Miscellaneous: Starter Zone Issue

[Arakash]

Toxxulia forest seems a bit off since the July update. The Paineel side of Toxx forest is fine. But the Erudin side has a dearth of mobs other than an excess of diseased rats. Before the July update, there were mobs on the Erudin side that seemed non-classic but now there are almost no mobs other than diseased rats. I started in Toxx forest back in 2000 or so and it's so close to what it was like back then I hate to even mention this but something seems off.

In addition, the lighting in the zone does not change unless you zone. If you enter at night it is DARK, which I love because it's classic. But it stays dark throughout the day. If you enter during the day its murky green. Again classic but it stays that way even at night. Unless you zone in and out.

It's worth noting that many lighting issues are caused by the Titanium client, which means the staff can't fix them unless they switch to another client (which would break hundreds of other things). There might still be a way for the devs to fix the "lighting not changing until you zone" part, but just be aware that it also might be an unfix-able limitation of the client.

EDIT: Sorn just explained in the other thread that this is a known (and evidently fix-able) issue, so please ignore the above.
