General

• Planned Region Downtime. The servers will be going down for RIFT 3.2 Hotfix #8 as well as some routine server maintenance that will last ~3hrs.
  • North America: 5/27/15, at 6:00 AM PDT
  • Europe: 5/28/15 at 1:00 AM GMT

• EU Mobile. EU Mobile should be back some time Tuesday according to the announcement last week. This means that a lot of Event Trackers that use the Mobile app to pull data from still won’t have EU zone events up until then.

• FPS Issues. If you are having FPS issues and have an NVIDIA graphics card, the latest driver update might help resolve some of the FPS issues you have been encountering. [r]

• PTS-related Info:
  • Bug: You cannot place dimension items in Octus Monastery. This has been fixed internally and will go out to PTS ‘soon’. [r]
  • Bug: The Bare Mermaid Statue has a missing head (at the back). Known bug. [r] If you know of any other dimension-related bugs on the PTS, please let Morticus know. Note that he doesn’t allow private messages on the RIFT Forums so you’ll have to reply to one of his posts.

• RIFT Livestreamers Photo. Ever wondered what the livestream room over at Trion looks like from the perspective of the livestreamers? [r] (Check out that Blue Yeti Mic!)
