Hay once the /spawn command is gone what do we do if we get ourselves stuck, or come accross another bug, and can\'t move?  I have used it a couple times because of that.

Before you get rid of it, can we have a commemerotive \"last spawn\" as a salute? :P

I have had to used the /spawn command often. Mostly when  I fall in to no where land. Unstick dosen\'t seem to work for me then. And since the server remembers where you were at it just spawns me back in no where land after I log out.

If you get stuck and /unstick doesn\'t work, /tell a GM. (Elscha, Cad, Ozymandis, Nepthis, Pogo, Feran are a few GMs.)

Send the /spawn to where it belongs! To it\'s doom, to it\'s death!!!!!! For those who\'s soul is ironed are not afraid to find the way out, not afraid to stuck between levels! (roar) For if that is our destiny, we shall gladly accept it!

While this whole /spawn removal thing is all very well, I still want to push the fact that I can\'t see a darn thing in the death realm, and keep falling off the edge.  Can we at least have a map, or a realm where you can actually see where you\'re going?  All I get is a large expanse of black.

Maybe you got some hardware problems? The death realm was pretty well lighted last time i was there. You usually appear at the bottom of some stair case, you walk up the stairs, across some metallic bridge and then up a spiral \'path\'  [which goes around the large pillar you enter after the bridge]   which might be hard to see. Then it\'s another ladder, past some flying creature across another bridge into the mouth of huge facial sculpture [pinkish aura there] and voila teleported back out. All this is a very short distance last i checked [literally 1 minute if you got past the spiral path quickly]. You most certainly don\'t need a map for that?

If you are on a Windows client, definately check your control panel and make sure you are running in 32bit graphics mode.
I understand there\'s a command line switch - gamma if you are running a Linux client.

turn up gamma in your nvidia/ati controll panel or brightness on moniter

I\'ll see what I can do, but I am running the Mac client if that\'s any conselation...

Title: Follow, follow, follow
Post by: shifthappens on January 20, 2005, 04:59:15 am

I just follow someone past the tricky bits, (no light in the dark realm) and then into the game, once I have light again.  Why not those who are dying or have die (???hmmmmm) just ask around if others who can see and just follow?

Suddenly I\'m struck by the sureal aspects of following someone in the death realm.

Ahahaha!  That\'s a point!

Anyway, I do usually follow someone in the DR, and alot of them are so nice they stop and wait for me :)  I think I\'ve kind of memorised the way, but it\'s still unnecessarily tricky...

When an area it is too dark you could regulate the brightness of the video of your pc :-)

Btw, I don\'t think that posting the \"complete big\" solution on how to get it out was really \"nice\". OK, it\'s not matter of a quest, but ...
