Producer’s Letter: 2023 First Half Upcoming Contents



Dear Milletians,

After the release of the New Beast updates and Arcana talents, we are happy to see Mabinogi flourishing with new and returning faces. We feel the excitement and passion from our loyal Milletians, too. We’ve been reviewing your feedback on these updates and appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us. If you haven’t already, please tell us what you think! Share with us on Discord by joining the discussion with the community or check out the Arcana Feedback Thread.

This year, we have more updates to come. We’d like to share a high level overview of some upcoming contents to be expected in the first half of this year. Please look forward to the following updates:

Masterpiece Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 Update, recently released in January
  • Replay ability for Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 Generations.
  • Changes to some NPC interactions and permanent NPCs in Avalon. 
  • New replay reward boxes and Jukebox songs.
64-bit Client Update
  • To improve game performance and reduce memory issues, we will implement the 64-bit client update. Please check out the dedicated notice for more details about this change.
Mabinogi's 15th Anniversary
  • With events, fun rewards, GM shenanigans and more, we hope to celebrate 15 years of Mabinogi with all Milletians.
Quality of Life Improvements

Improvements to several game features are being prepared this year. We are excited to share some of the changes, including:
  • New Dressing Room categories for Chairs and Accessory items, including halos and support puppets.
  • New Accessory slot added to the Style tab for halos and support puppets.
  • Improvements to the Dye Ampoule system for ease of finding that perfect color code.
  • Improved production gathering distance so you don’t have to chase those potatoes down!
  • The Tara Auction House will be updated with new wares for auction soon.
  • The Adventurer Seal system and shop will be renewed with new items.
  • New Dungeon features, such as re-entry to Tech Duinn missions and craftable Avon mission passes.
  • Enchant improvements to make highly successful enchantments more effective while reducing the penalty of huge failure.
  • And more!
NEXT Step Up!

To help new and returning Milletians to progress through to higher levels, we’re making a few changes intended to improve the performance limit of intermediate equipment and make reforging tools more accessible.
  • In an effort to improve the phenomenon where you stay with the Celtic or Divine weapons for too long while struggling to get better equipment, Celtic Symbol and Divine Symbol items will be introduced to bridge the gap between these weapons and advanced equipment.
  • We plan to add Beginner’s Reforging Tools obtainable through playing dungeons, so that you can obtain reforging tools and try out limited reforging options with less stress. 
  • These changes may not completely resolve current issues, but we hope it will become natural to try and experience various options before reaching a higher level, and help newer Milletians to smoothly move on to the later game stages.
Renovation Season 4

Changes to skills for Humans, Elves, and Giants will bring improvements to combat.
  • Improvements will be made for Archery skills, including race specific skills.
    • Elven Magic Missile, Mirage Missile, Final Shot, and Human’s Arrow Revolver.
    • Ranged Attack, Magnum Shot, Crash Shot, and Urgent Shot.
    • Throwing Attack will also see an improvement.
  • Improvements for Giant skills, including Taunt, Stomp, Final Strike, and Giant Full Swing.
  • Minor improvements for several Magic skills will be added.

Although the mentioned contents are in the current pipeline, depending on testing and development plans, the plan could change. More information regarding confirmed content will be shared in our regular Update posts and Patch Notes! As always, we thank you for your support and love for Mabinogi.

Sincerely,
GM Mewlynne
Mabinogi Producer

[COMPLETED] Scheduled Maintenance - February 2nd, 2023



Mabinogi 64-bit Client Update



Hello Milletians!

In an upcoming maintenance, we will be implementing our 64-bit Client Update. We highly recommend that you update your Mabinogi game clients, but this does not require a full re-install of the game when upgrading to the 64-bit Client.

With the February update, Mabinogi's game client will be upgraded to 64-bit, enabling improved performance on modern systems and to help us support Mabinogi long into the future. As part of this update, Mabinogi will no longer be playable on 32-bit (x86) operating systems.
[h2]Why Upgrade to a 64-bit Game Client?[/h2]
Mabinogi on 32-bit was limited in its memory usage, depending on the needs of the operating system. With the change to 64-bit, it will allow the Mabinogi client to use more memory and improve client performance in various memory-intensive situations. It has been a recurring issue that any Mabinogi client exceeding more than 4GB of memory during normal gameplay would result in memory allocation failure, ultimately resulting in client crashes. In order to avoid such problems, the transition to 64-bit client may improve overall service quality. 

While the 64-bit client will improve some client performance issues, please keep in mind that it will not resolve every issue you may have encountered previously.
[h2]How can I learn what Operating System I have?[/h2]
If you are unsure of what sort of operating system you have running on your PC, you can find out in the "About Your PC" System Setting page:
  • Use the Windows key to bring up the Start Menu, and click on the Gear icon to open up the settings.
  • Under "System" menu, select "About" at the bottom of the sidebar.
  • Look under "System type", which will tell you which type of operating system and processor you have.


It should show one of three possible options:
  • 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor: No changes required, your computer is already set-up and good to go!
  • 32-bit operating system, x64-based processor: Your computer's operating system is still 32-bit, however your system's processor is able to support a 64-bit operating system. In order to play Mabinogi after the update, you will need to upgrade your operating system to a 64-bit version.
  • 32-bit operating system, x86-based processor: Unfortunately, your computer is not able to support a 64-bit operating system, and will not be able to run Mabinogi after this update.
[h2]Updated Sound Library[/h2]
Finally, with the future update, Mabinogi's sound library will also be updated. The sound library (MSS) used in the existing 32-bit client will be replaced with FMOD. When it came to the previous sound library, it was difficult to provide a stable environment when loading high-quality sound sources or loading sound sources of multiple instruments at once. As a result, the addition of an updated sound library will further reinforce "sound", one of the indispensable facets of Mabinogi. We will continue to strive to provide audio content that will satisfy all Milletians in the future.

Thank you for your continued support and patience!
