4 STORIESREIMAGINED
The isles of Iveria

The world
Between sea and crystal.

Island world with coasts, forests and a sailing ship
Mainland and island world in progress

Iveria is the continent the goddess Leah shaped from light and depth. Two realms fight over her legacy: disciplined Valorien and knowledge-hungry Derion. Between them lies the contested middle, in the north neutral Gor. The world is currently being rebuilt into an island world with coasts and harbours.

Realms and regions

Two realms, one neutral city – and the sea between them.

Valorien: castle with red roofs above green hills
Realm of the west

Valorien

"Honour, order, lion". The kingdom in the west (nation 0) under the Lion King Neban Maha: the legion, grey stone castles, crimson banners with a golden lion. New Valorians start in Horusland at the Lonbaley training camp; the capital is Keter, the harbour Kokuma on the west coast.

Gor: market lane of the neutral trading city
Neutral in the north

Gor

The neutral trade metropolis with Harmony Plain and Tebekut Castle. The Bridge of Oaths may only be crossed unarmed – in Gor everyone is a customer, not an enemy. (in progress)

Derion: hall with a glowing crystal dome
Realm of the east

Derion

"Knowledge, freedom, sword and sorcery". The empire of magic in the east (nation 1) under Emperor Ruard Lopesa: magic knights and scholars, carved golden wood, azure and violet banners. New Derions start in Yesod at the Kuznez outpost; the capital is Malkuth, the harbour Rekman on the east coast.

Tiphereth – the contested middle

Fertile middle land, border and holy site at once. This is where the realms clash.

Harbour cities Kokuma and Rekman

Each realm gets a second capital by the sea: Valorien the Kokuma Bay on the west coast, the "Lion's Harbour", Derion Rekman on the east coast, the "Star Harbour". (in progress)

Beyond the seas

Islands in the west and east, reachable from the harbour cities. (planned)

The new 64-bit client

To be honest: much of this is built and tested automatically, but not yet enabled in the live game. The badge shows the current state.

in progress

Own 64-bit server

Tachyon 2.0 rebuilds the original server: login, combat, quests, trade, PvP, instances and multi-process operation, backed by more than 800 automated tests. Verification with the real client is under way.

in progress

64-bit client

The client builds as a 64-bit version without errors and passes all automated checks. The playtest on a graphics card is pending.

in progress

DX11, DX12 and Vulkan

Three new graphics backends run in the test program. The game itself still renders through the old path; the switch follows step by step.

in progress

Upscaling: DLSS, FSR, XeSS

The integration is prepared and detects the graphics card. Until motion vectors are done, only the built-in upscaler with sharpness slider is active.

in progress

Linux via Proton/Wine

Start script, guide for Steam and Lutris and a platform-neutral login store are done; the self-test runs without errors. A test on a real graphics card is missing.

in progress

Native Linux client

Runs as an AppImage under X11 and Wayland into the game world and is playable on NVIDIA graphics cards. Polishing (clicking NPCs, effects, option windows, controllers) is under way.

in progress

Launcher and patcher

Signed updates, delta downloads and repair are built and tested. The client package is already delivered through the launcher.
