  • 13:21 PSA - We're aware of a couple of issues around graphical glitches surrounding NPC's, them appearing in different areas and crashes. Please try avoid teleporting too much right now and avoid any dangerous areas for the time being. We're looking into this now and will keep you all updated!
  • We are aware of an issue with feeding the Dinosaurs for propellant, while this is being reviewed please refrain from crafting the propellant as it will not be created correctly.

I've chased this, (but it's currently lower priority than the NPC strangeness that's happening.)

Of note there's probably a work around (this only seems to happen if your account is in an odd state) - if you change male->female at the makeover mage (or in wardrobe) then back you should be able to activate the override.

No problem, could you DM me over your IGN, and i'll check why the workaround isn't working for you specifically

Evening Scapers,

Our technical team continues to investigate the ongoing issues causing some NPCs to appear in unintended spaces (We swear its not a weirdly well timed April fools thing) that may cause a crash to desktop.

There will not be a solution to this applied this evening as current resolutions are likely to require a coldfix and restart of the servers.

We would ask players to continue taking precaution around dangerous situations and avoiding them where possible. We will continue keep you posted if any changes arise. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

This list has been passed along to the team but no ETA on if or when this may be applied.
