1.127 Pendragon Test-Server Patch Notes

Posted by John Thornhill | 2020 Jul 29 12:08 -0400 GMT
The Pendragon test server is now open for testing!

Please hop on and test our latest changes and leave us your detailed feedback! Our live launch of patch 1.127 is just around the corner and the more testing and feedback we receive the better it will be!

Important Note:
  • We highly suggest duplicating your game directory and using the duplicate copy as a Pendragon-only game directory *before* patching and testing on Pendragon.
    • ​This means duplicating the entire "Labyrinth" folder (usually found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Labyrinth) to another location and using that copied folder exclusively for Pendragon testing.
    • ​If you do not do this, you *will* experience issues when patching from Pendragon back to live.
      • To force the live client to fix these issues, you will need to delete the mft.myp in your game's directory and then run the camelot.exe patcher again.
For those interested in testing on Pendragon, follow the character copy process here!

Time for another Grab Bag!

Work and testing on patch 1.127 continues with some exciting market explorer search improvements, new housing models and textures, Endless Conquest tweaks, tons of bug fixes, and more coming soon! We also want to remind folks that House Repossession for account inactivity will be re-enabled with 1.127 (not house rent!). Anyone with a currently condemned house and an active account needn't worry though, their house will be fixed to show the correct, active state when the patch comes out and we'll give an additional 3-day grace period for any houses that are meant to be repossessed. More details to come with the test server notes in the coming weeks!
