Well I had problems with the upload button not working and now I can\'t even use the first alias I put in. The password and username combination don\'t work, and it says the username is already taken.

Other than that I fell through the floor once.

Time of test: 3 May, 12:00 AM EST
OS: Windows 98, First Edition
Processor: AMD Athlon 800 Mhz
RAM: 384 Mb
Video Card: Voodoo 3 3000
Video Card Memory: 16 Mb
PS Client Version: 0.1.003
Description of the bug: Title screen and menu screen are experiencing graphical glitches. No mouse appears, either, to select the different option. I have to ctl-alt-del out, because I cannot read/click on the menu. I tried to take a SS, but when I pasted it into PSP, it looked even more messed up than the actual image I was seeing.

I\'ll post one if you wish, but I don\'t believe it would be very representative of the graphical error I am getting.

[EDIT]Above error is in OpenGL mode. Safe Mode won\'t start at all.[/EDIT]

More tips for the clueless:

1) The server IP is 203.109.172.22
2) Bug reports are supposed to be EMAILED to the said address

3) If your video card doesn\'t have hardware GL acceleration, I suggest you use the \"Slow\" version.. which will in actuality be faster depending on your CPU speed.

I am soooooo looking forward to seeing you all there. Damn it, I\'m at work, I\'ll have to wait 8 or 9 hours untill I can get home, then probably another day to download. Arghhhhh life is so cruel ;( .

I hope I can install it at work and none of the filters block me ;)

Three of the things i want to see most fixed is...

1. The Exit/Join Lag
2. The loose joints in which you can move through a wall.
3. The Falling threw the floor effect which i think Ties in with 2
The Great Linksunius

Early observations
« Reply #24 on: May 03, 2002, 09:00:03 am »

Now, onto my observations:
1. Even though I had created female characters, when I log onto the server, the chars are male. Is everyone supposed to be male for the tech demo? On the creation screen, I chose female twice, but when I\'m in the world, lo and behold the char I am propelling is male.
2. There is definitely a \"falling in the abyss\" bug, which I had encountered when walking in the town fountain area.
3. Little laggy, but that is to be expected.
4. The housing structures and dimensions are very nice.
5. Still no consistency with arrow control with regards to zooming in/out. When I had walked into the anvil area, the side arrows were zooming me in and out. Very odd. Otherwise, the forward and back arrows were fine.

Wonderful work, development team. >>

there are only 3 skins available in the tech demo:  the male Stonebreaker Dwarf, the male Enkidukai, and the male Ynnwn.  I\'d say the Enkidukai looks the most female of the three :)

(i was able to download the client in 1 min 42 sec on cable so there is no problem with the server)

AH! My computer is all messed up and won\'t let me download .exe files anymore! Is there a possibility that it could be put into a .zip file?

So liteerally all i can od is stand on top of the fountain and look at a screen with 2 houses...not too much fun if i may say my thoughts...
