Ok so it's seem we are going to get magic races but only with a few spells to start with. It will take time to have it all but it will be worth the wait. Older Alicians help him out kay?
(Magic Races - The Beginning: Ice and Boosters. Starting from this week we begin to work on Magic races. And today we introduce the first implemented magic items - Ice and Boosters. Unlike the Speed races, reconstruction of the Magic races requires quite a lot of work. Each magic item is a separate object, having its own logic, which has to be programmed individually, making the Magic races one of the most sophisticated parts of the game. Nevertheless we plan to complete implementation of all the magic items in a couple of weeks. During this time experienced players can help us with testing the newly added magic items, and the beginner players can gradually learn how to use the new magic step by step. The Booster gives you acceleration for a few seconds, and the Ice, on the other hand, slows you down if you run into it. You obtain a magic item every time your magic bar fills up. Also you can find magic items directly on the track. Let's check it out~)

Hi guys, summing everything up, we got npc races now! I am so happy, finally a worthy challenge to make me go play the game 8'D Yes I dont play games that offer no challenge what so ever but I remember the last NPC being super difficult so yes, mi gonna start practicing. You should too!!!
(Dear Alicians! Welcome the bots! Today for the first time you will be able to compete with computer controlled players in Speed racing. Select the Game - Training - Speed Practice menu to start. Computer players surely can not fully replace humans, however it is quite a challenging task to win them on the high difficulty levels, and it may help you a lot in practicing the racing skills. You can change the difficulty level in the bottom of the map selection menu. The amount of EXP that you get for each race depends on your place and selected difficulty. NPC racing functionality is the basis of the future multiplayer racing system and therefore it may take some time to reconstruct it in full details. And we believe, that with your help we will be able to make it work exactly the way it originally was~ So let's have some fun with the npc racers!) Hey hey everyone,
Today there is a new update, we are now able to check the shop, we cannot buy stuff yet, and we are able to change clothes on the game. One step closer to awesomeness! BTW forget the title pls.... <Dear Alicia fans~ Today we are adding the Inventory system. You are now able to change your outfits and horse armor directly from the game using the "Items" menu, without having to restart the game. From the technical point of view the Inventory system should be added and properly tested before the Shop can be introduced, and you are now able to help us with it. To make this process more comprehensive, we have added a new clothes set (top+bottom) and two hairstyles to your inventory. Now each basic inventory tab contains at least two different items, so that you are able to combine elements from different sets together. Bonus: Now you can also enter the Shop. Although you can not actually buy anything there yet, but you can put on different clothes and make a screenshot while being in the shop. Try to find you own favorite style and share it with others~> Dear players!
We are glad to inform you that all the necessary server adjustments have been completed successfully. This means that now we can start working on the most interesting and the most important part of the game - the racing functionality. We do know that all of you are waiting for the multiplayer races. But before it becomes available, all the underlying functionality should be implemented. Each new function brings us closer to our dream~ And today we are adding the horseshoe system. Horseshoes are very important during speed racing, as they give you additional boost, needed to win the race. Now you are able to practice this skill - we hope you like this new functionality. P.S. If you played Alicia before, you might be able to help us with the development now. Unlike the other map elements, the horseshoes were fully controlled from the server, so it has been a real challenge for us to decode their exact position from the logs. Luckily, almost all the maps have been recovered completely. Only two maps are missing: "Amis City" and "Pheobe fields". Currently the horseshoes on those two maps are positioned approximately. In order to improve the precision, we need high-quality videos of those two maps (speed mode) recorded from different angles. If you got the related videos - feel free to send it to the page admins, this will help us a lot to improve the game~ This Woman's Day is being wierd for me yet good... I think... Well we can now play a Speed Race in Training. Things are getting close but still much to do. Keep it up Alicia Team.
Dear Alicians! We want to congratulate all our female players with the Woman's Day and for this occasion we have prepared a very special update. Now you are able to enjoy a full speed ride in training mode. At the moment the following functionality is implemented: Time Practice mode, Dashes, Boosters and the very first summer track "Sheep Farm". In the very nearest future the functionality of the training mode will be extended, but even at the current development state it might bring you a lot of great feeling. How to play in Training Mode: Select the menu Game - Training, after that select any mode (in any case the Time Practice will be selected), To start the race click the big button with the running horse or just press F10. Jumping over the obstacles and performing dashes, you can fill the horseshoe scale on the left. As soon as you obtain several horseshoes, press Ctrl button to activate Booster, and then your horse will run really fast~ Ok, so when I mencioned delayed updates it is purely my fault. I haven't been very, how can I explain, into this... like keep up with the website and post the updates, even stay at the game for hours at least to chat. That doesn't mean I wouldn't answer peoples questions, for me doing that is the biggest disrespect. I do not know why this is happening, it just seems I need something new to do so I am pondering about really making another tutorial website for Black Desert Online. I have been playing it recently mixed with some lvling in Tera and ok the game needs more PvP for me, not excitment up until now but either way I quite enjoy the game. So if someone plays Black Desert Online, can you please say if this would be a good idea or not? If I will do it, I'll keep up for the NA version. Now for the thing you all prefer to read, I am posting the dates and the updates I have missed right now, and I know that for many I most say - I am terribly sorry.
Hey hey everyone!
New update! The chat system is available! Time to overload the game with spam and... no really don't spam.... but have a nice time with you friends at the game! The guild chat isn't yet available case there are no guilds yet but it will be when the system is added. "Hello Alicia fans~ Starting from today, you will be able to communicate with each other in the game. There are now two chat channels available - global and ranch. The ranch channel is also made common for now, while the portal is not activated. The guild channel will be available for you as soon as the guild system is ready. This is the very first test version of the chat system and it is not running full speed yet. So you may expect 1-5 second delay when sending a message, and it is absolutely normal. Later the chat system will be significantly optimized and run much faster, but even now it is quite sufficient for communication~ If you are new to the game, please pay attention to the lower right corner of the chat tab, where you can find amazing smilies wink emoticon " Today the Alicia Team gave us a new update. We can now select our horse mark and other features similar to the character creation.
We've tested and it is running very well, the Max features make the horse a little Shire alike but not much and the Tiniest... I'll let the pictures talk for themselves... Oh before the pics, in order to have this option you have to go to your profile page and select "My horse" on your left, don't worry if you don't see the features, just start writing a name and it will appear. "Dear Alicia players!Today each of you can get your own horse! Open "My horse" page in your profile, and give your horse a name. You will then be able to select a forehead mark and the following physical parameters: overall horse size, neck size, legs length, front and back weight. Moreover, below you will find 3 basic + Christmas armor sets! Have a good time together with your own horse~ " Hey guys,
Seems like today we will be able to select our character name ** But for more info please read what Mlocale said and sorry for posting this so damn fast, tons of work to do and we will cancel the contact page for this week, it will be almost impossible to answer any question what so ever. But last week of university and than vacations, boost is ready. On January 25, Sunday, at 11:00 AM GMT (the same exact time tomorrow) you will be able to select your character name in your profile on our website. If you have played Alicia on Korean server before and have attached screenshots confirming your former character name (on the "Former account" page) then your former character name will be reserved for you automatically. You may visit your profile tomorrow anyway to check on that or to select another name. The character name selection is not final. During the following several weeks you will be able to change your character name (it should be unique name in the system). Currently in your name you may use the same characters that could be used in original version (this limitation comes from the currently used font). Your name may include: English and Korean characters, digits and (){}[] symbols. 1월 25일 일요일 오후 8시(한국 시간으로, 정확히 내일 이 시간에), 이제 당신의 캐릭터 이름을 프로필에서 선택할 수 있게 됩니다. 만약 당신이 한국 서버에서 앨리샤를 했었고 당신의 캐릭터 이름임을 증명하는 스크린샷을 "전 계정" 페이지에 첨부했다면, 그 캐릭터 이름은 자동적으로 당신에게 귀속되어 있을 것입니다. 어차피 내일 이름이 귀속되었는지 확인하거나, 다른 이름을 선택하기 위해서는 프로필에 들어가봐야 한다. 캐릭터 이름 선택이 이것으로 끝이 아닙니다. 몇 주 안에 당신은 캐릭터 이름을 바꿀 수 있게 될 것입니다(당연히 남들이 사용하지 않는 이름이어야함). 현재 캐릭터 이름에 쓸 수 있는 문자는 원래 버전에서 사용되던 문자만 가능합니다. 당신의 캐릭터 이름은 영어와 한국어, 숫자, 그리고 (){}[] 부호를 포함할 수 있습니다. Hello everyone, Today's post will be different from the usual. It isn't an update from Mlocale but rather a message from us to all our followers. Sorkary here isn't good with words so lets see if I can make this painless. It has been almost 2 year since we started this website, a place where people could understand the game and know more about it so one day we could be toe to toe to the Koreans. But everything changed when the game was closed (avatar aang reference here). I remember everything on that day, people asking "what about now?", we kept looking for a way to get the game back, we felt useless saying everyone "we might never have it back", the thought of closing the website, but Tabaki said "No, we will keep the website so people can remember this game". Thankfully Mlocale decided to give it a try and bring the game back. It was a though fight but slowly we are getting what we wished so deeply for months. Overall it has been a long journey from a idea to an enjoyable hobby that I hope I can continue with other games. But I only have this feelings thanks to all of you, our followers. You where the ones that make it feel all worth it simply by visiting the website everyday, check our news and sending us messages of encouragement and gratefulness. Yesterday we reached 100 likes at our fb page and we have around 400 visits daily on the website, this might seem small but for us it's the universe... So we though it is time to finally say: Thank you all for your support until now, thank you for counting with us, thank you Mlocale for trusting us. For everything:
Thank you Hello ladies and gentlemen, Isn't it a wonderful day to create your Alicia account? Ok back to business, in a few minutes, most likely after lunch we will update the Sign Up page, but meanwhile read what Mlocale said about this new update: "Account system is now ready at http://aliciagame.com/ !
How to create an account: 1) Click "Register" link, enter the Username and your E-mail address (note: this is not your character name, this is just a login for accessing the system, you will choose your character name later) 2) Click "Create new account" and wait for the confirmation email. 3) Click the confirmation link in your email, then "Log in" button and select your password. 4) Your account is ready! Account system does not mean that you will be able to race or visit other ranches right now, but this is one of the most imporant steps in the whole development process. All the system depends on it. Today you will be able to customize your character using "My profile" page: select your sex, eyes, mouth and one of the 5 provided clothes sets (4 of those clothes set have been standard starter sets and we also added the Сhristmas one). All other customizations will be added in the very nearest future. The important thing is that now you got your own character, completely yours! One may wonder - but how can we select the character name? Actually, this may take a while. Recently we have received many messages from players asking to preserve their former names from Korean server. This is a reasonable argument - for those who played for a long time, the character name is very important. As we do not have any login information from the Korean server, we have to resolve who is who. So if you want to preserve your former name, please fill in the form at the "Former account" page. Provide your former name, guild name, list the guild members you can remember and attach some screenshots, which confirm your former name. Don't forget to press the "Save" button. This information will remain private and will only be accessible by you and administrators. We think that about 2 weeks will be enough to resolve all the former names (this also includes former guild names). After that period everybody will be able to freely select any character name which has not been transferred from the Korean server. We completely understand the new players, who would like to select the character name right now, but please have patience and let the former players to get back their names, as this is very important for them. By the way, if you do not want to restore your previous name, you may skip that form - just wait for 2 week and then get any other name of your choice During the week we also gonna include additional items into the customization menu, including horse armor and even some items that were not avaliable in the original shop. Now you will be able to try it on your own character ~ P.S. The server has been just recently updated, so the website may not be available in all locations immediately - just wait a bit and the server will become visible at your location." Hi everyone, We are final back to "work". All the questions or comments asked in the last few days will be answered from now on. But greater news! Account system is going to be up in a week or two and so does the first race of Alicia, withouth boost and magic items but screw it... IT'S A GODAMN RACE! Ok so here is what they said: " Hello, dear Alicia fans! How are your holidays going? Having a good time? After enjoying New Year holidays we are back to the Alicia development. And today we can make some announcements. We expect the account system to be implemented by the end of the next week. And the main news is that we are currently working on some very special game functionality - the first winter track in recreated Alicia! At first there might be just a single race without time limit and boosters, but it will surely bring you a great feeling of what the Alicia races are, especially for people who have never played Alicia before. Implementing the track functionality is not easy, but we expect to prepare it in about 2 weeks Here is a preview: " See ya next time folks!
Hello everyone, We hope you are all enjoying your vacations and have spent a very Merry Christmas. But if you though your presents have been all opened you are wrong. Santa Mlocale as a very special gift for you and wishes you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year followed by an lovely picture. So what you waiting? Go update your game and check the present. From our part, we hope you had a lovely day, full of presents and tons of food to share with friends and family. See if you still own some space for New Year since it is close to a beginning and that means more food and chubbiness (does this word even exist?) Sorkary must stop drinking before something wrong happens. Inventing words it's only the beginning...
I know that you already know that you know that the game is already up but it's my duty to warn the naive. Sorkary won't have time to play the game and we stil have to apologise for the questions not yet answered but "vacations" (if we can call that) didnt start as they should (random teacher decided to hate all works and make us do it all over again till Monday)
I will quote what Mlocale said on their recent post and for does who haven't installed the game yet pls go to aliciastory.com: "Download and install the Alicia_Launcher_Install_Beta.exe, following instructions on the website. Please note that there still are some issues with Korean code page settings, but it should be possible to run the game without switching to Korean non-unicode on most systems. We will also improve this process in the future. For now you may use a dummy account: Name: alicia Password:123 Your horse and character will be generated randomly each time you enter the game Please let us know is you have any issues - we will try to fix most of those today, so that everybody can launch the game this weekend~" So remember any issues contact them so they can fix it before Christmas craziness starts. Oh btw I leave here my reaction will the fandom is getting hype: *Sorka peacefully doing her work. Meanwhile phone rings* - Hi - OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG ALICIA IS UP DO YOU KNOW THAT!!!??? WE HAVE TO PLAY!!!! - Hmmm you know it is just the ranch right? - I DON'T CARESSSSSSSS!!!! JUST GET INTO THE GAME EB FUHBGUHN *Inner Sorka screams of frustation cause she cant play* Hello everyone,
First of all we want to apologise to you all, it has been a crazy couple of weeks with much university work to do and that is leading us to not have any time to respond to your comments and emails and pretty much everything related to the website. Regarding that we will start responding around Wednesday when our vacations start. Once again we are very sorry. Now, Mloclae made a new update explaning that we are almost getting the ranch version but there are a few things everyone needs to do. We quote now what they said: "Hello everybody~ We want to thank you very much for all your support. The ranch version will be available by the end of the next week! We are currently making the final preparations. To launch the game you gonna need the original Alicia client and our Alicia Launcher. While we are finishing the development of the launcher, you may download the original client. The original Alicia installation file "Alicia_setup_008.exe" has been removed from the Korean website, but is now available from the torrent: http://aliciastory.com/download/Alicia_setup_008.torrent Note: you may install the client, but you will not be able to launch the game. Please wait just a bit more, the launcher is almost finished. By the end of the next week you all will be able to use it ~ Note: to download the content of the torrent file, you need to install a torrent client first, for example http://utorrent.com (free download). After you install the torrent client, click the torrent link and download will start automatically." Many of you must already have seen this but either way here are the most recent news.
Today Mlocale released a website where you can see the horse coats and if you download it you can make your own. Everything is explained here https://www.facebook.com/Alicia3D/photos/np.12012466.100005873316629/343278962521976/?type=1¬if_t=notify_me so any questions talk directly to them. Sorry for this fast post but today I'm on the rush to get work done for university. XD Have a awesome day folks Our dearest Mlocale posted today a large text explaining all the fuzz between them and Riding High, the reason why they so solidly believe the game is fake and all the explanations about it. The argument is well stated so I believe if you take your time reading it it will be quite interesting to know a few facts.
Please go to their Facebook page to read it and give your honest opinion: https://www.facebook.com/Alicia3D/posts/335995996583606?notif_t=notify_me Today Mlocale posted on their facebook page many answer for the bombardment of questions that have been appearing on the comments lately. There is a lot of information so please read carefully and by now the community as shown great appreciation and support towards them.
https://www.facebook.com/Alicia3D/posts/335309629985576?comment_id=335310166652189¬if_t=like Today Mlocale posted on their facebook page the following picture As you can see this is a pic of the game with a "mod " which they made. After this many questions where made and they responded to mine. I will explain to you what actually is going on so no mistakes or misunderstandings are taken in mind.
This picture is actual photage of Mlocale's simulator of Alicia which is only at the very beginning stage. So on, they are only capable of playing in the ranch that means no racing is possible but they are looking for co-developers to help out on the task of bringing the game back. So if you know modeling or programming please go talk to them personally. As always we are going to keep in touch with the latest news and we already offered our support in case they need, we regret we can't help with the most difficult task but none of us posses the skills in modeling or programming, maybe one day we can but right now we are total noobs at it. Have nice dreams and see you soon Alicians. Hello everyone,
We noticed that in a few days till now some people have been discussing about ways to get Alicia Online back in the news comment and we felt it wasn't a decent place to post such things, since many people might have difficulty to find the comments so we decided to make a really fast forum just for this. The forum page is below the News menu so check it out - www.aliciaonheart.weebly.com/forum Hello everyone! Sorkary here.
I know we have been a little bit innactive for a while, but that is life isn't helping much. From exams to try to get into college, things hasn't been easy but we are back once again. So today I'm going to talk about our new project, another tutorial website, the game might be different from what all of you expect but it's a game we really want to play and even be part of the community once more. We are talking about Black Desert Online, a sand-box game, with super high graphics, lots of pvp, super mario jumping horses, and a lot more. The game seems amazing it's still is in CBT in Korea but they said that around November we will get the OBT there. That means that once more we will help people getting their accounts in Korea since there will be Ip-blocking again. But about the website... This time we want to get "big", we will use weebly once more but we are making things more customizable, so far we have a custom background, logo and titles. Hopefully we will be able to make a menu to suit the style of the website but so far it's looking good and more professional than Alicia on Heart which was using a weebly theme. I suppose we are half way till the publication of the website, we have all the pages we can talk about in the moment created, day by day we are writing and add info in each page, and hopefully in one month time (no promises) we will decide the day to publish. That doesn't mean we forgot about Alicia on Heart, we still answer questions in english or portuguese, any other languages we tend to not even look at it because we don't get what it says and google translator is not the best thing. We didn't forget about Riding High as well, we are checking ever single step they take and see what will happen with that. Once it's fully confirmed that the game will be released we will start a tutorial website. Don't forget tutorial websites can translate but the main thing we do is helping and explain everything about the game. Sorry for the long post but thank you so much for reading it! Any questions just ask. Sorkary here!
I've been receiving lots of questions and comments of people saying to make a private server of the game but I feel that some do not know the implications of it. Checking the petition, the server would have to handle at least 5000 players (hoping no one would do 2 or more accounts) but the things is that someone must configurate the server with their own IP and Port. We are saying that someone had to be the main base of the entire server and that can interfere with the computer and internet normal work. Not only that, each game must be configured in different ways so find out how to configure Alicia could that a while since we don't even have the official server online. The good thing is that some websites allow you to use them as a host to easily allow lots of players enter the server but the catch is. The monthly fees. They ask for a payment monthly so everyone would have to help out... We can try to have a private server but it would be good to have a team and everyone else helping in the way they could. Hey, hey guys, Tabaki here again.
So, unfortunately, I was wrong, but not all is lost. The alicia fanbase is making a petition to get the game back up! I already signed, now if you want the game back, go do it yourselves! Don't give up, the hope is the last to die! ^3^ http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/alicia-online-20 Now we have another mission. To reach our goal, we have to get publicity. Make videos on youtube, make journals on deviantART, show alicia to your friends, get people interested! I know we can do this, if we all cooperate so, let's do it! Have a nice day, and good luck with the publicity, Tabaki. Hey, hey people how you doing, Tabaki here! So, as you know, there have been rumors around that Alicia 2.0 is coming up and maybe in english and...
Well, I do have a theory. it's only a theory though, not an absolute truth. So, remember when we all tried out alicia 2.0 back in 2012? They (the developers) said that we'd lose our accounts and horses for the new update, the Alicia 2.0 after the Beta. They also mentioned the 2.0 would only be avaliable around 2014~2015. Some even mentioned Alicia would close for 2 months and then it'd re-open as 2.0. Well... In my eyes if fits like a puzzle. Recently, as Alicia shut down, a friend of mine mentioned that her korean friends said that the game would be re-opened in 2 months. So, my theory is: the game will re-open, in a different company, around April 13th as Alicia 2.0. I don't know for sure but for now it seems legit to me, and we just gotta wait! See y'all and let's hope it's true. Sorry for our long abcense in the website but since the game as shut down things have been quite different of what we used to do. But Tabaki didn't give up on the game and as found out some good news for all Alicia fans.
It seems that the game might come back after all but different of what we used to have. First, it is said that beta versions of the game will be launched in April but no actually idea of the final version is actually stated nor the company who as bought the game. But if this is true the game will be fully finished at 2015, since beta tests tend to extend a little. Secondly the game will be up on the 2.0 version, this means we will have the 2 new guy characters and the donkeys, shire and thoughbreed to play with. Last but not least, the game might be in english! (Worst for us, Tabaki and Sorkary... Nah I don't think so) This was the news about the game but now we will talk about a "project" Tabaki and Sorkary are doing. Since the games shut down both of us felt the need of making more tutorials. In less then 1 year we reached something we didn't dream of, talk with people, see an active community, everything that gaves us the feeling we were doing something good and people actually aprecciate it. So we decided to create a website where people can follow us, see what we have in mind for future projects, know a little about ourselves, etc. In a fews days, hopefully, we will be posting a direct link to this website so you can check it out and perhaps gives us ideas about what to do next. This is all for now, see you soon ;) |
Sorkary
