It has been brought to my attention that friendly AoE spells can be used to detect invisible GMs who are within the range of the spell. A check on spells cast from accounts with 0 security could be added that only allows friendly spells to be cast on targets which are ‘visible’ hereby preventing GMs from being targeted when invisible.

Even with the recent improvement of the spell research behaviour, I think it is a bit tedious to find spells with 3 glyph combinations or spells with 2 glyphs of 2 different ways.

I propose that the glyph order doesn’t matter in the assemble slots.

Wouldn’t it also be more logical if the glyph order doesn’t matter?

This is with PSUnreal 0.7.35!

Yay for the new Global chat!

I prefer to have all chats in one big chat log. However global chat is not marked as global inside the log file. Like this:

(some time) [chat] Damola: This is global chat!

Would be nice to have “[global]” or some other marker like this in there.

Same goes for NPC chatter and so on. Currently all messages are marked with “[chat]” which is not all that helpful for searching around in the file.

Syntax: /giveitem [PlayerName] [Qty|All] <ItemName> [Any]

• Playername is optional, otherwise default to selected target, fail if none selected
• Quantity is optional, default to 1, All gives all in inventory/equipped
• ItemName required, quotes needed for multi-word item names as in “Platinum Ore”
• Any is optional, allows items in containers to be given. Omitting this protects containered items from being given accidentally, allowing players to put things in sacks or other containers that they want to keep safe, same as the Drop command.

Similar to GM giveitem, but with the following restrictions:

• player and target must be in touch range
• player and target may be sitting or standing
• player and target must not be otherwise busy (fighting/crafting/repairing/etc.)
• no restriction for target being overburdened (available slot/stack/capacity limits still apply, see Caveats below)
• similar to PVP, players should have persistent selectable option for receiving given item(s): Always Accept / Prompt to Accept (default) / Never Accept

Along with the command, make Give an option to context menu, which opens a slot window same or similar to that which one gets when giving to an NPC.

Justification:

• Smoother and faster RP (P1 gives P2 a beer)
• Merchant assistant holding extra inventory gives things to merchant for a sale

Caveats:

• Makes using mules a little easier, as in an unattended mule with Always Accept can become a dump bucket for loot or Ore, however current trade rules allow this already, the only difference is that the mule must be attended to complete the trade, while not for receiving a Give. Eventual random spawns of monsters will mitigate this for loot, and miners still have to move all the collected ore to wherever it is to be processed or sold. IMHO the benefits to RP outweigh this issue, since miners have already worked around unattended trading to some degree, either by mAlting or dropping stacks while guarding in proximity.

Extending the idea, add a die-roll chance for target and near proximity observers to be made aware of the exchange. Giver’s Int. and Agility should apply, and Target’s Int. and Observer’s Int. should apply but I’ll leave it to devs to work out how to implement. Any exchange that is more than 1 single item should incrementally raise the chance of being observed. One might still have a good chance of slipping a couple daggers into someone’s pack, but a stack of 20 Ore would be nearly impossible not to notice. Sleeping target might also factor in.

A further extension might be an optional Sneak parameter whereby the Giver attempts to be especially discrete in the exchange, thus lowering the chance to be observed by the target or near proximity observers, but this should be mitigated by quantity as above.

Pretty much says is all. Possibly depends on  FS#5366 

Venalan will understand :)

I have a 6950, running the game at absolute max(custom) settings(minus fullscreen, it crashes), and the framerate is ~130fps(see corner, I had limiter on). I think the game has room for some graphics bumps on the “highest” settings. It would also be a good idea to future proof this game. The 6990 is about twice as good as mine or so, and who knows what year 2014 will have in store? At max settings, I think it should run on the fastest graphics card at about ~12-24 fps.

Now I know some people will be like: “How much did you spend on that computer?” and the answer is: $950.
So yes, normal people could use better graphics. I’m not some crazy uber geek with a $6000 computer(just a normal geek).

Possible additions:
Bump mapping. Cheap way to make things appear more 3d.
Super AA (draw at double resolution, scale down, future proof)
Voxel models/textures.
Another lightmap model: make a second screen, this one is an additive screen, each object reflects light to the second drawing board according to the laws of color (additive, then multiply) so for example, a candle would be yellow on the emitter lightmap, but a chair pitch black. Then after being lit by the candle you preform additive to the chair’s lightmap, and multiply it by the texture of the chair. A third map could be added for reflectivity, but I don’t know if that would be easy since I don’t program graphics.
Better textures.

when the focus is on the inventory (inventory is the active window) i can not make my character go forwards or backwards using the arrow keys. once focus is off of the inventory i can control movement. however left and right still work.

When I fight Forest Arangmas they don’t attack back. Sometimes they do but most of the time they just sit there.

In PS Legacy, when selecting an amount from a stack of items, the slider would “remember” what the previous amount was. This would be useful in PS Unreal for subdividing stacks for crafting, especially since /equip /dequip are not currently ported to PS Unreal (which was the other common way of subdividing stacks for crafting).

Font size in settings for “Speak with NPC Text” or “NPC Response Text” cannot be changed.

there are a couple of sign posts that stand together and are floating high enough to crawl under them at

/pos 294108.56 -339394.34 10933.02

floating plants at: 274673.47, -364629.59, 10927.77

It’s spawned items, probably from a natural resource location.

The Dirghir signpost, hpmhutt (floating plate) X 3, Lintel (floating stone staircase) are all out of place on the map. They are all floating in the sky.

a floating book, that claims to be a dead bird, is floating and inaccessible as it has no collision and thus not allowed to be picked up. position of the book is found by going to /teleport me map hydlaa_plaza 337145.72 -345854.81 10980.61 on teleport you are directly where the book is situated and on a rivnak, a nolthrir has it head high.

As the daytime progresses, each few minutes you see the shadows on the floor flashing, especially obvious near the Laanx temple and on the plaza.

It looks like the shadowmap is completely removed, then restored with a tiny delay. Might be necessary to display shadow states of different daytimes?

At least it is a lot less annoying than the repeated switching between several shadowmaps in earlier versions.

The fishing animation for the female stonehammer reels in the rod with the right hand, but the reel on the rod is for reeling with the left hand. This may affect other character models as well.

If you try to equip an item from a container into an invalid slot, the item becomes invisible till you reopen the container.

With

- a skill level of 218 (i.e. 186 natively)7
- an unpolished speciment of Q300 to work on

I created a final result for an enchanted gold necklace of Q126

This is an extremly unrealistic random outcome.

I opened
planeshift/data/gui/scripthirednpcwindow.xml and got the mesage at my browser.
At Line 4 is savepositions=”yes” twice listed.

I recently wanted to create a shortcut to summon my Rivnak, but it doesn’t work exactly like it should…Here are the commands of my shortcut :

/dequip leftfinger
/equip Ring of Summon Familiar
/pet summon Bigadin
/dequip leftfinger
/equip Crystal Ring

Of course, using the commands one by one in the chat works perfectly. But here is the chat log after using the shortcut :

Usage: /equip [stack count] [slot] [item name]
You feel a connection to your familiar.
You’ve gained 1 Practice points in Empathy.

Weirdly, it seems that when the last line is executed, my ring is still considered equipped, and so it cannot be equipped. I thought that with another item which exist in several copies, it would work through equipping another copy, but even that do not work. I tried using it with 2 Silver Rings in my inventory (so the line /equip Crystal Ring become /equip Silver Ring), and both when the quality is the same and when it is not (and so it doesn’t stack) :

You feel a connection to your familiar.
You’ve gained 1 Practice points in Empathy.
This item cannot be equipped.

I hope the informations are sufficient to allow you to understand and solve the problem.

Certainly happens with Sapphires, making q300 Enchanted Sapphires gives no practice in a way.

When using an enchanter my character is digging or lunging.

This should be the same animation as spell casting IMO.

i have looked at the enchanting gems mechanic, and there is an issue with experience not being recorded for the use of magic when enchanting gems. i am fully up as a blue way mage, so i was using crystal way for the enchanting. it gives basic xp but nothing in relation to magic xp, nor noes it state how many points are needed to gain the next level. my crystal way level is 60/63(with buffs).

In the enchanting armor book the recipe for enchanting brigandine helms calls for combining a mercenary helm and a set of steel plates into a brigandine helm kit. This does not work. In order to create the kit, you need to use the helms of darmath book. Otherwise the process works.

If you delete everything in the boxes and click the save button, the commands are back after relog.
It seems there must be at least one character in the box to get it saved.

Emote messages in chatbox from or targeting NPCs displays their names as if they have a first name if there is a space in the name. The word before the space becomes the only part of the name displayed.

“>Sarras blows a kiss at Flayed.” (Flayed Velnishi)

“>Sarras grabs hold of Dlayo and begins to dance.” (Dlayo Gladiator)

“>Poison yells for Sarras to flee!” (Poison Carkarass)

Perhaps it's just me, but while Electrotouch is in effect there's a constant grating buzzing sound that just hurts like nails on a chalkboard.

Giving a Guild level the permission to edit gild points is not honoured. The flag is shown, but if someone of ther permitted group tries to edit the points of himself or another member he gets “you don’t have the permission…”

Additionally, editing permissions is not propageted to other online members. Ie. they do not see any changes in guild privileges.

Last paragraph: kra has no gender therefore the he’s should be changed to kra’s.

The kran looks at the written page, tilting his head a bit and scratching the top with his left hand. - “Well, I never been a novelist, but that should do it, I guess.” He stands up from the giant crystal table, picks a thick cloak and looks outside the window of his sculptured stone house. He concentrates a bit and thanks to his magic vision, he reaches the Hydlaa plaza. - “mmmm… there is still much more to do, but things are surely getting better. Time for some magic!”

Dragging a glyph from an inventory container (e.g. sack or glyph sack) into any slot in Spell Research window causes the glyph to disappear from the container until window is re-opened.

Steps:

- Open Spell Research window from “spellbook”.

- Open glyph sack and drag glyph into any slot in Spell Research window. (Try to use Research or Way slots. Purify Glyph slot only reproducible if right hand has item equipped.)

- Glyph seems to have disappeared from container, but will reappear if window is refreshed.

Additional info:
Dragging glyph from glyph sack on the ground to Spell Research slots puts it into inventory.
Moving a glyph from inventory into Purify Glyph slot equips the glyph in right hand but does not begin purification.
(Not sure if these features are conflicting with spell research.)

The reason for this request is to prevent guests from stealing.

If one tries to login into a locked guildhouse one has no key for one’s position should be reset.

Guildhouses usually have only one exit so the position outside of the house should be clear.

I think it would be nice to see the actual quality of the stored items too in the storage.

Now, you can see the amount, the price and the name of the item.
Sometimes with lot of similar items but with different qualities, it could help you to chose what you need.
At the moment, you need to click on each same named item stacks to see what you need.

I know it would reduce the maximum number of the storable items per category, but considering the long names of looted items, I think this 8 bytes wouldn’t make big difference.

Hi,
to make the interface less confusing, please let the chat window have the “Guild” and “Group” tabs only when the character is in a guild or group. Or at least make hiding these tabs an optional feature.

This would also make it possible to add an alliance chat tab to the chat window without bloating it for the people who are not in an alliance. see my FR #2688 for this.

The quality of items shown during mouse over is one lower then the actual quality shown in info box after right click.

The Diseased rats improperly apply the raging feaver effect to nearby players who are not interacting with it.

The majority of illnesses carried by rodents require physical contact or a bite to be transmitted and this effect should not be applied to someone simply walking by unless the rat targets and attacks the player directly. additionally since the diseased rats do not attack players unprovoked their AI has no business targeting players with an effect without being in combat

additionally healing potions and or crystal way should remove this effect as it is not a magical curse but rather a mundane sickness

lastly as a minor effect caused by combat with a monster the duration of raging fever lasts far too long for a monster of such a low level as a general rule of MMO's no status debuff caused by a monster should last more than at most 2-3 minutes after the end of a combat encounter and those that do should have easily accessible means of counteracting it such as potions or spells.

The quest option advised by Sharven (”[…] HE has decided […]”) is correctly presented by the interaction menu,

but on selection it is not recognised by Roniston (”[…] You could ask me to tell you about something, perhaps?”)

Quest progression is thereby blocked the Keen Edge chain broken again (after yesterday’s fix of “Slimy Doubt”).

Objective: Let mages dial down the power to suit their needs of the moment, and accordingly the mana cost, time to cast, improved success chance.

The /cast command should accept power values from -99 to +99

The power slider should center at zero and sliding left should dial down to -99 and sliding right should dial up to +99

Perhaps -50 to +50 would work better?

Perhaps practice and experience should be dialed down accordingly as well?

the signpost that is supposed to point to the derghir village is floating in the air in ojaroad 1

/pos 343155.47 -335075.34 8986.41

it is also not pointing in the correct direction.

i cant dequip it while repairing but i can equip another item so the one im repairing is in inventory

why in gods name we have a seperate sit and stand command is beyond me in fact it is completely idiotic. there is no need for /stand in a game that is properly programmed

/sit should perform both functions act as a toggle

void sit()
{
if(player.isSitting) player.stand();
else player.sit();
}

with as script like this the /stand command can be removed from the game simplifying shortcuts.

additionally the addition of a sit right click action on specific furniture should be added to ensure that characters who wish to appear sitting in chairs will be properly snapped into position and animated as such

Death animations play inconsistently for several NPCs. ex. Rogues in Oja and Cutthroats on Ojaroad, forest aragama on the road between the magic shop and Hydlaa.

Sometimes the animations will play, but most of the time they do not.
