Regarding project Zanaris

by Mike » Tue Oct 01, 2024 1:25 pm

For the past month or so, there's been a lot of talk about project Zanaris. For those who are not informed about this, you can visit https://zanaris.runescape.com. Basically, project Zanaris is a platform for community OSRS servers, led by Jagex, where people can customize their own OSRS server, and thereby basically creating a sort of RSPS that is officially tied to OSRS, with all the OSRS content already in there.

This project opens up a big opportunity for RSPS developers to make their own sort of RSPS without having to spend weeks and months and years adding the latest OSRS content (not to mention being legal unlike RSPS now) and instead focusing all their attention on customizing the server. A lot of details are still unknown, and we're not sure how far this customization can go, but it does sound pretty exciting from a developer's point of view.

At this point, it is too early to tell whether we would like to partake in project Zanaris, but I think it is unlikely to happen as it would mean I would have less time I can spend on PkHonor. I have my heart and soul put into this game, and I want to stick to two of my promises that I had made in the past:
  • PkHonor will never shut down as long as there is as much as a single person playing it
  • There will never be an eco reset. If someone stops playing and come back 20 years from now, they'll find their accounts in exactly the same state in which they left them
That being said, I acknowledge that PkHonor has been lacking in updates and new content for some time. This is largely in part due to the mental health issues that both myself and Rapsey have been battling for the past years. I am now doing much better, but it's important for me to keep things in check and not burn myself out again, so I need to take things slow and pace myself.

I normally don't discuss financials with outsiders, but this one time I'll make an exception, so that you all understand the current situation. As it is, PkHonor brings in just enough money to keep our servers running (no worries, even if the donations run dry, I'll keep the server running from my own savings as I did back in 2010 if needed). However, that also means there is no money left to pay either myself or Rapsey. As a result, I have no choice but to keep taking on assignments a a freelance programmer so that I can pay my bills, and to work on PkHonor in my spare time.

Mind you, I don't care that much about not being paid for my work on this server. But it does mean that I can only do so in my spare time, purely as a hobby as I did back in the early days of the server. I really want to release the RuneLite client and all the newest OSRS content (and some cool custom endgame content of our own), but it's going to take me some time before I can do so.

On the upside, I've decided to take on very few freelance projects the next couple of months, so that I can focus more attention on PkHonor. It does mean I'll have to live off my savings for a bit, but at least I'll be able to bring some updates to this game again without burning myself out by trying to balance it with half a dozen freelance assignments, as I did in the past with all its consequences for my mental health.

30 August Updates: Bugfixes & QoL

by Mike » Fri Aug 30, 2024 12:37 pm

The following bugs have been fixed:
  • Completing easy, medium or hard combat achievements would allow you to get stackable elite clue boxes. Now you can only get stackable clue boxes up to the level of combat achievements you have completed, as was initially intended upon release of the feature (viewtopic.php?p=771012)
  • The dragon hunter crossbow (b) would not display the correct weapon interface (viewtopic.php?p=771052)
  • Switching your prayer from chivalry or piety to burst of strength, superhuman strength or ultimate strength would still leave you with an invisible attack boost while also draining your prayer points (viewtopic.php?p=771010)
  • Quickly switching prayers on and off for some time would delay the draining of prayer for several seconds (viewtopic.php?p=771028#p770913)
  • Ring of suffering (r) and Ring of suffering (ri) charges were lost upon death. This is no longer the case in PvM, although the charges will still be lost in PvP (and the uncharged ring dropped for the killer, viewtopic.php?t=87743)
  • The pirate's hook was being equipped in the shield slot, while it belongs in the gloves slot. This has now been fixed (along with the crabclaw hook for the honors that want to spawn it, or for when we add it in a future update, viewtopic.php?p=771018)
  • When teleporting away from a dwarf multicannon, the cannon would remain in place (and prevent other players from playing risky barrows) if you don't have enough free inventory slots to receive the cannon. Cannons are now immediately removed when teleporting away (viewtopic.php?p=771054)
  • Using the stairs at glacors allowed players to enter the frost dragons lair without having the appropriate portal in their player-owned house. These stairs have now been disabled (viewtopic.php?t=87846)
  • Once you opened the combat achievement interface, you could no longer view (or withdraw) the content of loot keys because both interfaces used to have the same ID
  • Cannons would not fire when a player only has a small amount of cannonballs with them
  • Players were able to have more than one of each of Ghommal's hilts on their account

The following features have been added:
  • When saving a preset, your current pet (if any) will also be saved to the preset. When loading the preset, the pet will be withdrawn from your bank account and automatically start following you around (viewtopic.php?t=80451)
  • Any ammo (arrows/bolts/...) you pick up from the ground will automatically be put into your ammo slot if you have that ammo equipped. This also applies to stackable weapons such as javelins. Note that this does not apply to toxic blowpipe ammo (viewtopic.php?p=771037)
  • When soloing the Theatre of Blood, only one Nylocas Matomenos will now spawn during Verzik Vitur's second phase instead of two (viewtopic.php?t=87584)
  • Completing the Chambers of Xeric in challenge mode now additionally registers a regular Chambers of Xeric completion. This counts toward both your kill count book and combat achievements (viewtopic.php?f=134&t=87781)

Feeling much better and ready to rock

by Mike » Thu Aug 29, 2024 11:58 am

Hi everyone,

After more than two years of battling burn-out and depression, I feel confident to say that I am finally feeling much better. Early July I still had some really bad days, but as the saying goes, the darkest hour comes right before daybreak, and I feel that I'm now finally there. Around that time, I also managed to finally get rid of some of the most burdensome responsibilities in my job, giving me the mental space to finally focus on my passions again.

And my biggest passion is without a doubt PkHonor, as it has been for the past (almost) 15 years.

The most important thing for me right now is making sure I can hold on to my current mental state and to be mindful not to slip back into the old habits that got me into my troubled mental state in the first place (mostly not being able to say no to anyone and not coming up for myself or what I want). However, thanks to the help of professionals, I now have a much better insight in who I am and what my limitations are. I can finally put some things in perspective and be more understanding of myself, who I am and what I am (or am not) comfortable with and that it's okay that some things just aren't easy for me as it is for most others. I shouldn't pressure myself into being what I think people expect of me and not put myself into positions where I don't want to be. Certain things will always remain stressful or uneasy for me, but as long as I am generally feeling mentally fine as I am feeling now, then at least I'll be able to cope with it.

Now, I have several things I'd love to work on. First of all, I want to help Brant finish the RuneLite client that he has spent so much time and effort on. He's done an amazing job, and there are just a few things left to do before we can release it. There will definitely still be some bugs and glitches to work out after the release, but hopefully nothing too major.

After that, there's quite a list of major things I'd love to add. First of all, there's the Tombs of Amascut (ToA) that Raj has already done a great job on. Then there's also group ironman, adding (and/or reworking) endgame content and a major wilderness overhaul. All of it will take time, but we'll get there. I can't give any estimates yet, I can only promise that, unless something catastrophic would happen, they will come to the server one way or another. What things we'll work on first has not yet been decided and will depend on a combination of what we believe the community wants and what we (the developers) feel comfortable with to work on.
