Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Different Bugs/Suggestions
« on: August 19, 2002, 08:59:10 am »
First of all, the game looks great so far. I\'ve played it a whopping 10 minutes before I realized I couldn\'t do much do to the lack of players on at the time (just me) and the fact that I don\'t know much about it.
BUGS:
OpenGL runs extremely slow on my machine. 1130 Ghz Genuine Intel, Video Card:Mobility Radeon, 16 MG Memory. 512 MG RAM. Most games that I own that use OpenGL run smooth and fine. Don\'t know if this is a bug or not, or if it\'s just using a ton of memory to run in this mode.
The game is popping up in a full window. Not full screen. Any suggestions/ideas?
The magic book icon. When you click on it, brings up what spells you can cast. How do you close it? I spent 5 minutes alone trying to figure out how to close the spellbook.
In safe mode for the game (which I have to use, otherwise it\'s extremely slow), not everything is aligned correctly within the window. For starters I have to set my task bar to auto-hide so I can see the rest of the window. Some of the items to pick for your character you need to click right below the actual text/button to activiate. Again, alignment problems. Missing pictures for some of the races. I\'m sure you probably don\'t have the graphics for them yet.
SUGGESTIONS:
Other RPG\'s I\'ve played, when creating your character the starting stats were not quite so high. 27 for everything is just a bit too much. My suggestion is to lower them down, and have different statistics per race. A possible button to re-roll random statistics if the player doesn\'t like the current selection. I\'ve seen that one in only a few other games. Possible only 10 points to distribute over the current amount.
I\'m currently fresh out of ideas for the moment. Any suggestions to these statements/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
