We've added on the ATS (Advanced Test Servers) several gameplay, interface and Ring elements we've been working on lately. Today the ATS has been opened to all of you who have access to the mainland (if you are on a Free Trial, you won't have access to it).
Note: as only the Arispotle shard is full on the ATS, if you had characters bound to the Leanon or Aniro ATS we've relocated them so that you can play on Arispotle. If a character had the same name as a char from Arispotle, it hasn't been copied.
More recent characters and Cho characters don't exist on the ATS as we're using characters saves from a few months ago, so you may need to create a new character on the ATS. Be sure to select the shard "Arispotle".
Here's the main content of the patch:
- The Guild window should display the online status of the guild members.
- The Contact list should display properly the online status of your friends.
- A few new haircuts have been added for each race.
- The 1 Hand weapons should hit at their wished speed.
- You can customise your emotes, as explained here.
- The Factions channels are always available to faction aligned homins. You don't have to be PvP tagged anymore to have access to these channels.
- You can receive tells when you are in the AFK state.
- NPC Bosses: they are back!
Please post your feedback
here for the NPC bosses and
here for the other points.
- Ring: the objects and NPCs' number limitation are increased. In your Ring Scenario, you should be able to place 300 objects (components and bot objects) and 200 NPCs.
- Ring Editor: you can now draw an array of walls. You simply have to tick the "Draw Array" option in the "Palette" and trace a line of objects.
- Ring Scenario Scoring: you can vote for a scenario. To do so, open the "Scenario Scoring" window (shift+J when you are playing in the Ring Scenario) and fill the different fields. The scenario score will be displayed in the Loading Scenario windows (when you create a Ring Animation) and in the scenario's description tooltip on the Ring Terminal.

How to play on the ATS:
1. Be sure that your Ryzom live client is patched to the latest version (verify this by simply logging into the game)
2. Copy this live folder into another one (example: \Ryzom ATS)
3. We will now work only in this new folder.
4. Open your
client.cfg and change the lines:
Application = { "ryzom_live", "./client_ryzom_rd.exe", "./" };
StartupHost = "213.208.119.220:40916";
into (or add these 2 lines if the ones above don't exist):
Application = { "ryzom_test", "./client_ryzom_rd.exe", "./" };
StartupHost = "rsring03.juk.shards.nevrax.com:40916";
5. Launch the client_ryzom_rd.exe and log with your usual login and password.
6. You are now ready to play on the ATS. Have fun!
If you encounter any trouble to log into the ATS, please contact your favourite CSRs on the
