weird graphics bug in sewer, where do i send picture?
« on: January 15, 2006, 07:29:08 pm »
I\'ve gotten this same weird bug in this same area of the sewers a couple of times now, where the graphics smear and you can see blue underneath (the blue of the \'something crashed\' screen).  This time I took a screenshot of it, so does any of the dev staff want to see it or is it a known bug?  And if someone wants the pic how do i send/post it?

Thanks. :)

It\'s a known bug, where there\'s nothing to display it displays the last thing seen.. causing each pixel to \"smear\" and repeat. Known here ar ethe \"abyss\" or \"nothingness\" ..and was, and sometimes still is a problem when falling into it. XD

Although, I don\'t think I\'ve ever seen the `Blue screen of Death,\' as it\'s called, appear there before.. You can upload the image to
ImageShack or
Photobucket
And post it right here on the forums using the link it gives you. :)

I had a similar problem, I came out of the sewers and the graphics \"smeared\" until I was on the surface, then the ground, everything was black except me and the \"pit\" into the sewers. It was quite disturbing...

And then another time I was walking through the sewers and there was a light blue flash, and I was falling and right in the chat box it said \"You fell off the edge of the world and died.\" That\'s not exactly fair, methinks.

Oh i get the blue flashes all the time.  I\'m just careful not to walk in them. o_O  

I also see blue lines where I\'m assuming the tilesets meet, and some lines that actually appear to be on purpose.  I was climbing out of that same sewer and got the same graphics smear you did, but could see down into the tunnel from the top of the steps, and when it settled down (graphics quit smearing and went back to normal) I tried walking on the \'ground\' and fell down into the tunnel and died.  :(

It\'s a good thing that death realm is so pretty, i\'m sure spending enough time there.  .

My screenshot is too big to upload so i\'ll have to figure out how to make it smaller first.  The BSOD only partially appears in the background, with some large green text on it.

Ah, that\'s a label \"bug,\" not the BSOD.. it\'s actually a label of a name or guild or even an item loading, and when the Abyss is shown on the screen, it shows the label of said object.. The disappearance of the area when exiting the sewers/entering a new sector is a camera bug, also. Both I believe have been reported in the Bug Tracker, so just be patient! :)

I noticed this when I was going down the stairs to the sewers... As soon as you step onto the stairs going down, everything above-surface becomes fixed, and then gets smeared over by the sewers graphics whenever the camera moves.
