It seems I have run into an issue with the Ring of Familiar quest.  At the point in the quest when I am attempting to give the 10 diamonds to Levrus to complete the quest, it seems I am unable to do so.  

When I attempt to give him the  diamonds it gives me these messages:

popup messages in the middle of the screen
\"Trade complete\" (Green)
\"Levrus Dahrenn does not need that.\" (Red)

messages in the chat window
\"Levrus Dahrenn tells you: Wow, you found them! (etc, etc) The ring is ready. It\'s yours.\"
\">Fist does not fit in this slot.\"
\"Levrus Dahrenn tells you: Wow, you found them! (etc, etc) The ring is ready. It\'s yours.\"
\">Fist does not fit in this slot.\"


When I check my inventory after these messages, it seems my 10 diamonds are still there, and I have not recieved the ring.  Upon further checking I find it does properly detect that 10 have been offered, because when I do a number other than 10 it does the same popup messages, however the chat window messages do not appear.  This has happened every time I have tried to do this.  I have had other people confirm that it happens to them as well.

I did search high and low for another post regarding this topic, but I didnt find it here or even in the bugtracker. Hope that I am not posting on something that has already been covered.

i AM Having same Problem with thw brado Mug quest
when i try to give the Order book to then Other NPC (forgot his name) it says Tred completed (green), Npc does not need that (red) :shrug:

If each idea was new and original, and met the why criteria, then yes, you should have made several new threads.  It is best to limit your topic as much as possible because threads have a way of going off topic all by themselves.  Making a specific topic helps focus the conversation.  However, things like PvP, loot and short cuts to dungeons have been suggested before, so there is no need to start a new thread for those topics.  The loot issue is still fresh. The post that is just below this one (at this instant anyways) would be a good place to post your ideas on looting. Here is a link

http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=7864&boardid=11&styleid=3

The PvP issue has its own forum, please check it out.  read the stickies and Paxx\'s \"does anyone get it\" post.  Shortcuts have been discussed before, and to summerize the debate in a few words, \"its just not Planeshift\".

Good ideas on the mining. I think It is good to have input from someone who has some real world exp, however your system sounds a bit complicated to me.  Keep in mind you will have to figure out how to do a lot more stuff in order to make make anything from ore.

this is the prosscess of Prospectin
Prospector get gear+
goes to place he suspect to have gold+
he survey the river/creek/stream/ect.+
prospector gos to the aformetins (possible)sorces of the mineral+
he makes lots of sample pans to help him determain the quanity of the gold avalible +
when he has made his desision+
he sets up his equipment /pans/shovel/ect.+
Prospector goes to work Mining +

It isnt complicated it is just a proscess ..for the game id suggest it to work like this..

Hit the button for (prospectin) eureka/skunked this is where you try to assertain thepresance of the ore you seek..

seting up the dig site : this is where certian equpment will give you certian bonuses to retrieving moreIn the river /Placer/ in the Hard rock mine / Ore..

prspector recovers the gold...(now at this point) he has finishe working his claim, he now has raw gold he has the choice of selling it right out,.  Placer is more of the gold than ore (Placer)/is where the ore has eroder from the Lode(aka) rock has tumbled down the hill, been rained on, washed in the the stream, traveled down the stream to the river been in a few hundred heavy storms  and through all that it gets pounded on the river botton,/ Bed rock/river rocks/hard pack clay/ect.

and if he has done hard rock mining he need to proscess his ore /crush it in a stamp mill( that a primitive machine with pistons that crush the ore.the he take the crushed ore to the pans to pan out the gold...

Hey why am I not able to create a account for it....I fill in the Blanks and it jsut goes (CLICK) and nothing else...

It\'s like the only way to die in this game.  I swear.  I\'ve been playing for an hour and i\'ve killed rogues but my greatest enemy is the EFFIN super round hills where all of a sudden I fall through the landscape or just randomly and die.

This is be my 13th trip through the DR.

Anyone need a tour guide?

I feel ya brother...Power to the people.....

Bushido ... You seem to have *no* clue what you are talking about!
I have some skills in programming using various languages and i wouldn\'t be able to implement a working cartography-skill with rules, gui and so on into the game.

Think about the program you mentioned! Why do they want money for it if it was soooo fast and easy to programm?

If you think it\'s so easy: Go, code something and try to contibute it! Yeah.

I never said it would be easy , But you people seem to want us to belive it is next to impossible . And even i know it is not, why you guys want to be resistant to the idea Is beyond me , and no one is sugesting it happen tonight , Im suggesting get on it so it will happen sooner than later

Bushido ... erm.. It really isn\'t so easy.
The point is to include such a software *into* the game and not developing something external! I think it\'s much much harder to include the skill into planeshift using crystalspace than just starting a simple 2d-map-editor from scratch.
And: Think about the rules for the skill... There need to be differences between \"skill1-maps\" and \"exprienced-map-drawer\"-thingys! That all has to be planed and implemented

By the way: The programs you mentioned are not free. Can you imagine why?

Greetings.

I did not mean for the dev to buy them I was just illistrating that it isnt that hard to make a mapping proghram If yo have some prghraming skill AT ALL . Im guessing it is coming down to time to investto do it ...
Hell Eq even added the map after legacy of Yakesha and befor that from launch they had a working compass for the game.. you are making it to be like parting the red sea Come on ,compared to the rest of PS it isnt as hard as the rest of it..
