There is still alot of bugs with Alcugs and no new work doing to correct those bugs. Last I checked the Alcugs shard software had been pulled and some of the forums at Alcugs were locked. Shoot just now I tried to go over there and got a 404 error. It couldn't find the forum.

Alcugs I would say is dead and you can nolonger get the shard software. I don't have the shard software so that means Alcugs for me is out.

Hmm... correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe AdamJohnso has a mirror to the Alcugs patch, if anyone is still interested.

actually there was a topic posted over at COBBS about this, and it turns out Almlys' free url stopped working, but the sourceforge address still works.

(and for an age like Galamay, which is (still) sdl-free, there are no bugs on alcugs. :P )

Well it would work as a temporary solution. But to tell the truth that is all it would ever be. Alcugs is ridden with bugs and with Volcano to hopefully be released sometime soon it would make continued work on Alcugs to be not needed. As Volcano has done what Alcugs has not. Phase 2 from what I heard would have age states saved, talking about PoTS ages. I.E. if you complete Ahnonay then the next time you log in Ahnonay is still completed.

Alcugs doesn't do that. Also to chat you have to /shout. Normal ki chat still doesn't work.

Right Star! Even better, I fixed the Er'cana harvester :D

BTW, No I Have no mirror to the alcugs patcher. If someone has a copy of that, I would be gald to mirror it.

The adminKI wiki included a fix for that for alcugs shards, which as we found out in our testing, fixed it for Volcano as well :)

cool.

how about the rotation of the anohay spheres? im guessing that that still doesn't work, right? :P

(i mean you can't stand in kadish's office and watch them rotate)

The sphere rotation is a little buggy (rotation lever gets stuck in the middle of the animation... probably a bug in the python and SDL problems). No one has really looked into it since I've been in Ercana, Zrax is *very* busy and is working on the P1 (fan ages) release, and I haven't heard anything from SD lately...

I've been on vacation for a while now, just got back yesturday. I could probably look at that bug, it's been annoying me for a while :P

You can't watch the spheres rotate in Kadish's office (never implimented by Cyan because this was supposed to be single player).
