Art Panel

2023-02-21 13:47:31


The species artist panel is back up and running so that more artwork can be uploaded. This was taken down due to some bugs that staff have since been fixing and testing.

The bug was suspected to have been caused by software updates to our image handling library. It caused some artwork to appear slightly off in color, usually with darker coloration. This was also related to color mode (files should be RBG, but were showing up as the wrong color mode).

We believe the bug is now fixed, but if any players find this again, let us know! We will take it back down if there's still bugs in the file uploads.

Players with artist upgrade time have been given an extension to compensate for this bug.

In unrelated news, some of the area thumbnails are going to be replaced soon. This won't affect gameplay, but you'll see some of the images get switched.

Server Updates

2023-02-16 16:50:28


More updates on the server switch! 4dopt's SSL certificate has now been fully updated, so there should no longer be anymore privacy warnings.

Crons are now back up and running as well! Automated daily activities such as energy regeneration, upgrade counters, bank interest, and other things should resume at rollover. Seekers is back up. Everything should now be back to normal in terms of the site crons.

We're currently working on bringing Recolor and Art Panels back up.

More updates coming soon!

Back up!

2023-02-14 18:59:56


A majority of 4dopt is back up and running tonight! We will continue to work on bringing everything back up this week.

Things that are still pending include:
- Automated crons such as energy regeneration and seekers are currently being run manually by staff. We'll be getting these back on an automated schedule ASAP, but in the meantime, they will at odd times.
- Some of the lesser important crons may be skipped for now. For example, the automated event news posts, change queues, upgrade timers, and shelter adopt wiper. We'll have these things back up and running ASAP.
- Recolor is down at the moment due to a bug that we're working on fixing.
- The SSL certificate for 4dopt still hasn't finished updating. This causes a security warning error. We'll work on getting this certificate updated ASAP.

Any bugs found can be reported to the bug reports forum!
Thank you all for the patience!

Crons & Features

2023-02-14 16:07:55


Crons are currently down right now while we continue to work on transferring 4dopt over!
We are running the crons manually, and in the process of adding manual cron settings for staff to be able to handle these during times like this.

Just a heads up that some of these automated features may run at odd times until we get the crons back up!

Recover Adopts

2023-02-14 14:48:17


There was a short window of time in which adoptables that were created went to the old database. This happened for a few minutes on the day of the server switch.

Anyone who has a missing adoptable due to this, you can post here to get it recovered.

Server Transfer Complete!

2023-02-13 11:47:11


Welcome to the new server!

4dopt is now running on an upgraded server. Migration is complete!

All users who had upgrades and artist upgrades previously have received +2 days to make up for downtime. Thank you all for supporting the site and helping fun our new server!

Everyone on the site has also received +14 days of both upgrades and artist upgrades! +1 extra day has also been added to cover the downtime today. Thank you all for your patience and support!

Adopt images are now being repopulated. So the first time you view an image, it will be slow. This is the same process that happens any time you update an adopt's image such as though recoloring, except no changes are being made—the image is just being recreated based on the adopt's current, unchanged data.

If there are any bugs associated with the server switch, let us know in the bug reports forum.
