The Entropia Universe servers will be down for an update at 08:00 UTC, with an expected downtime of 2hrs.
After this update, all avatars will be put into the new character creator area on login to create their new avatars. We have assigned additional server resource to support this, though please be patient with any issues and reach out to support if you become stuck or encounter any issues.
“This is one of the most significant updates we have made on the road to Unreal Engine 5. It introduces an entirely new generation of avatars, a new Character Creator, a major Auction rework, a new interactive 3D Map, reworked Chat and Message Center systems, new crosshairs and rifle scopes, extensive graphical improvements, and much more”.
So all of this tomorrow? That’s a lot of new stuff to play with.
I asked a question about this on MA’s original announcement post. I did not get a reply though. With the creation process after the Cryengine update, I found that it was necessary to go in and out of the creation process several times to see how things looked in the actual game.
