Items Disapearing from Inventory

[Pandar]

When I click on an item from my inventory screen, it disapears from my inventory. I discover this after losing my glyph sack with all of the glyphs in it.

[Zweitholou]

That happened to me too.

It is good to mention bugs like this in the bugtracker. Please in there describe exactly what you did. Since I spent some time on Laanx messing around with my inventory (including sacks) and having no problems, I wondered if it might be somethings else.
- did you both have problems with glyph sacks, or did zweitholou loose something else?
- was the server laggy at the time? It might be that it considered that you released it somewhere
- which brings me to something that might have been new in this release: you drop something where you point, which can be a bit away from your character. DId you look around you to see if it was dropped somewhere?

I saw the bug tracker, but wasn't certain how to proceed.

1) I lost glyph sacks, a pickaxe, and battle axe. However, all were restored when I logged backin 8 hours later.
2) Server did not appear to be laggy. Also, ther was no note that I had dopped them.

I added comments to the current thread in bug tracker. Thank you Lanarel for the link.

[Lanarel]

THank you for reporting this in the bug tracker as well. Feel free to add more bugs that you found (or think you did).
For all others, it seems to have been an inventory display update delay, which I guess is due to lag (the server is behaving strangely, appearing only laggy from the outside).

some mates have reporting to me that replacing the old "psclient.cfg" solved the problem. if anyone wants to give it a try
http://dudu.110mb.com/psclient.cfg

[ThomPhoenix]

edit:

Ah, I misread. It's odd that the old one fixes the issue. I'll look at it.

[Durwyn]

You copied over your old psclient.cfg?
I thought it was clearly stated that that could give problems
^{Even though I didn't know it would cause issues like these, but eh.}

So: Everyone who's having issues, did you copy over your old settings? If so, remove.

i said the opposite   replacing the old one over the current helped them

[ThomPhoenix]

Okay, psclient.cfg isn't used anymore in SB, but I can't locate the file which replaced it. Perhaps the settings from psclient.cfg aren't needed anymore, or they are needed and it should've been included.

Anyone else having the "items disappearing" issues, try copying over the psclient.cfg from Durwyn and look what happens. Before copying over the file, just check your inventory with you normal client, to exclude server problems.

NO it is that planeshift.cfg is not sent with the package psclient.cfg is still used. and planeshift.cfg has been moved to your userdirectory with the other ps files.

[Lanarel]

Can someone who has this problem and gets it solved by using the old psclient.cfg check what the difference between new and old files are?

[ThomPhoenix]

Psclient.cfg is in the PS dir and not the user dirs? Why that difference? Anynow, now I know what I did wrong
^{I looked in the wrong place...}

edit:
I don't have the crash, but made a diff anyway:

What the new psclient has, and the old one not:

;System.PlugIns.iGraphics3D = crystalspace.graphics3d.software

;Sound renderer
System.PlugIns.iSndSysRenderer = crystalspace.sndsys.renderer.software

What the old psclient has, and the new one not:


; This prevents some clients from crashing
Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_EXT_texture_rectangle = false
Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_ARB_texture_rectangle = false
Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_NV_texture_rectangle = false
PlaneShift.Client.Loading.PreloadModels = true
System.PlugIns.iSndSysRenderer = crystalspace.sndsys.renderer.software

That makes sense then Cannot understand what that has to do with items disappearing though.

Ok, so it doesnt make any sense. But interesting

[saladasalad]

I'm pretty certain that psclient.cfg has nothing to do with this problem, it occurs when you try to overload your inventory.


To anyone who is experiencing this bug; it can be solved by selling a few things to an npc. The items are still there and they do appear in the trade window. Sell a few items and your inv. will instantly reappear.
