What if Setup won\'t run?

It gives an error to the tune of \"can\'t create directdraw device\".

Thanks!

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game /

« on: August 29, 2003, 09:33:17 pm »

*/me does a little dance now that someone responded*

hehe...thanks for the help...

I know it probably isn\'t that high of a priority but \'perfection is in the details\'.

I\'ll wait until someone posts the mIrc channel details (and maybe some clue about what that is?) to contact them.

I\'d be happy to take a text file...edit it...and send it back as text or whatever...I\'m just trying to help where I can.

p.s. I was going to add a reply to this every day until I ran out of room talking to myself or someone responded. Thanks for responding!!

Newbie Help (Start Here) / Whether or not a reward is necessary...

« on: August 29, 2003, 09:23:46 pm »

I wanted to clear up confusion and I can only speak for myself but....

I was simply trying to provide ideas for the developers in case they decide to give out an award.

They don\'t have to do anything....it\'s up to them. I just tried to help give ideas in case they do.

Oh btw...congrats Drilixer on your forum status \"emperor\" from \"King\"...just happened to notice.

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Because noone else wants to...

« on: August 28, 2003, 11:58:16 pm »

Am I forced to respond to my own post? hehe...alright you (didn\'t) ask for it!

The quests are fun to try but are baffling because of the language problems. I\'ve already noticed inconsistencies between what is said by an NPC and what is intended (i.e. using \'\'your\'\' when \"you\'re\" is the correct choice.)

I have also noticed at least one NPC whose name changes from target window to chat window! When the NPC speaks to you the name is misspelled according to what appears in the target window.

Thanks! I wonder if anyone will respond to this one...eh...here goes nothing...

Newbie Help (Start Here) / A recognizable reward after wipe...

« on: August 28, 2003, 11:51:39 pm »

Two ideas, both in the hopes of keeping it easy for devs but still noticable for gamers.

Amulet: A simple, non-intrusive, visible to everyone over the clothes or armor amulet. Some other type of trinket whose likeness would not be used for anything else (i.e. no other amulets would exist in-game except for these recognition amulets).

Plaque: Put a plaque on the statue in town that says something along the lines of: \"This statue dedicated to the hard work and effort of those who came before.\" The names could then be listed in columns of all who existed before the wipe. Provides visibility to all who come afterward as well as equality in reward for all who came before. Could be listed alphabetically or chronologically by first-login date.

Thanks for listening.

Wish list / my weapon and item ideas...

« on: August 28, 2003, 10:55:15 pm »

I would love to see some visibly different bows. Something that would allow you to tell the difference between a short bow and a long bow easily.

Equally, different bow shapes/forms (recurve, long, curved, etc.) would be wonderful to allow the Bowyer to specialize and have a little pride in craftmanship.

I would also like to see a quiver visible on any \"ranger\" characters who choose to use a bow as a primary weapon. It doesn\'t fit to have a guy pull arrows from his fur when pincushioning an enemy. Just ruins the mystique.

Thanks!

Wish list / Adding options ingame

« on: August 19, 2003, 07:47:17 am »

I would love to see options added to the \"O Bubble\" onscreen.

The option I can think of is \"screensize\" as well as sizes for the chat window and all other windows that block the scenery!

Thanks!

General Discussion / Do your part...stroke an ego!

« on: August 13, 2003, 07:51:29 am »

I figured out what I can do to help. I don\'t code or draw and nobody responded to my offer to proofread scripts so I had to find something else.

This game is so very unique that I wanted to commend the development team on a job very well done so far! Keep up the good work and I can\'t wait to see what comes next!

If anybody else reading this wants to put your praise in writing, go for it. Maybe we can fuel some egos and some brains to keep them developing by making sure they know we appreciate the hard work!

Thanks again!

Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game / Proof Reading the conversations...

« on: August 09, 2003, 11:32:15 pm »

Hi. Would it be beneficial to have someone on board just to review the planned dialogues of npcs or anywhere text would appear ingame? Someone who could proofread and make sure the english comes out correctly?

I have seen a few typos on the site and I know a lot of games let these kind of things slip in unknowingly so I was wondering if you need/want some help with it?

Newbie Help (Start Here) /

« on: August 09, 2003, 11:14:02 pm »

thank you very much for suggesting the alternate .cfg file. I will try that as soon as I can.

Additionally, I wouldn\'t be able to use pssetup because it comes up as unable to open/operate \"direct draw\".

Any ideas?

Newbie Help (Start Here) / Couldn't change windowsize in .cfg

« on: August 06, 2003, 04:54:47 am »

So I tried to be a good newbie and read all the faqs I could get my (now furry and clawed) hands on. I read about changing the sound and the video display size, both of which are changed in psclient.cfg file through notepad.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find the \"full screen\" argument to change my screen size ingame.

Has the .cfg file been changed and, if so, could you point me to the new location to change this setting?
