  1. rayla bjed us in trassian

    It's very unfortunate that our names are so similar, as I do NOT approve or condone bagjumping in any way. Please do not confuse me with this rayla person, as has happened a few times now.
  2. Summoning 100 \o/

    That's a fantastic achievement! Congratulations! (hugs)
  3. Draia Astrology Guide

    If you know what your sign is, just check that number. If you don't know your sign, maybe this will help... my crystal ball is never wrong. Mother Nature hates you. I mean, really hates you. While everyone around you is getting shiny stones, you will be crying into your white fabric wondering why you never get any. Take comfort knowing that Mother Nature doesn't get any either. Mother Nature gives you so many flying lessons, it's a wonder that you don't walk a few inches above the ground. At least you earn enough frequent flyer points for a free trip to Irilion every month. You will need the free trips to organise your wedding. Members of the opposite sex pursue you throughout Draia and there is no escape... unless you can find a deserted island in the middle of nowhere, in which case you will probably still not be safe. Just remember to always use protection - leather armour is cheap. You are the repository of all knowledge across both continents. Keep up your strength or your brain may explode from the pressure. People under this sign are the fluffy rabbits of EL... cute and cuddly on the surface but evil and dangerous underneath. If you come across a 5, run! Everyone knows you swing your pickaxe both ways, so why bother hiding it? Not that there's anything wrong with that. Harvesting both flowers and ores keeps you interested. If this were a different reality, your name would be Rincewind. Do everyone a favour and stay away from Magic Schools! You may think you're ebul, but deep down you're just a cute widdle bunny wabbit. It is difficult to devise evil plans to rule the world when you're cute, furry and cuddly with a pink twitchy nose and floppy ears. Let's face it... if you get pwned by sprites then perhaps you shouldn't try taking on that ogre just yet. You may think you're super, but Mortos cleans his toenails with stronger people than you. Your fashion sense hails you as the catwalk king/queen. You're too sexy for EL. Mother Nature favours you and blesses you with many shiny stones. Remember to thank her for each and every one, or your astrology sign may turn into a 1! You have a free season pass to the underworld and your own parking space. Vos mos reverto. Sceptic: Meh, you won't believe anything I put here anyway...
  4. Sorry Artemis, but I don't agree. I think that a reset is the only way we should be able to remove perks. It makes people think more carefully about the perks they take, and adds more strategy to the game. I think a perk removal stone is too much of an easy option. Most of the suggestions I see in here are to make the game easier, but there's no challenge in easy!
  5. Blue Screen of Death.

    We also reduced the hardware acceleration for your sound driver.

    LadyBea already said in her post that the problem started before she tried updating the drivers, and the problem still persists after rolling them back.

  7. Game crash upon entry.

    You really see nothing strange in the error log? Ok... you have several problems there: Your shortcut is borked. If you installed to the default directory, the shortcut should point to "C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands\el.exe" including the quotes. EL possibly cannot find your EL.INI - follow Ent's initial instructions. You either haven't downloaded the sound file, or you have extracted it to the wrong folder. Alternatively, you can just turn off sound effects in your EL.INI. I would repeat the instructions here, but I don't have a lot of time right now and a forum search will get you the info. I don't see any errors relating to graphics, so no. Good luck.
  8. EL ver 1.50 bug

    I'm happy that it worked. See you in-game.
  9. EL ver 1.50 bug

    I have seen this issue with someone else. Even with the sound turned off in EL.INI, you will get this error if you have a sound_config.xml from a previous version of EL. This file should be in "C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands\Sound". Try downloading el_sound_150.zip from the game download page (if you haven't already) and extract it to your "C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands" folder with the "preserve folders" option turned on. If you have two "Sound" folders (ie, "C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands\Sound\Sound"), it means you have extracted the files to the wrong place and you're still using the old version. But... that particular sound issue shouldn't freeze your client. The freezing seems to be related to your graphics card and/or settings. Double-check that you have the latest drivers for your card and the latest version of DirectX. Also make sure that you only have one driver installed for your card - you can check this in My Computer (right-click) / Properties / Hardware / Device Manager. If you have more than one "Display adapter" listed, delete them all, reboot, and then reinstall the latest graphics driver for your card. Good luck.
  10. Demonstration

    I just want to point out that this is not an LLL event and wasn't advertised as such. Furzwei only mentioned the guild as a way to contact him.
  11. Demonstration

    Whether it accomplishes anything or not... if people have fun doing it and build a sense of community with like-minded players, then what is the harm?
  12. Update 1.5.0 fixes

    This is a workaround for sound crashes in Windows XP. I don't know if it will work for other flavours of Windows, since I don't have any others to test, but it might be worth a try. I don't proclaim that this will fix everyone's problem, but in my experience it has resolved most sound issues/crashes with directx sound in many different games, particularly for people using on-board sound instead of a sound card. We tried this with Moebird and she is now killing boars just to hear them squeal like a stuck pig. Close EL - you shouldn't do this while EL is running. Select Start / Control Panel / Sounds and Audio Devices. Click on the Advanced button which is near the bottom of the window in the Speaker settings section. Click on the Performance tab. The top sliding control is labelled Hardware acceleration. When you drag the slider, the text underneath it changes. Drag it to the second position, which changes the text to "Basic acceleration:..." Click on OK to save your changes. Click on OK again in the Sounds and Audio Devices Properties window. That's it. Now you can start up EL and enable the sounds. I just hope there are enough boars to go around.
  13. New Contest! How Fatty/Skinny Are You?

    Umm... no, you're not. And you'll just have to trust me on that.
  14. Now that Astrology is implemented...

    I forgive you The idea is that bonuses will change relatively fast (hours) so that players won't have a whole week of crappy (or good) bonuses. Fair enough. I am sure you do, but most people don't. The purpose of my bringing this up is to encourage discussions to see what other people think about it. I haven't actually seen any comments directly relating to the rate of change. Where did you come up with that idea from? I was thinking of luna cycles, but after checking again I see that those cycles are not a month in length anyway. I'm just trying to figure out if we can predict when changes will occur. As you have stated elsewhere though, time will tell. Thanks for your responses.
  15. Now that Astrology is implemented...

    Forgive me if I've missed the point, but the stats seem to change far too often. It's easy enough to look at our stats a few minutes apart to see which are going up and which are going down, but it also means we constantly need to check our stats. In my opinion, having to check the stats more than once every 30 mins is a bit excessive. I would prefer to see a less noticeable curve during the game day and it could then change more drastically with the new day - similar to RL astrology predictions which are on a day-to-day/monthly basis, not a minute-to-minute basis. Of course, this is all null and void if the intention is to encourage us to keep a spreadsheet open so we can predict what our stats will be in x amount of time. I also have a question - so far, my stats seem to be moving in one direction only. So for example, my Make rare is going up, and I haven't seen it go down yet. If I understand correctly, this will continue until the new month. Am I correct?
