Update test, part deux

Recommended Posts

Ok, please follow the instructions:

Make a copy of your current EL folder.

Download www.eternal-lands.com/el_update_101.exe

Install the update in the new folder where you copied the old el folder.

try and see if it works.

 

P.S. 1 If you did try the previous update, pelase delete that folder, and follow the instructions in this thread.

P.S. 2 This update will have some glitches because the main server is not updated. Those glitches are not a problem, I am interested if the gane works without crashing and such.

P.S. 3 You can try to test it on the test server, if you wish, by editing el.ini and changing the port to 2001. If you do that and find glitches, let us know here.

 

If there are any problems, plese specify what OS you are using, and what video card.

On the primary server, i get 25213/125 health points, and the health bar is longer then the screen. :)

I must start working, so i didn't have time to check it in a fight.

 

 

Edited: oh, there are some other glitches, but it run without crashing the little time i had to try it. (on XP)

Windows 2000 SP4, nvidia geforce4 ti4600.

 

I've found an invisible sword bug on the test server. It can be reproduced two different ways.

 

1. Equip a sword and then leather gloves. The sword will appear and then disappear and the gloves will appear. Unequip the gloves. The gloves will disappear, but the sword will not reappear.

 

2. Equip leather gloves and then a sword. They both appear, but when you unequip the gloves, the sword disappears and the gloves remain.

 

Other players cannot see the sword. This could be dangerous on PK maps.

It's working for me on Windows 2000 and Radeon 9200, but sometimes i have a huge health bar and do ~500 damage.

 

It's working on the test server too.

This works for me on Win98. The previous test update crashed on startup.

Good it seems that the command line fixes are working on win 98 too.

Can you try running it with any command line var? For example: elc.exe -fs 1

If it starts with full screen then it's working.

Tried the command line var and it worked. :)

Well, with the update i can't get off IP and i have a huge health bar.

Health Bar - now using 16 bits instead of 8 bits, so following info gets added into health bar, causing it to perhaps be 2^8 hp too high on the main server. Other thing keeping you stuck on IP is that objects have been changed... again, use the test server. :)

Other known issues:

 

Map editor isn't working, should be recompiled (it tries to use UTF8Toisolat1)

 

knowledge.lst is not in ./languages/en/

 

It has an old (outdated) el.ini from 1.0.0

 

It doesn't have the mapedit.ini

 

It's missing some of the tiles > 231

If you copy the 'startmap' from the maps folder in your backup and put it in the maps folder of your current EL directory, you'll be back to old IP and the banner on the ship should work on the regular server.

Anyway, it will vanish when server will be restarted.

there's a problem with the snow, feet, shadow:

it's really weird, especially rabbits look really smeged up

Effectively, your feet are sunk into the snow, but the shadows look that way, because they are applied after characters are rendered.
