The following updates will be live on 10/27/2013

Origin Realm

• Squids now drop raw fish. You will also see them re-spawning now (low percentage).

• Villagers will begin to spawn again. We suggest that you begin to breed them and collect their eggs. It is highly likely that Villager spawning will again be removed in future updates. Trading with villagers is still disabled.

• The drop rate of mobs wearing gold and iron armour is being fixed. We ask that you report any considerable changes in the normal spawn rate.

• The cost of storing pearls will not stay at 3 ingots per pearl for much longer, keep this in mind and save your gold.

• Until the Dominion growth is fixed I will be setting the default radius for Dominion to a 35 block radius. This is ONLY a temp solution and WE WILL give you enough notice once the problem is fixed and we revert back to normal settings.

  • Each upgrade now costs 10d (except wheat leach which costs 1d).
  • Upgrades each take three days to mature.
  • Only one upgrade can be researched at a time.

• The /help option is not working atm. We are working on fixing it.

• We are still looking for users to act as player guides in the New Help Channel (/ch join help).

Dream Realm

• Dream Realm is meant to be a place where the rules are undefined and it feels like anything can happen.
• We are looking for ideas for the Dream Realm. If you have any ideas on how to better shape or change this realm then please chime.

Hardcore Realm (HCR)

• The map is live and running if you wish to test this new map contact jpmiii or ROM in game.

• We are setting up a sub-domain that links you to HCR. Please bookmark: HCR.CivRealms.com so that when it goes live you can see it.

• I have been testing it, its hard. I am down to one life. :)

Related Community Projects

• A new community website is underdevelopment by Craytor, Antreus and Personisreal It will be a hub for CivRealms where users and members can get perks, donate, vote and meet each other.

• Art Contest: We are looking for a birds eye view of your favourite cities. We ask that you use shaders mod to do this. The winners will be given a share of CivCredits and their work will be displayed on the backdrop of our splash page and website.

• CivCredit is shaping up to be a great tool for trade and finance on any gaming platform. It now uses a Bit Coin Standard for its currency model, one credit is equal to one bit coin. Soon we will make it so that you can trade smaller credits amounts like .00001 of a credit. Once this is done we will be releasing a tutorial on how to set up companies and player clearing houses and banks in game.

If you like to code and would like to help us develop this player directed gaming community then please drop us a note on mod mail. You will be working directly with Psygate and jpmiii and the other members of the player dev team like Antreus and RKWildcard.

As always your feed back is most welcome so if you totally hate and idea or want to sing it's praises feel free to chime in.
