Hi all, just wanted to share some posts from Mirage (HI2 admin) about recent updates since not everyone checks the forums.
The topic can be seen here: http://hi2.horseisle.com/www/forums.php?FORUM=9&VIEWID=88434
Let's remember to thank the admins for all they've done in creating this fantastic game and be a little more patient for new updates. :)

"Sorry for the quiet guys. Not only do we have the online Horse Isle worlds that we work on, but we have a local business that we've been focusing heavily on for the last year and a half. This means that we get buried in a project and all of a sudden a month has passed.

Once I stopped hearing from our HI2 artist I kept holding out hoping that she would show up again. I've since given up that hope and am hoping to find someone else that will work out. I should know this week whether or not she'll work. Because of the artist limbo, I can't promise any kind of timeline on an update. I also only have one pseudo quest writer. This means I'm having to write any new quests instead of just editing them, which is time consuming (and not a lot of fun because I'm not a writer).

I'll try to pop into the other forums (not just the Bugs forum) once in a while. It definitely won't be daily, maybe not even weekly, but I'll check the ideas and such once in a while.

Thanks for your patience and sorry for the frustration."

"A couple things:

Reviewing abuse reports and doing support is a daily thing. This means giving violations is a daily occurrence so long as players break the rules. The admins that review abuse reports, etc, have absolutely nothing to do with game development. Those are completely separate things.

The Breeder's Directory has also been reset, so please re-enter your breeds!

Position filled! Thank you all!

Hello! Esroh Legends is in need of 1-2 people to help with Horse Color Charts (the big charts you see under the description of Horse Breeds).

To do this task, you will need to:
- Know how to take screenshots on your computer.
- Know how to save an image as different file types (jpg or png)
- Know how to install font files onto your computer.
- Have an art program that can write text and change the opacity of layers (like Photoshop or GIMP).
- Know how to send file attachments through email.

Know how to do these? Awesome! The process of making horse color charts is very simple, just takes a bit of effort. :)

If you're interested in helping out with Horse Color Charts, please send us an email at esrohlegends@gmail.com.
Please also indicate in your email if you know how to do all of the above and if you're interested in doing this temporary or long term for Esroh Legends and your HI2 username and main server.

This opening will close when the positions have been filled.
 

Edit 11/10: Cheesy Adventure and Pyramid Map versions have been reuploaded on their minigame pages.

Note from HI2 creators: Sorry for the lack of updates. Miranda has been working basically seven days a week since August doing research on raptors during the fall migration here in the northern US. The season is winding down, so she should have a bit more time and will be able to get back to adding some content. Thank you for your patience!
