Dark Age of Camelot
Test Version 1.89a Release Notes
New Features and User Interface Updates
April 19, 2007

===================================

NEW THINGS AND BUG FIXES

- Players no longer need to log out and log back into the game to finalize the changes made using the /xfire (on|off) command. Note: There may be some delay as the Xfire servers are updated. This only affects the live game.

- %t will now work in general chat.

- Added camera snapback functionality to the third person camera view. With this function enabled, while the character is moving, the player can rotate the camera around, it will automatically snap back to its original state. This feature has three adjustable settings: low, medium, and high. This feature is on by default and can be turned on and off by visiting the in-game options menu or by using the /snapback (off|on) command.

- Players may designate a specific camera view to snap back to with the /setcamera command. This view can also be reset with the /resetcamera command.

USER INTERFACE NOTES

With this version, we have begun working on revamping Camelot’s User Interface (UI). Since most of our work is currently behind the scenes, in the meantime we would like to present our players with some artistic changes. We hope that you will enjoy these changes and the revamp changes coming in the future.

As we are transitioning to the new icons, please be aware that we are currently working on widget visibility and bugs with missing icons, blank icons, and/or missing widgets. These issues do not need to be reported for 1.89a.

- The Atlantis interface skin has been given a new artistic look. All windows and UI elements for this skin have been updated for all game clients.

- The trial SI (Catacombs Engine) client now has access to the Atlantis User Interface.

- The Atlantis interface skin has been added to the SI (Catacombs engine) client. This skin is now the default skin for new installs of this client. Players using the SI client will now be able to choose between the Atlantis and Shrouded Isles interface skins, where previously they only had the Shrouded Isles skin.

- All style, spell, item, and ability icons have been graphically updated to be more colorful and detailed. The spell and style widget system has been retained for these icons.

- There no longer is code support for horizontal resize buttons.


Notes for Custom UI writers:

- Custom UI writers must convert any HorizontalResizeButtonDef and HorizontalResizeButtonTemplate which are defined into ButtonDef and ButtonTemplate respectively. The default UIs only use the HorizontalResizeButtonDef in the social window, which is specified in community_window.xml.

- Listbox headers can no longer use HorizontalResizeButtonTemplates.

- The HorizontalResizeButtonTemplates "generic_hr_button" and "listbox_hrbutton" specified in the styles.xml have been removed. The related HorizontalResizeImageTemplates "generic_hr_image_normal," "generic_hr_image_pressed," "generic_hr_image_normalhighlight," "generic_hr_image_disabled," and "listbox_header" were removed as well.

NEW FRONTIERS NOTES

- The Glacier Giant in the Midgard frontier is now resistant to charm spells.

CAMELOT CLASSIC WORLD NOTES

Quests - Albion

- Heart of Albion - Players on step 11 of this quest will now be directed to the correct location of Lady Nimue.

DARKNESS RISING WORLD NOTES

- Scouting the Gnolls - This Royal Expedition Task has been modified. The player must seek out an Outcast Gnoll Leader as opposed to Outcast Gnoll Scruffs. Players on this task need to only slay one leader now as opposed to a number of scruffs.
