Title: Emmissary Scroll Funny Bug
Post by: OZRhino on January 13, 2005, 05:07:00 pm

Morare here.
When I was just messing around, as I usually do, I found this little bug.
I don\'t know if someones already found it, but here it is :D

For these pics, I placed 2-4 dwarfs in the plaza, one on each stair column.

One user even complimented me ;)

Took me heaps of effort, the end result was quite funny.
Hope you enjoyed ;)

DO NEVER EVER POST THIS KIND OF INFO!

This is classed as public quest cheating.
If you want to report these kind of bugs, take contact with a dev in the right deparment (I\'m NOT in the right dep for this :P)

Ah ok, I\'ll edit it, do you want the details on how to do it removed, or just everything ?
;)

Although, you gotta say, it does look quite funny. :D

I\'ve edited the details out.
I\'ve just noticed something, this should be in the Bugs Semi-Forum, Mod\'s could you please move it there, thankyou ;)

last time I saw mesh-absent things arranged on the plaza stair pillars was right after server went linkdead (crashed?). I thought more malign hacking was the reason.

Well, the Emissionary/Dwarf Scrolls move like regular players.
I guess this could slow down the server, or your computer, I experianced lower fps when looking at these guys

A Dev might be able to answer this for us ;)

Emissionary Scrolls and Rotten Meat have no mesh, so it defaults to the dwarf. Dropping them all over the Plaza, which I saw you do today, is a great way to lag everyone out.

I pick up any of these objects I find, since the server is unstable enough as it is, without meshless items littering the floor everywhere.

Well, I didn\'t exactly put them \'everywhere\'.
And I was going to pick them up after my screenshot ;)

This should be \"easily\" (meaning the solution is easily figured not easily applied :) ) corrected by changing the mesh considered as default to another one like a potion or even a tria.  Of course it would be harder to pick back up.
