Linux Specific Issues / Re: Loking status windows
« on: September 11, 2008, 12:10:03 pm »
I'm sorry, I forgot to say that my OS is Linux (Ubuntu). Shouldn't it be cause during setup i set "777" permission to my current user, to start it from the application bar, without opening the terminal?

Later I'll try to control that file you said...

Linux Specific Issues / Loking status windows
« on: September 11, 2008, 09:48:27 am »
I'm going to explain this "problem". I've tried to search something about it, but I wasn't able to find anything interesting, so I'm going to post my question directly ^_^

This is the problem: when I open PlaneShift I always have to set the position of all the windows: status, chat and the others. Now, my question is: Is this only a my problem? (I hope not) Can I set windows' position at start for example using an xml file? Which file? Or a way to "lock" the cells?

Setting every time the cells' position is quite an inconvenience. ^_^

Thanks for helping.

General Discussion / About in game "law"
« on: September 10, 2008, 03:02:55 pm »
Maybe this argument has already been discussed in the community, but I wasn't able to find it, so anyway I decided to open this post, also to tell my opinion.

I noticed there is some sort of "law" in the game, but I wasn't able to find it written somewhere.

With "law" I don't intend the game rules, but a real roleplay law, such as "do not steal anything to anyone", or "do not kill anyone".

Then, I thought: if it DID exist some sort of law, IC players could be "good" or "evil" with a stronger sense and characterization, isn't that right?

And now we could discuss, for example, "how an outlaw could be punished?", for example with jail or death, but not by GMs, but some "good" IC players that could be "guards".

I'm thinking about a fully roleplay vision, obviously. I DO know that there are some limitation, and maybe, after discussing it we could post this proposal in the "wish list", if the community likes it.

This is just an idea. Feel free to express any opinion.

Danthes, simply a n00b ^_^

yes there is a max but i am almost 98% sure telling that on the forum would be a spoiler ;)

No problem, it was just to know if there WAS a limit or not.

Again thanks for helping. Surely tomorrow morning I'm going to post my presentation ^_^

I've registered my account this morning, without problems.

Try to have written the email address correctly, and if you have received the mail in the "ignored" folder (like me, for example).

I'm going to make just the last 2 questions, before presenting my 2 PGs.

First one: Is it convenient to have a second PG "miner and crafter" in the same account? Isn't there any system to transfer equip or items from a char to another?

And now, the second question: I've created a char using "quick creation", and selecting a preferred "job", which should have given to him same skills. But those skills don't compare in the list. Is that a "normal" problem, or a personal problem?

[Just the last question: which is the highest level I can reach with skills and stats? Is there a "max", or it's "unlimited?]

Again, thanks for helping, I'm almost ready to introduce my character ^^

So isn't there any "mass war", and cannot I kill anyone without "permission"? Understood. That's quite a limitation, in my point of view, but surely decreases flame episodes. Now I'm curious to try it ^_^

PK-ing = Player Killing

It's when something kills you staying hide somewhere, without letting you defend. Not a "nice" art, but surely enjoyable in MMORPG ^_^

I've found discordant rules about pkapping. Somewere they said that there's only PvP (in which player MUST accept the combat), and in other pages that pkapping is allowed. Probably it's because of different version implementation.

So, my question is: which are the current rules about pkapping? Is it implemented? Does it break any rule? Isn't any limitation (maybe concerning PG level)?

I do know. In general I prefer no-armor or light-armor classes, cause (I'm thinking about DnD) they are faster and more able to dodge attacks, rather than take less damage. I had managed to train expecially agility, rather than strenght and endurance, but I'll have to try, before make my final decision ^_^

Thanks for helping, I found almost all the info I needed.

I've managed to create as a first character an Enkidukai, and then specialize it in hand-to-hand combat and thieving. Do you think it could be a good choice to begin playing planeshift?

Yes, a warm welcome to all of you guys, I hope you enjoy Planeshift :)

In response to the idea of an Italian guild, the way I see it is there isn't a reason to create Guilds based on real world associations, as they should be created for IC (in character) reasons.

As far as an Italian community thing goes, I don't think there is one, but there is nothing stopping you from starting something similar to the German planeshift community, they have their own forums, I believe.

The idea of an "italian community" comes from other MMORPG, in my case. I don't really need Italian friends to play, just "friends" thinking about the game in my same way ^_^.

Learning about all game features from the site, perhaps, is quite difficult, I'm not able to make a satisfating idea of the game! ^_^ So, I think I have understood that after choosing a race you can take a "specialization" in one or more "careers", like "wizard" or "fighter", is that right? I think that specialization is a "DAOC" style, isn't it?

At this point the qestion begins "which are the peculiarities of the "specialization?" I did search in the site (not in the forum, I'm sorry, but I'm still lurking in the site! XD). Is the magic powerful? Isn't there a "thief class"?

And now the last question (hehe): I know that the game is in a "roleplay style". May I have more than one pg or account? That's not because a want to use more than one client at time (in L2 we call it dualbox), but because i would like to "try" more than one specialization, to choose better the one I fit ^_^

Again, thank for helping. I'm using the serverdown time to make the most possible experience about the game features, and ask to experienced players is the fastest way, of course ^_^

Welcome, enjoy your self and PlaneShift.

I must say, by the way, that already you have made a better start than most newbs
- you are reading the settings and forum
- you aren't bitching about thee server being down
- you are polite

Again welcome to our world.

I do know which the good rules for good playing are, and I do use them, there are no more secrets about me ;)

PS since i'm still reading the top page instruction (like history and races), I've not understood just one thing: is the game "role playing style" (I.e. i have to to talk to other PGs like I was really my character), or is it a "free style" game?

Again, thank for your help ^_^

Thanks for your help. Server down is not a problem, it will give me the time to study rules and better chose my character type! ^_^

See you in game, search for Danthes (I think, if the name is not already in use XD).

Welcome! Might I recommend this thread for you introduction though.

I did notice it, but I wanted to ask about the Italian community! o.o And i've not already a character, so I cannot introduce him! ^_^
