Utterly disillusioned
« on: August 05, 2005, 03:35:40 am »
1: [SHIFT]/\"run\" messed up. I\'m sure after releasing [SHIFT], walk would resume, now it causes you to halt needing you to release the direction key and re-apply it.

2:\"Default Run/Default Walk\", switchable by [=] no longer works.

3:[TAB]/\"mouselook\" was switchable but now functions like [MOUSEBUTTON3]/\"mouselook\" used to.

4: No \"mousecamera\" functions work i.e. zoom in/out, [MOUSEBUTTON3]/\"mouselook\", \"mouserun\" etc.

5: Can\'t jump over water wheel shafts in sewers, I get stuck in shaft for a second or two before being released back to point of take off.

6: Rarely used to suffer from the \"darkness\" thing and if I did, it only took a couple of seconds to reach normal brightness. Decided to logoff/on just at bottom of steps by Kada-El\'s... pitch black for 5 minutes!!! Thought I\'d /spawn back to the fountain, but no more /spawn... just had to wait it out (I can just imagine trying to defend myself against hostiles in this situation). Trying 16bit doesn\'t help.

7: I like my Command bar full width across the bottom of my screen. I notice that when clicking on the Guild Info button, the text field for naming a new guild appears behind the Command bar at the location the button was clicked, and can\'t be accessed unless the command bar is closed or dragged out the way. Similar with the Petitions text field, it\'s barely noticeable behind the main Petitions window.

8: Get stuck against surfaces and have to stop and then sidestep or backoff, whereas previously you may have expected to glide along the surface (depending on approach angle).

9: \"Load all maps\" and \"Keep all maps loaded\" are not selectable in PS setup.

10: what is \"Show relight panel\" in setup? Whatever it is, it crashes setup if I mess with it.

11: \"blue_freeze.wav\" is always offered for download if you  keep trying update.

12: Can\'t use key combinations like \"sidestep\"&\"rotate\" to circle.

Ummm... I think that\'s all for now.

Oh... shortcut number keys now work. :D

I am not trying to hijack your thread, but I just want to post some bugs I have also expierenced and I want to keep the thread count down.

1. The window buttons (stats, buddy list, ect) sometimes dont appear.  I\'ve only had this happen once but I had to restart Planeshift and they appeared the 2nd time around.

2. You sometimes have to use /unstick twice in order to get unstuck because it will sometimes move you to a location that causes you to fall off a bridge or something (eg: using /unstick if you fall off the bridge in the death realm)

3. Death Realm is 100x more \"stickier\" than it was before.  I consider my self lucky if I can get through it without getting stuck.   I often get stuck 3 or 4 times before I am able to get past it.

4. Tavern in Hydlaa has a lot of graphics issues.  A lot of flickering and it also lags because of it.  I once even had windows xp had me \"end task\" on pcclient when I walked into the tavern

5. Some enemies dont attack back.  I was able to fight monsters a couple of times and they basically stood there and took it.

6. When selecting Yliam as your race.  You were not allowed to create any background info (ie: your parents and birthday) without getting a \"no race selected\" error.  You simply had to upload your character with the default settings.

Still though, despite these bugs, I think the devs did a wonderful job.  My heart and thanks goes out to them!

These features both work, you just need to turn them on manually by editing psclient.cfg.  (change the values of their lines to \"true\" )

I think this is a long awaited darkness-bug-zapper.  I can select it, so it might just be you.

Yeas, I get all of those... Wait /unstick helps when you get lodged into a slope in the death realm? Better try it.
One more bug(?) I found..

In the temple thing, not the laanx but the really big white one, when I walked into the arena (The place with stairs all around and 2 of those long-clawed monsters), the walls below the steps were black with blue lines and while they were in my vision the game would lag horribly, at about .5 fps.

Guild Knights will return. When I feel like it.

I also get the blackness for a few minutes
I also keep falling and not dying.
I also get stuck ih several places
And these are the good bugs
1 bug crashed my sgame with an address error
The darkness falters the Creator comes
The bonds are broken from the lost lambs
The healer renews His people for the war
Evil has no place to hide no more
For the righteous renewed now stand

Yep... I just figured out why it was doing that.  (bug reported)  They\'ll probably fix it soon.
