  1. good way to level magic

    I try never to walk around with full mana. I cast shield to use the mana. If I go do bag mix, I drain all mana before I go (as I will be an hour or more on the bag)
  2. Tel to loc problem

    I checked several ttr hops that I use and found one in Huda that no longer works. The closest ttr point to the Trass entrance to the Icy's island no longer works. Of course, I could walk further in and hope I don't meet some ACW. Changing the spell to solve some map fault is a quick fix. I hope the map gets fixed and the spell restored.
  3. Next version of EL

    When I run the ogl2 version, I get only one log file in .elc/log called main.log. It's contents are: This is my el.cfg file: I checked additional drivers and do not have Catalyst enabled or ever installed on this installation. The vanilla EL works fine. I hope these logs are of some use. Let me know if you need to see anything else. -- Zoot
  4. Next version of EL

    OK thanks Bluap. Got it installed now. Unfortunately, after selecting the server to use, the EL window pops up but is black and doesn't get passed this. Vanilla EL, also installed, runs OK. Could it be a conflict between the two installations? It's a recent install of Ubuntu 12.04 with all updates and without the installation of Catalyst.
  5. Next version of EL

    When attempting to install the ogl2 version of EL, I get the following error. Could anyone suggest a course of action? (running on an AMD APU C60)(the ordindary EL runs OK without Catalyst installed) Connecting to twinmoons.org.uk (twinmoons.org.uk)|212.227.118.72|:80... connected.

  6. Upcoming Joules #Day

    Thanks Quester
  7. Knowledge bar in HUD

    Sorry, Bluap, completely missed your useful signature. Thanks for posting. New client installed. I look Idle, and will do for a while. But looks good.
  8. Knowledge bar in HUD

    Sorry to bother ppl, but where is the development version of the client for Linux? Nice idea Bluap
  9. AMD APU and EL

    Does anyone run this game on a Netbook/Notebook running an AMD C50 APU (CPU and GPU on the same chip)? Like an Acer Aspire One? I don't need a great frame rate, just that it runs. If you do. Do you run Linux? Does the game work etc? Thanks in advance
  10. The Missing Alt Key

    The Unity launcher (I think that is the name of the bar on the left that pops up or is permanently visible depending on settings) is just a tap of the Super (or Windows) key. The HUD is a tap or press of the left Alt Key. (N.B. I am no expert on these matters. I may be wrong with what I think the launcher and HUD are :} ) If you look in System Settings->Keyboard Layout, the third option down is "Alt/Win Key Behaviour". The fourth option down of this (first being default) you might be able to use with a full keyboard. My laptop/netbooks don't have a full keyboard so I have no alternative for the Alt (pun intended) key atm :}
  11. Enchanced p2p Characters

    I am not particularly interested in being anything but human, but would not mind changing my appearance a little.
  12. Mini-events were introduced to stop afk harvesters and then the harvester medallion was introduced to allow afk harvesting. Hmmm I never use them. (Well, I've had four since they were introduced)
  13. Any 100+ a/d gap?

    There are certainly gaps in higher level training. Single DCW, and then the FCW to Yeti gap. I don't know after that. I am no expert in these matters, I've just come through these levels. I followed Korrode's advice and I am sorry he's gone as he certainly knew what he was talking about. Also followed two others advice, both still in game so I won't embarrass them. Personally, I have stayed on double FCW (once they arrived) for far longer than I should because Yeti hurt and getting a double is lucky. Some camp in Ida as there is a very well thought out bot there (there are two others). Also I have the gift of time: I can spend longer on FCW. Single Yeti are about as much use as chocolate teapots. I am in no rush to progress, you can't in this game. But others leave because of the difficulty of progressing, I wish they didn't.
  14. explorer daily?

    Nice idea, but I think the rewards will be such that it's not worth doing.
  15. AMD APU and EL

    OK. I did try the OpenGL2 client for a very short time before I installed Catalyst during the first install that failed. Do I have to compile it or can I just get it from the PJBroadhead ppa? (which is what I did before)(Sorry, I just installed it from the ppa and it is faster (would compiling it myself make it any faster again?). As I look out to sea from IP, I'm getting 41-2 fps (though sometimes it goes down to 34 on the same scene). Not gone any where else yet. I presume it's using my graphics settings (for the normal client) from my ~/.elc directory? Mind the sea looks a mite different And I can't see any shadows despite they being set on in options.
  16. AMD APU and EL

    OK. After much procrastination. I started looking at this problem again. I did some reading of other peoples similar problems (particularly with the Atheros AR9285 wireless chip that is in the Aspire One I have). Some suggested installing Ubuntu 11.10 to get the latest drivers (rather than 10.10 that I was using to avoid Unity). I installed XUbuntu 11.10 (a variant of Ubuntu that does not use Unity) and the latest AMD Catalyst drivers (11.12) and all works so far. This includes wired and wireless LAN and the on board Bluetooth. Some notes: 1) You MUST put "Network Boot" as the first boot device in your BIOS boot order settings. This will produce and error as the BIOS tries to boot from it, but will not stop BIOS then booting from the next device in the list. Your thunb drive with the Alternate CD can go second and the hard drive third. 2) I had to use the Alternative Installation CD rather than the normal one. I don't know why, but the latter would not get far past the initial menu. The interface is more primative and the installation is slower but that's the only difference. 3) I then installed the latest Catalyst drivers from the AMD website using their installer (link in a previous post). I did NOT install the FGLRX graphics drivers that "Additional Drivers" says are required for 3D graphics. ----------- The first install worked fine for a couple of boots and then would not boot thereafter. This might have been because of the Network Boot being out of order or editing out "quiet splash" in the Linux kernel call from Grub2. Second complete install is working fine over multiple boots and hours of EL and switching between wired and wireless LANs. I get frame rates between 10 (walking through trees in WS), to 45 inside a house. Sat on IP fast regen watching the sea and sky with shadows on and the sky updating every frame I get 22/23. I could lower these settings (they are for my GTX275) but wanted to push things a bit. I have had one crash (Don't panic type) and one client freeze, but I get the later on the GTX275 now and then. Maybe it was lag and I got impatient. So, I'm happy so far. Will let you know if anything crops up.
  17. Tank_Rabbit's Tank Building Guide

    Nice guide, thanks.
  18. Android widget: EL Time

    Sounds great Usl and Bluap. Still on a Symbian phone here, but still great idea and wish I could change
  19. AMD APU and EL

    To Korrode: 1) No, I did not enable the non-free software sources first. I've never had to do this before. Ubuntu just pops up and says they are available (just after you reboot after the Ubuntu install)(Well, it does this for NVidia drivers, this is my first Radeon "card"). 2) I did not know Xorg did not come with proprietary drivers. I will look further To nathanstenzel: As I say above, I will try the latest proprietary drivers. Thanks to both for your comments and pointers. I am hopeful Will let you know how it goes (but have limited time)
  20. Addition to the "event" counters

    Maybe it's an achievement if not an event. We could have a "My MoL Loves Me" achievement. Sorry, that was a bit off topic. On topic, I can see this suggestion being interesting some of the time.
  21. AMD APU and EL

    I bit the bullet and bought a Acer Aspire One 522 with a C60 APU. I installed Ubuntu 10.10 and had no propriety drivers option for the graphics (in System->Additional Drivers). So, I installed the latest stable XOrg (from: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates). This comes with the latest AMD/Intel/NVidia drivers, but still no System->Additional Drivers, and it didn't run EL. I downloaded the latest ATI Catalystâ„¢ Proprietary Display Driver 11.11 (from: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx). Then I uninstalled any current driver before installing the downloaded Catalyst (Using instructions from here: http://www.upubuntu.com/2011/11/how-to-install-amd-catalyst-1111.html) After a reboot the display came up with the correct resolution and no "unsupported hardware" pop up window (as before above) and EL ran fine (with 18-30 fps outside and up to 45 in a store with the EL window set to 1280x640 and default settings). I have had one complete machine freeze and so there maybe more work to do. Particularly, I found some more complete commands for removing the old driver (apparently it does not like being removed) (here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver#Problem:%20%20Need%20to%20fully%20remove%20-fglrx%20and%20reinstall%20-ati%20from%20scratch). I may even have to update the Linux kernel That freeze was while walking about in IotF. So far sat in VotD no problem. But not even done much testing outside EL to be honest. I will report back with any further info when I have time to test/change more.
  22. I run Boinc with World Community. Definitely, a good cause.
  23. Health and mana in instances

    Looks great. Never done an instance, but I would find this handy when fighting bigger mobs like clops, yeti and certainly chickens. However, I don't know what to do with your "git" and can I do it legally? -- Zoot
  24. Storage sale - All needs to go

    I'll buy all your leather and aug armour for 1.2k Maybe the enhanced wooden shields too, but don't know the price of them atm
  25. AMD APU and EL

    Just an update. I tried a friend's Acer Aspire One and the most up-to-date AMD driver (downloaded for the C50 from the AMD website) and while booting into Ubuntu this driver reports unsupported hardware in a little pop up window. Further reading, trying to find solutions and I found: http://phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?31961-Notes-on-Acer-Aspire-One-522 https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne522 So, no go. Oh well.
