Valheim is an Early Access release, but done right, this itself is a rare case. Valheim is something of true beauty, even though the art style is simplistic and some may see that as 'low quality', it really suits the playstyle of the game as a whole. The strange mix of Playstation One textures and current day AAA styled lighting and environment effects works quite well, Valheim is a strange mix of pre-existing games such as Ark, Minecraft, World of Warcraft (but not on an MMO kind of level, just graphics wise) and it seems to have completely hit the metaphorical nail on the head. Building in Valheim is a breeze once you get the hang of its sometimes finicky 'snap points', when you do you can build anything you desire so long as you have proper structural support for your build(s). If you fail to properly support you building(s) then you will notice it start to fall down right infront of your eyes - however you do get the resources back when it's destroyed from collapse which is a bonus and allows you to keep on building with just a few seconds to adjust your tactics on your build to provide proper support. I personally find it better to build a skeleton structure before you append the outer walls/doors/windows/chimneys as it gives you a better feel for how the internal layout will be. There is a catch with the building though, a Workbench is required and can be tedious to encase the entire build area within the 'safezone' of a workbench so you might need to build a few Workbench's around your build to fully encapsulate the work area. A Workbench also requires its own enclosure (roof and walls required for crafting but NOT FOR BUILDING). The Boss system is something not to be taken light heartedly at all, however - said Bosses do not come into play until you (and your team) want them to, so you have control of the progression in Valheim. You must collect items to summon each Boss in the game world at their respective shrines. Once you have defeated each boss you will collect a trophy that you can then get special abilities from once you have placed the trophy upon the shrine which can be activated upon request. more to come...

Things around here have been slapped together half haphazardly and are in serious need of some tender love and care to reflect the vision of Realm of ConsKrypt and over the coming weeks you will notice that things have been changed, features will be removed/added as some things are not required any more. New sections will open up which will eventually replace the content here that will be removed to allow a greater opportunity for me to give members access to more services that I will provide such as but not limited to; Custom artwork for social media - Emoticons for Twitch/YouTube channels. - Banner art for Twitch/YouTube/Twitter/Facebook etc. - Avatars for Twitch/YouTube/Twitter/Facebook etc. - Promotional artwork for clients. Custom video sequences for social media - High quality intro video sequences. - High quality transitions for streaming software/video sequences. - Other high quality video sequences - (Be Right Back/Troubleshooting/Stream Starting/Stream Ending etc..) Custom artworks (Hand Drawn) High quality conversions - Getting 3D models 'game ready' for certain games with minimal loss to quality at as low polygon counts as possible for the game(s) in question. Conversion from render models from third party sources such as Humster3D, TurboSquid or other sources. + Supported games are currently; Grand Theft Auto V (FiveM included), BeamNG.Drive (Humster3D models are not valid due to licensing requirements for BeamNG) and eventually Assetto Corsa. Custom modeling - Modeling of real/fictional vehicles and vehicle parts/addons. - Modeling of environment (Trees, plants etc). - Modeling of buildings and fixtures. There are no set prices at the current moment for the planned types of work involved, however there will be a full in-depth list of prices and services available soon to explore. There will still be FREE Game Ready models and conversions available and any custom works remain private to the order. Completed works are not made available until the balance owed for the works has been satisfied in full.

Recently I have been contacted to do some work on a FiveM project which has taken up all the spare time I would usually spend on vehicle development/refinement for the various games I target. This does not mean the projects listed in the previous post are abandoned or anything like this, it just means they are for now, placed on the "lower priority" list. I cannot give an estimate as to when any work will be done on any of the models progress listed in the previous post but will ensure I get around to posting updates whenever I'm able to spend some time on one of the many existing projects on my plate. I will release more information about this FiveM project as it evolves from a development phase into an "alpha" stage - which should not be all that far off.

All commands listed here are used the same way with all Social Media modules. Depending on which platform you interact with ConsPiracy with will depend upon what is returned in regards to information without extra arguments being appended to the command. Basic Information About Commands: All modules respond to commands that are prefixed with a period, for example; .help will return all commands available to your permission level on the selected platform(s).

At current you have seen the R8 in game already in its pre release form, which had its issues... Main one being the lack there of functional interior. While the vehicles exterior is stunning to say the least and not to toot my own horn, but the interior aspect was where I was stumped up until recently. I have now obtained a proper interior by means of extracting the meshes from Forza models. Among this the entire exterior is also getting a much desired facelift to fix the slight issues made apparent when used in pre-release phase by the people chose as testers. Soon there will be a more thorough showcase type post where there will be more information provided and as to what is left to do before it is ready to hit the next phase of conversion. As Progress Is Made, More Information and Media will be made available to reflect the progress reported - stay tuned!

SERVER DOWN FOR MOD COMPATIBILITY ERROR(S) Yesterday an attempt to update the server to match the latest release from the development team did not go as planned and has rendered the server in what is known as a "boot loop". The reasons for the boot looping scenario is due to a modification used which is now incompatible with the current server software version and it requires the mod author to release a fix to launch the server again safely without the risk of world/builds becoming corrupted. Sure the mod(s) causing the issue(s) could be removed but I am unsure how this will affect how the current state of peoples builds and such so until further notice it unfortunately is down for maintenance and will return once a suitable patch for the mod(s) in question has surfaced.

Recently I contacted a good friend for some hosting of ATLAS and thanks to him we now have an ATLAS server (2x2 seamless grid)! This mad cunt goes by the name of @Darkmyre and without his assistance this wouldn't have been possible for a little while yet, I am still in the works of obtaining some servers of my own (physically own the servers myself is what I am after) and hopefully up until this point his assistance will remain to be there although I do understand if it impacts his other services in any way shape or form we will unfortunately have to pull the plug or scale back the server some to ease up the burden, essentially we have added the load of another 4 servers in total to get this adventure underway so its not like its just a single server instance that you can pay a host for, its 4 individual servers running as one, which is how ATLAS works, 1 server operates 1 grid, so to get the 2x2 we require 4 servers... I know this is a pain to have this kind of setup but in reality its kind of beneficial as certain grids can be restarted at different intervals meaning players can remain in the game essentially 24 hours a day 365 days of the year if they really desired so long as they were not in a grid that requires a restart. At this time, we are not releasing the details of the server due to setup phase and testing certain modifications out but in due time I will remove the password requirement. Server will remain PvE for the mostpart, might make one grid PvPvE so its optional IIRC. Although its PvE, Friendly Fire should be on so dont take it out on your crewmates too harshly, you may just find yourself murdering them just to show them a lesson by mistake. Now onto the issues and shit I have experienced since playing ATLAS again. The UI Frames: Still looks exact same as ARK, needs more pirate less Generic feel to it... The UI Text: HORRIBLE absolutely horrid to try read, seems to give me slight headaches.... Please give an option for a normal text.... Slow: Everything about this is slow, the time it takes the main menu to show from lauch, the time it takes to change to loading screen when pressing join, the time it takes to transition again to game from loading when its just a black screen.... the only way I know that the client has not yet decided to freeze and not gain any more progress is by watching task manager Disk Use for ATLAS..... The Grind Is Real: Everything in the game is so expensive to craft.... I get it, its aimed as a MMO.... but really it should be in scale with the size of the total game world as to how much shit should cost in resources...... Even at x5 Gather Rates.... still feels somewhat grindish even though you are reaping way more then you should. Animals are stupid: Here you are cutting down a tree then the next thing you know a horse or worse a passive-aggressive creature decides its a fucking brilliant idea to walk into your axe swing path..... Congratulations, you are awarded a battle! Server takes forever to actually load, so its not just the client that takes what feels like an age to load..... There are much more issues that I am sure I can list but I really don't want to seem picky for the remainder of things as they are not really gamebreaking or anything just annoying more then anything..... Keep watch of this thread for more updates regarding my discoveries, both good and bad.
