Developer Updates

The latest news straight from the lead developers of the sandbox MMORPG Xsyon.

  1. Developer Update 11.16.2015

    Hello Xsyon Citizens!

    Just a heads up for today. I'm going to run some very specific data loading tests on the Test Server with the assistance of the Guide Team over the next few days.

    During this time, data on the Test Server will be strange (for example, all objects will appear as floors). For players that like to join in on the Test Server, you can just ignore the strange things you'll see until I post again calling for specific public tests.

    Thanks!

    I will be enabling and disabling functions of the revised ...

  4. Developer Update 09.23.2015

    Hello Xsyon Citizens!

    I don't have any especially important or interesting to report at the moment, but I'd like to keep you all updated on what's going on behind the scenes.

    I'm still focused on the major revision to creatures and combat as detailed in last month's update. Things are coming along, but slowly. I've further revised and optimized some components that I had considered 'done' last month and I've updated the code so that I can switch between the current live ...

  5. Developer Update 08.16.2015

    Hello Xsyon Citizens!

    First of all, I apologize for my silence since the server move earlier this month. Partly this was due to personal distractions (including being sick for several days). I've been in touch daily with the Xsyon Guide Team. I've just been a bit out of the loop with the forums.

    Primarily, I've been fully concentrated on the upcoming massive creature update. Things are coming along well, but taking time. This is a major update which is going to encompass ...
