For the mouse the best thing to do before the bug fix in the next release is to go buy a generic map in the library in East Hydlaa, edit it and save. It fixes the mouse bug until relog. Try also in PS setup to change things for your graphics problems.

If you see a member of the jumping goffrels guild in game, he can also help you in french ;)

Good luck

PS: I've also Vista on a notebook with a bad Ati card. I needed to load unofficial "omega drivers" or something like that, hope for you you have an nvidia.

EDIT french: Pour la souris tu peux acheter une "generic map" a la librairie d'hydlaa east. Si tu trouves pas demande a un joueur. Ensuite edite la map, enregistre, et ca fait disparaitre le bug de la souris. Pour tes problèmes graphiques ouvre le PSsetup de ton menu démarrer et essaye de modifier les réglages.
Je suis aussi sous Vista avec une carte graphique ATI et j'ai du charger des drivers graphiques pas officiel pour que ca marche. Voilà :) email moi si tu as d'autres porblèmes.

i play the game :p but 1 hour later , the game server down ... :o why ? its stranqe no ? it's bad ? ;)
Title: Re: problem with vista
Post by: neko kyouran on January 06, 2008, 07:49:21 pm: many reasons why the server goes down.

probably most common reason is a server crash. mostly not that big of a deal, as the server is set to automatically come back up after a crash. so unless the server gets stuck in an endless loop crash cycle, it's back up with in 5-10 minutes or even sooner.

due to the nature of development, crashes do happen, but they are looked at constantly and fixed when they can be, so the server is actually quite stable now than what it used to be.

have fun in game. :)

It'd make a difference if it's a laptop, ATI also makes a mobility version of the X1300. But then again if you were able to install the latest drivers from the website then that's no longer relevant.

Post by: Lelerey on January 07, 2008, 06:57:20 am: Yes ATI makes mobility drivers for the laptop graphic cards... but not for vista :( I needed to install this drivers (http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool/)
