Entropia Universe Version Updates

This archive preserves the complete history of Entropia Universe Version Updates, documenting the technical evolution of the platform and the development of its virtual worlds. Each update represents a snapshot in the ongoing transformation of the universe, from early system foundations and gameplay mechanics to major graphical upgrades, planetary expansions, and platform milestones.

The release notes collected here provide insight into how the real-cash economy virtual universe has evolved over time — including engine transitions, interface redesigns, new systems, balance adjustments, and community-driven improvements. Together they form a chronological technical record of the changes that shaped Entropia Universe from its early years to the modern era.

Use the search function to explore specific Version Updates, locate historical features, or trace how particular systems and mechanics have developed across different eras of the universe.

For best results use 1 or 2 words, or an exact phrase. (example: "space mining")

Entropia Universe 15.8.6 Release Notes
Fixed Issues

  • Fixed an issue causing password recovery to not work.
  • Fixed an issue causing the client to not start in some situations.
  • Fixed an issue causing the shader cache to not be cleared during an update.

MindArk and the Planet Partners strive to ensure a smooth and problem-free Version Update. Nevertheless, even after extensive testing some issues may arise after release.

If you feel that the possibility of encountering minor issues or bugs directly after a Version Update affects your gameplay to an extent that Entropia Universe is not enjoyable, please wait until the mini-patches have been released and any last minute issues have been resolved.

***PLEASE READ THIS DOCUMENT IF YOU FIND SOMETHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY IN PLANET CALYPSO! IT MIGHT PROVIDE THE INFO YOU NEED BEFORE CONTACTING THE SUPPORT DEPARTMENT!***

!
Fixed Issues

  • Lowered the contribution points requirement in the Dynamic Event.
!
Changes

  • Added Auctioneer NPC at Fort Medusa and Fort Pandora
!
Additional Information
This is the basic Dynamic Event rundown:

  • The Event is divided in four (4) parts, SGP 1-3 and Fort
  • The Robots will attack the first SGP (Shield Generator Platform) in four (4) waves
  • Destroying the required amount of robots within a wave’s time limit will count as a success, spawn a Reclaimer Unit and shortly thereafter start the next wave
  • Failing to destroy the required amount of robots within a wave’s time limit will fail the event part and shortly thereafter start the next event part.
    • Example: failing SGP 1 Wave 2 will fail the SGP 1 Event part and shortly thereafter the SGP 2 Event part will start
  • Succeeding in an Event part (clearing all 4 waves) will provide a variety of temporary buff effects to participants who reach 100% Contribution during the event. Which buff effect one receives is based on the event
  • The end Boss, a Warlock I3-TF, has a dynamic maturity. The more Reclaimers have been killed the higher the Boss’ maturity. The Boss has five (5) maturity levels
