Awesome, any special things we should have ready or just start the masternodes once update is ready?

Node-vps.com will update all hosted masternodes tonight at 20:00 CET

Fantastic job everyone! I will be updating my wallet today too

My wallet has synced fine, all looking good! 

Congratulations to the team. Minor bump when releasing the update, but so far everything looks great!

Yes, on some monitors it is hard to read.  We're aware of this and will create a new wallet when the time is right.

Why do the wallet have a grey font and a white background? Its very hard to read the transactions and the debug console line in my opinion.

I really like the addition of systemnodes, i try to host one or two myself.

Good spot, fixed in post.

Hi.  It should be fairly quick but until more people update, it will likely hang around the 85% mark.

Give it some time, after a few more people have updated it should be fine.

Change your throne.conf to masternode.conf.

Just had the same happen to me 

Please remember the following when updating your thrones (masternode)

there was a namechange, so you have to go into the crown.conf and change the following

throneprivkey=xXxx..
needs to be
masternodeprivkey=xXxx..
and
throne=1  
needs to be
masternode=1

also, untill enough nodes are online, you might need to keep trying to start the service node

I've updated my controller wallet and was wondering how long the "Syncing additional data" step should take, for me it seems stuck at 85% and is looping through the various bits of info but never seems to complete.  Is there anything else I need to do to get it to run?  Also the Masternodes/System nodes menu options aren't visible for me yet.

Thank you for any help!

Crown Systemnodes - Major Release 12.3.0

The Crown team is delighted to announce the release of the Systemnodes update today.

We have worked hard the past couple months on this release. It represents a big step forward for the Crown Project towards what we think is a fundamental step in the broader adoption of blockchain technology. The goal of the Crown project is to provide a decentralised platform that enables individuals and businesses to build a future as they envision it by making use of the vast capabilities blockchain has to offer.

Systemnodes are the first piece in a series of updates that will allow this vision to become a reality. Systemnodes are a key element in the network features that will drive Crown Atomic (read more at https://crown.tech/atomic).

In this release, Systemnodes will act as incentivised full-nodes. The next update will incorporate a Network Time Protocol, a step essential in solving the need for mining. The Crown project is working on a non-PoW, non-PoS, 3rd way to secure transactions. This is to be announced at a later time.

Attention

Please note that to ensure the continuation of Masternode earnings, all Masternode owners are advised to please update their local- and VPS-wallets at the earliest convenience.

All block explorers, miners and exchanges are asked to update also.

Systemnodes and Masternodes may not behave in a stable manner until a significant portion of the network has updated.

After November 20th, 2017, all wallets must be updated. Old wallets after that date will no longer be able to take part in the network.

What's New

• Name change: Thrones/Trons to Masternode
  The naming of nodes remained scattered in the code and documentation. It has been decided to move to a standardized name. Therefore from this update on, “Throne” or “Tron” will be renamed “Masternode” in all instances.

• Systemnodes (500 Collateral / 0.9CRW per block)
  To run a Systemnode, a collateral of 500 crown is required. From each block, 0.9 CRW is divided between all Systemnodes. See expected earnings here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_xNpVnMJrIhSGxHRXAtcDljWnc/view?usp=sharing
  
  Miners will receive 3.6 instead of 4.5 Crown per block to account for this.

• Added Systemnodes to GUI
  

• Budget proposal failsafe (Mainnet=16tg5tuZrPKoBwfbmj2tmiEPhVPzyn3gtP)
  A bug caused two rounds of proposal funds to not be paid. The bug has been fixed, and to prevent the loss of funds in the future, a failsafe has been implemented.

• Removed all UI use of Darksend
  Anonymous transactions discourage governments to work with us. Crown’s implementation is and will continue to be compliant with local authorities. For this reason anonymous transactions have no value for the network.  

• Fully functional testnet
  A fully functional test environment has been set up.

• Added new seednodes for both main and testnet
  Seednodes (nodes that broker a connection from your client to the p2p network on client start-up) received an update for both the Crown network and have been added to the test environment.

How to update local wallets:

Simply download the new version and replace your old one.  You can check you are on the correct version by typing getinfo into the console and you should see version 12.3.0.

How to update Masternodes (Previously known as Thrones)

Update guides and scripts will be released later today and posted in all official channels.

For the more technically confident, Masternode update is as simple as replacing the executables and changing all references to Throne to read Masternode instead, including changing throne.conf to masternode.conf and references to throneprivkey to masternodeprivkey.

How to set up a Systemnode

Systemnode setup is similar as setting up a masternode except you only need 500 CRW collateral and commands will be prefixed Systemnode rather than Masternode.
Systemnode setup scripts and guides will be published later today in all official channels.


Bug Reporting

If you find any bugs, please report them to the core team in the “Public Testing BUGS” channel that you can find at http://mm.crownlab.eu

So, they post on this forum that there is a problem with the new update.
It would be more then reasonable to keep the people posted on progress on that platform.

Its useless to post half the information...

Updates are done very often in our chat mm.crownlab.eu

Maybe join to stay up to date man  

Ofcourse we hope it will succeed but the lack of communications is pretty concerning.

They could at least place an update every 12 hours or so.
Takes about 2 minutes and keeps the people from guessing whats going on.

Can someone give an update on this bug?

The new wallet is still not available.
