Evidyon should be released Sunday Afternoon Karl's Time (New York)! As stated on Evidyon.com
Be there, and lets get some sweet screenshots taken!
This release will be the real map for Beta and the Final game with actual hunting areas, only the map that is going to be released Sunday will be a very small fraction of what the final map size will be, say 5-10%.

I think we are all stoked and ready, I look forward to seeing ya'll in game.

Yes, your gold will be kept and xp will not change.
Penalty xp and an inventory wipe are the changes that will affect the players.

Penalty xp will be set to zero. So when the level cap is raised to 40 it wont take you forever to work off that insane amount of negative xp that has built up. For me I have -1.3 million xp, would take quite a while to get back to leveling.

The inventory has to be wiped because of weapon level adjustments. Some weapons that are in game now will be higher level weapons in Beta, some weapons will also be made more rare. The point of the weapon wipe is to set everyone back even, so a player that has a rare weapon in Pre-Beta will not be all powerful if that weapon is set to be a super rare weapon in Beta.

Things are still looking good for a release tomorrow. I've got almost everything finished!!

The enchantment system is still incomplete, unfortunately. It is 99% of the way there, I just haven't found a good way to make the power of an enchantment increase with level. It's a pretty complicated problem and I don't have a great solution just yet. On the upside, I don't think this will affect the gameplay too much before I get it fixed =D

Enchantment's increase by level?

that way of enchantments will make higher levels get more powerfull for no reason and you will be deviding high lvls from low lvls, a low lvl group could not possibly kill some high lvl because hed be "All that" and only cause he f.ex has enchantments increasing until he was lvl 50, would be a gap.

besides making enchantments increase by each level is wrong in a game where the players trade/grind/find new weps all the time, you dont need to make it much more complicated than it is... passive non increasing bonuses with percentages, f.ex increase health by 2% of maximum health.(not saying this is a enchantment just an example)
Do not wander alone into the forest, there are worse things than monsters to be found

Release will be within the next two hours. I am done making changes and am compiling the last version right now; all I have to do is finish that (30 minutes or so....the game is pretty big now O.o) then upload, test a connection and we're ready!

Haha you guys are indeed correct, I took down the server so this new update can go up! I've finished recompiling and will start uploading once I've finished upgrading the database.

Glad to hear it =D

So I've finished uploading the new database, but there was a small snafu--when I raised the level cap, I started getting a divide-by-zero error on server startup. The fix requires me to recompile, but it'll be much quicker. Then upload!

Oh a divide-by-zero error eh. Um yeah, I don't know whatchu talkin bout Willis.
