Entropy Report post Posted June 5, 2007 We are having a new patch that is supposed to fix some problems for the Windows version: http://el.beplacid.com/downloads/el_patch.exe Please download it in your EL folder and execute it. !!!!BE CAREFUL TO RUN EL_PATCH.EXE INSTEAD OF THE STOCK CLIENT (EL.EXE)!!!!! Let me know if it fixes some of the keyboard/mouse problems. It should also fix the font problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy Report post Posted June 5, 2007 Can you explain which problems you have? Hmm... It won't let me open the patch; it says OpenAL32.dll wasn't found I think you just got yourself suspended from the forum for a while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xbox360 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 When i minimize EL somtimes when i bring it back up my keyboard stops working, only on EL. To fix this i need to minimize EL, open a web browser window and type somthing to get EL working again. It is very annoying. I have a Logitech wireless keyborad and mouse.

Stone Report post Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Font is working now, mouse problem still exists here (but mouse works fine with "mouse bug" enabled, so thats ok). Edited June 5, 2007 by St0n3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enyo Report post Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) I'm running Vista and no problems yet so not going to use the patch for now. I just installed it over the older version. Everything is running smoothly so far. Edited June 5, 2007 by Enyo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted June 5, 2007 okay, there are now fixes in CVS for the keyboard and mouse click issues. until there's a new release or you use CVS from later than now, please don't report those problems (anything else not already reported is still wanted, of course) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2coolfool Report post Posted June 5, 2007 thanks for the keyboard bug fix, it was really annoying. rebuilt CVS and it's working fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ttlanhil Report post Posted June 5, 2007 confirmed fix? yay! (as a note, this was, IMO, either an SDL bug or a windows one... although the code I replaced wasn't ideal either (the workaround also made the code better)) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bkc56 Report post Posted June 5, 2007 okay, there are now fixes in CVS for the keyboard and mouse click issues. until there's a new release or you use CVS from later than now... Will there be a patch release for the latest client that would fix this issue? Many people don't have access to CVS or can't compile, and the next full client release is a LONG ways away.

ttlanhil Report post Posted June 5, 2007 I can't speak for ent, but I imagine there'll be another patch release soon (hopefully we can get all serious bugs fixed quickly, so everyone can play until the next big update. but in some cases I doubt it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2coolfool Report post Posted June 5, 2007 confirmed fix? yay! (as a note, this was, IMO, either an SDL bug or a windows one... although the code I replaced wasn't ideal either (the workaround also made the code better)) I'm guessing it was a bug with SDL, since i'm running on linux atm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sithicus Report post Posted June 5, 2007 Was it a feature of the new version that older hardware is no longer capable of running 1.4 even if 1.3.3 could be run or should every graphic card that ran 1.3.3 be able to handle 1.4? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted June 5, 2007 There is no such feature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
