Still finalizing the warfare achievements, so in the mean time we have some gold paint for use on items added to the platinum store. Once an item is painted it is permanently changed and will retain its new color even if traded. The name of the item will change to something like 'Gold Crystal Sword' as will its graphics.

We may add more colors in the future (speak to bcfcespley) along with paint remover. Also coming later today is a second smiley pack DMaster has been working on.

Going to be away for a few days, I'm at a LAN party this week-end anyway but waiting for a Sky engineer to come fix my Internet connection. Think the router has died but Sky being Sky they will not allow people to use 3rd party routers. Connecting through my cell phone is really slow.

Working on resolving the issue with multiple spectral items spawning right now.

Ok, so I think warfare achievements won. I'll be working with Ross and bcfcespley to get those finished, I thought we were closer to being ready with them than we actually are so may take a little longer than planned. Keep an eye on bcfcespley's thread in the main forums if you want to have your say on how they will work!

Ok, so here is a fun experiment. I'm going to list the major projects I currently have on my "To Do List" baring in mind my list is like 30+ items long of varying scale. This list is in the order I intended to do them, post in comments which you most want to see. Whichever gets the most votes I will drop everything, work on right now, and get finished before any of the others.

o New Abilities for Avatars (2 weeks)
o AJAX based Combat System (4 weeks)
o Moving Guards (Kind of requires the combat system though) (4 weeks)
o Level 80 - 90 NPCs and Tier 2 Avatar items (1 week)
o Warfare Achievements (2 weeks)

These are the 5 major things on my list, the current plan is to do them in that order. The time in weeks is how long I think they would take, baring in mind my estimates are normally way off but it gives some idea for comparison.
