Oh yeahhh the amount of cloudy days makes me so depresso sometimes 
like ah yes more issues 
I've tried to get answers so many times 🙃
Because if it's what I think I am that's like.....not what anyone actually wanted afaik
@dry swift nah I get it I've been in a lousy mood lately due to like, well, Everything, but I always have a pet peeve about people using real life tragedies to shut people up even when nothing's been mentioned
So uh why is the game in first person now? I can't fix it
It just freezes on me when I try to open the map or menu
Mine is fine... that's peculiar
What a great game! Awesome!
Mine is also fine, I'm guessing that might be a switch exclusive issue?
Disappointed but not surprised
I didn't know there was a first person mode, so im wondering what's happening 
Also the mod bench preview is still broken 🥹
Game's broken (again)
i would meme what the crabs said about cherry picking but its like beating a dead horse
So, anyone else not able to water trees?
You can spin it in the menu!
Who needs a QA team when we have #💬│palia-discussions . They'll find everything that's wrong with the game before the patch even comes out. Love you guys! 😂
This game is so goofy 🤦♂️
It's actually garbage now. I want to love it. It scratches every itch but my god
I just did fine. It was one I literally just placed tho
That's kinda what it means to play an Open Beta to be fair 
Yeah, but the game is effectively soft launched though /gen
Ok, same issue. Just flow trees
Not entirely/completely true. There is still QA testing, and yes, Open Beta [even tho it's barely advertised as such] will help find the other issues and bugs... but there's still usually QA testing beforehand too!
It's a mix of both.
Tell that to all their advertising and marketing lmao
Big Grove tree is going around and killing all our flow trees so that we have to honor the 3am rule again! This is an outrage!
Oh absolutely!
Tbf I don't even think they know it's open beta
Almost correct. It's open beta with a full functioning cash shop that receives new items every week 🙂
Exactly. The 3am grove rule is just a manmade concept. Let us chop our trees in peace! Grove Gobblers unite!
Wanting to briefly mention, pls, I would love to be able to Auto-Run, but while autorunning, turn without needing to hti auto-run again.
It's annoying to be running, hit to go left or right, and the autorun just stops 
I think it's hard to defend the whole "oh its in beta" thing when it's on multiple platforms, many of which don't even say that its in 'beta'
Tree broken still tsk tsk
It's just a nice thing to do.
I know I can turn with my mouse/camera, but.. having an option to do both would be nice.
Plus Nintendo doesn't allow beta games in the shop so there's that
ripperoni bernie meme
Einar bot
me and you are gonna have a bad time
Flashing between zones is still present, be careful folks
12 letters in caps...
Thank you!
According to the Toxic Positivity crowd: Palia's in beta when S6 needs to be held accountable for questionable decisions.
According to the Palia-Discussions crowd: Palia isn't in beta because they have a functioning cash shop and the game is on Switch.
According to S6:
Thank you for you hard work 
I still haven't had the full white screen, that people mentioned. But yeah, i still get the flashing going zone to zone, or house plot to plot via home tours. 
I use my mouse and AWSD keys, and in the beginning I feel there was a toggle to auto run (or something like that) and it was the fast run. They did some update in 2023 that borked that, and it hasn’t been the same since. Like, every time I switch servers I have to turn the fast run on again.
wonder what is even causing the whole flasing issue
I can't even use my favorite emotes because they have too many capital letters or letters in a row, pain and suffering
Wow....what about folks who just want to be nice to other players, accept it is in beta, but doesn't except that as an excuse for questionable decisions
We riot at dawn jkjk
The full white screen has happened to me only on my home plot, and I’ve experienced it at least 5-6 times already.
Didn't mean to use the 'beta' tag as an excuse or anything, it's just that it being a beta will more naturally lead to more bugs as they work toward a complete product (1.0), but it's fair to criticize long-standing issues and cash-shop practices if they're bad
Since the patch? :(

I'm testing going between every zone so I can isolate it if I can
Oh, before today. I haven’t logged in since the update an hour ago. My b
they should rewrite the code at this point if its taking this long to fix a health concerning bug tbh. just bite the concrete already man
Also, I don't think WC is going to hire a CM now after we kinda bullied him out of here 😦
I just switched over here a that was the first comment I saw.
I want to mention I get that you're not, but there have been people who have labeled it as an excuse. And they also have stripped the word "beta" on a majority of platforms. It doesnt say it on steam store, epic, or anywhere on switch. So, at least for me, does make me a tad more critical bc of that!
Youre fine! 
It looks like the flash is happening before the game actually loads into the next zone, so I think they might have somehow messed with load times and the game is trying to fill the space but it doesn't have anything so it just flashes?
from what i can tell, it's genuinely whenever youre on a loading screen going somewhere else
That has been an issue for ages now, and i know at least (1) person who has been trying to mention it to the devs
I'm jumping in late here, and what you say is fair, but I still want to throw out my two cents in a more general manner since there's a lot of people that do use beta as an excuse: Storefronts generally don't list this game as beta/early access. If you go to the website and to the download button, nowhere along the way is it listed either.
And honestly, with the state this game is in, in my opinion it feels a lot more like an alpha. We're not in the "ironing out bugs" stage, we're in the "things don't work and is waaay unfinished" stage.
I didn't experience it when we tested snowballs last patch, I wonder why I'm suddenly getting it now
Oh yeah I have seen that too, just thought I'd add a little more nuance! And stripping the word beta on purpose definitely sounds a bit icky, but I am not familiar with standard-practices when it comes to console rules for Early Access/Beta titles.
I am a newer player mind you, so I haven't lived through any negative/positive era's of this game quite yet
I know in the case of the steam release they were told that they couldn't retroactively add an early access banner to it and went ahead anyway, I'm guessing with Nintendo they just didn't mention that they consider the game in beta
To be honest, it was a bit more subtle/fast before this patch, from what i remember. It does seem a bit more... uhh what's the word. pronounced...?
(brain is turning mush, forgive)
That's a shame Steam doesn't allow that, think it would help set expectations for first-time players
We were trying to tell S6 for weeks prior to the steam launch and i'm p sure at least one CM acknowledged it but they went ahead and did it anyway, then went "whoopsies tee hee" when there was a huge backlash in the reviews after
I think it's to stop games from launching, not delivering what they promised, and then slapping an early access banner on to avoid accountability. If they allowed games to retroactively add it then it would remove people's ability to get refunds if they purchase a game only to be scammed
Yeah that's definitely fair!
it was uhhhh let's say a bit of a mess but yeah. they were aware that it was labeled wrong and left it as such anyway
and the misleading marketing annoys me more tbh than all the issues I've had with the game itself
Iirc they said march/April that they would fix the steam page but never did since they should add it in the description
Oh, and yeah, as people say: They have a functioning cash shop... and they are pushing hard. It feels like every patch more than half of the talk about the new patch is "here's the new premium stuff you can spend money on". At this stage I feel it is fair and right to critique it as proper product, even if unfinished.
I just see someone flying into the distance on the ground. (just a visual issue, but still amusing nonetheless.)
They gotta go fast
Yeah, all they can really do is add a message in the description of the game but I'm not sure how much good it would do.
the cash shop has been there for almost 2 years now, though the alpha coins did roll over into beta
Yeah they had the cash shop in alpha and actually increased the prices when it went into beta
something something off to their home planet
Easy to miss too, for sure, would help if Steam had something to easily mark it besides early access
Yes. I personally don't think that changes my stance. They are pushing it hard all the time. If they're gonna push spending so hard in beta, then I think it's fair to expect a certain minimum of functionality/state/quality. After all, this isn't a charity thing, they are selling something.
Yeah it's a mixed bag, but a promise for more communication and Elderwood in Q2 does make me more willing to spend rather than not, though some goodwill, like earnable cosmetics, would help more
well my discord font is all messed up and idk why...
I like to remind myself that Once Human is also a free game where you can play the entirety of the content without spending anything.
(The main difference though is I don't feel sad when I log into Once Human and I can find something fun to do)
i need to get back into once human at some point... i had a blast playing
Of course NetEase is a much larger studio so I guess it's comparing apples to oranges.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding - we specifically said patch 0.189 in the blog. Did we say something else somewhere else? I want to fix it if so.
The news post here on Discord had "Fresh Decor Tints" on it for a while before that got edited out. And while I can't recall the wording in the blog post at the moment there were some things where I was "did they mean that is coming now or in 0.189", so I'm not too surprised.
big oof. okay gonna go have some chats. see y'all later.
It also was on discord, but y'all edited that pretty quick! and I know you can't edit social media posts on twitter. But that's probably where people are getting confusion!
"fresh decor tints" is in all of the social media previews
(was part of the discord announcement as well before it got edited)
Ahhh yeah, I quit that game cause their seasonal story lines ended before they were ready to release the next story patch, which made for having to replay a season or to just quit the game until the new one
I think the temporary seasons + how insanely expensive the loot crates got did it for me but I think gameplay-wise they did an amazing job.
I like that the first comment on Twitter is someone saying they aren't gonna fall for the tints again
lol
Proudly launching lootcrates in 2024/2025 was definitely a choice, glad Palia does nothing like that 
I had the exact same thought
Lmfao
wtf? im coming back to palia after 4 months, im logging in and the first i see is the new really huuuuuuuuuge mission display on the right, like wtf? Why is it that big, its covering 30% of my screen..thats such a big mistake. Can i make it smaller somehow?
oh christ that's xbox hueg
Me waiting for the basic feature of moveable ui elements 
Literally just started that game last night. Seems decent so far. I guess we'll see as I get further in how bad (or not bad) the monetization push will be.
The game is just very aggresively telling you to do your missions!
i dont think there's a way to shrink it. but i didnt really search cause idc about quest
Oh you'll know for once human do I have to pvp or is it a end of season thing 
yeah, i will do them just to get rid of the ui xD
is it intended tho?
It's 100% cosmetic monetization, but the loot crates are definitely not worth unless you just happen to have $200-300 lying around every week for a new car skin or w/e they're pushing lol. The house decor packages are definitely worth taking a look at in the shop though. (But there are also unlockable cosmetics/furniture) cough cough
Sometimes I'll swipe just to be a pretty pretty princess 
I shall continue to sit, observe, sip tea, and roll around waiting for the Infinity Nikki update later.... sooo many free outfits incoming......
yeah this is new this patch. i dont think they shoulda made it larger, but i think the new colours and icons are nice, at least.
I wish there was UI scaling or at least a way to collapse them.
Ugh, Palia twitch drops. I think I'd rather watch paint dry.
Beauty requires sacrifice!
Those twitch drops actually aren't the worst
ye the icons are nice thats an improvement, but the size actually scared me
Same here, trust me lol. it gave me a shock
Twitch drops are ez because you can just mute the window and open a new one and ignore it for hours
idk why they just dont give the exact numbers... idk how much that totals up to
I feel like that's just wasting valuable bandwidth at that point but yeah I've done that plenty of times before lol
Fashion is the true end game....I spent days...months in acnh custom clothing it was just so fun...sadly during my ow dva era...I know my true shame
Doesnt always work for everyone, unfortunately, esp since twitch drops can be buggy [but that's twitchs fault]. but the rewards this time around, aren't awful at least.
I've tried watching Palia twitch streams before and they seem pretty boring but it might just not be my thing.
Not necessarily, because my tab will go into low power mode and I switch the video quality to 240fps 
Where can I see the drops? :o
They just posted what they are in #📢│palia-news
Some games are more fun to play than watch, I think a cozy game like Palia really requires a good personality to be interesting to watch
What do people even do in palia streams? cake parties? I've never genuinely watched one
Either that or I need some of Zeki's catnip to be able to stomach it for 6 hours.
I watch a couple streamer for mine and they usually are just running around farming resources lol
depends. run around. last time i saw, they were just.. hunting over n over 
Honestly, I'm more tempted to purchase their diamond pass. I am hooked.
Yeahhhh you'd have to have a REALLY good personality to make that entertaining lmf
I watch (redacted) sometimes. She usually lays out her streams with things to work on and then will chat about her dog and with her community
Ty! I wasn’t aware. I fixed
I think if you get it this month, you can get an outfit plus its evolution for one diamond each so effectively free
Also their $1 outfit this time is so cute, so are all the free incoming ones
I don't think it works if you completely mute it... set it to lowest vol! 😊
I don’t mute the stream, I mute the tab! It still counts for me /gen
Whelp, can't do the Lunar New Year quest if you did it last year. MAJOR disappointment.
Got ya! 👍 😊
actually i change my mind. i just did the math on the twitch drops, and those isnt worth my time. i got fumbled/confused on math since it says 12x 250 etc. curse you

Im still glad it has a use but that still doesnt feel worth my time
oh are there drops on atm?
the new update is very surprising beautiful
So the new quest tracker is WAY too big, it's taking up half the screen
Yes!
hahahah you got jumpscared too? XD
big agree
It's just something to put on in the background (on mute) for some extra envelopes while you do the event in-game! Some more never hurties 
but granted... that's on me 
sorry - rant over💨
how i give him Colore ?
AHHHH I need that $1 dollar outfit. I've loved Infinity so much, it's even made me partially go back to Love Nikki (though that game is just MTX hell).
it's such a crime we never got recipes for these
Too many things in this game is uniques, both event and otherwise. Sad to see we just keep getting more of that.
DROP EVERYTHING, another way quest is fixed! a player just completed it, meaning the cauldron works!
the table near chayne/the wishing tree
I just realized my focus bar is huge/long. ... Why
i dont remember it being this lengthy
a lot of the UI suddenly got huge
It's such a cute game, it drives me nuts that so much is tied to vital energy and I'll probably be farming bouldy for the next ten thousand years, but I enjoy playing and I love that we get a lot of stuff for free
I just totally didnt notice my focus bar i guess. i was so focused on how large the quests part is i guess 
mine was that way too till I moved from one zone to another and now its small again
we need them for something`?
ah, so just another one of palia things. got it 
That's weird. Seems normal here. Max upgrades. A fluke perhaps? Does resets or zone change fix it or is it just permanently long now?
just changed zones. still lorge. i wonder if restarting the game would be different. i'll try shortly, cuz now im curious
Definitely agree! I don't mind it as much since I play Star Rail but I do wish we eventually got some reserve vital energy storage like we do in HSR. But it's really such a joy playing, aside from the eventual microstutter.
I suppose it's not just me with this totally new face, hair and slightly dead looking skintone-in-tone with the outfit I never saw before? 😄
chat server messages are huge for me too
Mhm. Normally I'd not bat an eye at something like that and just chalk it down as "another one", but this is the first time I've seen or heard of that specific one, and that has me intrigued.
that's been a thing for a bit. it should fix by changing zones
that bug has been in the gaem since day one, a restart fixes it usually
Okay. For me this was a first 😄
OMG I see what it was!
yeah I had Default Woman Head on Texture Missing Base Body Model recently. it makes me laugh
oh my god. buffing literally buffs your focus
Yah, well, I walked it off, so to speak ^^ Thx for the tip. ^^
this is phenomenal. this is art.
Apply fishing buff again! 
I wonder if it grows more per level of rod buff 
i can never quit this game. for all the frustration I experience, I have never experienced this much joy daily and the euphoria that I am actually pretty good at my programming job.
dude, if you stack buffs does it get longer. is it like a Pinocchio thing.
how are people getting the snake plushie?
It doesn't look like it, since i had x5 earlier, and that's about the same size
try different buffs?
what other buffs are there again. it's been too long
like eat a trout dinner too
its from the market. cost 6k tickets i think
ahh thank u sm
oh no try fisherman brew for the size boost too
It costs 2000 envelopes at the market!
Has anyone who still has their honey tested if anything has been fixed in regards to it (i.e. being able to store it)?
Brew didn't increase it. and i dont have a trout rn rip to test the dinner
AWWWW
You can. It's marked as a gatherable now, so you can store it
Thank you! 😊
Does anyone want to compare treasure chest locations with me, and see if we found locations that the other didn't find? I've found 5/6, but can't seem to find the last one 
So I can't water any of my flow trees anymore, anyone else running into this situation? I've tried moving them and everything. Note: I am on the new landscape and will try swapping back to my old landscape in a minute.
That's a known issue
Is it any landscape?
thank you! will be grinding for that 💪
My Treasure Chest Locations are:
||Under HotPot tables bridge||
||On Zeki's Tent Stand||
||On Hill closest to HotPot tables (by sea)||
||By Daliah's Stands||
||Right by the Fairgrounds Entrance (from Kilima)||

Ok, speculation time. Focus bar and buff list are supposed to be separate. Focus bar requests a certain size. The buffs occupy no internal space when it's empty, and supposed to "overlay" when something is there. As soon as something is in it, the buff icon section requests a minimum size... but instead of being an overlay it is treated as an entire column making the requested minimum size also add to the bar.
How many buffs are there in total. Three types of fishing buff iirc, right? Are there any other things that apply buffs? Trying to think, but drawing a blank right now.
Sorry, yeah, any landscape
just drank a brew so I'd have an active buff and yup 100% increased the focus bar
No Buff and with buff shown. Seems it doesn't matter how many buffs just as soon as you get 1
Tested it with a smoke candle, since that's also a buff, and it's still the same size as when i have the fish one still on
Just trying to see if we can increase the size even further by going beyond the default minimum width requested by the grid. I don't know what the minimum requested size is, so pushing as many buff types as possible is the thought. But I can't think of any buffs but those three, which probably isn't enough to break minimum width.
okay good, thought I just wasted 1700 coins on something I was goign to have to shelf till a fix came in lol
Hey, if you want, I can sort you out with trout 😄
It's all good
since the Brew didnt increase it, im assuming? the trout wouldn't either. (if i already have a buff enabled, i mean)
It seems its just as soon as you get a buff there's a hidden frame for buffs and it's now connecting to the focus bar forcing it to resize instead of being independent of itself
Yeah, probably what it is. All fishing buffs gone, only smoke candle remains, and it's still lorge
No worries.
And unsure. It could be that the buffs area requests a minimum width no matter how many buffs (i.e. 300 pixels), so one or two buffs ain't enough. But with enough buffs, it breaches that minimum width (say 350 pixels) and then starts adding more length.
Again though, no worries, I just like doing silly stuff to break game. 😂
like just imagine a long bar (just like at the bottom where it says "Press Enter to chat" well when you get a buff that bar shows up but its opacity is set to 0% so you dont see the bar but thats where your buff icons show up. Well now it's connected to the focus bar and will increase its size when that bar shows up (the buff bar doesn't grow as you get buffs but instead just adds icons to it as you get them) a lot of games use this method
You know, that's also a good point 
However somewhere in thee patch they messed up and now the size of your focus bar is connected to the size of your buff bar
Working on building all the buff stuff
this kind of breaking is my favourite. harmless ui bugs are great
Oh, trust me, there's a lot of fun ways to break this game because... well... it's code is held together with spaghetti and duct tape. One of my favourites is walking and fishing underwater.
oh man yeah. I work in IT and do speedrunning primarily as a glitch tester, specializing in boundary breaking. nothing delights me more than shoving my face against a 1px opening and managing to vibrate my way past 20% of the game
Man, I'm having real bad luck with the coral spawns now. Need one more for this test
Never change
I'm pretty good at speedrunning the Palia tutorial. Don't ask why
oh I have an idea why
Yes, exactly
Oh, hey...
Oh wow huh the twitch drops actually don't suck this time
I can't believe you've doxxed these people this way
now their credit score is TOAST
It is time...
yes and no!
I like that they at least have use, but 3000 tickets for 6 hours still feels like my time isnt valued. but again, im just glad they have a use this time around! instead of a potato pod lmao
Lmao yeah that's pretty much my assessment too 
Okay, so, once you hit... four I think it was, it changes the spacing between icons. At five it starts hiding some of them... and close to 10 or something it creates a second row, but still don't show all of them. Size of focus bar don't change.
How does it look when you open your inventory?
Soo, I've made some observations but since I don't know how the game has been playable before yesterday, I don't know if it says anything xD
I agree but it also helps the twitch streamers out as well! It’s more of a win win in my eyes, I do wish for more items out of the time taken!
Ah, that doesn't seem out of the ordinary
Also, your character looks quite snazzy 👀 
Wait one moment
I think I may know why some of them don't show
Ahh, anything that contributes to the compass (hunting horns, ore compass, etc.) override each other. If you have an active ore compass and then activate a horn, the ore compass ability is lost.
Oooh... interesting
But yeah, seems five is max per row, and then it just adds more row, so apart from the resize from initial first buff, the focus bar won't grow more.
You're getting 3000 tickets for essentially doing nothing, you can just pop up twitch, put the volume to 1% and take a nap.
Unless twitch bugs out because it does that sometimes with drops [which again, that is on twitch and not s6/palia]. I still dont' think it values my time overall. 
That's interesting. Either way, still amusing. Ty for this science 
Goodnight everybody! Nice chatting, time to go be a responsible adult now 😦
Alright what are our favorite bugs from this patch so far?
The pumpkins got removed right? 🤣
Though I wouldn't mind Halloween 2.0 in January / February
Neato. Thanks for investigating! That type of stuff is so absurdly helpful I can't even describe.
focus bar go big
(thanks to @livid lagoon and @fiery perch 🙂 )
It honestly is a very amusing visual bug. Appreciate Kresjah investigating that more 
also, i celebrated too early. my wallpaper is wood panelling again 
alas
Any word on snowball testing Valkorii?
gotta go fast
I know @tulip anvil mentioned that they didn't see the flashbang effect on the switch. I know a friend is also going to test to make sure they dont have it still on PC, and i dont see it anymore.
I know I wasn't asked, but I tested snowballs with someone who said the hotfix didn't work for them (on PC) a few hours ago, and it seems it worked for them. They didn't have the opportunity to test on Switch at the time.
the hotfix didnt work for me either and I'm patching so I can test atm
but I'm glad it sounds promising at least...
let me know
im still waiting to hear about the white screen of death
that's so odd about the hotfix working for some and not others. glad so far it seems it might be fixed
This isnt about the snowballs, but thought this was important to mention overall:
The flashing between changing zones [or plot to plot via house tours], is still there and has seemed to have gotten worse? Like, more pronounced/obvious it's there? Idk how else to explain it.
Not sure about the full white screen that lasts with the UI and everything tho. I haven't had that happen yet, but i know that one is very sporadic :\
Might have something to do with this kinda fix (sorry, just had to).
Oh, perms still not back 😂 Well, was flex tape gif.
I can see it
if you save the gif, then post it like an image, it works
But that's like... 4 extra clicks or something.
There isn't embed perms here
Oh, I know. But that's always the case here for some reason, unless youre on mobile then it bypasses it somehow
I really should add a keyboard with gif functionality as a secondary one just for that.
But yeah @livid lagoon for sure, it was just a shot at trying to get the fix for at least some people when we knew we couldn't get everyone. Some better than none kinda approach but obvs not ideal :/
speaking of fix, in theory saying if worse case... the flash bang still happens and becomes more common (not the snowballs the white screen of death mainly) are users effected outta luck for LNY?
That's fair. Some is better than none.
There are things to be said here as well, but I think I've been harsh enough for now and don't want to revive an old debate right now.
Speaking of that, btw. I want to say ty, WC [and/or who makes thet railers]. For at least trying to make a warning about photosensitivity on the trailer itself.
Can i suggest [if you can pass it along!] to have it show up on a dark background, first, at the start of the trailer? Instead of having it as subtle text on the bottom while the flashing/fireworks appear?
I just wanted to mention that, bc it honestly was appreciated and it was def a step forward. And I really wanted to acknowledge that specific thing.
cas there is a plant i want >:v i think its a plant like a tree?
Considering we still don't have clear repro steps for this I think it's highly unlikely we figure out a fix and hotfix it in before LNY. Sorry I know that sucks.
ty for letting me know 
ey guys what if i kid...i mean borrow one of you irl to do lny for me jkjk
While not clear repro step, and while it can still happen at random moments, I've seen talks of it happening more often on zone changes and rushing through house tours. Things that seem to involve loading screens or some kind of loading.
Noted. I will pass that along
Thanks! Appreciate that. 💛
kresjah the lil tree plant thing though its cute!
how do i acess zekis premium coin thingy
Come down here and I'll do it for you. 😄
Well, the bad news is that it's happening more often. The good news is that that makes it more likely to get fixed faster if we want to look at silver linings...
Unfortunately not available yet. Will probably happen in the beginning of Feb. We didn't want to delay the patch for it to be ready though.
not a problem for me 🙂
glad its not glitched out on me rn lol
Oh, and WC, some people have been saying the Cauldron is fixed!
the flash is gone! 
Indeed. I will say though, while the lack of clarity on this one makes it a lot harder to trigger, I personally think this should be among the highest priority fixes right now. There's way to many people now who are still on the "just can't play the game at all" because of this. It's entire player/market groups that can't play now. Not to mention they also miss out on timed stuff they'll have to wait forever for and that might not ever come back (LNY stuff, particularly ones tied to the type of year it is).
Yay! I'm so glad.
at least I can visit the market without people harassing me now
And those particles, you should be able to get rid of those if you turn the effects to low!
Fair enough. I'm looking into it.
that's insane but shockingly not surprising
Also, might have been a single fluke... but my Big Game Hunter did not proc on the last magic I took down. Gonna see another if I can find another magic to double check.
Wanting to show this for comparison. This is how it looks when hitting something with effects on low! not so much like a snowstorm.
I also meant to unping oops, 
idm I have multiple monitors, it brings my attention back lol
that's a positive spin on it, I guess! I only wish it weren't at the deficit of your wellbeing
is this for the snowballs?
honestly the particles took so little of my overall screen I'm not sure if it'll matter compared to the big flash it had before, but thank you because if it does bother me I can change that at any time!
Yep! Wanted to show the comarpison between the two, because the particles can be a bit overstimulating for some. So if it is a bit much, should be able to make Effects to "low" and it makes it look like the image i posted instead. 
Of course! I just wanted to put it out there for you, or anyone else who may need that option.
awesome, as someone who was affected by the flash bang affect that's 1 point of good news lol
Risk manager career whaaaat?!?! Your responses are amazing and while they may not be positive, it makes sense.
Nah, I'm just a really grumpy guy who spends too much time in front of my screen. 
Same here. I have to remind myself to take breaks sometimes
Well your responses are a breath of fresh air in this channel. Keep at it!
Breaks? What is that? The bright and shiny colorful rectangle calls my name and I answer.
Well, I meant... breaks from being grumpy and typing in paliacord discussions 
what is this thing called "breaks"
I didn't mean a break from my screen 
Thanks! I try to be useful... sometimes.
Ohh... haha... well, yeah. Otherwise I think we'd all end up having our brains go fully backwards in evolution.
Yeah. Sometimes I just go and am like, welp, time to just play WoW Classic for hours
good ole fashion torture
Big game hunter proc'ed this time. No idea why it didn't register that one magic muujin. I checked beforehand and was 4/5 at the time. The weird thing is it should have registered since I got the last shot on it and it dropped a loot bag (meaning it did count as me participating in taking it down).
They did it, they lied in the patch notes again
that's kinda odd (but magic muujin are notorious for being sneaky beasts like that
)
Hmm, yeah, that don't work here either. Another one to add to the list.
Testing out other buttons, but can't find anything functioning. Unless...
It's not in keybindings either
Could this be a badly worded one again? Does this actually apply to visitors coming to visit your regular home?
"G" is apparently my secondary interact button
I know when visiting friends, even as an editor who can move their items, I can't view the names of items... so I'm wondering if this erraneously might just apply to regular visits to friends (and not home tours)?
Atp why not implement it for both
Mistakes? Home Tours and Plot visitors implemented as two different systems, so they'd have to reference the examination function in both modes, and they accidentally only added it to one?
Which begs the question again, do they even test their own stuff...
I think I can partially, consistently trigger white flashbang
Yup, visiting a plot with the winter skin (no matter if tours or in person) does it almost consistently
I've been on that plot, and haven't gotten it yet 
I can't trigger the flash to stay, but I can consistently trigger it for millisecs
Oh, yeah this one is different (from what i can tell). this happens everytime you change zones
i mean, might be the same, i guess. and maybe something makes the 'white' stick, but i knw people int he past mentioned the "white screen" randomly appear even while decorating
Does this happen both on switch and pc
To be honest, the one I saw seemed to be UI related... which the game has plenty of everywhere. Even if I can only consistently do that on certain screens, if it pulls functionality from the same parts of the UI library when, say, moving stuff in decor mode, it could still be linkedd.
Was meant as a reply, but forgot to hit reply 😄
Does anyone of you who have experienced it have a screenshot at hand of it? I seem to recall seeing some where some UI elements are available over the flash.
And when i change zones, it happens too quick i cant get a screenshot. i can try to record tho and try that way
It might not be the same flash after all, but reviewing the footage I got now, and I'm wondering if it is related to loading (or failing to load) UI Texture2D elements. But considering partially transparent overlays can still be Texture2D images with alpha channel, that can still go white
Thank you. Also, still from my footage.
Had to repost to avoid blinding chat. Refer to image: #💬│palia-discussions message
no the overlay 
Does this happen both on switch and pc
i will say i've noticed white screen way less on my switch, but the graphics are so poor i can't even play on my switch so it doesn't matter either way
Again, might be two different errors, or could be linked. Unsure if the white flashbang in the other bulletin pic is simply overlay creating issues, UE camera exposure issue, or other post process issue. But my guess is one of those three.
one or a possible combo. my only saving grace seems to be my steam deck as i haven't had way too many issues on there.
even your screenshot is too much for my eyes 
I can't spoiler it after posting. Let me repost and do that.
going back i nfootage, yeah mine is similar to what you had appear, Kresjah
Spoilered 'cause flashbang. Refer to original post: #💬│palia-discussions message
ty, much appreciated was trying to figure out why i was suddenly getting pains and then it dawned on me lol
Oof, sorry! 🫂
I'm never gonna be able to unsee this on every single loading screen now
I mean more poofy out since it still thing 
Looking at footage again, it seems to literally last for a single frame for me.
One frame to long jkjk I hope more people. Either report it or maybe the deadness means it's happening under very speical situations which is a win
I'll be sure to try and get this forwarded in a way that gets at least that one fast tracked... and hopefully there's a relation there that'll solve the greater issue.

Yeah for me, it def happens everytime i change zones. Maybe once or twice, I don't notice it, but yeah.
I haven't had the full white screen (like the support bulletin board tho) yet.
I mean if it means I just pretend not to see when zone changing it's liveable smack a warning and good to go. But if it's still a random what if as we had last few patches then minor issues there
Oh yeah I was meant to be drawing a glider what happened to that 
It doesn't seem to be full zone loads either. Afaik, home tours doesn't load you out of the map either, but it does throw up a loading screen for a brief moment as it switches out assets and stuff... and that is still enough to trigger it.
Need to see if I have any online friends on plot to test with
Oh, that's true. Idk why i counted changing plots via house tours as a new zone lol. i guess bc of the loading screen
Aye. It's why I'm thinking that one in particular is UI related (or potentially post process related, since that sometimes overlays stuff too).
I get one going from home to kilima or vice versa, consistently
Also, assuming you're also "Kresjah" on Palia ... okay if I add you? 
before the load screen actually
Aye. It's still awful with the load screen, but if it was only that we could say "bad, but at least we know"
Feel free to add me
Sent a request
and if you ever need to randomly go to my plot to test stuff or something, feel free
Dumb question but with the new Zeki feature is it in game coins for the premium stuff or like your real money?
Actually, what happens is when you go to a new zone or switch house tours, it throws up the loading screen for a frame, then makes it completely transparent, before fading to black, and then making load screen 100% visible again. It is that single frame at the start that blinds in this particular case.
real money
Added. Just waiting for game to realize I hit add 😄
425 real money for the palia coin premium stuff? Like the loyalty club stuff?
will be 5 USD, to get 425 palia coins, and then 30 each day you login
Can you redden with eshop points
That I'm not sure
Cheers! 
Thanks for that. Got some footage. Gotta edit out some stuff and names, but now I can review this properly
No worries! Anytime
Glad to help
Just as a little side note. Something else from the footage.
That said, this might indicate that the flashes are still two separate issues. At the end of the day though, if this UI one gets squashed it is still one less flash.
do you know when the zeki club will be open?
Had to black out some names, but there's definitely some issues regarding the order in which it loads and unloads UI elements.
WC said probably not til beginning of early feb. but still not 100% confirmed!
That's interesting 
mine is definitely not throwing up a load screen for one frame, I recorded it too. it's just a white screen for one frame. different problems?
(from home to vilima or kilima to home)
Honestly, from my mediocre Unreal Engine understanding, it seems like an issue where they add UI to the viewport (screen in this case) first, then populate it or set values like transparency, rather than the other way around: prepopulate and set transparency then add to viewport.
Alternatively, defaulting the UI to being transparent.
That said, they may just have the UIs added permanently added to viewport, and just do the settings for it in the wrong order.
The more footage we have, the merrier. If you're getting a completely white screen, it could still be the same issue. Might have something to do with some computers loading elements faster than others, so more of my loading screen finishes before it gets hidden, whereas yours doesn't manage to load as much, thus getting completely white.
Or it could be a different issue.
Well then. Thanks. 😂
For those who play on Switch, I have another question:
When you open the game and are on the start screen, is it normal that you can't click anything to make the screen go away and let you actually start the game?
Because I tried all buttons and what-nots but I always have to wait until I can select "Play"?
And it takes ages, when I started it earlier, it almost took a minute until i could join
it's been a while since I played on my switch, but i noticed it then yeah. you might find folks in #🎲│console-zone who know more about the how and why though
Okay, good to know that is apparently "normal"
Completely unrelated to the current issue I'm investigating. I don't really use the alternate plot skins and don't spend time touring so I've never noticed this. On the official Palian Showcase Home I see this.
Definitely not meant to look like this.
What do y'all think about the new tint??? 🤔
Okay, had my first actual fullscreen flashbang happen and I think I see partially what's going on
Too bad I had just stopped recording
There's no new tint til next patch 0.189
AAA I thought they'd added it in this one, ty for letting me know
The big white screen flash seems to be lighting or post process for sure. When it happened, first flashed, but you could still vaguely see outlines before it faded more and more to white. Some elements in world are still partially visible at "max fade".
This reminds me a lot of how you have camera exposure settings you have in the post process of UE that is supposed to mimic eye/camera auto-exposure. Simulating how eyes or cameras react to different lighting settings and adapting to it, or getting blinded.
I can confirm this is a lighting/post process issue though because it also affects the previews of party members (which are generated from models).
Spoilering
you the real mvp
also, slightly unrelated. But just got a little... idk the word, disappoitned? sad? [but not surprised]. I went to LNY area, to test how the fireworks might be on Effects with "Low" ...
Mistake, mistake.
I think i still have to sit out from LNY and anything maji market related. Unless I try to get tickets very very slow by grabbing 1 chappa and then alt tabbing til that's over.
While whitescreened, going into inventory, then premium shop, the whitescreen disappears as it fades out and opens premium UI, but when you go back out of premium UI it goes straight to whitescreen. Again, seems to hint at post process to me at least, as I'd assume it disabled some post process during fadeout to the fullscreen premium UI, and re-enables it when you exit the UI.
But on that note, going to alt tab from Palia. I'll sit on my home plot if you end up needing to do any other testing, Kresjah. At least for a little while
And also, Kresjah, ty for all the testing and stuff youre doing. Def appreciated 
It is 99% post process.
Hah, setting bloom quality to 0 makes some more elements visible through the whitescreen
Setting bloom quality to 0 helps in general
I'll record a bit to make it easier
When I have bloom on, in palia, for some reason it makes things just look blurry or like my resolution is not great. i turn it to 0? thigns look so much better lol
Yo, which card are you taking here, and why?
Man its still winter as fk for 2-4 months, why they pretending its spring
if it was me: shrimp because I still have a chance to get the corn next round but I'll never have another chance at that specific shrimp card.
doesn't always work out but that's what I usually do 🤷♀️
unless I'm remembering the rotation order backwards in which case the other one LOL (been a while)
did you find the 6th chest?
Ok, so big warning (and therefore spoilered) about this featuring white screen of death. That said, take note of the difference when I change the bloom settings. Particularly Chapaa Arcade on the right, and the shadow from furniture on the left. You'll also be able to see some bluishness of rocks from the rocky fireplace thingy near the lower left corner when bloom is off.
I did. It's ||on the other side of the lake, at the bottom of the hill||
corn, because it's a sure thing for more points. there are 3 other shrimp out there but only 1 other corn (or maybe 4 and 2 but my point stands)
Silly question, but i have t oask because Palia's settings are weird.
Did you also try using the drop down menu, to make the bloom setting to "Low"? can't remember if that one is different if you do Low or sliding it to 0.
[it's different with effects, at least.]
woahhh why does the new tool set preview show it's like a light lilac but actually looking at the tools they're gold and green? no other tool previews are so wildly differing
I think it's the same, but I'll double check since I've left the game open with the WSoD
oh right I forgot it's LNY, that's a bit different than underground hotpot.
Appreciate you. This is just me and my curiosity atm honestly haha
LNY and underground hotpot are different??
in underground most people aim for the prize wheel coins not gold, so the points dont matter to most people
Curiosity in this regard is good. That's what gets things resolved. Heck, it's a mix of wanting my friends to be able to play again and curiosity that makes me poke into this.
Good point. I'm the same way. I also just always found it odd/interesting how "Low" on a setting can give something different than the slider to "0".
I think I understand..?
Ok, I can't see any noticeable difference from setting it to Low (which forces slider to 0), or sliding it down to zero (which forces setting to Custom).
That said, sidenote, parts of the skybox is unaffected.
From what I understand despite them workjing the same the rewards are different, Spam pot is better with Underground HP
Interesting! Thank you. 
Actually, correction. Skybox is unaffected on slider setting 0. 
more points = more tickets in LNY hotpot, if it's the same as last year
I havent gotten to play it yet had to log out after I did the quick flash checks
Ooooh, something just happened. The WSoD fixed itself.
I didnt play it last year, so I genuinely didn't know! So thank you haha
It fixed itself when the skybox changed from night sky background to day background (and as such I assume light settings and maybe post process settings changed).
Hotpot in general confuses me slightly. I'd think I understand it one second, then the next, im like "huh?" 
Oh. Interesting 
I wonder if the white screening occurs during the certain conditions when the sky changes from day to night (and maybe even night to day).
question cas i phased out, so the white death is still just on loading screens?
Kitsuus!!!!
Nah. I got my first real white screen and have been prodding away at it.
We have kitsuus now!!!!
thanks for the update 
is Zeki thing not purchaseable yet?
Oh. Hm. This is strange, especially since on the patch notes it looks like this 
[I almost accidentally pasted a photo of a Build a Bear Yamper pokemon plush whoops
]
I've actually suggested this before #💬│palia-general message but it seems most people dont actually check what time it is when it happens to them, so I wasn't able to confirm. good luck though
not yet no soonish? no date as of yet
no
No. WC mentioned that they hope for early Feb, but not fully confirmed yet.
yeah it's totally throwing me off
in the shop the previews are all gold/green
That's really disappointing, i was ready tostart saving 
don't match the preview at ALL
wait wait build a bear pokemon sounds more fun 
I mean, theyre a cute little corgi, so...
Awh, I was hoping they fixed the cauldron...
Players have reported they did
Or is it still not working for you? It's worked for others, at least!
Yeah, hopefully they update them and mention that's fixed. Cuz multiple people have mentioned they could use the cauldron now
Silly question. How do you get the lunar anemone flower?
I need glowy flowers for my witchy plot
Like I know it says redeemable via stamp card but idk what that is
Go to your inventory and click on the "events" tab, there check out the challenges and itll show you what challenges reward you wit hte flower
Oooh, thank you very much!
Youre welcome
They should pay you for QAing LOL
careful what you wish for, i spent a week figuring out the growth boost wonkiness and my reward was they removed the buff from the fruit 😭

is there an upside to peoples screens suddenly turning almost entirely white though? 
im debating logging on and risking it but i really dont wanna have to play with my health to see if the game works or not like this for free
he dm'ed me alooot about it so i have to mess with some setting stuff as well as a overlay but im lazy
Alooot? Was I that annoying? 
sorry want me to be like nanan he told me nuthin!
Spilling my secrets like that.
(Also, incase it came off wrong, I'm just pulling your leg)
oi anner come back

Krug


I got a headache at the end of my work day, so I'm just reading over chats. :3
The new look for the quests like it looks nice but its wayy to big
Hi anner! 💛
yeah ive seen the new bag clutter to .. its giving mobile game
bag clutter? 
yeah all the currency 
Oh ye it looks uglyyyy
at least hotpot is back in the market
you gonna hold my hand and afk at market if the game isnt headache-y?
I did send a modmail about it, Anner, but there's a comment WC made about the Zeki Loyalty Club (about how it might appear early feb). Not sure if y'all saw it, but sent it over in case y'all wanted to pin it in the Sixer-tracker or to keep note of it!
...I'm also now realizing evan was here too, earlier, but my brain has been mush and disappearing, esp after going to the LNY with the bad awful fireworks
forgive
You know it 😄 
Diskette, i made a mistake and put effects to low and went to LNY. Fireworks were bad. Big mistake.
so now i afk at my home plot so i recuperate
guys its decided we having a date night in market get in there and then tell me of all the nice things you got yourselves
Im gonna be grinding for all the decor i missed last year cause I was burnt out 
ah yeahhhh the settings are a pain like that, i know im gonna take like an hour to mess around with them before i can even do anything 
I was... a little hopeful, even though I shouldn't of. I should of known, since effects on "low" made the flashbang so much worse. But im silly 
i should start doing that in my feedbacks just send them the whole hour long video in real time
Im gonna send every single clip of me whitescreening
Which is a lot.. i hope they will know we gonna become besties and im gonna tell them everytime it happens "yo jerry i whitescreened again heres the clip"
apparently you cant water and one person just told me they cant cut their flow trees?
Gotchuuu. ❤️
Appreciate you! Figured it'd be easier to reference to. 💛
Oh, Diskette, did you see the funny visual if you have a buff, your focus bar is visually longer
at least now everyone can feel about trees how i have for months
yeah we needed some longcat vibes for that
I will be able to make a montage of me whitescreening and ill send that to them too.
for how often it was happening to you im not shocked
yesterday mortis and I were doing our votes for the tickets and within 5 jumps we both ended up whitescreening at the same time.


best i can do is long rat, sorry
Also the only fix to it (other than restarting your game) is leaving out to kilima or bahari.
If you can kinda see and make it out or guess your way there 
ain't even shocked at this point... Like ideally of it was a slow effect I could many let it slide, but the fact it's just there bothers me to much and if it still happens this patch (remember folks it wasn't super present at the start of the last patch) Imma miss out in the lny
I got it to trigger the first day of the game last patch im pretty sure.
I remember I had been afk on your plot with mortis and you both got it
the one time I felt good about my inability to sit still for any period of time
It triggered agian
I am in decor tinting UI, and it switched from day to night. We have a repro folks.
idk if i can go to LNY myself. I might try to see if i can grab 1 chapaa and then afk in a corner and hide til it's over each time. beacuse the fireworks are too much for me
The last few markets I did the "scumbag" thing and stood in one spot and looked at the ground...
For the balloons I was just shooting wildly due to the fireworks 
But like what options do we have 
God the balloons. That was sensory overload and i had to avoid Maji completely because of that. I just can't. 😭
Yeah I submitted feedback every time the market opened and even tried very nicely to have people trigger more fireworks during a few to provide better examples but Idk what happening there... Toggle soon maybe 
Then I gave up cas well it got worse and worse 
Since I didn't get a chance to screenshot it last time, I can now show the skybox with bloom 5. Spoilered of course. You might have to open the picture properly for the difference between skybox parts and clouds, but it should be visible.
So now I'll wait until it turns day again, and see if the switch to day skybox fixes it again.
Kresjah sometimes I'm grateful but other times I'm like.... Love thy eyes 
the LNY music makes me think of disney
Appreciate you. I talk about it enough that I'm sure WC at least has seen me talk about how I feel about some of that stuff. 
I do hope a toggle at some point will come at some point, or a better way to hide "effects" in this way. Like. I would like to participate and do this stuff, but ... alas.
LNY has so many things I want, too.
Does pop a chapaa not happen at the LNY?
My eyes, they have seen things.
no it's hotpot. but hotpot is by the docks, so fireworks are in the area. :\
ahh i see
Genuinely though, I just want the game to be playable for you again. I'll happily take one for that.
I should delete that... Might be seen as something it's not....
Know what? 
This is also why I test stuff pretty much every patch. So Diskette (and others) can play again, or see if there's any workarounds for other things, accessiblity wise, etc etc.
i kind of already accept i prob wont be able to progress and the like, which is fine. I just want others to be able to play and have their comfort game
It use to be playable before the trade update which is kinda funny
The table im at is very flushed out for some reason?
Like I could zone out for abit now it's like speedrun everything and lay down 
Its like how using the mermaid outfit washed it out before they fixed it
You at one of those close to the water? Had the same issue there... the lighting from the sky does weird things to it.
guys summon a carrot for me thx
This was mine: #💬│palia-discussions message
Einar bot not now
I said it and i got it
a rat carrot is the best i can do, sorry
50% of the time, works every time.

Einar bot said no excitement
something about no cap fr fr, i couldn't make sense of it
I've been Einar botted twice today I do not learn
You think if I dm support asking for thr username diskette they might give it to me if we do like a trial by Einar bot
Fish-off!
Requires me to play 
Why is that even an emote LMFAO
because rat
Yknow what fair enough
i have a rat for almost any occassion 



I miss the warning on login

Thank you 😁
Thanks
Update on White Screen bug: Talked with the team and it's currently front and center for them. We still don't have a solid repro locked down so any additional information is super valuable and please keep it coming. But wanted to let folks know it's a priority.
@livid lagoon summoning
I have a solid repro right now
I'm also rendering video of how the self-fixing works.
I assume your team have cheats to change time of day on test servers, potentially copy my plot if it needs a specific setup plotwise. In which case, I have a solid repro.
opens game it deleted my settings D:<
For me to reproduce it all I had to do was plot hop on the tour board a few times and it almost always triggers for me within the first 10 votes. -other than restarting if people make their way to kilima/bahari entrances and go in and out it fixes itself
Yeah lemme follow up in dm again one sec
Thank you for the update, WC, and the communication. Very very appreciated!
Throwing this in here too as I know some of you lot are interested in the technical stuff. Spoilering again because this is grating on eyes. Standing still at plot with WSoD active. At 4:47 AM ingame, note how as it changes to day sky it has like 3-4 steps of fading the WSoD until "regular" state... darker than regular actually before readjusting to normal.
This is definitely very interesting. Thank you!
Definitely interesting.
good evening new to the game
Okay, have sent off all the data I have, including how I've been reproducing it. Where on my plot I'm standing when it happens, roughly when, all that. Hopefully this means we can finally get somewhere with this.
Thank you, appreciate you!
Come lob a snowball at me? 
Yes, was gonna come to your plot anyway. Let me fetch drink first.
All your info, videos, and screenshots are now in our tracking software for the team - thank you so so much!
wait wheres my drink jkjk

Or, if you'd rather.. 
you can have a cranberry sprite @umbral lynx
not fern beating me to it
cranberry sprite whaaat i never heard of that
yeah it's a thing apparently! 
You're welcome. While I understand that you can't give us every detail, I really hope you'll keep us posted on this specific issue here in the Discord posted on what's happening (i.e. "engineers have confirmed reproduction", "working on fix" and "we've implemented a fix, planning on pushing it for [X]" kinda updates).
You want Monster?
yes but no i have work tomorrow and i like my bpm atm
ngl this was me when i saw that
Fair. What can I supply; lovely tap water?
anyone know hoe to get blank wish ribbons ? im tryna complete the lunar market ticket thing
I think you can only get 1 per IRL day
you get one in the mail from chayne once every IRL
oooo okok tahnk youuu ❤️

Wait Orii already did it 
Btw, anyone happen to know the exact times when the skybox itself (so not the day cycle, but actual skybox) switches from day to night and from night to day? The video I took seems to indicate 4:47 AM from night to day, but I missed out on when it went from day to night.
that face made me laugh it’s ok 
(I made the
emoji)
Follow up, seems day to night might be at 7:12 PM, which is when my white screening occurs.
in another screenshot i saw shortly after it happened, time was 7:19 pm in-game
so that tracks
Yeah. It that the while the clock it self is segmented into the 6 PM/9 PM for dusk and night, the actual skybox switches roughly in-between those those two. So it's definitely cycle related.
me who stood there looking at the ground in panic mode 
why do i have a bee at my gate what do i even do in palia
eh the default game struggles to keep settings which is kinda meh
idk if its a me thing or a game thing
not exact standing but the 2nd image is meant to be at night
my entire character model changed...
the first was when kresjah was white screening 
and I'm wearing a purple grid.... lol
just reload like change area and itll reset back
it might set you to the default palia character model but you can fix that in jels
some users relog but that also might save it and lead to a trip to jels
okay. that worked but yeah what lol thats the first time its happened
hopefully the last! but fear not if it happens again its free to fix it ingame ❤️
I bought the nameplate, and the wallpaper vanished from the shop, and now I don't have an option to buy the wallpaper.
Anyone else have this problem?
just found out about the festival its so charming how long does it stick around for
I will try but just forewarning that there's a lot of development that happens and I can't guarantee I will see / communicate every step along the way. But I did put the ticket on my watchlist.
Of course. As said, I understand that we can't be privvy to every little piece of it. Just asking for enough morsels that we know that things are progressing on something that has been rather critical.
so... the game doesnt save settings thats erm fun
And that we have a rough timeframe at least.
Completely unrelated to all that white screen talk, are there supposed to be "new" chests here now? I see people talking about chests, but I don't see any at the market at all.
Or are they linked to the regular market, so if you've got the regular market chests there won't be LNY ones?
maybe when market times? or maybe they doing the christmas chest act and you need to leave re enter go home come back etc 
looks at chest
Umm, pretend I didn't say any of that.
"Treasure Chests: Search high and low to unveil all the secret chests hidden in new locations with new rewards."
not sure if they are new ones or if they are the same as last years, tho.
oh. nevermind kek 
shame
shhh disk






Oi! 😄
Is this Palia's new slogan?
for me yes
New? 
i just whacked everything to 0 and honestly ive accpeted my fate
just be careful with putting "effects" onto "0", because it will make some flashes more severe and bright.
like fireworks. 
ty for the reminder
i jsut wish it saved my actual settings cant see nothing
of course. gotta look out for the friends.
And agree. i didnt realize it didnt save settings. im so sorry that sucks
Honestly, this is ridiculous. How is this still a problem? It's been like 4 months.
Floating
The maji plant lantern light things, still cant be placed on anything but the floor, too. :(
eh maybe they can hotfix it always gotta give em a chance
i think i saw another person with an outfit that gave them elf ears? is that a thing or am i seeing things 
I don't think that's how climbing works
At least you can place 'em with glitching still. Can't glitch wall items onto the floor.
True but i also dont like glitching. Or well, I just dont' do it. too complicated for myself! That aside, I am glad that is at least an option for some people!
invisible velcro kneepads?
Thickest invisible kneepads ever
@granite crag @umbral lynx Seems like same points rules, just different values.
ahhh i was wondering while i crawl my way out from under the map
im very much stuck and i refuse to give up
cant take me outside my plot for anything
Calling fire department.
My game crashed >:C
Noticed that... you're usually quick
😭
Table going shiny again
how is it i get out from under the map and you crash.... maybe a sign?
now it wont let me in ur server full >:C
CCan try server hopping yto yuours
if yall want
Just need to wait for game to notice you've accepted. 😂
Pfff- server being dumb I see
me trying to catch chappas and you summoning me
I got the forbidden hand
I did but it returned once I exited and re-entered the shop a few times.
that's using the ol' noodle
is the gold spin on the wheel only suppose to give 200 envelopes? the other ticket spots have given me 400 or more?
Does anyone know when we get the obsidian Kitsuu in the shop I just brought the ancient one and saw it so just curious :3
Nevermind I thought it was a time limited one! Glad it isn’t
I wasn't prepared for noods of this quality 🙂
Not sure, I have only gotten 200 from it so far.
have you heard about me and my hand of mushrooms?
I bet its a trip.
has anyone tried to get a star quality hotpot takeout from reth's store yet? that was bugged last year right?
Yeah i feel like its a bug? cause i got 400 tickets from the other ticket spot i feel maybe its suppose to be 2000?
#🏡│decor message seems to be rectified this year
Haven't heard that.
from the stall though if I want more than the stamp card gives?
I usually keep a few of each star food for decorating different plots, even if I dont end up using them all
I bought some and it was star quality
thanks! 
you’re who i meant to respond to 🙃
lol stop it that's hilarious.
what can i say? i’m a fun guy. hang out on the porcini with me for a while and i’m sure to make you laugh.
Nice one.
unafraid to be proud of it, came up with it on my own.
hello kresjah i hope you are doing well c:
confirming that i also only got 200 envelopes from the gold spot on the wheel
I'm gonna go with apparently it's a feature then 😦 I was so excited I thought I was gonna get 2k lol
definitely seems like a bug yea?
i dunno, i never got it last year so i'm not sure if it's different
my other prizes were all gold
It was a good one.
Hi! And well... the horrors persist, but so do I 
Hopefully you're doing okay.
iirc last year it was random cuz i never for the same amount? i could be wrong tho it has been a while
guys, what's the stickers, was it worse than I thought?
most messages I see from last year are saying it was 3k envelopes for the jackpot. I see one that says 2k-3k and one that says they got 2k. so looks like 2000-3000 was the consensus for last year
sucks if it's 200 this year and less than the other spots
I just enjoy something in both markets being broken each time (pop chapaa tickets didnt count correctly) now that is broken too.
Yep ive gotten it a few times 200 each time, the other ticket spot ive gotten 400, and 800
last LNY was broken too lol it was same minigames as this year but the stall stuff and stamp cards had problems 
Where do you get Luna coins and wish ribbons
You will get a wish ribbon in the mail each irl day.
Coins come from purchasing items at the market.
Question! Does the Safe zone speed booster make the reeling go faster, or it's just right-left speed?
Right-Left, the safe zone itself 
What do wish ribbons do? I wished for gold but nothing happened lol
Once you make the wish and return the next time to the market it will be ready to collect.
Blue - luck - lucky envelopes
Pink - longevity - renown
Orange - prosperity - gold coins
Sorry if I've missed the memo, But when is Zeki's loyalty card available ?
"Players can expect Zeki’s Loyalty Club to launch later in the patch."
https://palia.com/news/patch-188
they've ballparked early next month but don't have a date to share right now
Tahnk you 🙂
Hmm I turned in the wish but nothing happened when I came back to the market :/
There’s nothing in the wish thingie
it's the big pot looking thing to the left of where you put one up, just a few steps away
I love the new market, and I'm super happy Tamala s cauldron works again but good grief the quest boxes are huge now, it's 1/3rd of my screen. 😮
i kinda like the size
I'm glad! Hahaha. I wish it was adjustable.
Why is there still Christmas decorations
Where? It's spring theme for me now.
why not 
In the town there’s trees and gifts still for me
Huh. That's so weird. I'm on PC are you on Switch?
Yeah, There is for me too, i also had the seasons reset to fall yesterday, i assume its a bug
Nope PC too, I’ll try reinstall the game fully
tuesday AM there was originally going to be a patch, so their winter event ran out but the 'fall' was still default. with today's patch it should have put back the snow and such for everyone
It’s still Christmas for me too. I’m on switch
Have y'all installed the updates? (I have no idea how switch updates work)
you gotta hit the + button and manually update it on switch
there's usually an error connecting if your game client doesn't match the version of the server. but it might be different points - i again have the Winterlights deco in Kilima, but my character showed a very spring-y background when I was logging in, is that the difference?
my game is definitely updated and it's there for me too on PC. it might have been purposeful because of people not being able to play while snowball flash was a thing... although the other white screen problem is still there atm
Yup. You're right. I'm dumb. lol.
no worries! we're all here to have fun 
The tool switching glitch is even worse than it was before.
Yeah it installed automatically
Well crap.
Okay, logging in to see what else they broke, lol
I can't water flow trees on my plot anymore, just the flow trees. Lol. Going to go log it now.
I just want the sound back on the hotspots while fishing 
This is the 3rd update it's not been working.
Literally I can’t use any tool more than once before it glitches.
Well, I got no ribbon for the market. THANKS S6!
did you just log in?
See if it comes in your mailbox at 6am
it's almost 6am in game atm.
theyll arrive in your mail at 6am/pm
Yeah, I'll wait a bit and see what happens. I thought the patch said log in once per real day, not Palia day
Is the loyalty card not available yet?
nope
and got it. Thanks! I assumed there was another bug, lol
Soon 
did the sticker thing get implemented?
no, they said that'll be in patch 0.189 so next time
We also have the halloween register haha
now that I didnt notice 
Wait we have both? I saw the Christmas register!!!
I noticed yesterday cause a friend showed me her new house and she had many floating candles, and i was like "daaarn i should've bought more!" and then i went to zeki's and saw the register was still there xDD
Yes yesterday it was Halloween store, after patch it reverted to winter again.
I guess they couldn't deactivate it.
ohh 😦
Same here! I’m glad it’s not just me though 😅
From the yellow jackpot you get 200 tickets (and random item?) from the blue sector 800 tickets? Or are all sectors just random?
Im pretty sure its a bug, I asked people who played last year and they all said it was 2k-3k for gold. Cause it doesnt make sense you get more from the other ticket spot (i think up to 1k) but gold is 200
can always bug report it, if it's intended they'll know
not necessarily support but the devs when it gets forwarded lol
How long will the new madrinas drink be available?
We do?????
Good morning everyone TGIF!
New Plan
S6 wants to limit us to 1 of each item - fine 
Step 1: Expand army of alternative accounts. 



Step 2: Run said army through Maji-Market stamp card.
Step 3 Don't shut up about trading being expanded to all decor items till they do it
I like this plan.
While we're at it, can we keep asking for the ability to receive more quest reward furniture without having to ||use dupe bugs|| too?
This plan would actually solve that - because you could just run the content again & trade the items to your main. 
But also - ||shhhh we don't talk about that bug in public.||
Fair enough lol. I'd also just like the ability to claim quest reward furniture from the Quest items tab, as long as we're on our plot. Or just have those quests give us recipes for said furniture.
I wish the makeshift stuff gave us the recipe when we caught the pieces, and then awarded no doubles when fishing. I loathe the rng
This, or I'd love for Tish to sell us the recipe to make a workstation where you can exchange 2-3 of a piece of SV or Makeshift furniture to receive a recipe for it.
Kind of like a "Blueprint machine". You put the furniture in there, it shreds it up and turns it into a recipe.
Yeah - I mean in my tiny perfect world
Every quest would be like:
⭐ "Ancient Grudge -New Mutiny" ,
or
⭐ Hodari/Najuma's T4 Friendship quest
{It's very early for me so forgive me if I'm forgetting any others
but I think those are the only quests that grant recipes** at this time**.}
Funny enough I actually submitted a similar idea to the feedback forum as a "New Feature" 
I even did a sketch of what the UI could look like
What would you also think of us being able to have the crafted SV/MS furniture be "different" than the stuff we get from Zeki Coins/Fishing? Like, it'd be a different item ID but identical in looks. That way you could break down and study the RNG furniture but not stuff you crafted. That would leave room for another workstation.
Recipe Roulette Machine - Insert a furniture recipe into this machine for a 50% chance to receive a different recipe from the same furniture pool.
That way if you keep getting a lot of the same kind of duplicate furniture, you can turn it into other recipes from the same item pool.
(Also, what if we made the SV/MS recipes tradeable? That would be preeeeeeetty neat!)
Not even just decor items. I wanna trade fish to my friends who can not fish due to the game mechanics and get sweet leaf in exchange...
Though trading event decor would be great due to the games current state (white screen still here baby and my display settings are not saving so I'm blinded by the light)
Trading and requests can both exist for the same items one you can do for free other you can do in exchange
I'd definitely be in favor of a bartering system with no gold involved. The current donation system just doesn't work. I think a barter system where we can exchange one item for one or more items of an equivalent gold price (Within 10% of the other item's value) would be fair.
Oh the system I proposed included all of the RNG drops in it
🪄
That's why there are 6 slots
Depending on how hard the decor piece was to obtain. Would scale the number you would need to breakdown to learn the recipe.
⭐ If you can just go to the Winterlights Pop-up store & buy them for gold - you would need to breakdown 6
⭐ Purchase them for tickets at the Maji-Market - Breakdown 5
⭐ RNG Drop - Breakdown 2 to 4 [It can't be THAT easy, but it could also depend on which RNG drop we talking about? Zekki ball, waterlogged chest, or Pirate Item?}
⭐ Then of course since you only get 1 unique item - you would break down 1 to get it's recipe
Yeah I could definitely see something like this working. Especially if there's an option to put quest furniture/unique legendary furniture in there as well.
Obviously better limitations that what current trading has. But I think like common for common rare for rare etc as well. Maybe as far as the star items due to the achievements people can not get since again some skills just don't work for them a nice middle ground which no one is actually forced to do or use it's just a option to help other players
I could see players uptrading or downtrading too if they just gave an equal amount of value of that less valuable/rare item.
Like, what if I have a bunch of sweet leaf and I want a Dari clove? I think it would be fair if the other player wants my sweet leaves for his dari cloves. They might just need to adjust the sell-to-shop prices for some items.
That's up to the players.
Same how if we could trade decor we know aunis jar quest reward would be the holy grail and you'd need to make some offerings
I'm honestly not sure how I feel about trading quest rewards because at the moment you can only get those once unless you make alts which feels bad.
I think quest rewards should either be craftable once the quest is done OR you can claim as many as you want from an interface or from that NPC.
Same with the makeshift items :/ which is another thing is highly wanted for trading
Unfortunately while I'd like trading, we've seen even trading plushies has had its fair share of controversy. So I feel like S6 is going to be extremely careful in the future if they want to allow trading of anything else.
& as well the entire system would be optional - so the players that could care less about recipes {because they exist - and are just as valid as those that care about recipes} don't have to interact with this system if they don't want to.
They can continue with things as they are, & just move like a ship in the night 
We would get what we want & they wouldn't be forced to craft everything.
I feel like s6 has underestimated people's wants and needs sometimes.
Like majority of the users are capable of deciding what they like and don't like. Alot of users say they don't care for the decor aspect of palia so why can't they exchange it for something they do enjoy instead
Ngl this is me personally pushing cas I'm basically outta luck when it comes to lny and I want må plant 
Oi bring that back Herpn
Don't remind me
I'm still abit salty from last night
You know what I'd like to see? A Plushie crafting system that also uses Animal Husbandry. Hear me out...
1.) We get Pekis with Animal Husbandry for useful byproducts like eggs. Since birds moult their feathers, one of those byproducts could be Peki Down.
2.) S6 gives us a study machine like the furniture study machine @stuck oar mentioned where we can destroy "x" amount of plushie for a recipe of that plushie.
- 10 Plushies for commons.
- 5 Plushies for uncommons.
- 3 Plushies for rares.
- 1 Plushie for legendaries.
3.) These recipes would be tradeable and be fairly expensive to craft but HIGHLY sought after.
4.) At 30 Furniture Crafting, we could buy a "Build-a-Buddy" machine from Tish (From the guild store with tokens).
5.) The build-a-buddy machine would allow us to use Peki Down and materials of different rarities depending on the tier of plushie we're making to make a new plushie from that recipe.
Side note I'm yoinking some of this for feedback I hope that's OK 
Of course 🙂
You to tiny of the dragons 
What I wouldn't give to have a week to sit down and explain every feeling I have about it... there would need to be drinks.
100% {that may or may not be why I posted it in detail
}
I think it all got complicated by a handful of things. Doing business with Nintendo, the sheer volume of players that showed up, not predicting that in a world where MMOs commonly encourage people to speedrun they might run out of content in record time...
And I don't think the people that dreamed all of this up with starry-eyed good intention survived the layoffs
I'm more sad than mad about it. The industry breathes this way and breeds this way. We started all of this rooting for the underdog and that's hard to let go of
Honestly just getting these ideas off of my chest and into someone's head rent-free is enough for me
ya know... I didn't want to call bs on this shot... but I really should have...
adding it to the spreadsheet
Aye
It's another instance of - "I can do it... but it'll be like putting a pump on a ham"
Hi, question... after the patch... I can't water my flowtrees... please help
If you build a new plot does all your items goes back into the inventory or you can get double storage capacity? (talking about chests)
boo, okay thank you ❤️
No In H menu you can have multiple slots, what will happen with all the items in chest?
Can you have multiple slos with 8+3 or they all connected
Those patchnotes could've been an email....
you have unlimited decor storage -
for star quality items there are protections in place for some items, but in theory they are not there for others
(I haven't tested this as I have not felt brave enough to risk any of my starstones}
You can have more than 8 storage chests across all of your plots - you are just limited to 8 on one plot. If that is what you are asking.
okay! 😄
Like I have my 8 Iron storage chests {for the capacity} But I prefer the look of the copper chest for working into my designs - so I usually have a few of them on hand.
Whelp I was just standing on my plot AFK and got whitescreened. No idea what triggered. It was 7:20 in-game, so not a time change.
Just being afk is in itself a trigger it seems- has happened to me as well
@livid lagoon did alot of looking into it since he can get it to trigger constantly
Man's risking it all 
that seems more of a vid card issue
me three
We've had folks across many different computers with various hardware and devices see it happening, even those with higher performance pcs
you get it on switch too
can't say its not till it's comfirmed have seen this with vid cards. usually its a setting or just bad patch.
So you think every player in this game has had a video card issue for the last 6 months?
9 months
make it 9 
every player gets the same vid card updates as everyone else so its a possibility
and somehow include the switch in that 
So... now we're suggesting that every player has the same hardware?
ugh you people never understand, lets not get technical, and start trying to take out that it could POSSIBLY be a vid card issue it can be a game issue to.
It's been going on for quite a long time and it's not a full display error. The UI is not completely affected. Controls are affected. If it were a hardware issue it would be distributed differently.
you cant just point a finger at the game because it may not be working properly thats foolish.
Don't have to point a finger. WizardCrab himself has acknowledged the issue.
hmmm works fine for me
There it is
It's going on my bingo card
"It works fine for me so it can't possibly be broken." If I had a nickel....
so a few people are having a problem you automatically assume everyone is having the problem
"A few people." Are you new here?
Anyway lol
No luv. You've automatically assumed that since you have no knowledge of the issue that these people, several of which spend their time helping players fix technical issues over the last many years, must be wrong.
idk if you are here to poke at stuff, but it’s been talked about for a while, it was a bug that happened last year and they fixed but it’s back, ppl that have reported it (more than a few) have given specs in their reports WC mentioned this and they are currently working on it as priority cuz it’s a safety concern for most of the player base
not attacking but clarifying as it’s not only a few ppl, players quit playing over this
I have been here for years. When I have questions, these are the people I ask. They know what they're talking about.
goodness, look i said it could possibly be a hardware issue no need for the butthurtness.
Different video cards are producing the same effect, so no a hardware issue.
The game, which not labelled correctly, is a beta. Bugs happen. For months (like what was it spring or summer?) I couldn't water or gain flow seeds. Now hey look at that more people can't interact with flow trees on their plots.
The white screen of death is a on going problem for the majority å quick search on the discord can show it and it happens across devices and launchers many players have invested efforts into helping finding the triggers and the cause, within reason, bugs happen we live, laugh, suffer through them. At best we get a few haha funny outta it 
Ok, but we already told you why it isn't and also that the devs have acknowledged it's an issue with the game. So at this point I have to assume you're trolling.
no one’s butt hurt , all just trying to to clarify that it’s not
tfw tone is hard to tell over text
trying or figuring it out if its not and how to determin if its not
yes i often forget the indicators 😅
Their reaction says it all.
Me who never uses them
since I dumb dumb 
yup and that’s up to the devs to figure out as i mentioned WC said the team has it prioritized now
palia is just weirdly optimized and the code is also odd. so who knows what is causing the issue at this point
It's being very seriously investigated because it make the game unsafe for people with photosensitivity issues. And that means the smarty folk here are looking into it as much as they can as well.
Been gone from the game for nine months, came back to check out the state of the game. Glad to see the community still warring over bugs 😂
Has there been any meaningful content/gameplay added since last year?
any game you play can pose that potential, its not the games fault but people who choose to play.
Not really. Aside from trading plushies.
not really imo. lunar new year is back and some wedding decor was added but its not really great
aight buddy, then tell me why i have no issues in any other game but this one
depends on what’s content for you, lots of decor some temples and quests but we’re waiting for more
mosty just filler until elderwoods is here
Shame, this game had potential. Thank you, back to hiatus I go! Wheeee!
dang bro dipped that quick
i have had problem likes this turned out to be vid card issue, and settings i was using.
I appreciate your enthusiasm, but that soapbox is empty aside from the termites.
I just read what I read and gonna peace out good luck but nanaaa
but anyway its not always a video card issue or such
not even just tech things -- basic human empathy too. oh well
Oh well it's your own fault you're being insulted for logging into a public forum /s
cool that its working fine for you but uh, not everyone's systems is like yours or you havent gotten the white screen yet either. game graphic issues can be both sides too and all
so i dont really see the point of discussing this. people are trying to find a solution, maybe some systems are acting weird or the games code is being weird. at the base of it all, people are going to get hurt from it
No no, it's their own fault for logging in to play a game they previously had no issue playing that suddenly has a blinding flash of light without warning. Gosh yall. It's like you don't even know that I previously had skill issues and therefore so do you all.
Okay that's my snark dump. I feel better.
i dont get when people start talking and then just leave...
hopefully they realized they're wrong - or in the least in the wrong place to be speaking such mean things
My best guess is, they seeked to cause a reaction, obtained it, realised they weren't getting away with it and left.
people love doing that with discussions of all channels for some reason
try to have discussion, but sometimes it stirs things bad like what happened here, maybe they were being genuine in trying to help with the card issue, came off as rude cuz of text talking , left . just like when ppl don’t want to see more of a convo they dip out
I don't really understand this response. This game has been advertised as inclusive and cosy, etc. imho, when a game is advertised as such, it's fair to assume you won't encounter anything that can give you headaches/migraines, sensory overload, or even life-threatening for some. Also, it definitely is the games fault when there are no proper warnings when it comes to this-- that is, again, the fault of the game.
That aside, WC has mentioned that this specific issue is a priority now, and has gotten data from some helpful people over this specific problem.
I understand that you are saying you haven't encountered it, but that honestly, can change. I say this, because people who say they haven't gotten it, randomly did for no reason. It seems very sporadic. It has happened across multiple devices, too.
This has, again like people mentioned, has been occuring for months. As shown here: https://support.palia.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/26020223771412-White-Screen-While-Playing-Palia-0-179
I usually have an immunity to that stuff but victim blaming the disabled is pretty much my tripwire. At least when I haven't had coffee today.
I also want to point out, someone in the past, has also talked about how it could of been a hardware or video card issue. Also claimed they didn't have this happen to them, so they were chucking it to that. ... Same day, hours later, they ended up with the white screen bug.
I didn't have it happen to me for months up until the other day. After literally 5 minutes of being in the game.
FAAFO I guess. Palia bugs eventually come for us all
I still haven't had it happen to me (yet), but I know it's very sporadic, and it doesn't invalidate it happening to other people.
So far I've been lucky enough to only get whitescreened on house tours so I've just stopped doing them
i havent gotten the screen bug yet either. but i also havent been playing much
tbf if i wasn’t in here a lot to see all the issues and just played the game, i’d have the mentality a little bit “oh it only happens to a few ppl” cuz weird things do happen in games where i either had something happen to me or knew someone else who was bugged (usually with quests tho) but i think where mostly everyone has it that there’s a lot of attention to it, might have some sense of truth and not ppl making it up
same most i have is an hour so i don’t usually try to reproduce bugs, only time i did was when gales kept getting the ladder bugs so i’d try to help ppl figure out which way to go
I personally haven't experienced most bugs people have (such as teleporting furniture, character bugging out, etc) but I 100% don't doubt the claims people make, specially when it's multiple people complaining about the same issue and when it's partially acknowledged by the devs (or WC in this case).
It's just basic empathy too. I don't have photosensitive issues but I still find it concerning for people who do and the game putting their health at risk.
Hello, I have two things:
-
This is just an annoyance. When playing Chapaa Chase, there are people with pets and outfits that resemble the Chapaa (some actually have a Chapaa as part of the outfit), and it makes it frustrating to chase one down. Or you think they have one in their hand, then yoink the one you’re about to take. 😭
-
Unless I’m missing something, I went through all the stamp card rewards, and none of those grant the fireworks wallpaper. When I go to the register that sells it, it says requirements not met, but I don’t have any quests for it? I am confusion.
yea i don’t doubt them either , cuz i had weird stuff happen in other games as mentioned but something like this never so i don’t go telling ppl “no it’s not happening” or “oh it’s cuz of this” unless i can link to something stating it
I tried to have it happen to me via house tours, since there's been a handful of ppl say that is what's happened to them consistently, but alas lol
But like, again, i know it is happening to others. It's why I appreciate people like, fern, who has kept an (updated) list about the causes, etc etc. And I appreciate the people who have taken time to try to help others with these problems, or even like Kresjah, who did their best to go through data, etc to send to WC.
I get it. Most players have no idea how this stuff works. I absorbed enough to hold my own over the years, but I'm no expert. It just went from "Maybe not guys" to "You're assuming things and must be wrong" to "Well it's their own fault for logging in" so special circumstances
Someone else had the same issue (I believe Theoden) last night.
I struggle getting just 1 chapaa. 
The fireworks wallpaper issue? I attended LNY last year, so all quests have been completed.
“Redeemable for 4000 Lucky Evelopes at Zeki’s Lucky Catch” is all i got
not in game yet so idk more than that
Yeah, even if this guy was doing it in good faith, him trying to deny it because it's not happened to him is just dismissive to say the least. Either he has an impressive system or S6 has their favorites /s
trying to also get these twitch drops done, but it twitch being twitch and bugging out to not give me progress. This is why i really dont like twitch drops that feel like my time isn't valued. 
They really need to up the respawn rate.
@hollow crescent It’ll show “Requirements Not Met,” the same message for if you haven’t completed a quest or reach a certain level skill, etc.
Trying not to rant about how we begged them to fix this from the first Maji Market event, they fixed it, then reverted it when they did an unnecessary remodel on the terrain that also brought with it new and exciting problems...
Let me look it up, I attended it too so I might as well go and check if the same happens to me. I know there's always been issues with the stamp card quests achievements so wouldn't be surprised it happened again.
The chapaa chase is also a pain cuz i've tried to get just 1 chapaa, and i will randomly start talking to Sifuu. like, ma'am, i love ya, but i gotta get this little rodent for envelopes 
It really upsets me so much because they literally had it fixed for LNY after people complained so much during the first Maji Market. Only for them to revert it again this year.
@mossy mica #💬│palia-discussions message Apparently their specific issue is that the wallpaper doesn't appear available anymore after purchasing the nameplate. So there's also that 
Apparently some people work around it when they leave and reenter not sure how good of a hotfix that is so 
Still worth trying though, I might try it later on when I am burnt out of Nikki.
Chillyfix
I haven’t purchased the nameplate, as I haven’t had enough tickets. I’m not at my computer anymore, so I forgot what it said after “Requirements Not Met,” but it’s the same concept of not finishing a prerequisite….so then, what IS the prerequisite I need to do? 😭
Yeah, I’ve caught over 30 chapaas in a single chase before during LNY 2024 on various occasions. This time + regular Maji Market, I’m lucky to get 10-12.
Luke warm at best fix 
To buy the name plate iirc it's the get in my belly 3 which is win hotpot x amount of times
that reminds me, i won hotpot earlier by getting all the yellow veggies
i felt like i was the protector of them all 
Easy to rig with a group of people to speedrun it... Not saying friends should or shouldn't cas play the game how you want but not everyone has time or accessibility 
I don’t want the name plate (not right now, lmfao), I’m just stating that the wallpaper is saying I have not met the requirements to buy it, and I don’t know why.
I'll attempt it later on and see what happens, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's really bugged 
Hmm I don't recall a gated on the wallpaper sounds like the game just confused
wouldn't shock me at this point I only looked at the stores after doing the intro market quest via kenli so unsure if that effects the buyables
make sure to bug report it if you haven’t
Yeah the tour store loads two items at best for me half the time even with spam refreshing it for ages 
I was hoping that'd be addressed since isn't the store missing items even when you reload/create the weird dupe items list?
Thank you all. I’ll have to do that later, as I have to get ready for work. That said, you can only visit the registers during 6PM-3AM, so I can’t even run to the market now to get a screenshot of the message. For things that I don’t have enough tickets for, it’ll just show that item with the ticket cost outlined in red. But this one is different. 🤷🏽♀️ I actually like this wallpaper, and it’s a change from the ones that are too bright/light or too obnoxious. 
I get the errrr
to load in the tour store fine. But anything else just doesn't exist to me which is fine I don't do tours to buy much but at this point I could see whatever bug thst is leaking out to others and their stores.
Just like how people can enjoy the pain I have for months with flow trees (this is a joke I do not actually enjoy it but I have had months of not being able to water/grow/seed trees it isn't fun)
Nice Diskette you went and played the game and it's thusly your fault people are experiencing this bug more now!
This reminds me of a similar bug that happened to someone I used to know, only with gazebos. They had reached the requirement for purchasing them, got their free one but weren't able to purchase more from city hall, it only showed "requirements not met". They were locked out of purchasing more gazebos for months until it was fixed
Obviously there’s no rules, but I’d much rather people leave the rigging, spam pot, and table hoarding to the underground. 😅😭
Well, it seems like ppl who actually try spampot, get like no rewards. at least at LNY.
Yes yes my master plan 
At least, people in the chat mentioned they got nothing when they did spampot 
It'd make sense considering in LNY you get tickets based on your hand. Which is why in the first LNY people would complain if you played "dirty hands".
At least from what I recall, I haven't attempted playing this year yet.
I don't even know what some of that means. I just play with what i see and im like "oh this matches, i do this, whatever happens happens" 
Oh yeah didn't they "fix" spampot? Is this just at market or everywhere? Shocked I'm not seeing more rhetoric on this, unless they're all in other servers lol
For me I don't mind as I stated with friends I don't think randoms unorganised jumping in is all that fun for anyone
I won't convince a table to play the way I want cas that's wrong to do.
But say I have a friend who hasn't had time to play you bet we speeding that with some other friends so we can panic together and have some fun
Luckily, I’ve been on cozy LNY servers. This game has enough bugs and people fighting, like for all ours sakes, keep the shenanigans out of the Kilima Fair Grounds. 🤣
So a "dirty hand" is when you do 1 ingredient of each instead of 3 of a kind. Some people wanted to maximise the number of tickets or something by only doing 3 of a kind hands.
Most people this year don't seem to know there's a difference between LNY and Underground hotpot
Not sure if it's like that in underground cuz i dont really go there. But i've at least seen it mentioned at the market! haha

Yeah I concurr. I loved LNY hotpot, Underground hotpot was just a grindfest.
LNY still somewhat is but it's much more rewarding since it's not locked behind the RNG Wheel of Doom.
Could not agree more! My whole struggle today is trying to get a table to myself because I need me some tokens!
Just double checking, so you were saying the Fireworks wallpaper wasn't letting you purchase it?
I don't see any requirements on it for me. And i've done no quests
I hit the “jackpot” during LNY, which is only 200 tickets double the amount of times I’ve hit the jackpot in the underground. 🤣
At least with lny you can have fun when a friend steals a card
(again humor among friends no one steals nothing it's joke and good times)
(And this is the nameplate's requirements)
i see i take 
I'll steal it! No one will ever know! 

Kira is sneaky with all them bees around
I bet they spying on our hands 
Not me counting cards in hotpot of course 
Which that's fine. I was more so saying like what if someone joined your table that didn't know you were trying to play with friends. That's led to so much discourse, and I even was on the wrong end of that once (even though I was at the hotpot table BEFORE 6 PM). It was so irritating.
I try to actively avoid things I see people take cas 1 someone has to win 2 we all get the tokens for buying stuff 
I'm so sorry, I thought it was saying that for the fireworks, and not the nameplate. It's been....a week, and I'm just highly stressed. Ignore me. 🥹 I'll be under a rock for the next 3-5 business years.
I mean, that's fine! Now you know, and I am glad i got to check for you!
Totes agree there 
heck yeah let's go spinnin' that wheel 
Time to clock in and pretend to care.
May rng bless you all and may your display settings save 
I got this when getting the blue section. It's like the reverse of the Underground prize wheel....where I just get ingrediencts and sadness.


appreciate u
