  1. Macintosh OS X port interest?

    If you need any external testing just let us know. I'm sure several of us will be willing to run any tests you would like. that goes for me as well. i have a friend who would love to get on EL and his wife as well. I have a mac mini here that i would like to get in the game. i tried compiling the bsd version but no luck.
  2. zik0 bagjumper

    well this person has been in MM cave all weekend peeking into bags and taking items. when i tried to message him he did not reply for a long time, then claimed to speak polish. so i had someone from PL talk with him, but he did not respond to them. just wanting to let everyone out there in MM land to be aware of this person when he comes near. today there was about 8 LNX members having an fe party and he walked right into the middle and sat on our bag. that is a bagjumper if i have ever seen one.
  3. google.com user?

    At the bottom of the forums I saw this: 15 guests, 20 members 1 anonymous members Carpathius, Wytter, Grum, smokey_the_bear, Google.com, jasonx_2k3, TheDesolator, kl4Uz, Lachesis, Kit, Quinticus, LadyWolf, Alderan, Fox Lupine, Tidus, Gecko_Master, Ciara, Placid, emtor, Kendai, KillerQween 'google.com' strange.. i wonder what that is all about. It was not an actual user, at least the name is not clickable in the list. some spider bot or internal thing?
  4. El T-shirts

    what manufacturer of shirt is this printed on? hanes, fruit of the looms, polo, gildan, hanes beefy-t? im only asking because they are all so different in sizes. a medium in one is very different from another. i would like to purchase one, i wear medium or large depending on company. thanks!
  5. 1.turn on/off or make perminent all categories what this does is allow things such as heightmaps, 3dobjects, 2dobjects, etc. to be viewable at all times or not. someone could click on 'turn off 3dobjects' now you can easily see heightmaps and other objects while editing and looking for bugs in the map. Also heightmaps could be turned on persistantly while working with 3dobjects, which would be great to assure allignment. 2. more adjustable views. pros: easy 360 with granular precision for ease of view. better map testing as it resembles actual client views. ability to look at more angles. cons: overhead in program
  6. Lilacs at VOTD

    its sad, no flowers in graveyard. well, at least i know how to spend my time in the days before the update. =) (its really more about the red roses, i dont use lilacs).
  7. Exp Calc for New Players

    iostr's link appears to be down? has anyone mirrored this calculator or made a new one?
  8. Complete List Of key Commands

    i just found this again in another post, ctrl-r, and came back here to post it but see you already have. funny how that 'official commands' list does not have it on there.
  9. cvs client, #storage command

    maybe you guys should report a timestamp of what cvs you are using - 'latest' could mean anything.
  10. Complete List Of key Commands

    im not in game to try it and forget what the key is, but you can setup a spell and use a hotkey to execute the last spell. are there more 'secret' hotkeys like this, and please if you know it reply to which key combo does the above.
  11. map editor

    Latest Map Editor That's the newest one out there (aside from CVS if there have been changes in the last week). I'd recommend unpacking that into your directory and use it, it has changes including objects for the update 1.0.2 so you'll have all the latest and greatest. Of course you can always wait for the official 1.0.2 release.
  12. Map Size Issue

    Seems that no matter what I do to this 64x64 map that I'm working with stays at 2.5MB in size. Any idea what could be causing this? I have removed all the extra tile (setting them to 5th row, last column). Is this a common size for maps of this area?
  13. Map Size Issue

    however it happened, it unfortunately did. but nice that it was able to get fixed and now i'm back to editing the map.
  14. National hot dog eating championship

    i watched this on ESPN, couldn't believe to what lengths they went to televise it. It was hilarious to see them characterize the different contenstants. "The Black Widow" was one of the names given to a top runner, they had her dress up in black and did this cheesy little movie on her. All in all it was pretty gross watching people eat all those hotdogs, especially the methods they used: breaking the dogs in half, shoving them in and then soaking the buns in water and sloshing them down. They would do close-up shots with the camera and it would look like vomit pouring out of their mouth as the breaded water oozed from their lips. Uh, i'm gonna be sick thinking about it!
  15. Map Size Issue

    thank you so much, that is a HUGE help!
  16. Map Size Issue

    well that would explain quite a bit! thanks, good luck!
  17. Map Size Issue

    it would be nice, but ive done enough to not want it done over again. =/ there is a 3d object in the middle of the map that i can not grab, which MAY be causing the issue. I was hoping that a developer or someone who has dealt with this before could give some info on how to get rid of such objects. any ideas on that?
  18. Map Size Issue

    just for some quick info here are the totals for the map: 472 3d objects 188 2d objects 15 lights 1 particle
  19. Map Size Issue

    im using the map editor fro the post that you made: http://el.tfm.ro/update_1.0.2-test2.tar.bz2 is this one not new enough?
  20. Map Size Issue

    that came across my mind too and i've already tried it. the basic 64x64 was very small at about 130K. what i discovered today was that there is an object in the map which i can't get a hold of at x306-y694. I have no idea what type of object it is (2d, 3d, etc), just that it exists as a red dot in the MiniMap view. I looked at the hex version of the map but I'm not certain how to find coords in there.
  21. Map Size Issue

    nothing is unused. i removed all the tiles that were not being used even. the entire section that is walkable is only about 15% of the entire map. all the ohter maps like WS have a 100x more stuff than this map. its really strange.
  22. Dennis

    bleh, yuck.. hurricanes suck.. the last ones went over our house, we got to see the eye pass through.. that part was actually pretty cool because its like having everything happen twice, but the second time around is reversed. heh. having no power for two weeks was aweful!
  23. Terrorist attacks on London

    GWB was at the G8 with his mate tony, bombs go off in london... coincidence? hhmm... the pictures of that bus were horrible and watching the body count climb was no picnic either..
  24. How did you all first found EL

    I've always loved playing MMORPG games. The very first one I played was called Yserbius on The Sierra Network in 1988. I was a beta tester there and was able to play for free for quite a few years. After a while the technology got old and boring. Then came Ultima Online, I read about it in a magazine, I think PC Gamer was the first to showcase it. This was before it's release and it promosed so much goodness that I signed up for a pre-registration account and was able to play the game the first day it went public. I played that for almost 4 years. In that time the game changed so much and became so run down and turned 180 that it was just nothing like the original and I stopped playing. I switched to Linux as my home desktop in 2001 and started looking for some open source or free project games to play. I tried a lot of them, but they were all pretty shabby. A few years later I discovered EL, but couldn't get it working properly and put it to the side. About a month or so ago I was searching the ebuilds in Gentoo and saw that EL had reached 1.0 status so I decided now is the time to give it a try. Even though it is still marked unstable in the portage tree it was WELL worth the install. Now I'm part of a great guild and love playing the game.
  25. A change of EL ini format?

    I'm used to seeing comments begin with the hash rather than vise-versa. I would like to see this change implemented.
