Notes for all:

We just finished moving all of our sites to new servers. If you notice anything not working the way it should be, please let us know.

Notes for authors:

One of the things that has changed, in part due to the move although not completely, is that we are going back to our old policy of only allowing .zip files for uploads. Going forward we will no longer accept .rar files. If you already have a file on the site that is a .rar, we will allow it to stay as such. However, all updates and any new uploads will have to be in the .zip format. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

SOPA and PIPA are two bills being considered by the US government which could have far reaching and powerful negative effects on the Internet as we know it and free speech. Along with millions of others we say that these and similar censorship bills are not right.
Join us in taking action!

Highlights

• Mercenary Roster Quest - A new tradeskill quest is available to obtain a mercenary slot for your roster by adding Hero's Barracks as a reward, if it has not been maxed at 4. See Mercenary Captain Cecille in the Plane of Knowledge. You must have mastered all basic tradeskills to take this quest.
• The achievement "Master of Alaris" now grants Hero's Barracks as a reward, which grants an additional mercenary slot, up to the maximum of 4.
• Players who participated in Beta can now Claim their reward!

UI

• Added the ability to tint any control a certain color from the UI XML. The new property is called BackgroundTextureTint.
• Converted the button tinting from the "Buy Slot" button in the Mercenary window to use the new tinting option.

  • SIDL.xml

Full Patch Notes

Soon you'll be able to get all of your Diablo III questions answered at the newest addition to the ZAM Network: The Diablo III Database (D3DB).

The Diablo III Database has officially joined the ZAM Network! Combining the passionate enthusiasm of the D3DB team with the experience of the ZAM Network & Wowhead team means that D3DB will be your premiere stop for any and all Diablo III questions you might have. They've even got an amazing proprietary Diablo III character planner!

Currently we are in the process of streamlining the D3DB user experience to feel more like using other sites on the ZAM Network, like Wowhead and Torhead, but there are also some big plans to get you, the players, all the cutting edge information you need to get ahead in Diablo III.

So keep an eye on D3DB.com as we get closer to the launch of one of the most highly anticipated games of 2012!

Highlights

• Corrected an issue that was causing mercenary writs to fail.
• Knowledge of Alaran Culture should now be available at level 90.
• Corrected a particle issue that could cause some clients to crash in the Valley of Lunanyn.
• Veil of Alaris Tier 1 group and raid armor now has level 95 focus effects.
• Valley of Lunanyn - All tasks in this zone have had their minimum level requirement reduced to 90.
• Valley of Lunanyn - Pest Control, Fertilizer for the Crops, and Reaping the Harvest were not correctly counting towards your total number of completed kill quests to gain language skill. If you have already completed these tasks re-reading any language book should now set you to the correct skill amount. If you completed five or more other kill quests you may already have learned as much as you can from this type of quest.

There is no note of any UI changes.
