Mac OSX Specific Issues / invisible man
« on: January 13, 2005, 03:23:47 am »
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. A few times when I have entered the game I have been unable to see myself. This is regardless of camera view. I even killed myself by jumping from a tower to see if in the Death realm I would become visible.  Nope.  It isnt much of a problem as I can still navigate and apparently others can see me fine but I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this bug. Generaly, I find this game to be quite good and lookforward to the growth to come.

OK perhaps my Dolphin Sonar analogy was a bad one as it deals with using sound for vision. We are talking about sound for hearing. When I car sneaks up on me in the street and then Honks I dont pass out from the sound it just startles me. Likewize bone conduction is used for hearing in Humans under certain situations and with certain devices. There is no reason to think that a loud sound or getting hit with a mele weapon would make a Krin stunned anymore than a gunshot sound would make you pass out. it would just be annoying and might slightly deafen you for a moment. As the Krin have probably been hit numerous times over the milennium it is certain they they have adapted their sound sencing mechanism so that they do not suffer severe ill effects from it. In fact sencing sound vibrations through bone, or mass conduction, is a much safer way to perceive sound as it is not localised in only one area such as the extreemly fragile human ear.

Ok  take a look again it sais they PERCEIVE sound through vibrations  not HEAR. Remember not to think about it as if it was like normal hearing. Actualy MANY real animals sence their environment through the surrounding vibrations transmiting through their bodies. It isnt a big deal nor a mystery. Just like how bats \"SEE\" by using SONAR ... they dont actualy see that way but they do have a very percise understanding of their surroundings. DOlphins dont SEE with their SONAR either  they use their eyes to see but the sonar helps them mentaly immage their surroundings. I see no reason why Kran couldnt \"Hear\" through internal vibration sencing. Evolution.. its a wonderful thing

Greetings All,
Crims, youre a champ for putting all the notes posted so far into one concise step by step fix manual. Well done!!!
    Lets all remember folks two important things:  One, This is a brand new game and the software is still being created. Dont expect perfection. The fact is that all of us are testers and over time with our help the game will grow and get better. TWO... Umm, how much did you pay for this game anyway??  Nothing...  WOW  what a concept  so dont expect perfection on day one. You should truely appreciate the efforts of some amazing individuals who GAVE this game to you FREE and remember to keep that in mind. This Game will get better, it will grow, it will continue to be amazing  so just hang in there and I guarantee it will have you comming back for more.
   As far as the comment on no toolbar,,, well that is a MAC specific Issue and I assume it will get sorted out in time.  There are many bugs to kill off and code to be written by the wizzards behind this creation. Lets all do our best to show them that the MAC community is truely appreciative and that we are team players who are patient and understanding. Lets NOT have them think that MAC users are a bunch of weeping snots. I for one, love what I see so far and will patiently live through the difficult times in anticipation of more magic to come. Help eachother out, Help the programmers with error information so they can see where to focus their efforts, Help me by giving me your in game money    LOL
   Heck, Just have fun!!!!
Enjoy, Jandar Calisto

Mac OSX Specific Issues / system setup
« on: January 09, 2005, 01:14:19 am »
Greetings and congratulations on a fantastic realm.  Following the advice given in this Forum I finaly managed to log on and create a character. As I have an older iBook I tend to be running slower than Id like and I certainly do hope that a SET UP file is added to the MAC Version. I have no idea where to begin in changing the files mentioned earlier to change my grafics settings nas I have no programing skills of note.   The only other oddity Id like to mention is that the  PLANESHIFT CRYSTAL BLUE(0.3.004) Logo has remained on my screen since I first entered the game and remains even when I quit the application totaly. I guess it will remain until I reboot.   Keep up the good work  tchau
