| + | ## 12/28/23: [Client Patch 28122023 #2](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3999654-nice-ro-client-patch) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - FIXED: No music or wrong music (Main Menu Theme) was playing in some of the game locations: Hugel, Hugel surroundings, Training Grounds. I had to update some data files with newer versions again, but also had to add the missing BGM files from 93 to 113, so this patch is heavier than the previous one. |
| + | - FIXED: Some of the game locations were showing Unknown Area when using /where command: Hugel, Hugel surroundings, Training Grounds. |
| + | - Replaced "Gypsy" class mentions with "Diva" everywhere in the English translation files. This change also applies to Dancer's "Gypsy's Kiss" skill, which is now "Diva's Kiss". Still have to look through the server scripts to make the same changes, but it's coming in the next server update. |

| + | ## 12/26/23: [Status Notes #5](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3985196-nice-ro-status-notes) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - Brought back player skull items that drop when players die (now that they are recognizable by the client with the patch installed). |
| + | - Removed Gremlin and Rotar Zairo mobs from airships to make air travel more accessible to lower level players. |
| + | - Added permissions to save portals for some of the locations I missed last time: Payon's Archer Village, Yuno, Lighthalzen, Einbech, Einbroch. |

| + | ## 12/26/23: [Client Patch 25122023 #1](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3980351-nice-ro-client-patch) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - FIXED: Most of the Unknown Items, if not all, should be fixed with this patch. Turns out, the English translation files I've been using for the client were lacking a lot of item descriptions, but thanks to this Ragnarok Online Translation Project I could replace those files with the newer ones. The earliest translation files I used in this patch were meant for 2012 clients though (ours is from 2006), so if there are any inconsistencies in the item descriptions — please let me know! |
| + | - FIXED: Thanks to the same Ragnarok Online Translation Project we now have properly translated Tips Of The Day! They will be showing up in a dedicated window every time you will load into the game (you can turn them off). |
| + | - Replaced the E-mail Address mentions with Account Recovery Word in pop-ups when deleting a character. |
| + | |
| + | ## 12/24/23: [Status Notes #4](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3967145-nice-ro-status-notes) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - Kafra Storage is FREE to use now. They took a 40z fee before, but even this was really inconvenient if you constantly forgot to put stuff in or out and had to open the storage several times in a row, especially for new characters with no money. |
| + | - A pet owner should now receive additional EXP for their pets doing damage on mobs. |
| + | - You can now rename your pets more than one time. I don't know how it works, we'll need to test it later. |
| + | - Acolyte class characters can now save their portals in all Field Locations. No saving portals in dungeons, sorry. Gotta do it the hard way 💀 |
| + | - Removed the @party command for party creation to not confuse the players. Please only use /organize party_name to create parties — this way you can adjust Exp Share and Item Share parameters properly. |
| + | |
| + | ## 12/20/23: [Status Notes #3](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3930009-nice-ro-status-notes) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - All party members now receive the same 100% amount of base and job exp from killed mobs if exp share is set to Each Share in the party settings. |
| + | - Exp share is now allowed between party members of any base level. Go on and help your friends breeze through the novice stage if you want :) |
| + | - Added: New NPC in Prontera to reset your skill points and / or stat points (you'll need to rejoin the game right away to see the changes). If you feel like you need to readjust your current stats — feel free to talk to Reset Girl in Prontera. |
| + | |
| + | **Known Issues** |
| + | - We started figuring out some of the Unknown Item identities. For some reason right now the client can't identify Oranges and Strawberries (among many other "unknown items"), which is weird, because I totally remember these items from when I was playing the game back in 2006. Hope this won't be a big issue for the players, because I'm still not sure how to approach this problem. |

| + | ## 12/19/23: [Status Notes #2](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3912021-nice-ro-status-notes) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - I've fixed Prontera!! It's now walkable and both West Gate and South Gate warps are functional! Yay! Turned out there was an old map cache on the server side, and I had to rebuild it from the client data file. |
| + | - New Xmas / New Year quest! I think you should look for a guy in Prontera to get more info about it. |
| + | - It's snowing in every town now! Hope it will create holiday atmosphere for you, at least a little :) |
| + | - Deactivated the "`player_character_name`'s Unknown Item" drop (these should have been players' skulls, lol). Hopefully, I'll bring it back later! |
| + | |
| + | ## 12/18/23: [Status Notes #1](https://cohost.org/niceRO/post/3905919-nice-ro-status-notes) |
| + | **New Features and Fixes** |
| + | - Fixed: Not being able to log into the game because the password is too long. Turned out something is messing with input fields on the client, and if your password / username was longer than 16 characters, it would be truncated and would show you a Wrong Password / Username error. I've fixed it by changing the maximum username / password length on the registration page from 24 characters to 16. (Huge thanks to @araly for letting me know about this issue) |
| + | - Added: `@autoloot`, `@autotrade`, `@die` commands for every player to use. Please don't forget that you can check these very helpful commands available to you by typing `@commands` in the main chat window. |
| + | - Activated: The official (?) Christmas event from 2006! Go get yourself a Santa Hat from Santa Porings, or hunt Antonio and help Santa Claus in Lutie or whatever (I still haven't started that quest and I don't remember what it was hahaha). There is also some other Xmas event script that I've found in my custom scripts folder that I want to activate later (maybe even later today, we'll see). |
| + | - Changed: Kafra Teleport Service fees to 100z between most of the major towns: Prontera, Izlude, Morroc, Geffen, Alberta, Payon (sorry, no fee reduction for Aldebaran, or towns in the Republic of Schwarzwald, because I want to preserve the mystery surrounding these areas). 1000+z to teleport between main towns where you get your first class is just not doable for an empty server with no economy or priests that you could ask for a free warp. -___- |
| + | |
| + | **Known Issues** |
| + | - The saddest one at the moment: Prontera is a mess. The South Gate and The East Gate warps are not working (you'll have to use Kafra teleport to Izlude if you want to go there) and there are collision errors here and there. I will try to look at the .gat file for this map (going to be my first time doing map tinkering lol), but I'm still not sure if I can fix it from there, and even if I fix it this way — y'all will need to update the client, and I'm not yet ready to work on an auto-patcher program. Wish me luck... X___X |
| + | - My game client comes with the music turned off, lmao. Sorry about this! The music in RO is one of the greatest video game soundtracks, in my opinion, and it makes at least 30% of the whole game's atmosphere, so please don't forget to give it a try by clicking option menu and switching it on. (I'll reupload the client, I promise, lol) |
| + | - There are A LOT of Unknown Items in the game, and I'll have to fix them all eventually. Right now I know that Condors drop one pretty frequently, there is an Ingredient Seller in Morroc that sells only unknown items, and the Morroc bartender's cocktails are also unknown items. Please let me know if you find more unknown items 🙏 |
| + | - I would honestly love to rewrite at least the most problematic parts of the NPC scripts, but it's a really big task, so I need to figure out how to handle it first. |
