Release date: 14-02-2020 Here you'll be able to read up on changes, big and small, made to various parts of the server. Highlights Character Creation Goblin and Worgen models have been updated to their HD Battle for Azeroth versions. Developer's Note: If you are using custom patches that update goblins and worgens, you are recommended to remove them. Game Objects Objects Selected objects will now be highlighted, making it easier to distinguish which object you have selected. Developer's Note: Individual objects can be deselected with ".gobject unselect" the feature as a whole can be toggled on/off with ".toggle highlight". Object Groups & Blueprints have been added. Explained further under the "New Commands and Features" section. WMOs .wmo objects can now be rotated and scaled using the same commands as for .m2s. Developer's Note: Scaling a .wmo will remove/warp its collision. This may or may not be fixed in the future as we're still investigating if this can be resolved. Items 147,005 items have been added. Developer's Note: This includes missing item variations, NPC items we've missed in the past and all NPC items up to Battle for Azeroth 8.2. 106,721 redundant items have been removed. Developer's Note: This includes items such as most of the "jelly belly" items, cloaks that were only using icon textures, as well as for example wrist items for the legs slot which did not show anything. This does however not affect items such as belts for chest slot, as those do show. Addons The Epsilon MogIt has been updated with all the new items, so make sure to get the latest one. You can get the latest version here. Developer's Note: While scrolling through the Epsilon modules, you will notice that some pages contain items from different expansions, rather than being neatly organized by expansion; this is because items are sorted by displayid (highest to lowest). There is nothing we can do about this, blame Blizzard for giving appearances displayids haphazardly. Bugs Object Rotation Yet another attempt at fixing gimbal locking (what sometimes causes object rotation to mess up). Hopefully this will be it. Developer's Note: We were unable to find a way to replicate the issue from Apertus on our development realm, as such we would appreciate to be informed of anyone continuing to experience issues with rotating objects. New Commands and Features Addons Addon API Back end API has been implemented, there are a variety of API methods that addon developers can use to epsilon-centric data. Developer's Note: Full list of API calls can be found here. Epsilon Addon The Epsilon Addon has been released. At this stage the addon release contains two modules: Epsilon Phases: Contains a list of currently hosting phases. Epsilon Phase Manager: A visual interface for changing various aspects of your phase. Developer's Note: More modules are currently in the works; however, due to time constraints, they've been omitted from this update. Character Selection Character Selection A character name filter has been added. Class text is now coloured. Current number of characters is now displayed on the Character Selection screen. Level information has been replaced with race. Portrait rings have been added. Your active morph is displayed on screen in the form of a pet. Developer's Note: This works better with smaller morphs. .cheat New subcommand added. .cheat duration [$on/off] When toggled on, channeled spells will last for 24 hours and auras will last indefinitely as spells are no longer permanent by default. .gobject New subcommands added. .gobject group A set of commands that allows you to group up several objects and manipulate them all at once. Use ".gobject select" to select the object you wish to be the "leader" of the group. You can change which object is the leader afterwards. Available subcommands are: .gobject group add #gameobject_GUID Adds the selected object to the gameobject group of the desired group leader's guid. Example: An object with the guid "9487480" is your desired group leader. Select another object and type ".gobject group add 9487480" and the selected object will be assigned to the gameobject group of object 9487480. .gobject group addnear #distance Adds all objects within #distance (yards) to the selected object's gameobject group. .gobject group addbox [#z] Adds all objects within a box drawn by coordinates from "pos1" and "pos2" to the selected object's gameobject group. Developer's note: pos1 and pos2 are assigned using the ".pos1" and ".pos2" commands. .gobject group remove Removes the currently selected object from any group it is in. .gobject group clear Clears the entire gameobject group assigned to the selected object. .gobject group promote Promotes the selected object to the leader object of the group it is in. .gobject group info Outputs information about the group the selected object is part of. .gobject group delete Deletes all objects that are assigned to the group. .gobject group copy $direction #value Copies the gameobject group towards the given direction by the given value (yards). .gobject group zcopy $direction #value Copies the gameobject group towards the given direction by the given value (yards). Additionally, the gobjects will align their Z-axis to match the terrain. .gobject group go Teleports you to the centre of the origin object in the gameobject group selected. .gobject group move $direction #value Moves the gameobject group towards the given direction by the given value (yards). .gobject group select Selects the group leader of the object you target. This is necessary if you want to use ".gobject group" commands. .gobject group unselect Deselects the currently selected gameobject group. .gobject group turn #value Turns the selected gameobject group by #value (degrees). .gobject group scale #value Scales the selected gameobject group by #value relative to the leader object. .gobject group relative $direction #value Moves the gameobject group towards the given direction by the given value (yards) relative to the player. Example: Typing ".gobject group relative forward 4" will move the grouped objects forward by 4 yards based on where your character is facing. .gobject blueprint A set of commands that allow you to save, share and import gameobject groups across characters and other people. Use ".gobject group select" to select the gameobject group you wish to turn into a blueprint. You can update this blueprint with new objects afterwards. Available subcommands are: .gobject blueprint spawn $name Spawns a blueprint using its name, at the player's location and orientation. .gobject blueprint new $name Creates a new blueprint and assigns it a name, based on the currently selected gameobject group. .gobject blueprint update $name Updates an existing blueprint using its name, based on the currently selected gameobject group. .gobject blueprint delete $name Deletes an existing blueprint using its name. Developer's note: A copy is kept for backup purposes. .gobject blueprint rename $name $name2 Renames an existing blueprint. .gobject blueprint description $name $description Sets a description for an existing blueprint. .gobject blueprint info $name Outputs information about a blueprint; name, size, creator and its assigned description (if there is one). .gobject blueprint share $name $player Shares the blueprint $name in its current state with $player. .gobject blueprint import $name/$id Imports the blueprint $name (or $id if there are duplicate names) into your blueprint library. .gobject blueprint reject Rejects (removes) the blueprint $name (or $id if there are duplicate names) from your blueprint library. .gobject unselect Deselects the currently selected object. .lookup New subcommands added. .lookup blueprint [$name] Lists all the blueprints in your library. Blueprints can be filtered by name. .lookup blueprintimport [$name] Lists all blueprints that can be imported. Importable blueprints can be filtered by name. .phase .phase forge npc New subcommand added. .phase forge npc vehicle Enables a creature's vehicle seats if the creature has a vehicle template. Developer's Note: This can be used on NPCs using the displayid of mounts such as Traveler's Tundra Mammoth, Grand Expedition Yak and so forth. It is not meant for normal mounts, ".phase forge npc mount" already exist for that purpose. .phase forge npc list New subcommand added. .phase forge npc list next Shows the next 50 phase forged NPCs if a phase has more than 50. .pos New commands added. .pos1 [#x y z coordinates] Sets a recorded position where you are or to the specified coordinates. .pos2 [#x y z coordinates] Sets a recorded position where you are or to the specified coordinates. Developer's Note: These commands are used in conjunction with ".gobject group addbox" .toggle New subcommand added. .toggle highlight [$on/off] Enables or disables the highlighting of your currently selected object. Developer's Note: If your selected object is glittering, you can turn that off by going here in-game: ESC → Interface → Display → Outline Mode Disabled = Outline and glitter Quest Objectives Only = No outline or glitter Quest Objectives and Mouseover (Default) = Outline only Quest Objectives, Mouseover and Target = Outline only Command and Feature Changes Character Selection Character Creation Character limit raised from 30 to 50. Social Friends List Character limit raised from 100 to 255. Ignore List Character limit raised from 50 to 255. Spells Spells can no longer make a character untrackable. Spells do no longer have an infinite duration by default. Developer's Note: We believe this will help alleviate some of the server lag we've been having. System Various system messages have been updated to convey more information via hyperlinks that can be used by addons. .gobject .gobject delete Now outputs the deleted object's map and coordinates in chat. .gobject select No longer requires "quotations" when selecting objects via their name. Developer's Note: If you have the "GobSel" addon installed, you will need to uninstall it. Once more shows object visibility in the output message. Setting an object's visibility to "-1" will now display "Permanent (-1)". .gobject mass visibility Setting an object's visibility to "0" will now return it to its default visibility, this will be clarified in the output message. .gobject set visibility Setting an object's visibility to "0" will now return it to its default visibility, this will be clarified in the output message. .lookup .lookup display creature Now accepts both model path and creature texture. Example: ".lookup display creature ogre" or ".lookup display creature ogreskingray". .npc .npc info Now includes the NPC's name in the output message. Now displays equipped items. Developer's Note: Only retail creatures will display what items they have equipped. .npc spawn Spawning an NPC now includes the displayid in the output message. .phase .phase population A character's rank is now displayed by their name. .phase show members A character's rank is now displayed by their name. Deleted characters are now marked with [Deleted]. .phase show officers A character's rank is now displayed by their name. Deleted characters are now marked with [Deleted]. .phase toggle listed Now usable by phase officers. .teleport Now outputs a message containing the location of where you teleported. .visibility New arguments added. .visibility verylow .visibility ultralow Available visibilities are: High - 533 yards (max) Medium - 400 yards Low - 300 yards Verylow - 200 yards Ultralow - 100 yards .waypoints .waypoints modify delay Duration limit raised from 100,000 milliseconds (10 minutes) to 600,000 milliseconds (60 minutes). Output messages have been updated to reflect this change. Bug Fixes Announce Colours should no longer leak when linking items, spells and etc in ".announce". Character Selection Character Creation Changing genders as demon hunter should now work properly. Character Deletion The "Create New Character" button is no longer displayed on the Deleted Characters screen. The "Restore Deleted Character" button is no longer displayed on the Deleted Characters screen. Deleting a restored character should no longer result in an infinite "deleting character" message. Models Full list of fixed models below. NPCs Equipping NPCs with a robe item should no longer 'skirtify' the lower section. Phases Phase Permissions Fixed an issue where phase members could use ".mod scale" on phase officers/owners but not the other way around. .gobject .gobject select Should no longer be case-sensitive. Example: Typing ".gobject select ChAiR" should now select any object with "chair" in the name. .phase .phase forge npc display Should now properly use all 1-4 displayids assigned and not turn NPCs into checkered boxes. Developer's Note: This was a result of the multiple displayids feature not functioning properly. Turns out it was always assigning the 4th displayid, even if it wasn't being assigned an actual displayid. As such it defaulted to displayid "0", a checkered box. .phase info Should no longer display an inaccurate amount of people currently in the phase. Developer's Note: As a result of this, phases should no longer be removed from ".phase overview" because of this counter reaching 0 despite there being people in the phase. .phase member It should now be possible to demote and remove deleted characters from phase member/officer Miscellaneous Server Restarts Server restarts will be happening weekly now around Wednesday 08:00 UTC. Developer's Note: While having two weeks of uptime feels good, we're aware that there are some issues that server restarts are needed for, as such we'll be restarting the server on our end at least once a week.

Beginning with this topic, I want to first preface this post with a note of appreciation for Epsilon's server. A private server dedicated to roleplay and sandbox creation is something quite unique. I had not any experience with Roleplay Heaven's server before it was shut down and hearing Epsilon having both active moderation and active developments has shown a deep appreciation for a community that is passionate for an underappreciated community and activity that beckons creativity out of everyone. Whether for artistic vision for the written word or environmental storytelling and the like. I joined back in 2021 after the first patch launched for Shadowlands and Epsilon had really occupied my time where Retail WoW has failed to capture my attention. I've since quit retail using Epsilon as the medium to get that RP feeling that I had left behind. Epsilon has seen a lot of life since Retail's Shadowlands released with critical disappointment from all walks of WoW's roleplay communities. Phases born and died, people came and gone. There is a solid, consistent playerbase for a server. In the near three years I've been here. I've seen a lot of developments and situations in a very short amount of time that has really grasped my attention, but also stacked onto some of my concerns for the future of Epsilon since my arrival. I have built phases, created blueprints, hosted a public server both of my own creation and in a small team of others in various short intervals. There's a lot to offer that can really get people hooked to the server for as long as the community is strong, healthy, and thriving. But since 2023, I've begun to notice a lot of troublesome issues arise that I don't think has been quite so addressed. Issues that could be solved with development, issues that is purely a player problem, and other concerns that I don't think can be remedied without player engagement to help shift it. We will tackle just some the positive features of Epsilon has to offer first: ✓ Solid, easy to use building tools to create your own unique vision of Azeroth with custom Epsilon objects and pre-existing assets of World of Warcraft. Whether you make an island, a castle, a house, or even a simple bowl of soup. You can create whatever you want and inject it into the world. ✓ Unfettered access to GM tools allowing you to modify the world, objects, npcs, and even players that you have permissions to alter or interact with. ✓ Fast, responsive moderation team that don't take all that long to address problems that occur in Epsilon both in and out of the game. ✓ Incredibly friendly community that will happily give building advice, social engagement, lore discussion, and more. ✓ No needless monetary systems inside the game that prevents access or utilization of Epsilon's assets or features. ✓ Performance-friendly commands to help low grade PCs handle object dense phases and overall access into the server from all walks of PC qualities able to run World of Warcraft. ✓ Player-Driven communities within communities offering plentiful RP outlets that can suit many people's tastes to how they wish to roleplay. ✓ Wide access to Transmog/outfit creation and spell macro creation to make your own spells, attacks, and aura combinations. Allowing unique poses, animations, etc. ✓ Open support for custom patch content for models, texture changes, and more that can be downloaded individually. Sometimes it even is integrated into major content patches for Epsilon! This list can continue on and on. Epsilon has a lot, and I mean a lot of positive features that makes it hard to fully ignore this server. It's a solid place I've found to find roleplay in, or an activity to engage myself in should I simply desire to do so. Epsilon is really driven by your own personal initiative to see things done. With yearly activities such as the Stranglethorn Summer Beach Bash that has its own unique map, armors, and npc model patches to provide a high quality experience. People who desire to create a unique experience has plenty of tools to make their own world within this server with plenty of available tools to provide. I came up with nine things I liked with ease, But no custom content is truly without need of feedback over faults or difficulties one may come across. To tackle this can help people be aware of some of these hurdles. Some of the aspects of Epsilon I've found distasteful: New Player Unfriendly Experience. Newer players find Epsilon to be incredibly overwhelming without a guiding hand to help navigate and engage the server upon entrance. While an introduction has been made for new players; once they leave the tutorial area. They are tossed to the wolves and they either sink or swim. Much of the tools to build, create, and the like are all off the game on this site. On top of the command prompts needed to truly get around Epsilon, especially for people who've not utilized GM tools before. They can ask for help but they do need to learn the commands on how to speak to people in game; otherwise they need to utilize Discord to get assistance which can be jarring. Lack of Developer-Community Engagement. Unless you have paid for the server's Patreon, there's very little engagement with the team outside of moderation or occasional posts on Discord to be found. There has yet to be a community event or contest since December 5th, 2022. The Epsilon Youtube Channel is shared, but all under-development videos are strictly for Patreon members to get early teasers of content to come. The Epsilon Launcher is currently behind with a whole year, January 5th, 2023 since the last new development for Epsilon. This can be a very demoralizing thing to see. Leaving people to wonder just what to expect? Nothing to get people's attention or implore people's awareness. Such as the Rule Updates that came to Epsilon that would be very important to get people up to date. The NPC in the start zone is not enough to make people aware of this. Vague and Unclear Directions to supporting Epsilon / Joining the Patreon. As it is an active, developing custom server. I've come to discover there is no easy means to help support the development of Epsilon. There is a Patreon integration that allows people to donate to the further development. But neither the Discord, nor this website has clear directions on how to get involved. Not even the launcher to the server. Many people would like to help donate to keep the lights on and the server running strong! This lack of option to help support this custom server directly hinders the server from speeding new developments along. Lack of Phase Support for public phases. Phases in Epsilon have lifespans, and many creative public phases fizzle out as soon as they begin. With only the Epsilon addon and .ph overview to see who is currently hosting for an open community. Epsilon does not allow guests of phases to see how many people are in a phase, forcing them to join and hope to find people. Without knowledge of how many people are in a phase, people will often join a phase, run around to see who's in it and if there's a lack of people... they'll leave. This is the common cause of public phase closures as nobody is willing to hang out in a low-populated phase for whatever reason. Higher population dense locations Like the Stormwind or Silvermoon Phases that has a consistent player volume easily garner more and more attention and grow. As one has a reliable source of people to connect with. New Phases are taking shots in the dark to hope and garner a form of consistent audience and engagement. Phases hosted by teams are more likely to succeed, while also further demoralizing people who lack a group of likeminded people creating a phase to open. Ambitious people on their own may open a phase for a month and then close it due to very few people joining, or being engaged long enough to justify the time requirement. This leads to people closing their phases, or whitelisting it to an insular group of friends rather than engaging with the whole. No "In-Character" Start Zone This relates to the new player experience mostly, but the Starting zone for Epsilon is the easiest way to meet people. It is an out of character area where people typically hang out. Undoubtedly you'll find 40-50 people at most given days hanging out. Either chatting, waiting, killing time and the like. It's easy to connect to people but now the question to ask.. where do you go from there? This is a ripe opportunity to offer Developer-endorsed or even developer-created zones to become official roleplay spaces that can allow people to quickly jump into a roleplay scene. Offering a place to go for new players to begin their experience in Epsilon. Whether it's something simple such as Goldshire and Razor Hill, or a unique tavern for anyone to hop into. Something to test the scene and explore about for roleplay avenues. Lack of Future Development Insight Epsilon does sometimes offer video clips of features to come to Epsilon. Shadowlands has been a heavily anticipated update that has been hard at work. But many, many people DO NOT KNOW at what stage the future is at. While this is a small team and it's no easy feat to get it out into a stable, reliable condition. People wonder what is to come and the radio silence is very disheartening. The last "big" announcement for Shadowlands' Epsilon integration was on 08/04/2023 which provided a feature teaser of Phase Light Editing on the Discord Announcements. Arcanum saw an update on 10/20/2023 but very little else has been officially seen outside of players leaking future customizations through unlisted video. Bifurcated Player Interests This is more of a community/player issue than a development issue that the team can fix. One can easily find that Epsilon's community heavily skews Alliance with a heavy emphasis with Humans and Blood Elves easily making up a majority portion of the played races. This leads into a heavy leaning towards phase creation with those themes in mind. And thus the activity of the current Epsilon populace being found in phases themed around those races. There is also a notorious locked phase that has a concerningly high population that is more active than most phases readily available to the public. With the lack of engagement and options for public phases, this lack of diverse creativity lends itself to these things becoming more glaring. Epsilon feels like the world is at your fingertips, but you're easily stunted due to the active populace not really interested in the niche and less popular races, themes, and aspects. Epsilon provides the tools for custom macros and spells, but less and less phases actually provide a space for such. It's all too common to find the roleplay scenes available not really catering to people who desire more than Human-themed buildings or elven settings. It's grand that, as of writing this post; Fourth War Kalimdor offers that scene for combat and warfront Roleplay. But they are one out of an active 8 open to the public for people to join into. These are the glaring issues I came across, with some of the sentiment shared among the less vocal people who have noticed similar patterns. Epsilon has provided a wonderful space unlike any other private server seen yet that is currently active. I'd love for Epsilon to thrive and grow with more people and custom content, and I've no intentions to quit now. I want to avoid the burnout for myself and plenty others who impatiently await the release of Shadowlands and the assured player surge that will bring. But while we wait, I do want to address these concerns of mine and also compile possible feedback others may share, or criticisms of the points I have raised. Perhaps developments could be made to reignite the community's creativity as well as lure them out of the insular groups and have a long list of open phases once more like I had once seen back when I joined. When we had hit our record high of 1000+ people in December of 2021.

Hello Epsilon, recently I've been busy with an exploration movie going over some of the more interesting prototypes in WoW from 0.x to 10.0. A sizeable chunk of that had to be shot on Epsilon so with the help of a few friends I decided to convert the cut 8.0.1 island expeditions and other early maps to 8.3.0, here's a link to the full folder. Most are rough early iterations but a few are highly detailed and would likely be interesting not just for exploration but for RP too. Note: these are not custom Noggit maps, these are simply ports from 8.0.1. For a way to convert from Wrath someone with technical and C# knowledge would need to update/fix this tool. Otherwise the tools I used are uploaded and documented here: ADT converter, WDT converter. Also for some reason sometimes Epsilon patcher doesn't always load custom map files on first log-in. Abandoned Mines An unreleased island expedition set in a mining town.

If both are -1 then all ground clutter objects are removed. .phase shift doodads adt [$on/$off] Toggles the shifting of all doodads on the current ADT. .phase shift reset Resets all phaseshifts on the current map. Using this command while in the Eastern Kingdoms will reset every phaseshift regardless of the zone you're in. .phase shift texture .phase shift texture list Shows all textures currently replaced on the map. .phase shift texture map diffuse #texture_id #replace_id Replaces the diffuse texture #texture_id with #replace_id. .phase shift texture map height #texture_id #replace_id Replaces the diffuse texture #texture_id with #replace_id. .world (New) .world adt .world adt texinfo .world adt texinfo diffuse Displays all diffuse textures on the current ADT and their respective texture_id. .world adt texinfo height Displays all height textures on the current ADT and their respective texture_id. .world adt detailinfo Displays all detail doodads on the current ADT and their respective detail_id.

Only works on non-forged NPCs. .phase .phase forge npc create Syntax changed: .phase forge npc create #display_id → .phase forge npc create Functionality changed: Creating a new forged NPC template is no longer done by specifying a base display ID. Newly created forged NPC templates are now by default a base human male. Forged NPCs are no longer limited to 4 display IDs, assign as many as you want. .phase forge npc displays Syntax changed: .phase forge npc displays $display_id1 [$display_id2] [$display_id3] [$display_id4] → .phase forge npc displays Functionality changed: See .phase forge npc displays under "New Commands and Features" .phase shift .phase shift doodads Syntax changed: .phase shift doodads [unknown] [on/off] → .phase shift doodads zone $on/$off Functionality changed: Now shifts all doodads on or off in the current zone. .phase shift list Syntax changed: .phase shift list → .phase shift doodads list .phase whitelist add Now allows spaced names.

Such as those on the Battle of Gilneas map. End of Changelog Glossary Below is a list of common terms you will encounter when reading changelogs and using commands on Epsilon, to help you understand how a command might work. Syntax The structure of a command, composed of strictly arranged words (arguments and/or parameters) required to be met for the command to be performed. Think of it as the grammar of programming, where all computers are grammar nazis who won't do what you ask if you don't write perfectly. How you see Epsilon's changelog and in-game use of syntax is not what it tends to look like in actual programming. Parameter Parameters in our case are used to structure the specific command it is you wish to perform. Argument Arguments in our case are used to tell the parameters which data type(s) to use when performing the command. Example: Syntax = .phase forge npc displays add #display_id %scale %weight In the case of Epsilon, is the same as: Syntax = .parameter parameter parameter parameter parameter argument argument argument .phase forge npc displays add 100 2 5 The arguments (green) tell the preceding parameters (white) to: "Add" #display_id "100" at %scale "2" with %weight "5" to the targeted forged NPC. Data types Floating Point - Symbol % A real number, accepts decimals. World of Warcraft does not count more than 6 decimals. .mod scale %scale = .mod scale 1.063523 Integer - Symbol # A natural number, does not accept decimals. .gobject spawn #display_id = .gobject spawn 175490 String - Symbol $ A sequence of characters, typically forming one or multiple words. .summon $name = .summon Bob the Builder Optional - Symbols [ ] When a single data type is encased in brackets, it means it's an optional argument and is not required in the syntax for the command to function. .phase forge npc displays add #display_id [%scale] [%weight] #display_id is required but [%scale] and [%weight] are optional. When two or more data types are encased in brackets, it means that though they are optional, if one is specified then both are required for the command to function. .gobject teleporter add [#guid] [#icon "$text"] [#x #y #z] [#orientation] No argument is required as the command uses player position by default, however [#icon "$text"] requires both arguments to be specified to work.

Changelog (Patch 830.2b - "Shifting Sorcery") Release date: 17 July 2021 Here you'll be able to read up on changes, big and small, made to various parts of the server. Legend • White - This was not changed. Also used for contrast. • Green - This was added. • Red - This was removed. • Yellow - This was changed. Highlights WMO attribute edits You can now change the name, ambience, music and intro sound that plays inside a WMO, both custom spawned & blizzlike versions. Area, Zone, WMO Music Soundkits The area, zone and wmo music commands now support specifying soundkits rather than Blizzard's limited ZoneMusic collection. Water, Vertex Shading Shifting It is now possible to remove water, or vertex shading from a map (or chunks of the map). Examples of vertex shading is the purple blurs beneath Brill; blackened ground underneath campfires and WMOs; and tinted terrain in Mechagon. Preamble WMOId, DoodadSetId & GroupId This update introduces the .phase shift wmo manual commandset. These commands require a rather comprehensive understanding of how WMOs work in World of Warcraft. This section aims to provide some brief details about the matter. A WMOId is a (typically) unique ID assigned to each WMO displayid. For instance, the Goldshire Inn WMO uses the file "goldshireinn.wmo" and has an arbitrarily assigned WMOId of 53. A DoodadSetID or NameID is an ensemble of objects that will only display if the spawned WMO has its DoodadSet set to that ID. So far, this data can only be set in the ADT (and thus is not possible for players to manipulate with their custom spawned WMOs). With the goldshireinn.wmo, there are three DoodadSets associated with it: Deepwater Tavern in Menethil Harbour, Lion's Pride Inn in Goldshire and the unnamed and mostly empty variant when you, the player, spawn it. A GroupID is a section of the WMO, which is sometimes used to provide sub-area names while inside the WMO. For example, inside Ironforge you will have the Great Forge, Hall of Explorers, Military Ward, Hall of Mysteries, etc. If you want to affect the whole WMO, you make changes to the GroupID "-1", whereas if you want to affect a small section of it, you will use its GroupId. New Commands and Features .phase Subcommands added: .phase shift wmo .phase shift wmo list [$search_string] Lists all WMO overrides that are in effect in your phase. If $search_string is used, only show the area overrides with that edited name. .phase shift wmo list next Displays the next 50 results of the previous command. .phase shift wmo root These commands affect the entire blizzard spawned WMO you are in quite like a zone affects an area (Ironforge, Lion's Pride Inn, etc.). .phase shift wmo root name $new_name Replaces the name of the Root WMO you are in with $new_name. If you enclose a colour code between two $ signs, the text following it until the next $ will be coloured (e.g. $81B558$Coloured Text$ will appear as Coloured Text) .phase shift wmo root ambience #ambience_id Replaces the ambience that plays in the Root WMO you are in with #ambience_id. .phase shift wmo root music #music_id [#music_id2] Replaces the music that plays in the Root WMO you are in with #music_id. If #music_id2 is specified then instead creates a new Zone Music entry with #music_id & #music_id2 as sound kits and will play #music_id at day and #music_id2 at night. .phase shift wmo root intro #intro_id Replaces the intro sound that plays in the Root WMO you are in with #intro_id. .phase shift wmo root remove Removes all Root WMO overrides applied to the WMO you are currently in. .phase shift wmo sub These commands change the section of the blizzard spawned WMO you are in rather than the whole WMO (Hall of Explorers in Ironforge, Hall of Arms in Ironforge) .phase shift wmo sub name $new_name Replaces the name of the WMO section you are in with $new_name. If you enclose a colour code between two $ signs, the text following it until the next $ will be coloured (e.g. $81B558$Coloured Text$ will appear as Coloured Text) .phase shift wmo sub ambience #ambience_id Replaces the ambience that plays in the WMO section you are in with #ambience_id. .phase shift wmo sub music #music_id [#music_id2] Replaces the music that plays in the WMO section you are in with #music_id. If #music_id2 is specified then instead creates a new Zone Music entry with #music_id & #music_id2 as sound kits and will play #music_id at day and #music_id2 at night. .phase shift wmo sub intro #intro_id Replaces the intro sound that plays in the WMO section you are in with #intro_id. .phase shift wmo sub remove Removes all area overrides applied to the WMO section you are currently in. .phase shift wmo manual These commands change the attributes of a WMO found by the three data points you provide it: The WMO Id (interchangable with "RootId"), DoodadSetID and GroupID. WMOs you spawn will rarely have a DoodadSetID that is used by Blizzard WMOs, so this is the only method to change them. .phase shift wmo manual name #WMOId #DoodadSetId #GroupId $new_name Replaces the name of the WMO section you are in with $new_name. If you enclose a colour code between two $ signs, the text following it until the next $ will be coloured (e.g. $81B558$Coloured Text$ will appear as Coloured Text) .phase shift wmo manual ambience #WMOId #DoodadSetId #GroupId #ambience_id Replaces the ambience that plays in the WMO section you specify with #ambience_id. .phase shift wmo manual music #WMOId #DoodadSetId #GroupId #music_id [#music_id2] Replaces the music that plays in the WMO section you specify with #music_id. If #music_id2 is specified then instead creates a new Zone Music entry with #music_id & #music_id2 as sound kits and will play #music_id at day and #music_id2 at night. .phase shift wmo manual intro #WMOId #DoodadSetId #GroupId #intro_id Replaces the intro sound that plays in the WMO section you specify with #intro_id. .phase shift wmo manual remove #WMOId #DoodadSetId #GroupId Removes all area overrides applied to the WMO section you specify. .phase shift water .phase shift water adt $on/$off Removes or restores all water on the current ADT. .phase shift water map $on/$off Removes or restores all water on the entire map. .phase shift water reset $CONFIRM Restores all water shifts on the map. .phase shift mccv .phase shift mccv adt $on/$off Removes or restores all vertex shading on the current ADT. .phase shift mccv map $on/$off Removes or restores all vertex shading on the entire map. .phase shift mccv reset $CONFIRM Restores all vertex shading shifts on the entire map. .lookup Subcommands added: .lookup wmo [$search_string] Lists the WMOId, DoodadSetId and GroupId of all WMOs for use in the phase shift wmo manual commands. If $search_string is used, the list only shows WMOs that match the $search_string in one of three ways: The WMO matches the gameobject name entered in $search_string; the WMO displays the area name text $search_string; or the WMO Subsection displays the area name text $search_string. Command and Feature Changes .phase .phase shift area music #music_id [#music_id2] The #music_id2 is now supported as an optional parameter. If specified, then it will instead create a new ZoneMusic entry using #music_id and #music_id2 as SoundKits and will play #music_id at day and #music_id2 at night. .phase shift zone music #music_id [#music_id2] The #music_id2 is now supported as an optional parameter. If specified, then it will instead create a new ZoneMusic entry using #music_id and #music_id2 as SoundKits and will play #music_id at day and #music_id2 at night. .gps GPS will additionally display the WMOId, DoodadSetId and GroupId of the blizzard spawned WMO you are in. This information can be used in .phase shift wmo manual Bug Fixes Crashes Various efforts have been undertaken to improve server stability and fix causes of crashes.

Character Creation All Battle for Azeroth allied races have been downported and are accessible through character creation. If you're using custom patches for allied races (such as Zandalari replacing normal trolls) and/or updated goblin/worgen models, remove said patches else you will be encountering #132 errors. Item Limit We have managed to bypass the artificial item limit in WoW; allowing us to add as many items and unique appearances as we want from now on. New Commands and Features Character Creation Character Creation Screen Names now allow a max of 24 characters, up from 12. Names now allow spaces and apostrophes. Loading Screen Default loading screen tips have been replaced with Epsilon-themed tips to be more relevant to the server. Objects Deletion Deleting an object will now flag it for database deletion in 72 hours. The object will be visually removed although memory of it will be stored, making it easier to restore accidental uses of .gob mass delete and griefing. WMOs Trying to roll/pitch/scale a .wmo object will now result in an error message. .enchant .enchant mainhand #enchant_id Applies the given enchant to your main hand weapon. .enchant offhand #enchant_id Applies the given enchant to your off hand weapon. .gobject .gobject activate New argument added .gobject active [#guid [permanent]] Activates the given object's guid permanently. .gobject set [This feature was delayed.] New subcommands added .gobject set name [$name] Assigns what text shows if the object can be interacted with/hovered over. .gobject set type chair [$sit_height] [$sit_type] Turns the gobject into a chair. Sit height defines at what height the player model will sit at using yards. Sit type defines which sitting animation is used. The available animations are: low, medium, high .gobject set type static Removes the ability to interact with the object using your cursor. .gobject set type door [#time_until_reset] Turns the object into a door. You can specify how long it takes for the door to automatically close once opened using milliseconds, limited to 15000 milliseconds (15 seconds). .gobject set type sign Turns the object into a sign. Assign the text that shows when hovering over the sign object by changing its name. .gobject teleporter New subcommand added .gobject teleporter $unaura #spell_id Gives an object teleporter the ability to unaura a spell from a player as soon as it teleports them. If "0" is the given spell, it will no longer remove any auras from a player. New subcommand added .gobject relative $direction %yards Works like .gob move, the difference is that it moves the object relative to your character's orientation rather than the object's. .lookup .lookup enchant $name Searches for an enchant using the given text, e.g. "fire". Multiple keywords are not supported. You can use the Appearances tab to view enchants normally available to players. .lookup faction $name Searches for a faction using the given text, e.g. "stormwind". Multiple keywords are not supported. New subcommand added. .lookup display .lookup display creature $part Searches for the displayid(s) of the given part (creature model), e.g. "ogredraenor". Shows the model path and the texture in use by the displayid. .npc .npc cast New argument added .npc cast [#spellid] Allows a spell to be cast upon an NPC instantly, once. Type: ".help npc cast" to get an overview of spell scripting commands. .npc set clickable Toggles whether the NPC is clickable or not. This is useful for scenery NPCs, statues and so forth. You can edit an unclickable NPC by using ".phase dm on" .phase .phase enter New argument added .phase enter [$here] Makes you enter the phase at your current coordinates. Only available to phase owner and officers. .phase forge npc .phase forge npc outfit unequip New argument added .phase forge npc outfit unequip [$all] Lets you unequip all items from an NPC at once. This does not include weapons. New subcommands added. .phase forge npc aura #spellid Applies the given spell to all forged NPCs of the targetted NPC's entryid. .phase forge npc unaura #spellid/all Removes the given, or all spells from all forged NPCs of the targetted NPC's entryid. .phase forge npc clickable Toggles whether the NPC is clickable or not. This is useful for scenery NPCs, statues and so forth. You can edit an unclickable NPC by using ".phase dm on" .phase forge npc copy Copies the targetted custom NPC and creates a new one with a new entryid. .phase forge npc creaturetype [$aberration, beast, critter, demon, dragonkin, elemental, giant, humanoid, mechanical, undead] Sets the NPC's creature type, allowing them to be tracked on the minimap by tracking spells and so forth. NPC tooltips will only show creature type if the NPC is hostile or neutral. Can still be tracked. .phase forge npc faction #faction_id Sets the faction of the NPC. If the faction has a name, it will show up in the NPC tooltips under certain circumstances. Friendly factions require a friendly NPC to show. .phase forge npc health #mod Sets the health modifier of the NPC to a max of 1,000,000. .phase forge npc level #minlevel [#maxlevel] Sets the level, or level range of the NPC between 1 and 110. .phase forge npc mana #mod Sets the mana of the NPC to a max of 1,000,000. .phase forge npc mount #display_id Sets the mount of the NPC using the given displayid. Setting the mount to displayid 0 will dismount them. .phase forge npc rank #rank_id Sets the status of an NPC, such as Elite, Rare, etc. 0 = Normal 1 = Elite | Gold border 2 = Rare Elite | Silver border 3 = Boss | Gold border, skull 4 = Rare | Silver border .phase forge npc sheath #sheath Allows you to set the default sheath type for a custom NPC. 0 = Sheathed 1 = Melee 2 = Ranged .phase own New argument added .phase own [$here] Makes you enter the phase at your current coordinates. .phase set weather $weather #density Allows you to set the weather and its density of your phase. Available weather types are: rain, snow, sandstorm, thunderstorm, blackrain, bloodrain, blacksnow, mistgrain, fireball, deathwing, firespark, arcanespark, thunder Density goes from 0 to 100. Known issues: Requires terrain to work. If you've built a phase more than 60-75 yards above terrain, the command will not work for you. Some weather effects do not show below a certain density, for example, arcanespark must be at density 30+ to show. Using [Blink] spells, object transporters or ".gps" will break the weather effect, simply re-activate it. .phase shift New subcommand added .phase shift $list Shows which zones have been shifted within your current phase. New subcommand added .phase dm $on/off Allows you to toggle on or off "Dungeon Master", or "<DM>" status in a phase, making you essentially a <GM> of that phase. DM status allows you to click and edit unclickable NPCs, now important due to the addition of the ".npc set clickable/.phase forge npc clickable" commands. Both commands turn NPCs into the perfect candidates for scenery or statue NPCs, for example. DM status is only available to the owner of a phase and officers. DM status will be removed upon leaving a phase and will also be removed if the player is demoted. Command and Feature Changes Character Creation New Characters Action bars should no longer be filled up with spells and/or abilities. New characters should now start with 4 Foror's Crate of Endless Resist Storage (36-slot) instead of Madman's Luggage (34-slot). NPCs NPCs now spawn with their weapons unsheathed by default. Whispers You can now whisper a player with a spaced name by replacing the space(s) with an underscore "_". Example: "/whisper This_Char_Doesn't_Exist" .whisper still works as well, however it will be pointing out this new system and will thus likely be removed in a later patch. .character .character changefaction Has been restored to being a player command. Using it twice will remove the faction change flag from the character. .character changerace Has been restored to being a player command. Using it twice will remove the race change flag from the character. .gobject .gobject info Now shows the current gobject state. Now shows who built the object. Now shows visibility of the object. Now shows gobject teleporter information. .gobject mass visibility #sight_range #entry #radius Sight range is now a 3D sphere instead of a 2D circle. .gobject move System message changed to match that of ".gobject spawn". .gobject select Has been rewritten from scratch to reduce lag caused by ".gob sel <keyword>". Functions the same, only difference is; keywords now have to be written within quotation marks. Example: .gob sel "bench" Now accepts an object's guid as input. No longer shows who built the object. No longer shows visibility of the object. No longer shows gobject teleporter information. .gobject set visibility #sight_range sight range is now a 3D sphere instead of a 2D circle. .gobject teleporter setspell #spell_id/0 Now accepts "0" as the given spell to remove setspell from teleporter. .lookup .lookup item Now accepts an optional slot input, the slot must be prefixed with a dash "-". All available inventory slots can be seen by typing: ".help lookup item" Example: ".lookup item tattoo -shirt" Will show you all items with "tattoo" in its name that can be equipped in the shirt slot. This works with keyword filters, such as: ".lookup item tattoo brown -shirt" It does not matter in what order the slot or keyword(s) are given as long as the slot is prefixed. .nameannounce (GM-only) Command renamed.

I agree with the sentiment. However, I disagree with advertising Epsilon as a brand new server--it really isn't. We have already advertised ourselves to /r/wowservers in the past, and we are even mentioned in its sticky and have an entry in the associated dkp website, which is how several people have found us. I think it's a good idea if we make a thread to time with the release of 735.4, but I'm not sure which locations are proper other than /r/wowservers. I also don't see Argent Dawn and Moonguard as threats--a lot of people who join Epsilon come from there, as I ask each and every single person how they found us and what community they hail from. It appears our name circulates across multiple guilds and communities in both servers, and that's pretty much all we can hope for in that regard beyond making WoW accounts and starting to advertise in Pornshire (no thank you). I also second the subject of welcoming new players. It is a very difficult transition to make if you've never played on this type of server before, and many roleplayers who have heard of phase-based servers lambast it as a ridiculous premise. Our primary objective should be to educate players on the differences that can be found between streamlined narrative RP servers, whether GM or not, and phase-based RP servers. Our server is more like Reddit, a place to host private servers (phases) that each act as more like a campaign with a central theme, so that each can coexist. Much of people's annoyance with streamlined RP servers is that characters are developed for years and people refuse to part with them, even under epic circumstances, or try to bring them back. It is less common here as characters are, inherently, throwaway, and are more similar to a D&D campaign rather than some kind of personification you must protect at all costs.
