Not anywhere near an ETA yet, but making great progress. I have ditched canvas, it just makes no sense for a game like LS. I have maybe 30-40% or so of the client converted at this point. Login screen, character select screen (sorta.. doesn't draw the character properly yet), town, inventory, item hovers, prof window, shrine, and some other random stuff is "done". Still needs visual tweaks in some cases, but making steady progress. Characters aren't drawing right yet, this will probably be one of the hardest things to port, as it'll require reworking how it actually works.

Even once the code conversion is "done", there will be a lot of final testing required. So far, things are looking good, though.

Fantastic!

I am Curious now, from the sounds of this update so far, it is mainly in the direction of Coding/Graphics update.

Are there an plans to update seemingly "broken modifications" ; such as Life/Man Per Kill, Life/Mana Per Hit, Life Steal, Magic Luck..etc?

Thanks again!

Edit : What about changing Abilities that are never used?

just a suggestion for testing phase on release:

only test it on sc first.
if thats not possible seperate, disable hc for the testing phase or
make a pop up at the game start, where ppl need to confirm, that they are aware of the risk losing their char due to bugs while the test phase is running
or offer two versions of ls at once.

People do not always follow instructions, as was evidenced in the past with the introduction of Elemental Education.
Paul specifically advised everyone to test it out in SC first, but one guild either did not read it, or totally ignored it.
They lost all 5 HC characters and the gear they carried when EE performed its' designed function and obliterated them in an instant
