The Hydlaa Plaza / Lordi

« on: May 25, 2006, 10:09:02 am »

The winner of this year's Eurovision Songfestival was Lordi, a hardrock band.
The eurovision had been known to produce the most worse music on earth and this year was no difference, did anyone see Iceland?

Anyway, after having seen the half finals I didn't watch the finals because the music was so bad, but then I heard Lordi had won, I really didn't see that coming.
So I listened to their music and it's quite good for a Eurovision song.
What do you think about it?

The song is available on their (myspace

) website with the official clip: http://www.myspace.com/thelordi
The performance on Eurovison is available here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OqBGffYpE9I

Server Status / New fast mirror for Planeshift! (client .3.18)

« on: May 03, 2006, 06:20:02 pm »

I contacted Willem van der Poel from the FTP crew at the Technical University in Twente (Netherlands) if he wanted to put the latest version of Planeshift on their public FTP, and he granted my request. That means Planeshift will now have a new fast mirror, it's a university FTP, so there's more than enough bandwith (understatement).
I quickly tested the mirror and I downloaded with 400 kb/sec, with a spike at 600 kb/sec, so yeah, that's fast

Don't thank me, all thanks go to Willem van der Poel and the University!

This is the FTP folder from Planeshift:
http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/games/planeshift/

And this is the direct link:
http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/games/planeshift/client/PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.exe

This is the direct link for the Linux version:
http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/games/planeshift/linux/PlaneShift_CBV0.3.018.bin

This is the direct link for the Mac version:
http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/games/planeshift/mac/PlaneShift_CB_Mac_018.dmg

Some people have reported download times under 5 minutes, so Have fun! $\\o//$

*Mirror updated with version .18 thanks to Robbert Muller!

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Yoho, npc/player making circles?

« on: May 03, 2005, 11:27:36 am »

I logged in to PS today and I noticed something strange.
Near Harnquist, a player named Yoho was continuously making circles around a tree, and his legs weren\'t moving. I tried to speak to him with /tell, but I couldn\'t. It said \"yoho is not a valid player name\". I also couldn\'t challenge him, it said \"you can only challenge other players\", but his name was green and not blue like a npc. I asked someone if he knew what was going on with this Yoho guy, but he said he couldn\'t see anyone named Yoho, and Yoho was right in front of him. Does anyone know what could\'ve caused this strange error?

I have the latest version of PS (I just checked) and I had sounds disabled.
After a relog, Yoho was gone. I suspect it was a test of advanced pathfinding for npc\'s, but I\'m probably wrong.

Technical Help: IN GAME bugs (after loading world) / Stop Attack button

« on: February 01, 2005, 08:43:04 am »

After the latest update I noticed a stop attack button was added next to the bloody/defensive/etc attack buttons. The icon of this button is the same as bloody attack and that\'s confusing. When I tried to kill rats I didn\'t understand why I did no damage and they were killing me. I kept clicking on the bloody attack button and my character did nothing. I was thinking it was a bug until I noticed the description on the button: \"stop attack\". So would you please replace the icon of the stop attack button from the bloody attack icon to something like a lowered weapon. I would apreciate it.

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Sudden CB crash

« on: December 24, 2004, 03:01:17 pm »

Hi!

I just created a new character and spawned at Hydlaa Plaza. I said hi to gronomist and walked up the stairs. Standing near some trees I wanted to check my inventory if I had some trias or the ring. Well I didn\'t (why? I played MB..). So I wanted to click away the inventory window, I clicked the cross in the corner of the window, Planeshift froze for about 2 seconds and then shut down and showed me an error message.
My dump file is here:

http://www.thomhurks.com/PlaneShift_Thomphoenix Hurks_Version_Dec 24 2004_Addr7C00724A.dmp
(copy/paste the url to work)
I hope it will be fixed soon.

Also, when I opened the update program and used it, it started downloading a couple of files. Is there already an update?? After that, each time I opened the updater and clicked on update it downloaded \"updater.txt\". I think that is a bug too, because there isn\'t a point on continuously downloading this file.

Good luck with these bugs and keep up the good work on planeshift!

EDIT:
Encountered another problem: a lot of places are too dark! When I left the city using the gate near the huge tower I walked up a forest path. After a while the forest path got so dark I couldn\'t see where I was walking, everything was just black. But the worst \"blackness problem\" I got was in Deathrealm. Yes, I got myself killed

And when I spawned in deathrealm I noticed how dark everything was. I repeatedly walked into an abyss because I couldn\'t see where I was walking. The problem has nothing to do with my screen, because my brightness is set at 100 already, CB is too dark.

Hi,

I was just walking around in Hydlaa when i saw something strange: floating barrels! I tried to post this issue in \"bugs\" but I got an acces denied error, so I am posting this issue here.
This is a screenshot of the floating barrel:

I hope you fix this and I helped you.
