    Version Update 9.2.6
    1 Apr 2008

    The Entropia Universe is being updated with VU 9.2.6.
    The Entropia Universe servers will be temporarily unavailable while we implement VU 9.2.6 between:

    2008.04.01 09:00 and 2008.04.01 13:00 UTC

    We apologize for any inconvenience caused.


    Trade Terminal
    Armor Foot Guards and Animal Oils can now be purchased at the TT terminals.

    Auction
    Auction expire times adjusted.
    To reduce price manipulation in auction, Entropia participants will be required to remain online during the entire duration of their auction sale. To ensure participant health and safety, the maximum auction duration time is now set to FOUR hours.
    As we cannot apply the expire change to exisiting auction items, all items for sale in the auction during the server downtime will be returned to the loot pool.
    It is no longer possible to place auction orders.

    Avatar Health
    To encourage Entropia particiants to gain healing skills, ALL Fast Aid packs will be updated to Modified Fap Packs (L). Avatar health points are also updated to 1,000 health points. Avatars are updated to (L) status. If an avatar health is reduced to zero, the avatar expires and all items are returned to the loot pool.
    We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this.

    CryENGINE2 Update
    Currently, about 90% of MindArk's programming resources are allocated to the adaptation process of the CryENGINE2.
    Fifty five additional programmers have been employed to speed up the adaptation process, while we continue to search and accept applications for further programming positions (visit Home for more details). These will allow us to continue enhancing existing Entropia systems and develop exciting new content like magic carpet vehicles, time travel, fishing and edible avatar underwear once the integration phase is complete.


    The connection to the Entropia FTP is more secure and each time a weapon is used, the connection is tested. If there is no contact you will receive an error message and your weapn will be returned to the loot pool.

    A new Mindforce skill is introduced, Dolittle Power. This can be enhanced if you already have unlocked Doctor in the medical skills. Rather than hunt creatures, Entropia participants will have the ability to negotiate with the creatures and encourage them to contain lootable items.

    Enhanced creature AI
    The argonaut, berycled and maffoid species have been updated with new graphics and shader technology. Their behaviors have mutated in the process. Argonauts will now regularly visit towns and remove items from your storage container. You will then have the exciting opportunity to loot your items back from the Argonauts.
    Maffoids will periodically vist the apartments of Calypso residents, eating any fruit found in the apartment, throwing your furniture out of the window and moving any high TT items onto the balcony.
    CND apartment owners can expect random visits from Berycled, who will leave permanent deposits of dung and then make large nests in any doorways. Lucky participants might find an egg in the nest. Look forward to the egg hatching in a future VU.

    Items
    A range of new items have been added and are waiting to be discovered.
    All carpets have now changed names to mats.
    To reduce litter, items with a value below 100 PED cannot be dropped.

    Beauty
    Additional hairstyles have been added.
    The red color around avatars' eyes has been restored.

    Minor tweaks and stability updates.

    If you want to avoid your EU install being updated with this shocking update, simply don't log in today. I suspect this update is only effective if you log in today. :-\"
