    Client crashes within seconds of load. Here is my error log. My character is located right outside DP storage.

    I have Vista, so I wonder if that is causing compatibility issues. :D

     

    I'm in the WS to PL cave and the first time I logged on, I could walk around the cave. The water looks beautiful. When I tried to exit to PL the client crashed. I logged back in to get a screenshot. My player is in PL and the client crashes the second the game changes from black, preventing said screenshot.

    Its a very fine line most MMORPG have to walk to get the balance right. ( between Economy and Fun ), Everyone plays games to have a break from RL and to enjoy themselves, but sometimes an Economy can push the fun to one side and the game becomes a Job .

     

    There really needs to be more varied ways of earning money. An example would be to add gambling (against a computer or real person) in taverns on some maps. Harvesting flowers for days on end or endlessly mixing can get real repetitive real quick.

    Roja, thank you for the response. I do understand how to find the file, I just don't understand where to change the settings. Do I change it in the el configuration settings folder? When I open that folder, windows opens a text document in notepad. I can manipulate the text, but do not see an option to save. Will it save automatically when I close notepad?

     

    Also I have poorman enabled and render fog off (on a 3 month old machine w/ updated video drivers), what other settings can I try to prevent the crash?

     

    Edited to add below:

     

    LOL, :P nevermind I can save the document in notepad (a little tired as I was up with a cranky toddler all night). I do still need to know what other settings to try to prevent the crash.

    It still crashes seconds after starting. My character is in DP. Poor Man is enabled on my regular character, and I didn't see any options to change in the main folder. Which folder do I find the settings to be changed.

     

    The sky and water are beautiful by the way, I just wish I could keep it running.

    Also, there was an "old error log" from the same date, should I post that one as well? Like I said in prev. post, the sky and stars, water, etc. all appear and for an unknown reason (to Windows at least) the client crashes.

  12. Posted · Edited by Lissandria · Report reply

    How do I post error log?? I can see the sky and water, but the client crashes after 10 seconds.

     

    p.s. I don't get enough time to change any settings before it crashes, is there a way to change the settings in the folder?

    the truth and the point is - average EL player needs to spend more and more time in game on tedious, repetitive tasks serving for making more and more gc in order to afford basic items required to have fun in game

     

    Amen! There needs to be more ways to gain money in the game, maybe increasing the the amount of gc's found when harvesting to the amounts in the hundreds instead of tens? There is an insane amount of items that must be bought, and it takes a ton of time to make money. I can't get my husband involved in the game because of the time needed to play.

    Lissandria, you play this game for one month. I assume you are not even a fighter. So please spare me your lectures ty :)

     

     

    No sweetness, been playing for 2 years, but unlike some people I have a RL and other things that are more important than chatting on a forum.. which I why I never bothered to register. Honestly I wish I never had now that I see the level of intelligence that lurks here.

     

    peace ;)

    unique? More like pretty weird... a fighter pet that only attacks insects? What is that a spider that hunts flys? and then you use that spider to sting a fighter? :P And I'm not talking about your lag I'm talking about the server. Entropy stated before that he doesn't want everyone to have a pet, so there wouldn't be too much server load.

     

    um, HELLO? Welcome to earth. In RL spiders kill flies and then sting people. You are a retard. Also dum-dum I never said Entropy should make the pets easier to get.

     

    :P

    Having extra monsters/animals for pets would be ridiculous. It would cause more lag, since more actors would need to be drawn.

     

     

    Not everyone has issues with lag. I certainly don't. The pets should only hunt things that they would in RL. I don't think adding some insects or unique creatures for the pets is "ridiculous" at all.

     

    I think this is a wonderful idea, I just want it to be more original than other MMORPG's.

    well, i guess that's why it is called fighter pet... if you don't want to enter PK maps there will be a different kind of pet soon, i think :)

     

    WHY :) does a "fighter pet" have to be trained on a pk map?? Everyone has to at least start their training on regular maps. I think the pets should be allowed to train on pk maps, I just don't think it's fair (to us newbies) to REQUIRE it. I think the pets should have their own unique characters to kill (which could be on every map).

     

     

     

    P.S. I call myself a Noob, but I've been playing for 2 years. The disparity of wealth on this game seems pretty reflective of the U.S. economy (i.e. the top 5% have it all). So until I'm rocking some scale armor and flashy sword, I am a NOOB. :)

    The suggestion in here wasnt that the pet could only fight on pk map, it was that they would only BENEFIT exp-wise in those places. But yeah, almost the same since you still need to level the pet in pk and would end up having same costs etc...

     

     

    If the pets could only level on pk areas, that pretty much in effect requires the owner to travel to pk areas. Who would spend 100kgc and keep the pet at it's birth level?

  24. Posted · Report reply

    I just think that the pets should have their own creatures to attack. I think that would be more fun for everyone- but especially us who don't pk *yet* ;)

     

    I would want (and try to get) a pet right away, which at my level would take a couple weeks of work. If they could only fight on pk maps it would cost much more (armor, HE's, etc).

     

    My suggestion is for pets to have their own creatures that only they could kill (to level up), and to have pet food depots (a new harvestable). :)

    To avoid ppl competing with newbies over rabbit/goblin spawns pet could lvl only on pk maps from killing normal not-summoned monsters( to avoid abusing it on private guild maps when some1 could just summon rabbits for fast kills).

     

    I don't think leveling up pets only on pk areas is a good idea. Not everyone in the game is a pk'er.

     

    Also I don't really appreciate the idea of making them super expensive, aren't there enough advantages for the old-timers?? Noobs honestly have a long, difficult road as it is (You have to really love this game to stick with it, it's very time consuming). The "exp stones" also clearly benefit the old-timers who are swimming in gc's. They should ONLY level through active participation (such as eating and fighting)

     

    I think certain maps could have animals that can only be attacked by pets.

     

    Maybe there could be "pet food depots" where you harvest pet food, so they have different food from the characters.
