    [h=3]Version Update 14.1 Sneak Peek[/h] Since the upcoming Version Update and Planet Partner release has been postponed, we thought our participants might appreciate an early peek at some of the new features that Version Update 14.1 will bring.

    A new Quest Tracker interface will be implemented which, as the name suggests, makes tracking currently active quests a breeze.

    Another nice new feature is that the item information panel now displays the actual level of protection offered by unlimited armor parts which are below maximum TT value.

    A few of the other features you can look forward to in Version Update 14.1 include:
    • Lower global thresholds for low-level creatures.
    • Global messages when special rare items are looted.
    • Introduction of planet-specific TEN Edition weapons.

    Please note that the features mentioned above are a small sample of what's to come, and that there are many other features and improvements included in Version Update 14.1. And of course there is a boatload of exciting new Planet Partner content to be released as well.

    what exactly does this mean "Lower global thresholds for low-level creatures."?

    It means that you can now receive a global loot message and some swirliest on loot below 50PED for select mobs.
    This is the system I talked about when I said with the upcoming update it will be simpler to host events for new players. This option can only be set on mobs with 500 or less HP and the minimum it can be set to is 10PED.

    Regards,

    Chris

    Look smaller globals for mobs HP500 or less is a good idea to keep new players encouraged. It may not spam the global chat. Looking promising VU. I hope to see some major fixes to the clothing bugs, textures not rendering properly and some armour textures.

    Looks like March 12, if MA can get everything together... I think the two week delay is because it's a combined PP and platform update, so there area a lot of different items to coordinate and debug.
