It's All Celebration And Music!

Well well well, quite a week huh, some new v28 news, vult goes insane and talks about James bond, and guess what, ENDLESS RADIO IS BACK!!!!! Yes, from back in the days of yonder when i was but a wee newb training My brains out, endless radio has kept me going, and then, it sadly resigned only to restart today, and oh thank you lord as what an amazing happening to take place, that;s right, turn up your speakers, get ready, and begin to use your ears, as endless radio returns with Badboyerk and hopeful some other DJs in the near future, i wouldn't exactly push, but i would be happy to volunteer if possible =D.

Anyway, also going on this week was the official best party of the month, hosted entirely by JFKROWLING he rounded up some guests and got the party rocking, there was music, drinks, events and fun! And of course, a nice race at the end to finish it all off, i volunteered to come and join the party and record some of it for this week's 'Picto-Tv', which is a new thing that i will be posting every week, including interviews and tricks of the trade etc. Anyway, as soon as i arrived everyone greeted me and was amazed that i had a link running to a global network website that runs automatic stream straight on to the server, and this certainly got the party bumping...


And After The Race Track beheld a great race with some great prizes...



With This addition i will now add a small link section featuring all the Picto-Tv Episodes that will feature throughout the weeks, months, years, and so, the picto-blog is slowly getting bigger, and bigger, and bigger... You may also notice the fact that i have added a small 'Hot To' for endless radio, everyone should listen to it, seriously..

So thanks To JfkRowling! And To Badboyerk for both providing us with some awesome fun and tunes! -Picto

Inivisibility Is For Superheroes ONLY.

Invisibility, it's a crazy little thing isn't it... You think your there...but your not...so yes, it's all weird. There's a very specific way of doing it also, however, at an effort to cut down the 'invisibilityer's' i'm not going to reveal it, however, i can say that it is stupid , wrong, against the rules and will cause you to be punished indefinitely...So DON'T DO IT! Anyone that does and is caused will be severely punished i am assured, and doing this just means that Vult-R has somehtign else to work out for v28b meaning more waiting time, so either way it can only be bad for you...

And infact, on the subject of rule-breaking, here's somehting else you may want to know, i took it upon myself to on purpose, try trading test items for main items and vice-versa today, i rounded up some nice test items, and set off. I hit quite a few people that said they were buying test stuff for main stuff, infact, i got around 5 people...all, were scammers, here is a list :

-Icytouch
-Littlelad
-Staples
-Arviddddd
-Gemglaster

All are scammers, however, i think they may of removed their accounts now after i revealed my true idenity (i was playing as 'Photoshop'), and told them that everyone would know they were scammers once i posted this...
During this experiment i lost :

-3 Heroes
-1TB
-2 Ketovas
-4 Rapiers

Remember, i take these tests so you don't have to, i SERIOUSLY suggets not ever trying to buy or sell anything to and from servers, you will most likely get scammed, or worse yet...a bad deal, however you will almost always get scammed unless the person you are trading with is a reliable friend or companion...

So, to some up, don't try invisibility, it's a waste of time and money, and never ever try to trade between servers, the last thing i have to say is that you should never go on or download anything from a endless online hack site (there are many) as they will 60% of the time contains keyloggers, backdoors or worms which will take you password and destroy your PC.

Picture.

I have removed the database due to popular demand, however, i have chosen the winner of the picture competition, one made by 'Honk', it is of me when i had my wings and i'm wearing ketova, hod and weilding a rather nice twin blades. So thankyou once again for that picture, you can click it to see the proper size version, and also there is a thanks at the bottom.

In other news, the only other things happening include the fact that version 28 has still not hit main, however, if you install the version 28 server then go on to main, you'll see that the beetles have been replaced because the gfx files are on the download.

Also, you may notice that there is a favicon now next to the name of my blog when in a link toolbar such as firefox bookmarks toolbar. Favicon means 'favourite icon' , and so it is the little image that appears next to a favourite, it may only be a small adjustment and not that much in importance, but atleast it is there and personally i think it looks great and makes the blog far more appealing

Finaly, i'd like to thank the 2000 people who have visited in the past week, cheers -Picto

Make Me

This is somehting i recently made on the forums, but if you read it here you can have a go too, instead of me retypeing it, i'll give this a quote. :

''Can anyone please make me a drawing or a picture of me that i would be able to use in my blog, i need something that is well drawn, and is a good style. Perhaps manga or cartoon, i have no money to offer i am very sorry, however, the winner's will become the official picture of ym character for my blog and will be given full credit, if you want to, i'd appreciate it.

As for what i'm wearing:

You can use this
Or this

Or oblon, Helmet of darkness and a rapier.

-Picto''

So then, if anyone thinks they can or wnat to draw me then feel free, because i need a picture of me for this blog, especially for my profile, ok , thanks.

V28A Graphics Patch And More

I've updated the site's overall appearance a bit lately, inluding the picture at the top, the side-bar a bit, and the fact that i've added the database pages aswell, just incase, they are no longer a main attraction, but they're there just incase you ever need to check soemthing, i suppose i'll get around to finishing it, i even gave it a bit more of a cleaner look and more professional, i'll finish it when all the v28 malarky is over, and when the blog is looking a bit cleaner.

I'm currently in need of some html assistance, if anyone knows how to move the sidebar a bit further over to the right that would be great, as at the moment it's a bit close to the stupid post section, so yeah, let me know in comments if you know how that would work. In Other News, here's the new V28A graphical update patch i mentioned :

Download 1 Provided by cascade

Download 2 Provided by FileFactory

They're both the same, and created by our very own DF, they provide some graphical changes to the game, whic are all upgrades and increase the game's quality, this features :

  • Health bar changed from pink to red
  • Royal Shield magic casting animation fixed
  • Last Samurai sitting position feet fixed
  • New Hero Plate walking front view rise is fixed
  • School Costume walking back view rise is fixed
  • Priest Robes Arrow shooting always wearing blue boots is fixed
  • Bank Bobs eyes have been fixed
Basically you just open up the .zip and copy all the gfx files into
C:\Program Files\EndlessOnline\Gfx , or wherever you saved endless, and in the GFX files, and when pasting say ''yes to all''. If you don't want to include the heart pink > red update,
just don't copy gfx002 to the gfx folder. A huge thanks and congrats to DF / Knight for all that information, really helpful for the OSD maniacs that won't everything perfect, and of course, for people that just hate bank Bob's eyes.

No other news, except i really still don't know about any news on v28AMAIN or v28B , but i'm pretty sure they're close so stick around, i can't imagine vult releasing a resource version and then not releasing anything proper for ages. However, still don't believe anything anyone tells you unless it comes from an official source, e.g. Me, DF, Wikky, Nezlo Or an admin, as it will most probably be false and / or stupid. E.g. : ''OMG lal i finally got teh new bow wewt!''

And with that rather comical note, i leave you with this : 80% of all women would rather see a human die in a movie, than an animal ^^. -Picto

The Ultimate v28A Guide!

Thanks For Coming to the new location of my blog, whether you heard about it via forums or in game, it's great to finally be settling in and changing the layout some. Today i will be issuing the largest, in-depth most comprehensive look into Version 28A of endless online, in this guide you will find guides, locations, tips, secrets and future updates to be featured in v28B or v28Main...

By The Way, Here's The Download Again :

Download Here

Then once installed, changed the IP adress in configuration to TEST.ENDLESS-ONLINE.COM

OK
, Firstly, i want to answer the question that everyone has been asking, where the hell is everything, well here's your answer, it is no-where. OK? V28A is simply a resource updates, meaning they Can install some large and minor updates to do with gfx, location or statistical upgrades, nothing which features newer advanced weapons, armours or spells. V28A (V28TEST) Is simply a basis for vult-r to put all the version 28 items and upgrades on to, in what is most likely going to be v28B or v28MAIN. Now, either he did this because the upload was far too big to include everything, he was required to do this so he Can later install the further updates with problems, or he released an unfinished version to shut up people who were demanding or complaining about endless online. I repeat, v28A will not contain any new items or features, only new locations, and some minor updates, please realise this before you begin reading, and before you see the ''Future Updates'' Section near the bottom of the post.

OK Then, firstly, here are some myths and facts about v28A :

Myths (Not Real):
  • Sharks Drop Baru
  • Fire Or Ice arrows are available from ****
  • Omg! Chef Hats are sold here ****
  • Seamen are somewhere in Atlantis currently
  • There are now 2 Apozens.
  • Skin Event coming very soon!
  • All items being updated tomorrow / today!
  • Olawl, crowns are 600k!
  • Oblons and rapiers are no longer discontinued.
  • I just got a turtle / panda / devil!
  • Wow! All the prices have gone up! Xbow is now 1mil, hero is now...
Facts (Are Real):
  • In The intro (Layered technologies) and the start screen, the 'v27' and '00.27' have not been updated, but it is still v28.
  • V28A will be released soon, but not within the next week at least.
  • V28A is currently only available on test, sorry.
  • In Atlantis you do loose health, but you do not die.
OK Then, with that out of the way, here are the NPC / Monster updates:

Cactusaur



Facts: They Replace beetles everywhere in the game.
They Drop : Beetle Fangs (?) And dragon masks.
Exp Given : 8
Location : Nomad Desert, Vulture Island, Sand secret.

Fish



Facts : A Simple NPC in Atlantis, no meaning.
They Drop : None
Exp Given : None
Location :
None

And so, they are all the creatures and such that have been uploaded so far, not much to write home about, but I'm sure we'll get more eventually.

So, here are some main features of the update:

Disco:



There is a band now and some funky new music if you have background music on whilst you play, it is worth heading down there, they do nothing but play, however, you Can stand in the drummer and make rude remarks if you wish, from left to right:

Piano panda (On Piano)
Rock Daddy (Wise Man On Lead Guitar)
Rock Star (Both Wrestlers on base guitars)
Drummer (On the Drums)

And that's just about it, they do nothing but play play play, personally, i miss the disco xD.

Endless Boulevard:

To be honest, not much has changed, but i must admit, it look a lot neater than it did before, and i personally like it.



Sorry if it's a bit small but it's the best i could do xD.

Swamp Temple:

Well here's something very new, a new area and a nice new building, which will hopefully home some secrets as the updates are revealed.



Not much there as i previously said, but, mind the many traps, and I'm sure that by the time another version comes out, there will be plenty of inhabitants, or perhaps some quests?

Atlantis:

This is the big almighty update, and i must say, it does meet people's expectations to some degree, although I'm sure people, like me would've preferred a bit more...



There really isn't much there besides some fish and some rather odd building, one of which includes some chairs, so yes, i suppose the is the same as the temple, it will receive some friends as the versions continue, and personally, I'm hoping it gets as much as its full potential Can handle, this sorta location comes once in a few games, and deserves to be rewarded.

There are currently 3 building there, all 3 stop damage, except for one where the upstairs still hurts you, but don't worry, you can't die underwater. And you'll receive different damage depending on level and amount of total hp, so someone with a total hp of 190 will be hit by 15s+, where as a lvl 3 with 60 hp will only be hit by 5s.

Stat Changes:

Here's the round up of the few changes to stats of weapons and armour:

Arrows : Now add 1 accuracy and no strength.

That's it for now, but stay tuned for future stat changes.

Other minor changes include the top bar ; where the HP bar has now become several pink hearts, the tp bar has now become some blue stripes instead, sp bar (how long you can hit) no has a new stupid logo, and the tnl bar is now made up of stars, with another new logo, which is a star.

= Hp Bar

= Tp Bar

= Sp Bar

= Tnl bar

  • In Aeven grocery, there is now 2 entrances to the basement to stop shop bob clogging.
  • Hp Bar Has Been Altered Slightly :
  • Now on A Map, chests and seats etc. are indicated by a blue exclamation :
  • Paths have been added to several locations, including one leading to the disco.
  • Endless boulevard now has a rather stylish map at last ^^.
  • The colours and maps have all been touched up slightly and neatly .
Questions:

Here are the answer to some of the questions asked to me by the great asking endless public.

Terralee -
which cave is death cave i forgot?

Answer - It is the one with the reaper re spawn in terralee.

Honde - Where do you get the new things, i really want them!

Answer - Well I'm sorry, but they just haven't been released yet, you'll have to wait a while for the upgrade.


Zapmagnet - Will new items come later?

Answer - I'm almost certain they will.

Legacylegend - Why release just maps and no actual stuff?

Answer - Because as i already said, this is just a resource update and not really an overall brand new version, this version is more like the foundation.

Legacylegend - where is the new swamp temple area?

Answer - Check My above video or even Df's guide on the endless online forums.

Zapmagnet - What about fire / ice arrows?

Answer - The Just simply haven't been released yet, don't believe idiots that say they have them or know where they are.


Zapmagnet - Was vult on yesterday?

Indeed he was, mainly to reboot the server.


Equinox - Are you going to get the new stats yet?

Answer - Probably not sorry, it is impossible to predict the stats without some sort of lead or hint.


Zapmagnet - when is there going to be a drop or skin event?

Answer - There probably won't end up being one, there is not need to have one, but you never know.

Legacylegend - What are the ingredients for the new items?

Answer - How do you know they're going to be crafted? I'm sorry but i have no idea.

Zapmagnet - Finally, how old is vult?

Answer - Lal, what?!

OK, Items, now, as of yet no new items have been released, but, here is what is expected of version 28:

Items

And I'd like to say a HUGE thank you to wickedfrost for that picture. Now don't go looking for this stuff now, you'll have to wait until it is properly announced and released by the endless online items. As far as names and pictures go, I'm fairly sure they're all correct.

Credits:

DF - For helping me massively with this Guide
Test Server Community - For once again, helping me with this guide and giving me leads ;)
Wickedfrost - The Items Picture
The endless online admins - For releasing v28 (You sure shut me up)
The Askers - For giving me questions to answer.

So Thank you all for reading, i can see that moving the blog to blogger.com was definitely the right move, and now with this post done, i cna finally move on to getting this place looking even better than it ever has, so i hope you enjoy v28A and find this guide helpful, stick around for updates.

V.28 Ahoy!

Hey, i'm so happy that to break in my new location and home of the picto-blog,althouhg the site is very rough at the moment, this post was urgent! I am privalged with v28 pictures and news, infact, here's a complete round up:

Firstly, Here's The Link : Download V28 Here.

It's currently test server only, so change your configuration to : TEST.ENDLESS-ONLINE.COM

Now please realise, this version is more of a resource upgrade, not the proper version, v28b which i should imagine will be released soon enough will feature most new things including items and monsters, Such as the pirate hat or tebarus.

Item Updates so far :

Arrows Now Add 1 Accuracy And No Strength.

New Monster In Desert Replaces Beetle :



Yep, they drop exactly same as the beetles, pretty boring actually...

the Top Bar As Been given a make over:



Sorry it is a bit small, basically, the HP bar is now hearts, tp is now just sorta blue strikes, tp as new sorta logog, and tnp is now stars and new logo, as star.

Ok Then, we also have an update to endless boulevard, yes, now a fresh new look with thachted things, and now has a map,and a jukebox, enjoy:



Thankyou To Marauding For That.

There is also a new area at the far back right of the swamp, not much there, not even any monsters, however, there are lilly pads on the water and also some other small glitchy thigns included a rather small house near the back, which cannot be entered.



Thankyou to Amee for that ifnormation.

And here's a new area which cna be found in the new swamp area, full of traps and glitches :



More Exlcusives : Here is a large pcitures of what v28 amy bring :

Thankyou Zneo a.k.a Febul For that.

Here are the new shields.

Here are the new boy cloths and armor.


Thankyou to maxcfood for that information.

And finaly (For Now) Here is what you've all been waiting for :



YES! That is atlantis! And you can get there by going to the bottom left of death cave, where you'll find a blue exclamation mark on the map, enter, then follow the path around (for a while_ and you'll eventually end up in atlantis.
There isn't much there currently, but standing outside or in soem of the building will result in you loosing 15hp every now and then, (didn't count in seconds) .However, some building provide shelter from the damage.

I would just like to give a HUGE thanks to DF for helping me relentlessly during finding all this stuff, i'm sure i'll have more you tomorrow, but until then enjoy, and i hope you enjoy the home to the picto-blog, i will as it becomes a bit easier on the eyes.
