Will this be automatically enabled on Singleplayer? If not, there isn't really a way to enable it, at least on Console. Actually there is now go to local/host then select the advanced tab and scroll all the way down and you will see a bar that says "Active Event" and in the description it says "Name of the Event" e.g WinterWonderland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were only catering for EST they wouldn't be running it twice at a more convenient time for others. Edited December 31, 2020 by GP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AesirNeoArcadia Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 For those hosting their own servers using ASM, here's what you'll want to drop into your ADMINISTRATION tab: The first epoch time is set to 00:01 CST Jan 1, 2021, and the second is 12:00 CST Jan 1, 2021. You can change these using the epoch converter provided in WC's post: https://www.epochconverter.com/ ?NewYear1UTC=1609480860?NewYear2UTC=1609524000 If you're bare-hosting, drop this into your game.ini: -NewYearEvent?NewYear1UTC=1609480860?NewYear2UTC=1609524000 I believe this should work the same for Singleplayer, but don't quote me on it. Most people I know will use ASM to host their SP experience, since it gives you far greater control over the game versus the built-in tools 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St1ckyBandit Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Catering to EST? I'd much rather have it at 9pm like on the west coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's one guy on my server who will swoop in and steal present drops right out from under you even if you were already there waiting. People have been at the edge of war about it This always happens with raptor claus. We had an event just after official started (start of the end of legacy) where all regular drops became Xmas drops at night. Everyone got stuff and it was glorious. No arguing or BS just presents. Including hairstyles, bps, gear, saddles, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including hairstyles, bps, gear, saddles, etc... See that would actually make sense. Raptor Claus as it exists just makes people hate the other players on their server because it's always a few greedy jerks using manas or skiffs to steal the drops from people who got there first and/or were waiting on the ground. Heck the first night of the event one of them got under me with his mana and jumped into the air so I'd fall to my death. Adding holiday loot items (even at a reduced rate) to normal drops during the event would make things more fair so everyone could have a chance to get something other than frustration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theshinydino Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 On abberation will the drops spawn on the surface or just across the map? Because if they spawn on the surface there is a chance it could be daytime and abberation players will have no accsess to the drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumackay Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Got it to work the second time by setting the in game time to midnight. Fireworks, check. Metric ton of gifts, check. Surely it can't be that it has to actually line up with midnight on server times to work... Edited January 1, 2021 by Rumackay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen00 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Okay, as usual it seems they screwed up. Here (in the community post) they say "Midnight EST and Noon EST on the 1st of January 2021", but in-game it says 11:30 PM EST (Dec1) and 12 PM EST (Jan1) Also apparently the presents only drop in a undisclosed location, so only those who actually knew about that part got any presents on the live servers. It was not a server wide event as we're led to believe here. Nor did they actually tell anyone in-game (at least on The Island servers) about this. So in conclusion, the community team and the dev team are both at ass-ends of the planet from each other with only a broken tin-can phone to communicate as they can't get anything right between them.

mafisher79 Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Well by the time the server came back the presents had despawned. 1-2 lucky people managed to grab some before they vanished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
