A Land Far Away

Allright, planning ahead for the next hak update here. Timeline won't be fleshed out until I get a better idea of what all is going in. First order of business will be cleaning up / fixing leftover bugs from the 1.74/1.75 haks (1.75 was an 11th hour additional mini-update to fix a few critical problems with the 1.74 haks).

Listing of items for inclusion in the next (1.76) version of the haks:

• Leftover "male placeholder" models to enable toolset viewing of a few more female outfit/accessories (the asymmetric dresses primarily)
• ACR/ALFA loading screen tips updated

Other potential adds, if they are ready in time:

• Alternate slung bow VFX, activatable (needs model rotation by gribo and SEF adjustment by Keryn, plus some minor script edits by me
• Equippable Warpipes model and animations (gribo's project in progress)
• Intellect Devourer model (linked by Curmudgeon in Custom Content)
• Writable books GUI (needs considerable scripting/testing, but I'd like to get some form of it in sooner rather than later)

We're also looking at potential improvements to portalling, possibly including adoption of a seamless portalling function (connects you to the new server without leaving and having to relog into the destination server). Additionally, we're looking at how we can handle the vault sharing more effectively, and without the prerequisite of a Linux host running a virtual Windows-based machine in order to host a Live server. Hialmar and Zebranky are primarily driving this project.

Will update with more potential projects as I go along.

Adding to the list:

• DM serverID update onLogin: migrate code into acr_pps_i.nss

Setting up DM-spawned creatures to default to Flocking Off? Or perhaps easier, adding a Flocking On/Off parameter for Spawn Points?
