As promised here comes T-Engine4 and ToME4 beta15 !
See http://tome.te4.org/ http://te4.org/ http://blog.te4.org/
Yes, beta15 comes out very quickly. It is mostly a bug-fix release but
there is one real improvement that I wanted to share with you all: Saving
speed has been greatly improved. People that had really terrible saving
speeds of over two minutes for simple zones are now down to a few seconds.
Release highlights:
* Greatly improved saving time
* New game option to disabled background saving, this blocks the game
while saving but improves save speed
Expanded changelist:
* Rewrote the data serializer, savefiles should be *much* faster
* New option to disable background saving
* Mage apprentice quets will now require only 10 items or an artifact
staff/ring/amulet
* Fixed wands of illumination
* Fixed character description on the load screen
* Fix the Dragon Helm
* Update Tol Falas lore
* Old forest is now a bit brighter
* Much new Iron Throne lore
* Higher now have a life rating instead of a lite rating :)
* The Crypt of Kryl-Feijan will not pop before level 20
* Elisa will not end her quets multiple times
* Can not rush while pinned
* Bumping encounters on the worldmap triggers them
* Amulets of Mastery can provide bonuses to any trees
* Divine/Guardian talents have higher requirements
* Manasurge Rune now provides a small direct mana inscrease an a %
increase of natural mana regen
* Two new world artifacts
Have fun!
