedication to their clans with this noble indication.

    The clans members blessed were:
    Sun Moon sect - Cunning Erruk and Sammasati xuans
    Enigma - Essence FoxyHealer and Force Fearn
    Bear - Sulsa-Do Nightwatcher and Samaruhi Lumina
    Destiny - Gypsy Tsumoro and Force Zanadon
    Oceana - Chongun SaltyHorse and Adventurer FenixKiroz
    Tiger - Essence Saera and Cunning Linuxkiddy


    Primogen Gabe of Destiny clan calls Tsumoro and Zanadon to receive the blessing from the Prince

    The elders of Koguryo sub-paths were also given the opportunity to indicate one of their members to receive such honor. The sub-path members blessed were: Chongun Karina, Spy Spades and Merchant NeoPandora. The Diviner and Monk paths have not indicated anyone this time.


    Elder AphroditeXO of Merchants call NeoPandora to be blessed

    Minister Starrbrite also took this opportunity to honor a few members of her ministry by indicating them to be blessed as well by the Prince. These hard working members were: Muse Gilley, Barrage BotanChan and the Ambassador of Koguryo Diarmuid LunaStarling.


    Lady Gilley from the Ministry stands in front of the Prince to receive the blessing


    Ambassador LunaStarling also received the blessing as she should have been long ago as she's Ambassador

    After the rounds of blessings given from Prince M'hul, Dame Starrbrite has given the Royal Ministry Mark to those who were Praised for Deeds of Citizenship. The noble citizens who finished the quest and were recognized that evening were: Swift Azasimus, Artisan Toucan, Chongun Deimos, Sonbae Deamian Deamian, Diviner Krylon and Sam San (P) MrPoetPo.

    Congratulations to all those blessed and recognized for their deeds that evening and a special thanks to Starrbrite who has informed about all those honored at the ceremony.

    New Client Alpha Test is open!
    Posted by: Vini -- 7:28 PM EST

    As posted by WM on the Nexus Official website, the Alpha testing fase of the New client is open. A few players have been invited to test the new client and figure the bugs. The names of the chosen ones are probably confidential so we cannot bring any screenshot of the testing fases to the Nexus Atlas fans.

    Here's a copy of the post from WM on the news page of NexusTK official site:
  • Greetings,

    I know everyone has been anxiously awaiting news of the new client update. Now we finally have something to report. After many weeks of hard work and internal testing, the Nexus client has entered its first stage of testing! The update is getting closer and closer to completion. With the help of the alpha test we'll be able to fix all of the remaining issues. We expect the alpha test will last for 2-3 weeks, after which will be an open beta test, where everybody can get an early glimpse at the new client.

    Many people have been invited to participate in the alpha test of the new Nexus client. Some old and wise players, former beta testers, and some lucky names we picked from a hat! Check your Nmail to see if you've been invited.

    If you haven't received an invitation yet, just wait! We'll be issuing more invitations over the next few weeks as we ramp up to the open beta.

    Sincerely,
    WM
    Nexus Update Project Lead


    We're excited to see this new client coming and hopefully it will bring great joy to all Nexus community members.

    The "Push" spell will now give the victim a message that they've been pushed, and by whom.
    Added new arrows types to Rangers' Carve Arrow skill.
    It is now possible to obtain a new Staff of the Elements if you have lost your first. Visit the merchant who helped you to create your first one to find out how.

    Map Updates:
    Map update for Dharma clan.
    Map update for Phoenix clan.
    Map update for Elendhirin clan.

    Minor Fixes:
