Release Notes for 1600.20091102.0 - 11/04/09

I'd like to ask for /em walkposes, so that we can have Pimp Walks, George Jefferson Walks, tiptoes (preferably accompanied by the sound of pizzicatto violins) and the ever-popular wageslave waddle.

Updated earlier post upthread with issues/bugs.

When we get a pyramid-filled zone based on the ancient pharaohs, I'm gonna walk like an Egyptian!

It appears if you keep walk on while changing costumes from Male/Female/Huge, the walking animations sticks with what it was before you switched costumes, so you can have hip swinging huge characters, or Female chars doing the huge walk.

Almost everyone was showing 3.09 walking speed on test, but we had two people reporting 1.4 and 1.8 walking speed. Both were showing no debuffs in combat attributes or buff bar. Both were bot MMs, but different secondaries. But none of us were able to reproduce it, even by logging on with other bot MMs or making new ones. Just those two people were walking slower, for no reason that we could discern. They both sent bug reports.

I also noticed that while in Walk, instead of walking backward (and facing the same direction), you now turn around and start walking toward the camera (or the opposite direction of whatever foward is for you, if the camera isn't at default). Is this WAI? Strafing still works the same.

Bugs with newest patch and BS/Shield

1) Walking: can only have shield or sword active when walking. Really want to walk around with both out.

2) Walking: can't draw weapons of any type when walking, yet can on other AT's.

3) Walking: drawn weapons clip into the leg a bit. I'd rather keep the ability to have a weapon out if this can't be fixed as other things clip in the game that can't be fixed.

3) Hovering: Hover/Fly stutter/spazz (as mentioned)

4) Hovering: Hover + headsplitter = air sup animation. I can't get any other animation but this.

5) Hovering: Nemesis/Blackwand Staff plays the hand thrust forward to blast animation which holds the staff sideways and looks weird.

don't have whirling sword on this build so can't test the wonder woman spin while hovering/flying.


The walks looks really great!.

I can't believe this. I just patched to check it out, and it's a colossal difference (for me, at least). There's kind of that same giddy sense I felt when I used Fly for the first time. Whole city looks different, I guess, when you're not rushing through it.

Walk.

Looks just GREAT!!!

=_= Screw any minor bugs, send it to live NAOW.

Most of my characters were able to force a weapon draw while Walking. Specifically tested: patron mace powers, veteran Nemesis Staff and Ghost Killing Axe (or whatever it's called) on a male robotics mastermind; dual blades and Blackwand on a female dual blades stalker; claws and Blackwand on a huge claws brute.

However, once I added devil wings to the huge claws brute, it could no longer draw weapons while Walk was active. (Weapons already drawn when Walk was active stayed active until he or it stopped moving forward.)

Also, both the dual blades and the blackwand clipped horribly with the female stalker's legs.

Walks look great! Female walk looks pleasingly feminine, male walk looks male. Nice suprise out of the blue.

walking.. its unexpected but very nice.
