Wurm Unlimited General

Quig here. I'll be on eventually.

This isn't going to be a case where if we regain those 24 levels, the serb's going to shit itself again, right?

Learn to deepest lore.

Aydan here. I will be on in a couple days

its 24 hours

nope since that wasn't the issue in the first place

No shit? Nice. Just in time for the weekend. Did that problem get unproblemed permanently?

Just let it die.

just like take your own advice my man

it's gucci my mucci

...

Gamefile/WurmLauncher/PlayerFiles/config/default/autorun.txt Bottom of the .txt put irc irc.Foonetic.net ircsay /join #WurmInfinity(edited)

Skip the edited part. That was my shitty copy-pasting from the Discord.

Let's try that one more time.

Gotcha m8.

How

Quick question: Does Wurm have any decent PVE?

Add ircsay /Join #WurmInfinity to make it join the channel automatically, use proper capitalization to make it behave.

The skill rollback has really destroyed any of my motivation to play.

Good, leave - whiners not needed

So what was all that shit about dropping the server?

Yeah, I'll see you guys on the next server or something.

...

dude, it's not by much, it's a day maybe less, get some mods to help the grind abit and put on some music

Server dropped itself over a spell error. Everything's fixed at the expense of a few levels.

Is whoever's running this going to make dungeons?

Dungeons are already made, just gotta find them.

I've seen it compared to Runescape.

Backup complete, server is online again.

No, I meant the shit on the chat the day the characters got fucked.
Wasn't the host dropping the game to host WoW?

Does he pull that shit every time something bad happens and you have to wait a few days for him to cool off or something?

don't twist shit like that man, it's really unhealthy

I'm glad its back but the people I played with probably aren't coming back and shit is going to be lonely. At this point I'm up for buying the game and raiding some normalfag server if the population doesn't pick up after a week or two

we've hit hard times but they're gunna make it, almost all the regulars are back I've yet to see waylar though

Why not remove the faith gain cooldown if we have fast meditation?

Since there's no registration in this game, does that mean you can just log in as someone else or is there a mechanic to keep track of who's who?

Its based off steam ID, which cracked clients get one generated.

Trying to log into a character without the same steam ID gives a "wrong password" prompt when logging into a server with the options to retry or quit.

If i delete the game and reinstall it will i lose the Steam ID, or can it be lost in a way?

If you are talking about the cracked client, the steam ID is stored in the SmartSteamEmu folder in a text file called "steam_id". As long as you keep that series of numbers you can play those characters on any cracked install of Wurm Unlimited. If you lose that number I think the server owner has the steam ID bound to all accounts and they can help you out with recovery if they want.

Its a good idea to back that text file up so you can just drop it in the folder if anything happens to your wurm folder.

Good to know, thanks.

No I don't, I didn't feel like hosting wurm anymore tbh. I could not find much enjoyment with only being allowed to edit the bytecodes for server modifications.
I felt like there was hardly any room for improving the gameplay with that half-assed java sourcode.
You are correct that I'm working on a private TBC server, since I'm a codefag I find it a more interesting project to spend my time on.

Have a bump for good times nigger.

pls consider coding for the ss13 Holla Forums serb

So who is hosting? Tren?

Sweet, just joined "Jenn-Kellon".
Which way is Brocelona?

Thanks fam, been a while, a long while, since I've played.
Is NKDragonov still a fag?

You can never un-catch AIDs.

Just arrived at the Altar of Three, now becides a strange urge to push it into the ocean :^)
I'm wondering what God I should follow?

Vynora, obviously.

Magranon or bust

Fan-fucking-tastic.
Thanks lads.

Gonna go with the waifu.

You've chosen wisely.

...

Just remembered my pro-strat for grinding this game.
murgee.com/auto-clicker/

Time to spamfuck pray for no reason

Thanks, now gib me your boobehs.

Pro tips here.

Mine soon and mine often. Mining raises your strength, which basically hardens your character the fuck up and makes him not a pussy. Your hands will be rough and calloused. You'll have superhuman old-world strength like Rolf from Ed, Edd and Eddy and you'll kick people's asses in combat. You don't wanna by some soft faggot that can only polish shafts all day do you?

Besides that, the quality of iron you can mine effectively caps the ql on weapons and tools that you can make, basically cucking every other endeavor you might want to do.

it's also one of the easiest things to grind with autoit/autoclicker

Or you could join a village and let someone else do it for you while you grind thatching or puppeteering.

Stay soft kid.

You on? I'm form a JK village, would be neat to have a priest. Look for Wendingo

How do i grind weaponsmithing and it's sub skills quickly? Do i just craft shitty carving knives and small axes then improve them and repeat that cycle of eternal suffering?

I've been making arrowheads recently. Ground up my weapons heads pretty quick to 20.

I'm at 16 ws, 20 blade smithing and 21weapon head smithing right now.

Get about 1000, 500 with sleep bonus pounds of iron lumps and combine them into 70ish size lumps. Get a BSB set up near your forge with at least 50 logs in it. Have two or three pottery bowls in your inventory. Craft arrowheads, hunting arrowheads. Thousands of them. As your inventory fills with arrowheads drag them into the bowls between clicking 'craft' and then into the BSB once the bowls are full. The goal is to never dip below 1/8 stamina but always be doing something, so as you see that your stamina will need to recharge reach for a log to fuel the forge or shuffle some arrowheads around.

This is the fastest way I've found to grind WS.

And holds the advantage of getting loads of arrow heads for anyone's needed arrows.
Always good to train up some archery, after all, and hunting arrows are more accurate.

Jesus. What's your ws level right now? I'm curious, also, what about leveling blade smithing and weapon head smithing?

50, I did it in one sitting. Got my weapon heads to 73 or so in that one stint too. Don't bother with blade smithing, it only factors into the fabrication of the items themselves, not imping IIRC.

Fucking wew lad. Will try that tomorrow. Why shouldn't i bother with blade smithing though?

Would you rather be forced to make two or three attempts making a two handed sword or mine 9000 pounds of iron instead of 1000? The blades smithing method is carving knives/butcher knives and it uses so much more iron per item that it's much slower.

G-Good point. Also it was because i wanted to be able to craft swords.

You will be able to craft swords just fine.

Waylar here, i fucked up the game files, give my deed to klaur or whoever that still plays, gg no re.

I did drama in highscool

Cant stop this meem

Get online if you want me to fix it.

[00:44:08] oh well if i am not needed then i will go to bed, if he does show up, tell him to send his current fake steam id to icezeppo on discord and i will update his main char to the new steam id

[00:44:21] located in the steam emu folder ofcourse

maybe some other day im too depressed today

is the download in the op the updated version?

quit being a sadboy no one likes a sadboy

bladesmithing only affects the QL/success chance of crafting the bladed component itself, it's useless
weapon heads skill (from making arrows) is marginally more useful but still pretty useless
your one goal is raising the weaponsmithing skill itself, which is the sole decider in how high you can imp any weapon or bladed tool

Oh i didn't know what, does that also apply to armor smithing? If i want to start grinding armor smithing, what should i make?

wew lad

Eat it and become a rare yourself

...

Thinking about coming back but not sure. This game is such a time-vampire.

Convince me / bully me out of it.

Come back here so i can share roaches with you.

It ain't fuckin rocket-science, lads.
Wait, is it now? What with the cooking update and whatnot?

Stop namefagging and come back here and i'll let you have my old 1QL sword.

dunno, i don't cook, you see the guy above eating roaches? he cooks.

I'm already there, wondering which kingdom to join to play with the lads from broschwitz.

JK, come back Awolf, we miss you.

I'm there, was OMW to the village when Banana told me if Wendy was there I could just teleport, lel.

What do i make to grind blacksmithing? Needles? Should i also bother imping them? Also can someone answer

Imping armor depends on the skill for that armor, not general armorsmithing.

...

Found my first chest out there, pretty nice!

Fuck. That's gonna be costly to grind, plate smithing that is. What about blacksmithing?

Noice shit nigga.

Where do you find that sort of thing?

Fucking great

they just pop up randomly in the world, appearing as a big glowing chest

Quig here. I may be needing to either go on hiatus or severely cut down on my weekly hours.

it's fine man, just cut back on the crops and things should be o.k

I'll get on in a bit today to make weps, maybe. Probly have to update since I didn't play when that update messed the serb up.

We need to consolidate.

set a time to be on and give orders to workers. That's how you get people to play.

No
I just want people to chill with. Don't restrict the masses. If everyone wants to mine, that's their prerogative. Eventually, they'll starve, so they'll be forced to branch out.

Not a suitable path if you wish to secure the existence of your Heimatland for another 2 months laddie.

WHER ARE YOU?

2 huge axes and 1 longsword imp to best

people in crudeman's play in doses abit a day otherwise people will burn out

So when are we gonna all just go into the same kingdom and build the next Broschwitz together? We all miss Broschwitz, don't we?

we don't have anyone to go up against as is, so if everyone becomes one kingdom it'll just come down to fucking autistic grinding

Still, we could at least limit it to two teams.

Its 2 teams right now, JK kingdom, MR, and a small HOTS.

still, you could stop being socially needy

Good to see new JK people playing, gives me a reason to come back and help them with their journey.

What, and get my shit stole 24/7? No thanks.

Some of us are fit for individualism. Other types are collectivist, to each their own I guess…

I know the debate that Anarcho Capitalism is whether it can work, and I don't know the answer nor do I request it.
One thing however I can say, it wouldn't work in the medieval age.

I don't actually want to debate political system I'm just banting. For the love of god please don't start.

I agree with you, I don't want my grimy cheese making medieval game to turn into a political debate over which government is better.

nah everyone goes for aesthetics and you've not got any

Best form of government for the game is anarcho-communism. No locks, only friends

Small community, same kingdom race, work for the neighboor/volk, and specialize. Also no currency! You need something, we whip out the resources and make it happen. High trust society, no normalfags/Normans allowed in.

Also, we just had a strange foreigner pass through! A tall dorf on a boat, very strange.

Pretty much. I long dearly for the Brosmuth days of anarchic construction, pillaging what was needed from nearby, and happily working together.
We did have one jew, though, bent on destroying our wonderful community.
Started up an inn, and tried to kike us for use of his beds.

...

anarcho-communism only works on ==PVE== only servers, otherwhere else it's trash and you should consider killing your self

So you know our address, why don't ya come on over and have some tea with us, we are armed so expect no pillaging.

It works fine on PVP assuming you have guard towers, and are part of one kingdom.

...

rude

>anarcho-communism only works

Communism totally works and is in fact the standard in most video games.
Reason being, most folk play for fun, not accomplishing anything, or trying to survive.
When we no longer need, communism will work.

Well, until we get assholes like

no it's also got a purpose, lets say there's afew other kingdoms on the serb with slightly less or slightly more active players on this anarcho-communism kingdom, there's a cold war going on since there's no real opening for anyone to actually get an edge up, this is where what I said comes into play, in any game where a player can keep on coming back the only way to prevent this is by crushing your enemies morale, thus killing them from the inside is actually the only real form of warfare and it isn't an asshole thing, it's a "wining the war" method

By making a bunch of alts, against most server rules.
It's also a pretty gay as fuck way to 'win' a war.
You should crush them in their entirety. March into their homes, steal their cattle, burn their crops, destroy their homes.
Not this gay infiltration trash

in war, a win is a win and so as long as it is a winning strat it will never not be a thing we have to protect our selves aganist

Yeah, but, it's a game. Not a real war. You shouldn't act like a nigger just to "win" a fake war.

you're arguing ideals, which have no real place in the real world

Good thing we aren't talking about the real world, then, innit?

that's also a point, in the real world there is consequence for actions which have lasting effects throughout a persons life, a video game does not thus it's more likely to have "assholes" in it, innit like bruv

Eh, compared to the real world, in my experience, not really.
Besides, like I said, most servers have rules against alts like that. You'd run into problems just the same that way.
Hard to fight a war when your guys are getting banned over alt saboteurs.

personal experience isn't every experience. what server has the moderation to correctly find out who's using a alt in a timely manour? bare in mind my example was for a massive server with lots of players on all the time

or you can just make the small amount of valuable things non-communal, it's not that hard

Man I really wish we coulda seen an Arbeit Macht Bro work camp. Within Broschwitz, have an enclosed area, tall stone wall borders. Before becoming a citizen, you are locked in the camp until you dig 200 dirt quickly unloaded from a wagon, then a wagon picks the dirt up and either repeats or drops off raw material that must be processed.

that's what I'm getting at, take simple measures to not get utterly fucked over easily.

Most servers can take a quick look at IPs. While that isn't too difficult to spoof, it will certainly catch most offenders. Only a rare few are like to skirt by.

Not sure what massive server exists for Wurm. Most seem pretty damn small. Our little group at Brosmuth managed to double the existing population, at least.
We're not looking at many, in this game for certain.

so… do I just kill it?

there's afew not considering online but our server with it's current pop of course isn't much of an issue, that comes when we actually get numbers which if you still have the pve mentality you'll get raped over and over again untill you aren't a person anymore

you can tame it and ride it

sounds gay

unless you've got a hellhorse already, they're the one down from them outside of a zombie scorpion

Guess I'll wait til it dies, cools down and rises again
Have the cracked files been passed around so next incarnation doesn't have 5 threads of non-codefags begging?

I would come over undressed but I assume your guards would pound my boipucci.

the piles need TONS'O'WOOD and the good QL ones

Ok well earlier we got a couple hundred logs, but its low QL sadly. Thing is I remember steel QL can still be as high as the iron QL, but it will have a small chance since charcoal is low QL. We did what we could do.

guess i'll go on a deforestation spree on the weekend

Is 4x the same rate as the old server? The one Brotopia was on or whatever the big city was (on the serb with the turbosperg Whaitea)

Yep, 4x xp gain and 4x faster crafting time, meditation rank up is also 4x times faster, you still need the skill to rank up though.

Oh shit. I thought the old serb was 4x. 4x what it was would make this game not feel so grindy.
Gonna download this tonight I guess.

Backup complete, server is online again.

Its the exact same rates pretty much as broschwitz village's server. It too was 4x rate and 4x action speed. You can still raise whatever fast if you are making the right items and have the material / high QL tool.

(And a few skills have recent higher gains, like mining. Forgot the % increase but its probably like 30-40% more exp, maybe double)

That server actually had higher than 4x rates because they made certain skills level way more quickly with a server mod. It's why people could get 70 fighting skill super easily.

Something is wrong with skillgain for farming. Sometimes I just randomly don't get any XP for any skill for raking several fields. Does that have to do with crop difficulty or something? Seems to be different from crop to crop, not sure though.

And yeah, I got the skill tracker and tab on showing me every increase no matter how small.

I highly suspect that higher difficulty = lower chance of getting skill, but since the RNG in this game is a mess you often get, like, three increases in a row and then nothing for the next 15 fields or so, confusing anyone trying to figure this shit out. The difficulty doesn't seem to affect the amount of skill gained though, just the chance of gaining it at all. Just a theory though.

It's probably higher chance of gaining skill at higher difficulty. Try comparing sugar beets and potatoes, the hardest and easiest.

Sugar beets give basically no skill while potatoes always do. Strawberries also don't like giving skill. So yeah I see a trend hinting at difficulty here.

why

Are there any conflicts between anons going on in the world? Also how long does it take for coal to be made and why can I not throw more logs in the coal piles?

hue @ the names

there's been some conflicts but nothing large scale nor prolonged

pretty comfy tbh

Waylar here, i'll come back in a few weeks, lots of irl shit n' stuff, klaur is in charge for now until i return, keep the deed going

KROGHED, MESSER - FFS SHOW UP!

Anyone got serb files I can use? I want to set something up for my friends, trying to get them into this game.

just have them join this one. If not then they are in the thread

where is everyone?
i went to the white light, got killed, went there again (on foot, without rope), now riding towards black light

What kingdom?

Jenn Kellon kingdom and M-Raven (MR) kingdom have some villages. Ask to join a village, but we need to know what kingdom you are first. I'm okay with you joining our village, if the leader allows it.

do yall niggas do tradin
whats the player count like

It's not that many people playing right now. I usually see 5 people online max, but usually it's about 2-3. So obviously there is no trading going on. We should probably work on properly promoting the game to newlads and focus on growing if we ever want this game to go back to its former glory.

there's alot of people unable to play for various reasons or another so I'd say there's around four or so more people in total not unactive but not active as it were

We're not even allowed to deforest that part and I have no idea how to find the right tree. Should I even bother pursuing the mission?

yeah don't bother tbh, unless it's something close by it's worthless

Remember that old idea of challening Reddit to a war in this game? To give us playing a higher purpose? Why don't we do that now? I think the reason so many oldfags are not motivated enough to play anymore is because there is no point to it. And if defeating Reddits autists is the endgoal I think we would also be able to motivate a lot more newfags, too.

One Holla Forums kingdom, one reddit kingdom and then we duke out our autism in the most autistic game there has ever been.

we were doing that but they never really joined up and with the server dying and then coming back the burn really hit hard tbh

Wew, shit, didn't know you guys actually attempted that.

Maybe it has to be promoted properly or something, I dunno, sounds like you just had sort of bad timing.

we got really unlucky with the codebase literally shitting its self to death because lol java but the host did a job of advertising it everywhere he could, I think it's just that wurm is such a shit game tbh

We'd have to make it more accessable, that's for sure. For example aquiring sleep powder should be more possible. Too much grinding scares away weak minded little reddit fags.

Plus we'd probably have to write a proper newfag guide for the game.

if we're going to be doing all of that, may as well just either code our own game or play something else

Would it be that much work to turn trading into what it was on WRC and write one small guide?

it'd be work with no clear gain

A new dungeon called Obergard has appeared in a snowy area, looks like a tough one, most definitely a group effort, but that means good loot too.
Good luck!

its Mol-Rehan

afaik the time between the old serb dying and the new one starting up again was too long for some people.

More like most people probably just didn't notice, after some time you stop checking the catalog for wurm threads - if they see them, they will do so by random chance. Not much we can do about it.

Backup complete, server is online again.

I keep saying it, but for any chance at attaining Brosmouth levels of population again, there needs to be a longer cooldown after the game dies. Brosmouth -> Broschwitz stayed active for quite a while under very imperfect parameters, and every prior revival has gathered fewer anons and fizzled out quicker, even this latest one, which (I didn't play it) seems to be the best-handled version yet. That's because people only waited a couple of months between incarnations. The time and autism investment to roll a new character and really participate in a ser/v/er is huge, it's not something you can jump in on regularly unless you're a genuine basement-dwelling NEET with a permanent Wurm fixation, which shockingly doesn't seem to be the majority of our anons.
Resist the urge to reboot prematurely again and let everyone forget about Wurm for a year or so, and I think we'll get a grand ol' crowd of anons in on the next ser/v/er.

The problem (at least for me) is the amount of time you have to dedicate even with skill and action speed boosts. Shit, I spent a week straight of playing and got burnt out, by the time I came back it was dead so I just deleted the folder. Now I have a really hard time justifying the download if the same thing is just going to happen, not to mention the tedium of having to rebuild from scratch every time this shit starts up again.

This is why these frequent reboots don't work. Starting from scratch is a big deal, and we've had, what, 3 different servers to start on in the last year? You could return to the same map, like what was done a few times with Broschwitz, but it never has the same magic or newbean appeal when the town's already huge and roles already filled by skilled craftsmen who can pump out whatever you need.
I don't remember exactly how long the initial Brosmouth -> Broschwitz lasted before the burnout became severe, but it was 2-3 months, at least, and that burnout was greatly contributed to by issues with the server being run by normalfag autists (which isn't an issue when we have files and can find a richfag to pave our way). With a proper intermission between incarnations, an user-run server with efforts taken to enhance longevity with generated PvE events/inter-kingdom PvP/recruitment of normalfags to bully could last much longer.
Might it be possible to restrict joining a certain faction by altering files we use for external normalfag recruiting, to have a Holla Forumsvurm-only faction and ensure we can PvP any normalfag who joins?
