Now with its own page at:

Please re-download to update your installation of Gemstone IV!

Fixed a couple of bugs last night with sets and cube recipes: normal 
bows, javelins and spears were all spawning Windshears and Fundament 
Rammers instead of their exceptional/elite versions when cubed with an 
ID scroll. This has been fixed.

Gemstone IV beta-specific cube recipes are now as follows:

identify scroll + chipped ruby -> The Gemstone
identify scroll + chipped sapphire -> The Magestone
identify scroll + chipped diamond -> Damian's Survival
identify scroll + chipped amethyst -> Windshear unique bow
identify scroll + chipped emerald -> Fundament Rammer unique spear

identify scroll + any normal basic weapon -> exceptional version of 
weapon (eg, Short Bow -> Edge Bow)
identify scroll + any normal exceptional weapon -> elite version of 
weapon (eg, Edge Bow -> Spider Bow)

identify scroll + any normal basic armour -> exceptional version of 
armour (eg, Quilted Armour -> Ghost Armour)
identify scroll + any normal exceptional armour -> elite version of 
armour (eg, Ghost Armour -> Dusk Shroud)

The item upgrade recipes ONLY work on NORMAL items! This means superior, 
socketed, ethereal, magic, rare, set and unique items WILL NOT work!
These upgrade recipes are provided primarily for people importing their 
Gemstone 1.5 and Gemstone II characters, in order for them to recreate 
their potentially scrambled Gemstone-specific uniques, sets and runewords!
