I have so many bugs, my whole game might be a bug
« on: November 06, 2005, 05:02:17 pm »
The starting place for Xachas (Hydlaa) -for me anyway- is muted. I don\'t know why  it is, but it might be normal to have it muted. And my game\'s music is on. I hear it in the login menu and the character picking menu. Starting from the \'loading world\' menu, it all goes off. Also, the menu at the upper left corner disappeared for me, the one with a \'quit\', an \'options\', etc. I was on IRC, I asked Drey what to do, and he guided me on a few \'Planeshift.cfg\' edits. After I did these edits, the names of all NPCs and people disappeared. To help you help me with my situation, here are the edits I made:
Well, I did it a while ago, so I don\'t remember them exactly.... It was something I changed to false...or true or something, followed by 0 and 3 on next 2 lines, which I changed to 0 and 0. I\'ll list the few lines that fit this description....?(
Oh... now I realized, after I resized my \'Control Window\' (so that\'s what it\'s called....) ingame, it changed all the values. So, nothing to show you until further notice.  :baby:
(Edit after Karyuu\'s post) The updating thing doesn\'t help. I can update all I want. My game is \'Buggy\'. Thank you anyway....

You may, at your discretion, torture my character, wipe my character, or publicly mock my character as necessary. I\'m prepared. I have lots  of duct tape. :D

You can always run the updater to restore the files you edited back to their original form, if your current state is worse than the first buggy state.

Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

...It seems not many people care or notice this thread. I\'m going to just uninstall ( 8o ) my game and get the new 0.3.012 now that it is out.... I haven\'t actually done much in my game anyway.... so it shouldn\'t matter.
( 8o )

Running the updater will give you the same files as installing from the new 0.3.012 package.

Thank you Dave, and I knew that, but I think I changed some settings on my client. And it might be messed up or something. I have a new client now. And please don\'t trouble yourself with this topic anymore.
