Hello everyone! 👋

We are excited to announce that our client, after seven months of intense development, is finally ready to be put into production! 🚀

This groundbreaking update brings numerous improvements, bug fixes, and optimizations, making the client more powerful than ever! 💪✨

🔄 Changes to Note:

• The current T4C client will be replaced by a new executable named "T4C.exe". 📥

• Shortcuts in the Start Menu and on the Windows desktop will be automatically updated. 🖥️

• When you first run the new executable, it will automatically convert your T4C data to the new formats with no action required on your part. 🛠️🔄 Then, a launcher will open to allow you to connect to the game. 🎮

  On your first connection:

• The launcher will download the new client. ⬇️

• It will automatically clean up obsolete files. 🧹

🚨 Important Points to Report on Discord:

• Data Conversion Errors: An error may occur due to different file formats used over the years. 🗃️⚠️

• Connection Issues: You might see an error message if there's a blockage to the update servers or if there's a problem with your Internet connection. 🌐🔒

• Bugs: Any new bugs encountered should be reported. 🐞🔧

For issues not related to game development (such as account loss, password issues, etc.), please contact our support at: dev.t4c.com or www.t4c.com. 📧

📅 Update Date:

• The update is scheduled for early next week. 📆

💀 Abomination:

• The wipe will indeed take place on July 26, 2024. However, the server opening might be slightly delayed by one or two days. ⏳🔜

We want to express our sincere gratitude to our testers. Their contribution has been essential in reaching this point, and their hard work has greatly facilitated this update. A huge thank you to all of you! 🙌💖

Thank you for your patience and support! We can't wait to see you in the game with this brand-new experience! 🎉👾

We have some fantastic news to share! 🎉

After addressing the major issues with the T4C client, we can now offer an improved refresh rate for a smoother and more enjoyable gaming experience. 🚀

🔧 Testing Phase: This new feature is currently in the testing phase. While initial results are promising, we have not yet fully validated this option.

⚙️ Refresh Rate Options: If you uncheck the two specific options, you will be automatically reverted to 16 FPS mode. Don’t worry, this option will always remain available for those who prefer the nostalgic experience! 🌟

🙏 A huge thank you to all the members of our community who are actively participating in testing and bug fixing by playing countless hours on the development client. Your dedication is invaluable and greatly helps in improving our game! ❤️

Stay for more updates and continue to keep T4C alive with us! ✨

⚠️ Warning ⚠️: Abomination will be shut down and wiped on 07/26/2024. 🗓️

🔜 We will post more information about the new settings and release date at a later time. Stay tuned for updates! 🔧🆕

Thank you for your understanding, and see you soon for more news! 🚀

Since mid-January 2024, we have enthusiastically resumed the development of T4C! The project no longer has a specific name, as abbreviations of all kinds are now unnecessary. 🚀

To follow the project's progress, there is only one URL to remember: https://dev.t4c.com/. 🌐

🛠️ Over the past few months, we have worked intensively on the client to make it much more stable than before, and many bugs have been fixed. However, further corrections will also require significant modifications to the server.

✨ That's why we have decided to release the first version of the client in development within a few weeks, so players can benefit from the latest fixes.

🧪 Next, Abomination will become a public test server where the next versions of the game in development will be updated in real-time (this will likely involve wipes from time to time). The Abomination server will also be adjusted for simplified settings: faster leveling, fewer item losses, etc.

This will allow players to progress quickly and report any remaining issues so we can resolve them as much as possible.

🎨 After this crucial phase, we will start exploring possibilities for the graphics engine and implementing new visual content. But all these new features will be added once the game is finally stable.

🙏 We greatly thank all the participants in the numerous tests. Your help is invaluable in improving the game! 💪

Join us and follow our journey! 🌟

Hello everyone,

We are excited to share significant progress on our client development. As of now, only a handful of warnings remain in the code (~130), with the majority having been addressed through an extensive rewrite of the functionalities.

These efforts aim to maximize the stability of our client. Test results show notable improvements, indicating that we are moving in the right direction, although we have not yet achieved complete satisfaction.

We remain committed to continuing our work to ensure an optimal user experience.

Crashes appear to have been resolved, and we hope that the newly conducted tests on this version of the client will confirm that lags after long, intensive gaming sessions (over 2 hours) no longer occur.

Thank you for your continued support and patience during this development period.

Three weeks ago, we informed you of a 15-day extension for client testing. We have successfully met this deadline, as one week ago, we initiated the tests with a larger team of testers.

This team has fully committed to their work and has identified bugs, thereby contributing to the enhancement of the product quality.

As I write these lines, there are still some minor corrections to be made to the DDAs, as well as the most concerning issue: the infamous black screen. The random nature of this bug, along with the difficulty in reproducing it, makes the debugging process very complex. The team is fully focused on this matter. We do not want to repeat past mistakes and prefer to address known issues before seeking validation from Dialsoft for the client release.

The bugs that will persist at the moment are those related to the server, which will be the team's next priority. However, before making any server code changes, we need to ensure that all server operating teams can continue to function with the work we are undertaking. We will dedicate time to assist the teams in this migration without hindering their development.

We will strive to keep you informed more regularly about the progress of the various projects.

In order to definitively clarify the old projects and avoid any confusion among the Discord members, the name T4C Next is being removed. It will simply be replaced by T4C.

The presence of names such as T4C-Dev, T4C Next, T4C Mouse, T4C Mestoph, MT4C, ... is completely unnecessary and prone to confusion among the members.

It is not uncommon to notice that some members of this Discord server confuse the old projects or less serious projects with what is currently underway.

The T4C Next website will also be renamed shortly. Regarding the domain, I have asked Mouse to create dev.t4c.com and next.t4c.com will remain as a redirection to dev.t4c.com.

As a reminder, the old projects have been abandoned. The purpose of the project is to modernize the T4C game and to have all the necessary tools for the various innovations that will be integrated into the game in the future.

So... Farewell T4C Next and Long Live T4C!

Testing Period and Status Update

The 15-day testing period will end on Sunday. Here's a brief progress update: Since Mestoph's latest fixes, testers have exclusively been using Althéa with this new client. Feedback has been positive, and very few new bugs have been reported. The last reported bug dates back to Monday.

Stability and Extension of the Testing Period

However, a stability issue persists: a client crash whose cause is difficult to identify. Testers are intensifying their efforts to pinpoint the causes of this crash. This issue forces us to postpone the originally scheduled end date of the test to Sunday. We prefer to extend this testing period by 15 days to address these remaining known issues.

A Personal Message

For this first publication on my behalf, I wanted to address you with a slightly more personal message. Most of you may not know me or have never heard of this pseudonym. I used to be a player on GOA (like many others) on Feyd-Ehlan, where I had some excellent moments. Like many, I was captivated by the richness of the game, and although the graphics weren't spectacularly 3D, the gameplay and building possibilities remain unique in the realm of video games.

This gaming experience inspired me to make it my profession, and here I am, a developer for a few years now. A few years ago, nostalgia for T4C led me to wander around Mémoria and then Neerya. What drives me today is to develop and improve things. Given that the development team prioritizes total transparency, I wanted to do the same. I had already tried to contribute to T4C in 2004/2005, but unfortunately, the experience I had with the team in place at the time didn't allow me to bring what I had hoped for. I'm not judging anyone by saying this; I'm simply sharing my feelings.

For a few weeks now, I've come across this updated website and the posts of a developer whom I knew by reputation. Their enthusiasm and the sharing of ongoing work have instilled in me a real passion for this project, led by a team that starts from scratch and doesn't just think about its own promotion. I contacted them via private message, we were able to exchange, and today I'm given the chance to prove myself to help this amazing team and the server development teams.

You may not realize the amount of work that has been done by the development team over the past few weeks. The foundations have been revisited on the client to start afresh. For example, a bug with checkboxes revealed code issues that required an 80% recoding to ensure everything now works correctly and optimally (within the limits of the graphics engine, of course). We commit to keeping you informed of the progress of the work as often as possible.

See you soon!

We're pleased to announce that a new bug tracker has been launched.
