Sky client test 5

Recommended Posts

I did not try it out, since there is no linux binary, but only a windows one.

 

I am using sky with a cvs client and every thing is fine for me there.

Hi... Sky_03 worked fine... didn't see any Sky_04, but had a couple of small issues with Sky_05 on a laptop with Intel 945GM chipset.

 

The first crash was while zooming in on the minimap, the second was while mapwalking across Glacmor

 

The Error log says:

All working fine for me. Really like that follow cam.

Stars and clouds working. Unable to see a moon, perhaps hidden behind the clouds.

 

Using "Extended Camera" comes close to first person view.

 

Also noticed the readability of stats/numbers etc. in the HUD has increased

Same outlining as in quick access window. Great!

 

Another thing: When advancing one skill, it really shows great effects

I got red glowing hands reaching another pot level.

 

 

My System: AMD XP 3000+, 1 GB RAM, GeForce 6600GT 256 RAM

 

Keep up the good work.

same minor bugs as in last version:

 

1. show sky = off and first person view, when you look in the sky so that you can't see the horizon anymore it turns black

 

2. the mouse speed in first person + grab mode is erratic

I'm using th data files from sky_client and the latest cvs. I'm using a linux machine.

 

I have this warnings when starting the client:

 

languages/en/strings/channels.xml:20: parser error : xmlParseEntityRef: no name
  <channel number="6" name="Invasions">Chat about Monster Invasions & Leonard</
                                                                     ^

My top tabs say:

 

Options|History|All|Server|Local|GMs

 

If I press Options I get the channel list only with:

 

Newbie

Market

EL Gen Chat

Roleplay

Contests

 

P.S: I think I did everything right. If you think this is not an issue, or that I did something wrong, please igone this message.

OMG, i miss the sky 4, have i to install client 4 first, or can i go without 4 to 5 from 3 ?

 

It looks like entropy skipped 4. Just use 5.

 

same minor bugs as in last version:

 

1. show sky = off and first person view, when you look in the sky so that you can't see the horizon anymore it turns black

 

2. the mouse speed in first person + grab mode is erratic

 

1. That's probably normal if you have the sky off-you shouldn't be looking at the "sky" in this case.

2. Try adjusting the mouse speed parameters under the sky & cam tab. See if anything helps.

 

 

If I press Options I get the channel list only with:

 

Newbie

Market

EL Gen Chat

Roleplay

Contests

 

P.S: I think I did everything right. If you think this is not an issue, or that I did something wrong, please igone this message.

 

Ok I fixed it, thanks :D

I was fine in DP storage, but as soon as I walked outside it crashed.

 

Sorry I'm exhausted and can't remember where to find the error log.

Just to let everyone know that I replaced the & with & and it's working ok now.

Changes from sky_client_3:

 

1.) The shift key is not working to effect a fine camera rotation (similar to earlier verions of the sky client);

2.) FPS seems to be a bit worse than the previous version;

3.) I am resyncing on map changes and never had that problem with the previous version; and

4.) Previously mentioned error msg on pickaxe break, whether mine or someone else's breaks.

 

Problems still present:

 

1.) Strange, tangent graphics appearing from time to time

2.) New Selection problem--must turn new selection off for correct bag and to enter some areas and turn it back on to improve graphic performance (increase FPS)

What the hell would you expect?? The sky is part of the horizon, yes?

However, if you turn on the fog, the sky won't be black anymore.

Same strange thing as in all other sky clients, and it really troubles me.

The camera rotation is much slower when I am inside. This is while holding mouse3 or middle button.

 

I also get this as many others,

Tvinn's Pickaxe just broke... So sad..

Your Pickaxe has been destroyed

You stopped harvesting.

@Ozmondius: the fine rotation is still present and works fine for me. Maybe you should change you rotation speeds in the options?

 

@Tvinn: the camera rotation speed is the same everywhere and you can do a simple test to see it. Put your view towards the north, click on your char with middle button, drag your mouse to the border of your window and look at your new direction. Now do that on insides and outsides and you'll see that there are no differences.
