(12/02 13:01:05) Claidi Song: All Guilds’ Meeting (AGM) meets from 13:00-13:55 KI on the first Saturday of each month. All KI times correspond to the Mountain Time Zone.

(12/02 13:01:14) Claidi Song: To give each speaker all the time they need, there are

(12/02 13:01:22) Claidi Song: Five Meeting Rules

(12/02 13:01:31) Claidi Song: Usually

(12/02 13:01:37) Claidi Song: However, today some agenda items need more time. So, I am suspending ALL questions until after AGM.

(12/02 13:01:43) Claidi Song: So, the three rules we will follow today? Please:

(12/02 13:01:49) Claidi Song: #1. Keep chatter to a minimum while the speakers are talking. An occasional brief comment or emote is fine, but be respectful and let the speaker finish.

(12/02 13:01:56) Claidi Song: #2. A summary and the chatlog of this meeting will be published within a few days on the Guild of Messengers’ website https://guildofmessengers.org/

(12/02 13:02:09) Claidi Song: To start your own chatlog type: /startlog

(12/02 13:02:16) Claidi Song: #3. I will ask for questions at the end of AGM. Please:

(12/02 13:02:21) Claidi Song: PM the speaker with questions about their presentation.

(12/02 13:02:28) Claidi Song: PM me questions for the speakers who have left earlier. I will try to get the answers in the AGM summary.

(12/02 13:02:40) Claidi Song: So what is December bringing to the Cavern?

(12/02 13:02:55) Claidi Song: First on the agenda, skyisblu has mouth watering information about her next ”Cooking with Sky”.

(12/02 13:03:02) Claidi Song beckons you

(12/02 13:03:02) Claidi Song: Please, come on up to the platform skyisblu!

(12/02 13:03:05) CaptainQuery: yum

(12/02 13:03:20) Eternal Seeker: Clap

(12/02 13:03:37) skyisblu: Hi everybody 😀

(12/02 13:03:42) skyisblu: I want to invite you all to join me this Monday, December 4th at 12 KI, for another cooking session. Since the holiday season is in full swing, I will be making one of my favorite recipes for Christmas cookies, Whipped Shortbread.

(12/02 13:04:05) skyisblu: These cookies are simple, have only 4 ingredients, and are melt-in-your-mouth delicious. Plus, I’ll show you some easy ways to transform them into really beautiful gifts for family and friends, or just to include on your holiday table.

(12/02 13:04:15) IwonK drools

(12/02 13:04:31) skyisblu: Every first Monday of the month, we meet in the Guild of Caterers’ Hood during the livestream, so if you have any questions relating to food, that’s the place to be – I try to keep up with the chatter while I am making a mess in the kitchen.

(12/02 13:04:53) rarified: Take out?

(12/02 13:04:57) skyisblu: The livestream can be found on Twitch here: https://www.twitch.tv/skyisblu_is_me , and I explain my process in both English and French. The recipes and video will also be available afterwards, as well as all the other cooking sessions, at https://cookingsessionswithsky.blogspot.com/

(12/02 13:05:04) Claidi Song starts to laugh

(12/02 13:05:12) Emor D’ni Lap: mmmmmmmbutter

(12/02 13:05:16) skyisblu: Care packages by mail, rarified ? 😉

(12/02 13:05:26) Claidi Song: I vote yes

(12/02 13:05:27) rarified: I’m down for it!

(12/02 13:05:32) skyisblu: And as always, if you have any suggestions for any future cooking sessions, any recipes you want to learn more about or see made, I am always up for a challenge 😉 I hope to see you all on Monday!

(12/02 13:05:42) Murry: Samples?

(12/02 13:05:43) Claidi Song: Thank you, skyisblu!

(12/02 13:05:53) skyisblu thanks you very much!

(12/02 13:06:06) Emor D’ni Lap applauds skyisblu

(12/02 13:06:22) Claidi Song: Next, Michel was going to tell us how the Magic Bots are adding many opportunities for fun in the Cavern.

(12/02 13:06:29) Claidi Song: Unfortunately, Michel was unable to make our later AGM time. So, I will be sharing Michel’s prepared presentation. This will be in Michel’s words.

(12/02 13:06:40) Claidi Song dons her official Michel’s representative hat

(12/02 13:06:46) Claidi Song: Hello friends of the Magic World.

(12/02 13:07:06) Claidi Song: Hello friends of the Magic World.

(12/02 13:07:12) Claidi Song: After 5 years of absence in the cave, I restarted all the bots in my magical worlds.

(12/02 13:07:20) Claidi Song: First of all, MagicBot and MimiBot, the two friends who allow you to perform magical movements and who guide you in magical games specially created to have fun in the cave.

(12/02 13:07:31) Claidi Song: Then, I was able to restart the Fabulous Magic Treasure (FMT) bots.

(12/02 13:07:45) Claidi Song: These are Game Master, Magic Treasure and Mimi Treasure.

(12/02 13:07:55) Claidi Song: These bots are the only ones that can accompany you in the 10 episodes of this adventure game.

(12/02 13:08:05) Claidi Song: They have many hours of thought, puzzles and research in store for you to restore light to the City of Ae’gura.

(12/02 13:08:19) Claidi Song: Then, I was able to restart the big game in 10 episodes: Hidden Treasures.

(12/02 13:08:27) Claidi Song: It is not only an adventure game, searching for hidden treasures but also managing the winnings obtained during this adventure.

(12/02 13:08:40) Claidi Song: In the tenth part of this game, you will even play the role of a private detective, searching for Miss Smith’s stolen jewelry!

(12/02 13:08:53) Claidi Song: Finally, I reopened the Magic High School of Skydiving (MHSS), which introduces any explorer to Aerobatics, thanks to two instructors:

(12/02 13:09:02) Claidi Song: Magic Skydiver and Mimi Skydiver.

(12/02 13:09:09) Claidi Song: They will guide you on the invisible walls of the ages, in a progressive manner.

(12/02 13:09:16) Claidi Song: They will allow you to progress at your own pace and help you get back to where you fell, in order to avoid starting the whole course from the beginning!

(12/02 13:09:23) Claidi Song: This is what takes me the most time because, as you may know, 5 years ago, physics effects were a little different from those now.

(12/02 13:09:34) Claidi Song: I therefore had to review certain jumps on invisible walls, which took a lot of time to modify the texts in French, English and German.

(12/02 13:09:40) Claidi Song: Some masker races have also been modified. Some of them were lost and I had to restore them.

(12/02 13:09:50) Claidi Song: Luckily I kept backups of all my marker sets!

(12/02 13:10:01) Claidi Song: There are currently 46 missions available as well as 5 certificates.

(12/02 13:10:13) Claidi Song: Additionally, there are some special missions performed by other instructor skydivers.

(12/02 13:10:23) Claidi Song: But I won’t stop there, because for 5 years there have been new ages created by fans, which will certainly be the subject of new Skydiving missions!

(12/02 13:10:35) Claidi Song: Additionally, it is very likely that within a few months, the physical effects in Moul:a will be replaced.

(12/02 13:10:46) Claidi Song: So, I will have to see (once again) all of the MHSS Skydiving!

(12/02 13:10:51) Claidi Song: For all commands of my bots, I advise you to go to the Mystpedia Forum which has a French section and an English part.

(12/02 13:10:59) Claidi Song: There you will find all the information concerning the games with my bots.

(12/02 13:11:05) Claidi Song: You can ask, in these places, all the questions concerning magic games.

(12/02 13:11:11) Claidi Song: In addition, I also have a section in the MoulaEvents Discord.

(12/02 13:11:19) Claidi Song: Thanks to Minasunda for giving me a place in this Discord.

(12/02 13:11:28) Claidi Song: There too you can ask me any questions regarding magic games.

(12/02 13:11:41) Claidi Song: I wish you many more magical adventures in the cave and a Merry Christmas!

(12/02 13:11:47) Claidi Song: Thank you for your attention.

(12/02 13:12:01) Eternal Seeker: Clap

(12/02 13:12:24) Lnala: \claps

(12/02 13:12:43) Ro”Jethhe: So much to do and so little time.

(12/02 13:12:56) IwonK: there is always time for cookies

(12/02 13:12:57) Claidi Song: I’d say Michel has found a way to have NPCs and interaction and competition in the Cavern! Impressive

(12/02 13:13:08) rarified: Did someone say COOKIE?!?

(12/02 13:13:10) Ro”Jethhe: Got MAGIC COOKIES?

(12/02 13:13:19) IwonK: just a cookie?

(12/02 13:13:23) IwonK passes around Magic Cookies

(12/02 13:13:26) Claidi Song: Speaking of cookies

(12/02 13:13:32) rarified Poofs.

(12/02 13:13:34) Claidi Song: IwonK is here to draw in our anticipation for her next ”Wonky Talk”.

(12/02 13:13:39) uru348 passes around Magic Milk

(12/02 13:13:43) Claidi Song beckons you

(12/02 13:13:43) Claidi Song: The stage is yours, IwonK!

(12/02 13:14:01) IwonK: I’ll be streaming my Wonky Talk on Friday, December 15th at 15 KI in the Guild of Cookies’ Hood (we sit near the heek table)

(12/02 13:14:11) IwonK: This month’s topic is “Christmas games”! I have some titles in my mind already but if you know any interesting games I could talk about (and draw), feel free to throw them my way 🙂

(12/02 13:14:23) IwonK: join me on my Twitch channel (twitch.tv/yvonk), there will be cookies 🙂

(12/02 13:14:32) IwonK: In other wonky news, I’ve made some games of my own as a gamedev challenge, if you want to check them out, follow this link: iwonk.itch.io

(12/02 13:14:38) IwonK bows

(12/02 13:14:44) Claidi Song beckons you

(12/02 13:14:44) Claidi Song: The stage is yours, IwonK!

(12/02 13:14:50) IwonK: now it’s yours 😀

(12/02 13:14:51) Claidi Song: Thank you, IwonK!

(12/02 13:15:01) Claidi Song: oops

(12/02 13:15:10) Claidi Song: Minasunda has announcements about the upcoming holidays here in the Cavern.

(12/02 13:20:49) shokhootahn Rehn: Also, I use Magic Bot’s (KI #27527) advertisements (when he’s on) to announce last-minute changes to class times.

(12/02 13:21:04) shokhootahn Rehn: You can get those advertisements by adding him as a buddy and then sending him a PM with the word: advert.

(12/02 13:23:03) shokhootahn Rehn: I have one request for visitors: Please do not post pellet points into the Hood imager…

(12/02 13:23:13) shokhootahn Rehn: One of my former students, Yutiel, is listed on that imager. I have refrained from posting pellets to maintain her name at the top as a form of memorial.

(12/02 13:23:23) shokhootahn Rehn: Are there any questions?

(12/02 13:23:46) shokhootahn Rehn: Moving on…

(12/02 13:23:52) shokhootahn Rehn: The second announcement is about r’Taytahn’s Story Night.

(12/02 13:24:14) shokhootahn Rehn: In November, we started the story from the game, Myst IV: Revelation. There are five parts, total. Myst IV will take us through the first weekend of January. This week is story #88 of 104 in the story cycle of the history of D’ni.

(12/02 13:24:32) shokhootahn Rehn: So, there is still plenty of history to go!

(12/02 13:24:43) shokhootahn Rehn: Eventually, we will cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D’ni!

(12/02 13:25:07) shokhootahn Rehn: I am recording Story Night for (eventual) upload to my YouTube channel (rTayrtahn). I have created an avatar for the purpose of recording. His name is “I’m a bot, do not message”. Please do not PM him during the story unless you want to see your message displayed for the entire internet. 😉

(12/02 13:25:35) shokhootahn Rehn: Currently, I am caught up with video compression. Unfortunately, I have a sizable backlog of videos to edit and upload. To my channel subscribers, please be patient; I am slowly working through it and have uploaded a few more videos to the channel. 🙂

(12/02 13:25:44) IwonK: like “hi mom, I’m on the internet!”? 😉

(12/02 13:25:52) Rex Havoc starts to laugh

(12/02 13:26:05) shokhootahn Rehn: lol

(12/02 13:35:36) Murry: It wasn’t me…

(12/02 13:35:45) Calum Traveler: yes, well, i know most people aren’t doing that,

(12/02 13:36:22) Calum Traveler: but some folks have pushed it as an issue, it seems, and it may result in a ban from the convention if that kind of behavior persists.

(12/02 13:36:38) Calum Traveler: OCTOBER’S PROMPT WINNERS!

(12/02 13:38:03) Calum Traveler: frankly we might as well just make that standing policy at this point 😛

(12/02 13:38:27) Claidi Song: holidays?

(12/02 13:38:33) Calum Traveler: Christmas, new years, etc.

(12/02 13:38:57) Calum Traveler: last weds of this month is the 27th,

(12/02 13:40:11) Calum Traveler: this time, Runa’mei, Kura’quen, and Amara’da have joined our intrepid group of explorers for a nice sedate hike through the forests of Eder Naybree,

(12/02 13:40:32) Calum Traveler: oh, wait, what’s this? A pair of scientists seem to have been causing some trouble and may have aroused some petulant ghostly spirits!

(12/02 13:40:38) Calum Traveler starts to laugh

(12/02 13:40:43) IwonK: :>

(12/02 13:48:39) Claidi Song: Thank you Diranda

(12/02 13:48:58) Claidi Song: Darryl Pogue has information for MacOS work & the 3DS Max plugin.

(12/02 13:49:04) Claidi Song beckons you

(12/02 13:49:04) Claidi Song: Welcome to the platform Darryl Pogue

(12/02 13:49:15) Darryl Pogue: !shorah biv, I’ll be quick but just wanted to give a status update on some of the recent development work happening from the H’uru team.

(12/02 13:49:23) Darryl Pogue: Firstly, thanks to some contributions from IntelSpark on Discord over the past few days, the PlasmaMax age creation plugin for 3DS Max now supports 3DS Max 2023 and 2024.

(12/02 13:49:34) Darryl Pogue: PlasmaMax is the 3DS Max plugin written by Cyan for the creation of all their Uru content, and is available as an alternative to Blender and korman for Age builders.

(12/02 13:49:43) Darryl Pogue: You can download the PlasmaMax plugin from the H’uru GitHub page, and we offer downloads from all versions ranging from 3DS Max 7 all the way to 2024.

(12/02 13:49:52) Darryl Pogue: You can find download links and information about building the H’uru client at https://h-uru.github.io/Plasma

(12/02 13:50:10) Darryl Pogue: The other very exciting bit of news is that the Metal rendering system for macOS was merged in to the H’uru client earlier this week.

(12/02 13:50:17) Darryl Pogue: That means it is now possible to compile and run an Uru client on macOS, both Intel and Apple Silicon processors! 😀

(12/02 13:50:33) Darryl Pogue: A huge thanks to maccodemonkey, who spent the past 2 years single-handedly implementing the Metal rendering system and trying to make it match how the game looks with DirectX on Windows.

(12/02 13:50:39) Ro”Jethhe is amazed!

(12/02 13:50:42) Darryl Pogue: Now, there is still some more work that has to be done before a macOS client is ready to be tested, but getting the Metal renderer merged was one of the biggest pieces and means that people can compile a mostly-working client to use for their own local testing on their own local shard — NOT on MOULa!

(12/02 13:50:52) Darryl Pogue: Some of the remaining macOS work is technical (handling display resolutions, handling patching) and some of it is logistical (handling Apple Developer accounts for code signing).

(12/02 13:51:11) Darryl Pogue: When we are ready for a beta test of the macOS client, we will announce it here and on Discord. We are not ready yet 😛

(12/02 13:51:25) Darryl Pogue: Thanks for your time, I’ll try to hang around after for a bit to answer any questions 🙂

(12/02 13:51:27) Darryl Pogue thanks you

(12/02 13:51:32) Claidi Song: Wow! That all sounds wonderful

(12/02 13:51:36) Claidi Song: Thank you, Darryl Pogue

(12/02 13:51:36) Emor D’ni Lap: Massive kudos to maccodemonkey!

(12/02 13:51:47) Emor D’ni Lap applauds dpogue

(12/02 13:51:48) Rex Havoc: Sweet

(12/02 13:51:55) Ro”Jethhe: As Steve Jobs would say, Just one more thing…

(12/02 13:52:12) IwonK: and Think Different 😉

(12/02 13:52:16) Ro”Jethhe nods his head

(12/02 13:52:20) Darryl Pogue: Aww, I should totally have led into the mac client with “and one more thing” lol

(12/02 13:52:21) Claidi Song: News from Age creators:

(12/02 13:52:28) Claidi Song: TikiBear sends word that he and ametist are ready to submit Mirtahm to testing as a ”release candidate” for MOULa.
