Major Moulinette Server Update on December 25th - COMPLETED

[Updated Dec 25th, 8:44 EST] The update has been successfully completed. We are now entering monitoring mode for the next 48 hours.

Dear supporters and creators,

After several months of refining the Moulinette service, it's now time to update our servers. This is a major upgrade, bringing optimizations across the board: improved automation for future updates, enhanced thumbnail generation and package processing, bug fixes, and more.

The update is scheduled for December 25th, followed by a monitoring period in the days afterward to investigate and resolve any reported issues.

This message aims to outline the expected impacts.

For Game masters (GM) and players

• No impact on all locally indexed content

• No impact on any (already) downloaded content (scenes, tokens, images, etc.)

• For Moulinette Cloud content, the module will be unavailable for several hours on December 25th. I will update this message with progress and service availability as the update progresses.

• This will also apply to all cloud features (image search, Obsidian module, browser extension, etc.).

Once the update is complete, I anticipate that some bugs may remain undiscovered during our testing due to the wide variety of content and use cases. You can report them directly in this thread, via Discord, or by submitting a bug report on GitHub. Unless there are major regressions, we plan to address the issues forward in the following days.

Thank you for your understanding!

For Creators

• Uploading new packages will be disabled on December 25th and 26th to ensure that, in the event of a rollback, no content is lost, and you won’t need to duplicate your efforts.

Once the update is complete and Moulinette Cloud is reactivated for creators, if any of your packages result in an error, we will be automatically notified and will review and fix any issues. No further action or effort will be required on your part. If users report issues with any of your content, please simply contact us via private message on Patreon or Discord.

And then ?

This update will greatly assist in future developments. Moulinette was created over 3 years ago with the goal of attracting a few creators and a hundred users, without anticipating the current success (90 creators, 4,000 members). To provide a better service, certain operations need to be automated, and some features may be revised or even discontinued. In 2025, I plan to develop new integrations (and improve existing ones) to allow you to use the same content across other platforms.

Thank you for your support, and I’d like to take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
