Click Walking Bug

Recommended Posts

After the update I had an issue where if my screen left from being the standard view of my character in his environment to any other view (chat mode, map, the flicker when switching from full to window mode or back) then I could no longer click to move, I had to use HOME. I uninstalled completely and re-installed. I still have that problem.

 

 

Running:

WinXP Home SP2

AMD Athlon XP 2000+ running at 1.66ghz

256MB RAM with 32 shared to my onboard Savage Video

 

 

I can provide whatever else you need to know.

 

I had NO problems before the update, and normally little bugs don't bother me that much, but this one is REALLY annoying.

 

I can be reached in a fairly expedient manner via email at goliathcobalt@gmail.com

 

otherwise, just reply here and I'll check back every so often.

 

Sincerely,

Goliath Cobalt,

Click here and extract the .dll file to the EL installation directory's base. (extract to: C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands [on windows]).

 

Then try.

Ok, did that. Didn't fix it. Any other ideas?

Nah, i'd leave it for the dev's to investigate. Have you tried updating graphics card drivers or got the latest CVS shot and compiled that?

drivers are up to date and I have no idea how to compile anything

Ok, well I think you'll have to wait for Wytter or Rogue to take a look.

 

Apologies, but there is little I can do.

 

 

NOTE: Could you try the game on a different system/computer?

I have been unable to locate a more up to date drive, though I am on the search still. I will try those. I did try on my g/f's laptop and it works on that (shudder I hate laptops).

 

I'll keep you informed.

BTW, i noticed very similar bug. Then i come to any tavern or flower shop, i am often unable to walk on black ground. For example, not long ago i tried in votd flower shop to sell some flowers - i can't step out from this green charpenter. In IP tavern, at first, i could not make any step from the door, just walk close to it. There was 2 bags in tavern - i tried to pick them and i could walk to them and list them, when clicking right on them. After that i don't remember how, managed to stand near bar and sell vegetables to NPC. No error reports (dest. unreachible and such)- i simply click on spot, where i want to go, but stay on the place, i am standing. No sit lock, also i am able to stand up/sit down.

OS - Windows XP Prof. + newest drivers+this new SDL library by Placid (btw, it doesn't help).

 

Forget to add - in some cases i see a part of construction and a part of normal house, when i walk near them. Don't know, does it matters, or not, but, maybe, in bug case, program thinks, that i am trying to step on the walls?

There isn't supposed to be black ground anywhere in the game except in one room in the magic school maze.

neither fontv or any of the particles are used for the floor. Fontv was never there, and I don't think the three particles were either.

 

But you are missing the floor.

Look like, it is so. I have no idea, where it is.... :P

In previous version i haven't got floor too (thought,

it is suposed to be so :( ), but i could walk on black places

normaly. And that is only in houses. Outside a buildings

everything is ok.

You can use ctrl+rightclick to force walking using the old system (it won't check the Z location of anything beneath it (hence it's easier to walk between trees etc.)). But you really should get that floor back.. Might be a corrupted download or similiar, but I think you should check in your error_log.txt if it's says it's missing some file ("Something nasty happened when trying to process <filename>")

There's a black floor in The Meep too

Thank you. :D Ctrl+right click works perfect.

I doubt, download is corrupted, otherwise

it was corrupted in mirror 1, where i downloaded

it from. I already reinstalled client two times, with

downloading it from server. error_log.txt, after then

i copied in textures folder font.bmp to fontv.bmp and

texture3.bmp to texture[5-7].bmp, didn't said nothing

about missing files.

Btw, I used the CTRL-Right Click and I can walk that way. So in my problem I'm thinking I might be having some problem related to the Z location maybe? I dunno to be honest.

 

I did try all of Entropy's suggestions and my drivers are as up to date as they can be, and if I go from normal view to map, or to chat, and back then I can't do the normal walk. Like I said, CTRL-Right Click works...who knows?

Just wanted to say that I'm seeing this exact behavior, but I'm running gentoo.

 

Specs are: P4 Xeon 2.8Ghz / 1G Ram

ATI FireGL X-1

 

I was running older ati-drivers and xorg, so I updated to ati-drivers-8.8.25 and xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4, then unmerged and remerged eternal-lands-1.0.1. Like goliath, I can walk with shift-Rightclick, but not with the regular left click. It's very odd, because the left button works for everything else as far as I can tell. I can left click to walk through doorways (when the icon becomes a door) or to mine, or to interact with the hud. I just can't walk with it.

 

My error_log.txt shows:

Error: Problems loading texture: ./textures/fontv.bmp

Error: Problems loading texture: ./textures/particle5.bmp

Error: Problems loading texture: ./textures/particle6.bmp

Error: Problems loading texture: ./textures/particle7.bmp

 

but I'm not sure if that happens when I first start EL, or when I try to walk. I also tried compiing the snapshot without using the ebuild and had the same problem.
