Tutorial TutorialStaff Update: Artists!
It was tough to choose between all the talented artists who applied to join our team, but after much deliberation, we've updated our Team page with the results! Thank you all again for spreading the word - we received an overwhelming number of applications, much more than we expected, and we are so grateful for the enthusiasm. We're holding on to some of the applications for the future if more positions open up!
Please give a warm welcome to our newest artists, MagpieM and Courtney! I'd also like to cheer for Gwendolyn, since she joined us earlier this year as a Snarl concept artist without a specific Staff Announcement, so give her some love too!
Thank you all again for helping to make Tattered World the best it can be!
Code Update: 10/13/20
Ooh, everyone's looking so spooky already! I'm here to join in the Halloweave fun by bringing you the scariest update of them all: bugs! Ooogaboogabooga! Well, they're scary to me, anyway. So I fixed 'em!
In the spirit of spookiness, our major feature update this month is a new Setting: Blocked Items. I understand that not everyone enjoys the creepy, the gory, the scary, or the niche fear that they really don't want to bring up - so we've added this feature to hide any specific site items from view. What this does is simply adds a blurred overlay on top of the item, and if it's a clothing item it also adds the blurred overlay on top of any avatars wearing that item. Please keep in mind that this is a huge change across the site, so there may be some bugs despite our best attempts to test the code over the past few weeks. You can report any issues in the Technical Support Forum and we'll try to get them fixed as soon as possible!
The User Shops page has been updated to fix a few bits of broken buttons. You can once again Wishlist and Preview items regardless of how many Shards/Gems you have, and the page refreshes should be back to normal.
Outfit names are now limited to 20 characters, and will cut off after that amount. This is not retroactive, so if you have any Outfits already saved with a longer name they should remain the same until you re-save over them.
Changing to a different page number after loading an Outfit in your Dressing Room will no longer reset the Outfit.
Though we were unable to pinpoint the exact cause of the error messages that rarely appear on Quest pop-ups, we've added some text to the error messages that tell the user to refresh the page, since that should clear up the problem.
Please note that it may take up to an hour for these changes to appear on your account. As always, if you notice any bugs or issues, please report them in the Technical Support Forum so we can work on getting those fixed as soon as possible. Thank you all again for making Tattered World the best it can be!
October Event: Happy Halloweave!
Okay, places, everyone- NO, Hero, not you! For the last time, your place right now is in the AUDIENCE, ugh! This cast has been giving me enough trouble as it is without, like, audience participation. Thank goodness for coffee cup number eight- nine? Whatever.
Actors ready! Lights dim! Curtains rise in three, two...
Site Contest: October 2020
AHA, what is THIS? A group of villains, gathered to plot some nefarious deed? At last, Mawnite, we may have uncovered the Narrator's pawns responsible for the latest scheme that has beset the Shadow Stage-
"..."
Oh! I see. Thank you for the correction… It does indeed appear to be an innocent group of costumed Travelers, here to assist me with the Happy Halloweave October Site Contest!
New Premium Items: Spooky Scrying!
Oh man, it's been WAY too long since I got to visit the Shadow Stage! Mmm, still has that popcorn and candy scent. Gotta remember to grab some extra snacks to pay back Iris for taking me through the Tatters... Mom and Dad wouldn't need to always be soooooo afraid of Snarls attacking me if they'd let me Ally with a Kith of my own, just saying...
Anyway, Scribe, thanks so much for meeting with me!! I'm totally amped to have you on board for Halloweave this year. My Palentine's Day collab with Witch was such an epic success that I've been super excited to bring lots more people on board with Halloweave, too! Plus, I've gotta say, it's cool to have somebody else volunteer to direct everything for once... Sometimes it kinda feels like, dunno, all of my silly projects have gotten so big that I've barely had time to actually just relax and have fun with them?
So lay it on me, director! What are you thinking for this year's theme? How are the costumes coming?
