There's a lot of upgrades coming to the fishing rods and other things, but here's what's OpenSeas related. This is NOT AVAILABLE YET, but will be available to Fishing Area Kit owners via Proof of Purchase pulls once it's finished. (The parts are all creative commons, so if you don't own an FAK, just ask an FAK owner to send you the package. It's full perms and free to distribute, we just find the FAK's the easiest way to do it.)
OpenFish v2 -- We're adding in the ability to send fish to official 7Seas Aquariums. With some setup work to make an appropriately designed texture and pick some stats (fish actually have "stats" behind the scenes, surprise!) this'll let you put your fish in aquariums and use them in games like AquaDash and our upcoming (tenatively named) Wheel of Fish contest.
OpenBlueprint -- The ability to add Salvage and Blueprints to your Custom Prize Givers! Woohoo! This will be an open source, creative-commons kit just like OpenFish.
OpenAquarium -- Simple enough, we're opening up the ability for folks to create new catchable aquarium backdrops that interface with our Home and Round aquariums. We've had this ability in there for ages but never took advantage of it until now.
FishFinder Gizmo -- This is going to be a craftable item that lets people scan for nearby fishing areas and CPGs, and even list the available catches in any nearby CPGs. No longer will you be left wondering what's out there for you to catch!
I hope this forum gives builders, scripters, and designers a place to stay in the loop on our developments, and to help each other in their work. 7Seas community content has really taken off in a huge way, more than I'd ever anticipated, to the point where I'd say the lifeblood of the game is half our stuff and half your stuff. Amazing work; you are each given one free Internet.
