No fur tex on these & the masks are still WIP.
This is the -most likely- final edit of the canine model in general.

The body will be made longer soon so hopefully that makes the legs look a little better If not I'll mess with them too. Feedback is important so we can make the models look perfect so don't be afraid to point out anything that looks wrong/weird

Old News / New Game F.A.Q (UPDATED) 12th October

« on: June 13, 2014, 08:09:45 AM »

What will this new game include and what will be changed?
We have a lot planned for the new game - some of the basics being new items, new quests, new maps, new playable models, etc. All current maps, prey and items will be removed to make room for all new unique content. One of the most exciting things will be new playable models, we are confirmed to have Feline, Canine and Equine. Some new features which have been confirmed are new Quest Missions(such as exploring maps), Map Making tools, Custom Map availability, Pet Menu for all your chars(meaning you can have more than 1 pet), Fur Texture selection, Multiple Markings layers, Currency System(no held items/medals required), Player vs Player(in specific maps), Item Finding(meaning you will be able to find items on the ground, not just hunt for them) and plenty more.

When is this new game expected to be released?
We started working on the new game in April 2014 and have no predicted release date. We currently have a Alpha version that is available to staff and helpers only.

Will the staff remain the same?
Half of the team will be moving to the new game and half will be staying with Last Moon. New people will be hired for the new game and LM so keep an eye on the news & staff application sections.

Can I help with the new game even though I'm not staff?
Of course! In fact, please do! Click here for more information on what you can help us with.

Can I have more information on the new 'playable models' please?
We have multiple people working on the playable models although if you have any questions or concerns, contact RakshaWw about them.
The new game will be released with at least Canine, Feline & Equine models although we do plan on eventually making other animals.

What's this about 'Donation Packs'?
Servers do need to be paid for and at this point in time the server owner, Myz, is the only one funding it. To help him with that so we can always have Last Moon and the new game online we might give players the option to purchase Donation Packs which will include donators only ingame features such as unique items, ranks and possibly even special privileges such as a Teleport command.
Donation Packs have not yet been confirmed although it's a big possibility.
Donation Packs would be released around the same time as the game.

Will any new coded features be added?
That's all up to Myz since he is the coder. The staff and players can suggest new features although it is up to him whether or not that gets implanted. Go PM him or make a thread with suggestions if you'd like!

What will happen to my preset? Can I remake my preset and resubmit it?
Current presets will be deleted since the new playable models will have new UV maps making the presets already in game useless.
Presets will be a donator or contest winner only thing. People who have previously paid for a preset will not have to pay again(same goes for size changes).

Will there be an account reset? Will I lose all my items, pets & medals?
No, we have decided to keep Last Moon as it is and make a new game.

What will the feline models look like?
You can find updates on the models on the forum. Keep an eye on the updates & news section.

Thread updated June 13th, ignore the created date

Hello everyone,
This is the new Official 'Last Moon' forum. Myz has actually purchased this web address so it's not only a forum, we have a whole website set up! Such as a proper Downloads page, Staff page, etc.
And to answer one of the first questions you may have... we have a .org website because .com was taken lol

I hope you like the setup of the forum - after a lot of discussion and debate, the staff have decided to give this website a dark space theme instead of the brighter style that the old forum had(your feedback/ideas would be great!).
We have also cut down the amount of boards as well. It makes the forum look much more small and organised. If you think we have missed an important board, let us know and we'll look into adding it.


In case some of you are interested, these are the forum posting ranks

I will not tell you how many posts are required to earn those ranks Just note that the last 3 (Eclipse, Nebula & Cosmos) may get you some ingame prizes once you have them. I will not say what the prizes are although I will say they will be very rare because these 3 ranks do require a lot of posts and you all know that single word posts, spam, etc is not tolerated so these ranks need to be earned over time!

Another thing I'm sure you're all interested in finding out more on is the new playable models that will be released in the new version of the game.
I can now 100% confirm that there will be completely new, made from scratch canine & feline playable models! These models have been made by Kino. RakshaWw will be making additional body parts such as ears, manes & tails, Forests will be doing the canine fur, Zaroque is doing the feline fur and willing staff members will be doing markings. So we're all working really hard on these models and hope you enjoy them They're all WIP at the moment(canine is 90% done, feline 50% done at the time of writing this) so your feedback, comments & opinions about them would be great.

These models are very low poly meaning they should not cause any lag!
Also, currently in the character creator you choose the head you want. In the update you will choose the ears you want! And the ears move in animations & emotes!
The UV map is very simple compared to the current ones so making presets will be much easier. Also, the UV map is all on one image so instead of making a head tex, tail tex etc you can just make a single texture that has all the body parts on it. This will make preset files a lot smaller.

Weather & Improved Graphics
If you have liked us on Facebook, you would have seen these images of LMs new sky, shading/lighting & terrain.



The game also has a new GUI layout, I won't post images at this time as it is not complete yet. The chat is now taking up less space & all the buttons under the Attack/HP bar have all been merged into a single Actions button(shot key G) which comes up with a menu to open your Emotes/Animations, Quests, Friends List, etc.

One last thing.. Staff Demotion, Promotion & Information.
As said before, staff will remain the same - no one is being fired just because we're changing a heap of things. If you notice a staff member is no longer on the list, they have been removed for other reasons. Rimisa has been moved up from Global Admin to Co-Owner. Zaroque has been moved up from Forum Admin/Global Mod to Admin. Joshtiger has been promoted to Developer. Shamboro has been promoted to Developer. Everyone else remains the same as they were.
We've also shortened down the staff ranks. Previously, we had ranks such as Global Admin, Game Admin, Forum Admin, etc, it has now been changed so there's only a single 'Admin' group. All Admins have powers both on forum & ingame.
We may also be hiring more Forum Mods & Map/World Developers & Mesh(3D Models) Developers soon so keep an eye on the Staff Applications board.

That's about it at this point!
The update is expected to be released around the end of July.
You can find more information on the update & ask questions on the F.A.Q.
