For the “dangerous winds” quest, the declining option is “No way, Nodramok scares me!”. However, by that time you neither have been told about Nodramok, nor do you have winch access, so you cannot know of him.

When you go to Kilas the first option is to say “Bevon sent me for the copy of the plans, are they ready?”. However, if you choose that option, Kilas goes on about Lori (whom one doesn’t have mentioned at all) and that he can’t give you the plans. Then he’ll abruptly switch to positive and give you some plans, and ends with “I hope Lori enjoys it”.
Looks like there’s a mixup or at least a very misleading text in the responses. The quest is screwed afterwards because it’s not the right plans, it seems.

If there is already a character on an account, and you select “new character”, then abort (at any time, pressing “back”), one of the existing chars is displayed on the podest, but “new character” is still highlighted (which it shouldn’t be).
If you now select an existing char, everything works normally, BUT if instead, immediately after aborting the char creation, you click “join”, nothing happens (OK), but after that every button except “log out” and “Quit” doesn’t work anymore.

Talking to Jirosh, you say “…I was send…“, which should be “sent”.

When you have something targetted so that your target marker appears, and then use mouse run (making the green waypoint marker appear), the target marker changes to look like the waypoint marker. Also, when you do the converse, target something while the waypoint marker is active, the waypoint marker changes to be like the target marker, until you untarget.

Additionally, in that case, you keep running, eventually past the waypoint, so it seems to lose the meaning of that marker, even if you untarget (making it look normal again) before you reach the marked location.

When you open the training window, a skill may be still selected from the last time the window was open. However, if you then choose “buy skill” or “buy skill level”, it says “You have to select a skill to buy”. Clicking the already seemingly selected skill does not change the GUI, but training now works.

When your victim resists, the message says “…, but they resist, doing only XY damage.”. This should probably be “getting” or “receiving”, similar to the “partially resist” case.

In the training window, the description for the Dark Way says “more myth then any of…“; should be “than”. Also, it looks like there might be an excessive whitespace between “being” and “the”, and another one between “any” and “practicioners”.

Image says it all…

When you add a task, you can edit it for some time. However, this has some odd effects:

1) There is no option to set the privacy state.
2) When the task is set to private, it will be set to public when you edit it, with no way to prevent or change it afterwards
3) You can’t set completion percentage when creating the task, but you can set it when editing it, even as lowly reporter.

For whatever reason, you can give Jardet a Night Mushroom. At least if you follow the obvious quest path, there is no point where you are asked to do so, yet you can, and he’ll accept it.

Also, while this quest is being looked at, anyway, I’d like to reiterate that when talking to Aerayau, he breaks the line after “Mrs.”.

The declining text says “a bit to much for me”, should be “too much”.

Allelia says “You must you must be…“… that’s double “you must” there.

It says “patches of itare gone”. Since PS#1435 was closed as “could not verify”, I made a screenshot in case it is an engine issue with words which fit into the line only by one character short, and get placed there one space too far left.

You can still ask NPCs about pure water after having gotten it, and even after getting <the item> off Levrus.

When you ask Malco about the name, you refer to Gurgus as “he” instead of “kra”.

Also, the issue raised in PF#4004 still exists on Laanx.

Additionally, Frilaa says after reading the letter “T.’ Oh, she knows!”. The “T.’ " should probably be in the previous line, so the meaning is more obvious.

One can walk accross the void (not just accross the chains) at pos DR01 -80.56 -99.29 -0.66 and -80.35 -99.22 6.98; if this is supposed to be a bridge, then there is the texture missing for the floor. See http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v490/Seytra/Planeshift/shot72.jpg

It has always been annoying to me that the cast window is unhighlighted unless you click on it. It is a temporary information message, like the onscreen echoes, so it should not use the normal GUI mechanics, which only make sense for things that don’t auto-vanish.
Additionally, with the new skin, it doesn’t allow you to set transparency; that in itself is OK, but it doesn’t seem to be fully opaque either.

Also, the window itself is too large vertically, and the cast progress bar is too small (vertically) and too dark.

Having a separate window for it doesn’t seem to help a lot, though I can see some uses (for which I would personally prefer to have it not auto-vanish, though, just smaller, maybe auto-vanish can be made into an option?). Maybe the bar could instead be integrated into the normal info overview window, for example as quad-height (compared to it’s current height) bar behind the spell power fader (standing over on top and bottom), and if possible in orange or yellow, to better contrast?

The texture of the pillars on the second-highest level of the Eagle are misaligned. See images:

I have failed at this quest twice because my reply did not match the intended trigger. I used the word “swap”, while the riddle expects “switch”, according to other players. Edit: Maybe “exchange” should be added as well unless it is already there.

In the ending dialog, he says “whatever devil…“; is that word within the settings?

Talking to Aerayau, he breaks the line after “Mrs.”.

You get the option to hand the requisition form to Aerayau before before you are given it.

Descriptions of Stonebreaker NPCs say “you see a StoneBreaker…“, which should be “Stonebreaker”. Probably applies to all SBs, even PCs.

Jardet says “well you came to the right place”. Should be capital “W”.

Also, you can still ask people about pure water after you get some.

Especially since the more or less recent changes in item pricing, which resulted in a signficant rise in prices for (previously) commodity items like food, the prices for jewellery are completely off. For example, one of the golden rings, about which Toda makes a real fuss, despite having a whole crate of them, sells for 40T. This is less than 1/3rd of what merchants now charge for a single bread.
Likewise, not even special (magical) jewellery sells for significantly more than these standard 40 trias. All jewellery that I have come accross, special or common, lies in this range and therefore is completely off.

Boilghere says in it’s opening speech “… does not make` a good cook…“; that “`” does not belong there.

Also, after being given a diamond, it emotes “… returns you the diamond crystal”. Shouldn’t that better be “… returns the diamond crystal to you”?

You can approach Amakeer and say “I was wondering if you needed anything else…“, which does not make sense since you can’t have done anything for it yet…

When you have, say, two daggers in your hands and then drop a rockpick on your char doll, it says “This item cannot be equipped.”. This message is wrong (because it can be equipped, contrary to really unequippable items), and it should equpip, by swapping with the appropriate dagger.

The initial declining sentence says “I am way to busy”, should be “too”.

Neither the stats & skills window nor the mini window get updated. The health and mana bars remain at the percentage they were before the penalty wore off. Only a subsequent change (like casting a spell or getting hurt) triggers an update of the respective bar, but not both.

Jayose emotes: “retrieves a book and a small pouch which he hands to you.”. Later, he talks about “ink and paper”, and this is what you are given, not a book.

When you decline to help Zak, you can still ask Kerryk to give you Talad’s head.

After returning the book to Jayose, you still get to say that you give it to him.
After giving the receipt to Kerryk, you also still get to give it to kra.

Also, until you give Kerryk the receipt, a quest dialog with the answer to kras first question appears, so you don’t need to research that one.

W2k: the updater tries to self-update and creates a file “pslaunch2.exe”. It then tries to run it, but it fails with a message indicating that it cannot find “freeaddrinfo” in “WS2_32.dll”.

Micro$oft says you need to include a couple of headers (Ws2tcpip.h file and Wspiapi.h) to make it work on pre-XP systems; see
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms737931(VS.85).aspx

I can still use the old pslaunch, but because it always tries to self-update first, I cannot update the game; the only option ATM is to use –repair.

W2k: the keys “/, *, -, +” of the numeric pad don’t input to the chat window anymore, you need to use the normal ones instead. Using them as control triggers still works, however.

Bringing up the right-click menu on yourself, you get to introduce yourself to yourself, as often as you like. Should only be enabled for schizophrenics. ;)

This quest mixes up at Trasok with any quest asking for “Yes” or “no”: when you have not talked to Trasok about it yet, but say “Yes” to him, he’ll take that as answer to the question whether you will go help with the riddle, which he has not asked you yet.

When you ask Vladovic about Tseg, the sentence starts in lowercase.

Also, the Greetings and other dlg options appear immediately (probably OK), but remain when used. Not serious.

You ask Brado “…anything in Chrosor drink that…“, missing an ‘s there.

Also, later it says “column of Dark magic”. Maybe that should be “Dark Way”, or lowercase?

By chance, I started pslaunch with –console today, only to find it claiming that the configuration doesn’t match the server’s, and that it could not update and I need to –repair.
Since I didn’t get any update for over a week I closed it and opened it without –console. Sure enough, there was no offer to update, nor even the slightest hint that there might be anything wrong. If you don’t know, or at least suspect there is an update, you would be left with an old version forever.

The “No” response says “Oh yes you, No sorry I have to wash my hair”. Is this intended?

At Kada’s, you say “I was send for Finra’s food”, which must be “sent”, and at the second time you still have that option, despite having delivered it already.
The two options remain to the end of the quest.

The options to ask people who cooks remain even after getting the recipe.

The riddle dialogs for Jayose stay after having answered the respective riddle (correctly, of course ).

When paying Reffitia, you say “Here is my payment”; shouldn’t it be “Here’s your payment” instead?

Talking to Jeyarp, one says “…, name of Deelor,…“; shouldn’t this either be “name is Deelor”, or “of name Deelor”?

At least on Linux 32bit, when using the graphical launcher to repair the install, if the install passes all integrity checks, the completion message to that effect is not printed to the GUI, only to the console. If running the launcher unattended (which is likely), upon coming back to it one’ll wonder if it is hanging. Granted, the “Cancel” button turns into “OK”, but that’s not as clear as it should be.

Since I (and I expect several others as well) am using a custom skin for one character, I need to re-modify materials.zip after each update. Due to the use of binary diffs in the updater, it is not possible for it to simply exchange the changed files in the archive. So I need to copy back the old archive each time before updating.
With the newest update, however, this for some reason did not work: the update failed and now it’s downloading the whole 160 MB. Again. After already having downloaded an update file of 170MB for essentially nothing. This is the fifth time it did that, although the first time it happened despite of me having copied back the original file FAICT (the other times I had forgotten to make a backup or to copy it back, etc., pp.).

Also, the “backup” it does did not work: instead of copying the archive before messing with it, it created a file of zero length, so I can’t even interrupt the update and just use the old file, and instead will have to sit through another wasted hour of leisurely downloading a file that it has just deleted (shame on me for moving the old file back instead of copying). Also, again.

It would save a lot of download time (and bandwidth, at least if I’m not the only one with such issues) if the files that are likely to be customised were in separate archives, or at least in one file like the previous models.zip.
Of course, the ideal way to handle this would be to have an override folder or at least an override.zip which gets mounted over the vfs, like it was done in NWN, likely among others.

I’m going to make a script to auto-copy them, but still maintain the FR to have an override folder.
