bkc56 Report post Posted May 27, 2008 can't seem to get the minimap onscreen at all... i'm told it's alt+m, but that just writes an 'm' in the chat lineIf you haven't, try LEFT-Alt-M. No, I have no idea why the right-alt-m doesn't work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kalix Report post Posted May 28, 2008 OK love the mini map but it seems that the grues are hungry for me. I constently lagg out and when i dont lagg out my fps is suer low. It stays below 10 most of the time now. On the old client it was much better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schmurk Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Do you have a lower fps even without the extended camera mode? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kalix Report post Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) My fps is lower with al the sky cam stuff off and with the eye cand off. Poor man is on. It is just out side tho because if i go inside it goes up by 20 or so. It was bettwr on the old client. Edited May 28, 2008 by time4u2die Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayna Report post Posted May 28, 2008 I'm not having any challenges with the client except the mini map. I hope there will be a choice of the old one or this new round thing. I dont care for the new one. For my use it is obsolete, as i use it to walk across a map, not just one tiny section of it. This just means more clicking to get someplace imho. And i use the little one to help because of carple tunnel.... Zoom out does not give a full view, and having the map turn when i turn, makes me dizzy. It also seems to be slower? Im not sure how to explain that really. So please do we have a choice? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SirAlland Report post Posted May 28, 2008 So far so good; the only thing I notice is that my reflections don't work in this client and they worked with the latest sky client. Reflections off = nice sky, Reflections on = gray sky Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reflections off = nice sky, Reflections on = gray sky Do you have the framebuffer enabled in the advanced video options tab? If not, can you enable it? If not, look in the video tab for the water shader quality and put it to 0 if it's not already set to this value. If this fixes your problem, then the bug is known and will be fixed in the next release. In the other case, please post the options you are using and your system specs.

Kalix Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Went to el.ini messed with some stuff... got my fps up to specs but almsot all the stuff is off. But at least its working again for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mugwump Report post Posted May 28, 2008 It works!! Noting my below specs I can't play with these goodies on at all, but if I go find a small and quiet map I can turn on all the features and experience everything my system handles. There's no way to test it further than that with this machine but it doesn't crash or display strange images. My real big thank you is for the switchability of all these features! If it was built into the client permanently, I would have to give EL up. Sooo glad you can still provide support for lower-end machines that way! Thanks to all you devs, Radu, and Roja for all the hard work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eowi Report post Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) What about all those other reports of Intel 945GM crashing and the solution to turn off the moon in the Sky&Cam tab in options. Same applies to Intel 915GM too. Thank you very much Ago, I will try that, and yes...I missed it because I was looking for something posted by Radu/Entrophy. And fully 90% or more people had nothing but glowing reviews about this client, which was heartbreaking to me. I wanna see the pretties too! Again, my thanks. Edit: And it works, I surely wish I'd seen the fix before I got bald spots. Thanks again. Edited May 28, 2008 by Eowi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rayna Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Oh yes i agree, no moving reflections of the water by the boats etc and cannot clicking to turn to 1 has no effect. Eowi: I read through the thread too, and did see someone else had similar challenge, but i didnt see a reply for it? Perhaps the answer for most of the crashes and any image flaws like in your picture is the same. Hopefully turning the moon off will work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After experiencing similar problems with 1.7.0 RC (as noted in my previous post in this thread) I could no longer play the game and decided to reinstalled the 1.6.0 Released Client again. After reading the above suggestion I installed 1.7.0 again and ran it with no issues!. My problem was gone...I did not have to turn off any 'sky related options' and no crashing! The only issue I have now is when my mouse cursor is not moving it disappears from the screen. It will reappear when I move the mouse around. The only difference between now and my first post in this thread was that I installed 1.7.0 RC over the el_sky03 RC. I'm wondering by reinstalling 1.6.0 over my sky_03 client my have done something to make the 1.7.0 RC work for me!? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
