Title: Magic = Trouble
Post by: Gentar on May 13, 2005, 05:31:43 pm

the magic system works great....70% of the time. and the other thirty percent is incredibly annoying. What happens is that sometimes when i cast a spell i get a diagnostic report thing and the game shuts down.

I never had this problem myself.
Maybe you should give us more details so we can try to reproduce the bug and make a petition in game telling the steps to follow.

Seems to be the flame burst problem. If cast repeatedly in quick succession, this spell makes the client crash. I haven\'t been getting this problem recently because I have taken to cast some freeze after every ~3 flame bursts to let it cool down a bit. :) Doing something else (like attacking physically) seems to also work, so it seems to be a timing problem.

If you remember when Crystal Blue first came out the game would shut down at random and you would get an option to save a error or diagnostic report. Well, after a while the team had worked out most of these bugs. Recently though it seems that when i use magic every once in a while i get the error and the game closes
