## [1.4.0] - 2026-01-28
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **Vote System**: Lineage 2 servers can now use our voteโ€“reward system. Players vote on the website and claim rewards in-game (1 vote = 1 claim)
- **Vote Page**: On each serverโ€™s page (`/servers/<server>`), a **โ€œVote for Serverโ€** button opens a dedicated vote page with cooldown info and optional Turnstile verification
- **By Votes View**: The **โ€œBy Votesโ€** tab on the main page shows **actual vote counts** per server
- **API Documentation**: New **API Docs** page at `/docs` (and footer link) with HMAC auth, endpoints, and examples for game server integration
- **Vote API (My Servers)**: Server owners can open **โ€œVote APIโ€** in My Servers to manage credentials, cooldown, allowed IPs, and open the docs
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **Server Pages**: Single-server data is cached and loads faster; server pages can be opened by ID or by name (e.g. `/servers/my-server-name`)
- **API Root**: Visiting the API root redirects to the docs URL configured in admin (default: site docs page)
- **Admin Panel**: New **โ€œVote Systemโ€** tab for global settings (Turnstile, API security, default cooldown, docs URL)
ย 
### ๐Ÿ” Security & Reliability

- HMAC-protected game server API for secure vote check/claim and stats

## [1.4.1] - 2026-01-29
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **Short Description**: Server owners can add a short tagline (up to 240 characters) on the server info page, under the "Online" status. It appears in the server list (By Votes) for VIP, Gold VIP, and Pinned servers so players see a brief summary at a glance.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **Server Info Page**: Description field is limited to 3000 characters with a character counter; the textarea is vertically resizable. A second **Save Changes** button was added at the bottom (after the description) for easier saving.
- **Server Name**: In My Servers โ†’ Edit, the server name is read-only and can no longer be changed (avoids accidental changes and naming conflicts).
- **Server Rows (By Votes)**: Short descriptions wrap correctly and no longer affect row height; long text is clipped to two lines so the list stays tidy and consistent.
ย

## [1.5.0] - 2026-01-30
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **SEO Improvements**: Each page now has its own title and description for better search visibility. Added sitemap and robots.txt so search engines can discover the site and server pages more effectively.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **Server Info Translations**: Fixed translations on the server info page โ€” the page now correctly follows the site language (e.g. switching to Greek updates all labels and UI text).
- **Home Page โ€“ Coming Soon & Already Open**: These sections now show 20 servers by default (up from 10), with an option to expand and view more.
- **Admin Panel**: Improved mobile responsiveness for easier management on phones and tablets.
- **Faster Loading**: Implemented code splitting so the site loads quicker. Heavier pages (Admin, Server Info, My Servers, etc.) load on demand, reducing initial load time.
- **Image Loading**: Images load lazily (as you scroll) to improve performance and reduce data usage, especially on mobile.
- **Accessibility**: Added descriptive alt text to all images for screen readers and better accessibility.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ” Security
- Security improvements to protect the site and user data (webhook authentication, install safeguards, and related backend hardening).

## [1.5.1] - 2026-01-30
ย 
### ๐Ÿ› Bug Fixes
- **Top Voters**: Top voters list now loads correctly for inactive servers (previously showed "Server not found").
- **View Counter**: Server info page view count now records correctly for inactive servers.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **My Servers โ€“ Hide/Active**: The hide/active toggle now works correctly and is only shown when the server is approved (active) by an admin. Owner hide/show is separate from admin status. Toggling no longer causes a full page refresh.
- **Accessibility**: Form fields across the site now have proper labels and IDs for screen readers and autofill โ€” server info edit form, add server form, My Servers edit, Admin Panel (Email, Vote System, pricing, filters, logs), and related inputs.
## [1.5.2] - 2026-01-30
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **Server Type**: Replaced the old "Server Options" checkboxes with a single-choice **Server Type** selection: Normal, MultiSkill, GvE, Olympiad, PvP, and Stacksub. Choose one type that best describes your server.
- **Server Type in Edit Forms**: You can now change the server type when editing a server โ€” in **My Servers โ†’ Edit** and in **Admin Panel โ†’ Servers โ†’ Edit Server**.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **Sidebar Filters**: Server type filters (MultiSkill, GvE, Olympiad, PvP, Stacksub) are now single-choice โ€” selecting one clears the previous selection. Order updated to: VIP L2 Servers, Low Rate, then the server type options. VIP L2 Servers and Low Rate remain independent toggles.
- **Rate Display**: Server rows now show full rate values (e.g. x50000) without truncation.
- **My Servers โ€“ Edit Modal**: Edit form layout restored with slightly tighter spacing so it fits better on screen.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ Removed
- **International Option**: Removed from the Add Server form; server type options are now simplified.

## [1.5.5] - 2026-02-02
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **Discord Login**: You can now sign in with your Discord account. Admins enable and configure Discord login in **cpadmin โ†’ Users** (Discord auth settings: Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI). If you already have an account with the same email (e.g. forum, Google, or legacy), signing in with Discord links to that account so you keep one profile. Discord login is available on Add Server, My Servers, Vote page, and Premium Ads booking.
- **Setup Links**: In **cpadmin โ†’ Users**, both Google and Discord login settings now include direct links to their official developer portals (Google Cloud Console and Discord Developer Portal) for easier OAuth app setup.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”’ Security
- **Email Required for Registration**: New user registration via OAuth (Forum, Google, Discord) now requires a valid email address. If the OAuth provider doesn't provide an email (e.g. unverified Discord email), registration is rejected with a clear message. This prevents anonymous accounts and ensures all users can receive important notifications.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **User Auth Badges**: In **cpadmin โ†’ Users**, the Registered Members table now shows auth method badges: **Forum**, **Google**, **Discord**, or **Legacy**. Users can have multiple badges if they've linked multiple login methods.
- **Server Info Labels**: Translated server info labels (Owner Name, Language, Server Location) are now properly localized in all 5 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Greek, Russian).

## [1.5.4] - 2026-02-01
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **Google Login**: You can now sign in with your Google account. Admins enable and configure Google login in **cpadmin โ†’ Users** (Google auth settings: Client ID, Client Secret, Redirect URI). If you already have an account with the same email (e.g. forum or legacy), signing in with Google links to that account so you keep one profile. The login menu (navbar and login prompts) offers **Login with Forum Account**, **Login with Google** (when enabled), and **Create Forum Account**. Google login is available on Add Server, My Servers, Profile Settings, Vote page, and Premium Ads booking.
- **Ban/Unban Members**: In **cpadmin โ†’ Users**, admins can ban or unban registered members. Banned users see a full-page message: "Sorry, you are banned from using this site." When a user is banned, all their servers are set to inactive.
- **Moderator Activity Log**: **cpadmin โ†’ Moderators** now records when a moderator or admin enters the CPAdmin panel (e.g. "Moderator X entered CPAdmin panel at &lt;time&gt;") and when they change any cpadmin settings (only write actions are logged; read-only use is not).
- **Clear Moderator Logs**: Admins can clear all moderator activity log entries via a **Clear logs** button with confirmation. Logs are shown at 100 per page with pagination.
- **Filter by Moderator**: In the Moderator Activity Log, a **Filter by moderator** dropdown lets you view activity for a specific moderator or "All moderators."
- **cpadmin โ†’ Users Tab**: New **Users** tab in the admin panel with Registered Members list (paginated), Google auth settings card, and per-user Ban/Unban and server links.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **cpadmin โ†’ Servers**: Each server name in the servers table is now clickable and opens that serverโ€™s info page.
- **cpadmin โ†’ Users โ€“ Servers column**: The servers count/list is clickable and opens a small modal listing that userโ€™s servers; each server name in the modal links to the server info page.
- **cpadmin โ†’ Users โ€“ Search**: A search bar above the Registered Members table lets you search by **username**, **email**, or **server name**. Results are filtered on the server (paginated); clearing the search resets the list.
- **Moderator Activity Log**: Pagination shows "Showing Xโ€“Y of Z" and "Page N of M" with Previous/Next when there are more than 100 entries.
- **Login UI**: Login options (Forum, Google, Create account) are shown in a consistent dropdown and in modals (Add Server, My Servers, Vote, Premium Ads) for a clearer sign-in experience.
- **Vote Page โ€“ Unauthenticated**: When you must log in to vote, the page now shows "Vote for [Server Name]" as the main heading and presents login options in a compact section.

ย 
## [1.5.3] - 2026-01-30
ย 
### โœจ New Features
- **File Logs in Admin Panel**: Admins can now view CodeIgniter PHP logs (api/writable/logs) directly in **cpadmin โ†’ Logs**. Select a date to view the log file, refresh to reload, or delete all log files to free up space.
ย 
### ๐Ÿ”„ Improvements
- **Cache System**: Full cache audit and improvements โ€” when you clear cache in cpadmin, both backend and frontend caches are cleared. Server listings, My Servers, pricing, ad config, and chronicles all refresh with fresh data. New paid servers now appear in listings and My Servers immediately.
- **Admin Panel โ€“ Server Rates**: Server rates in the admin servers table now display in compact format (e.g. x10000 โ†’ x10k, x100000 โ†’ x100k, x1000000 โ†’ x1m) for easier scanning. Hover to see the full value.

    • Opening April 25 at 19:00 (UTC +3) Open Beta Test from April 21 This is pre-announcing of NEW season server, so we want to share some key points of it. Full details with road map, patch notes we will announce a bit latter If this is your first time on Dex and you havenโ€™t played on our seasonal servers before, the information below will help you understand what our project is about and its key features. Dex veterans can skip the following section and go straight to theย โ€œWhatโ€™s New in the New Seasonโ€ย part. Why Choose Dex? Best Balance on Interlude+ย - we offer the most polished balance among all modified Interlude servers(It may not be perfect yet, but we are committed to continuous improvements and refinements. ). Our build is 100% unique, developed on retail PTS files, and refined over 6+ years. This is not a copyโ€“paste pack โ€“ itโ€™s our own work, shaped by players feedback and suggestions for more than 6 years. Proven Stability & Long-Term Lifeย - Our Union x25 server has been running since April 2020 โ€“ 6 years of stability and still active with strong online! This makes Dex the only server with real players (not phantoms) with such a setup and longevity. Always Fresh, Always Engagingย - Every Seasonal server comes with a clear roadmap of changes and updates. At the end of the season, the server merges with Union, so your effort is never wasted. New players can start fresh together with everyone else on the new season. Before the merge, we run exclusive boosted events for about a month, giving seasonal players a massive head start. (Union players donโ€™t get these events) Endless Endgame Contentย - High-end activities, unique PvP events, and continuous new features will keep you engaged long-term. Weโ€™re always working to improve and deliver fresh, fun content for our community. All your progress, items, and characters are safe - when the season ends, you continue on Union. Main features Modernย Classicย client (less lags, smoother gameplay, a lot of useful interface features). Anti-botย protection - we use our own system in combine with popular solutions like AAC, so in the end our project have one of the best anti-bot shield exists. Buff bookย to buff yourself or your summon/pet. With regular buff book you can create onlyย 1ย buff profile, if you need more - get the modern buff book and create up toย 10ย profiles! 36 buff slotsย - 24 regular buffs, and addictiona 12 slots for Dance/Song Daily rewards -ย login to the game every day and get rewards. Expanded subclass slotsย - you can haveย 5ย subclasses from the beginning and expand up toย 10. Class/Gender change -ย you can change your main class and gender if you want. Masterworkย items (can be obtained by crafting or farming RBs, have better bonuses than regular items). Item Broker Auctionsย in towns can sell some epic jewelry and other useful goods for adena (3 times per week). Giran Harbor Fair -ย daily event which allows you to get rare items for adena. Talentsย - special tree with passive skills which will help you to tune your class better. Events like TvT and new event WarHunt Epic Replica system. Episodes -ย we open new content step by step to keep you engaged, bring more fun and extend the game. Episodes reveal following features: Progressive grade unlocks:ย B-grade is max available at launch โ†’ then A-grade opens โ†’ later S-grade. Reworked locations: Mithril Mines and Plunderouse Plains Hellbound Island Isle of Preyer, with new content, new Dynasty gear PvP item improvementย allows you to improve your items with additional bonuses. Charmsย can be equipped in one of the special slots that open when wearing a bracelet. Each type of charm grants the wearer certain bonuses New Epic Bossesย - Freya, Beleth, Tiat, Trasken Cyclic macrosย (macros restarts when finishes) Whatโ€™s New in the Upcoming Season? Below is a brief overview of the main changes coming in the new season, along with short explanations. More detailed information about each feature will be published later, most likely in our wiki. Divisions We plan to test aย Division system on Dex, initially only forย low-tier epic bossesย (AQ, Core, Orfen, Zaken). At the same time as the main Epic Boss respawn, an additionalย instance version of the bossย will appear. Clans from theย big warย will not be able to enter this instance. The drop table isย identical to the main boss, but theย Epic Jewelry have not a 100% drop chance. Mithril Mines /data/attachments/4/4662-e7b9c5989ccf81d0b2d48e88b7aa9bc7.jpg Aย reworked locationย that will openย on the first Monday after S-grade becomes available. In this zone you will be able to: Obtain alternative recipes for S-grade equipment Get your first Charms and upgrade them up to Level 3 Obtain bracelets with 2 Charm slots Farm Void Neolithics (used for upgrade any item to Masterwork, but lose enchant level) 2 New Raid Bosses with valuable drop Fight the Raid Boss Trasken Plunderous Plains /data/attachments/4/4661-2ecd2d0a4702d31c1ba26d4b7e369285.jpg Anotherย reworked location, which will openย one week after Mithril Mines. This zone provides: GCM drops LS drop More different Charms 2 New Raid Bosses with valuable drop 3-slot Charm bracelet The ability to make PvP versions of equipment Isle of Prayer Aย locationย where players will be able to obtainย a new type of equipment - Dynasty. This area will also provide: More different Charms 4-slot Charm bracelet Upgrade charms to level 4 Hellbound Hellbound is now an endgame location.ย Almost everything can be farmed there, and theย drop quality is very high. However, the location will only be availableย during weeks without Olympiad battles. This means it will beย open for one week and closed for the next. This area will also provide: 5-6 slot Charm bracelet bracelet engravement ancient scrolls Best drop GCM Best drop LS More different charms Upgrade charms to level 5 Talents An additional talent tree has been added: the PvE branch. The PvE talent tree has its own limits and does not overlap with the standard tree. Olympiad The Olympiad will now runย 5 days per week, fromย Wednesday to Sunday. Each day you will have a limit on the number of battles you can participate in. War Hunt Event Aย new event. Players who previously played onย Skadiย may already be familiar with it. The idea is simple: You enter aย PvP zone Killing monsters grantsย points These points can beย exchanged for rewards Killing other players allows you toย steal their points PvE / PvP Layers The locationsย Mithril Mines,ย Plunderous Plains,ย IOPย andย Hellboundย will haveย two separate layers. The drop on both versions are identical. Open World Version:ย Fullย PvP zone Instance Version:ย No PvP zone, works like theย regular world with standard war/flag/PK rules Players who enjoy PvP canย defend their farming spots and gain extra advantage, while players who prefer aย safer farming experienceย can use the instance version, though withย more competition and higher population. As you can see,ย this season brings quite a lot of changes However, these are mostlyย content-related additionsย - theย core spirit and classic gameplay of the season remain unchanged. Please note thatย this is a pre-announcement, and some details may still change before theย Beta Test begins. Aย full roadmap and patch notesย will be published later. https://forum.lineage2dex.com/threads/16738/#lg=post-72311&slide=0 ย 
    • Automatic Streamer Rewards System (Twitch / Kick / TikTok) Hey everyone, Iโ€™ve developed a Streamer Rewards system for Lineage 2 servers that automatically rewards players who stream the server. The system works fully automatic: Detects if the streamer is currently live Checks if the stream title contains the server name If everything matches, the system sends a custom reward coin to the streamerโ€™s character Rewards are given every 30 minutes while streaming Supported platforms Twitch Kick TikTok Live Configurable options Reward Item ID Reward interval time Server name keyword detection Character name linked to the streamer This makes it easy to encourage players to promote the server without manual work from admins. Example flow: Player goes live on Twitch/Kick/TikTok Stream title includes the server name System detects the stream automatically Every 30 minutes the player receives a reward coin in-game Setup I can also help set up and integrate the system with your server. Works with custom coin rewards Can be configured for different intervals Additional help with installation and configuration available If you're interested or want more details, feel free to send me a PM. I also have a ticket ping system, if new ticket created on the website you can make it send you a ping on discord server for selected roles (support and stuff) but this one is basic and most likely not needed, my discord: zujarka
