Okay how hard can it be right?
« on: February 10, 2008, 11:15:43 am »

OKay despite the topic below which was mine at the time of me screaming and crying whilst kicking my arms and legs everywhere i seemed to have successfully installed the game.  :sweatdrop:
But after this i faced a another tiny problem, as tiny as Pavarotti's  mother.
Whenever i seemed to click inside the game window, the game would minimize, maximize then go black screen, then cut off a shot part at the bottem..... whilst keep minimizing....


Annoying i know so i ran the ./pssetup and for some reason god damn FULL SCREEN MODE wasnt enabled.... i was like oh... okay... so i enabled it and now the window seemed to be more stable than me having drunk 10 large bottles of WKD...

But i was faced with another problem 5 - 10 minutes into the tutorial.

I Was happily playing through some boring same old movement commands and typical click this for inventory tutorial.. but not long after that my computer completely powered down and just switched off all together.... i was like GGAHHHH NOOO this means that by some stupid reason if i rejoined with that character the tutorial would be screwed and that the quest and dialog would be muffled in time because any other times this has happened with any other game (( i think it happened ONCE )) i joined back and i was stuck in a plot hole... talking to any NPC or anything would help me excell through the god dame TUTORIAL!


Now im not complaining about the tutorial but the fact that i deleted that character.. made another with the same events and all (( MUSICIAN.. :D )) to find the same thing happening again..

The second time this has happened!

I Screamed in anger at which time i had spent a good 12 hours trying to get this game to work... from 1pm GMT to 1am GMT!

Honestly thats how dedicated i am to gaming!! :D   \\o//

But i bite my tounge and deleted and made a 3rd character.. Same name.. Dwindal Savagi (( Look Me Up )) :D  :thumbup:

Only to find about 20 mins in that it happened a third time. at which time it was half 1 in the morning and i just gave up. left my computer off, and went to bed.


Now its O/S (( i think thats what it is )) Is Ubuntu.

Thats all i can remember about my bros computer. =[


Okay so anyone got any idea on how to fix this?#


I Havn't tried it this morning  through fear of crashing again and primarily because its my brothers room, my brothers computer and he has locked the door, he got in at 6:30am...


Still try think up some problems and help me out..


When it shuts off the screen goes black (( no error messages )) the computer turns off...


Just instantly.

I Have no idea to what it is.

Please Help.

Thankyou

 Actually, that's kinda what happened to me, exept it was a similar but different problem.....

         I had just downloaded the game, and I was SO psyched to start playing.But, in the tutorial while trading with Neave Besetun, my screen started flickering, and crashed.I found that if you turn off the volume, it flickers much more slowly, but the effect is still the same.I have no idea what to do, and I can't even actually PLAY the game.I almost cried in frustration actually.I think I have found a new bug, which will probably need a patch to fix.Please (and I mean PLEASE) help me.

I cannot see a linux specific issue here. It seems to me like you have issues with the tutorial map (but your red font causes a lot of eye cancer on my side, so my apologizes if I didn't see the issue properly)

So you are stuck in the tutorial...did you look at the walkthrough or contact a game master to help you out?
If there is really a linux specific issue, please narrow it down and please don't use red, bold font...it makes reading a lot easier :)
