As of 0.0.2-alpha-r4, on my Debian Linux notebook it crashes immediately after the username/pass/server screen. I enter the username and password and click Connect and it tries to draw the main window but before it draws any content at all it 'freezes' (doesn't actually crash out with any error, it freezes up). Seems no elch_error.log is created. BTW for anyone interested, to compile on Linux, in the src/ dir you do: xbuild elch.sln and the output binary is in src/elch/bin/debug/ My own binaries still have this same issue though, but I compiled r3 and it worked.

So you got this: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R153383&SystemID=INSPIRONI6400/E1505&servicetag=&os=WLH&osl=en&deviceid=10534&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=3&catid=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=0&libid=6&typeid=-1&dateid=-1&formatid=-1&source=-1&fileid=204594 driver from dell's site? http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/543/bugyo.jpg/ this kinda looks awesome xD

You're sure you have the latest drivers for your card from nvidia's website? (not just from Windows Update)

Does your middle-click (mouse wheel button) work in other programs? ;p Are you running any kind of control program for your Logitech mouse? (would probably have an icon in the taskbar (down by the clock)). If so, try closing that.

After uninstalling, be sure to go and manually check that the EL data folder (on windows, usually C:\Program Files\Eternal Lands) is completely gone, and if it's not, manually delete it yourself. To be extra cautious you could also backup your My Documents\Eternal Lands folder and then delete it too. It will mean setting up the client options to your liking from scratch, but worth it to be sure.

You said the welcome message was quickly followed by a connection close, so it could still be at the ISP (i've seen exactly that before with ISP level blocking). Learner runs a (paid, but not expensive) proxy service that listens on a different port, but your ISP may simply unblock it at your request, there could even be a control panel on their website you can use to turn off a firewall service they provide, without even having to call.

Does your ISP block outgoing connections on TCP port 2000? Call them and ask if you're unsure.

all my fellow pr0 instance farmers; from now on we don't sell oranges for less than 100kgc kk.

I lack in-depth knowledge of the 80-100 instance so I can't give exact numbers, perhaps someone else can... it's about knowing when you've reached the upper dodge limit for stuff in there. Looking at el-wiki.net you go up against Nasps and possibly Yeti. Regarding the Nasps, inst will be useless cause you won't be dodging them (other than crit-dodge and Eva perk dodges) anyway, and for the Yeti unless you've been on a def training setup for ages and have like 120+ def and <60 attack (so u can still do the instance) inst will be basically useless regarding them too. But for other stuff in there (the Labagiu for eg., which according to the wiki has 110 attack) inst will probably impact your dodge ability for them significantly, and would be worth favoring over vit. (Would be good if someone can update the wiki with Chitros and Japita attack levels ;p) Like I said, without doing the instance myself and knowing the attack level of everything and being able to make educated guesses on the creature attribs, I can't give specific answers.

Maybe it could be made so a moderator in a time zone fairly opposite of Radu's can start it? MAXI FTW.

OP asked me to comment so... Assuming you don't want to goto a low-Might (which means low EMU) def training build (like what Elgoran mentioned), which has negative effects on many other parts of gameplay, basically just listen to evilmangopie. Full phys and coord, as much vit and inst as u can get. Eva perk definitely. Other perk considerations: Take NMT perk so u can wear Mirror cape. Personally I recommend doing this, crit-dodge+Eva perk+Mirror perk gives u a significant chance to not be hit before the combat system even gets to your defense and reaction. Alternatively you could take mirror perk and wear NMT, which means no cape breakages ever, but I don't overly recommend having Mirror perk for a/d training, though it's not so bad. TINF perk. Certainly not required, in fact u could take ICD and still be a (cautious) tank, but still TINF is nice. edit: and yeah, tosh's posted builds 1 and 3 aren't setups i'd recommend.

first lets fix the Ti chain stats

Yes but for the sake of testing/troubleshooting, if you try to make a new character, does it work?

by 'slang' do u mean abbreviated?

Yea, but your from New Zealand or something. WHERE'S MY KNIFE

drunk shouldn't = banned, i've managed to not attempt to scam during any of my numerous drunken logins

heh I edited my last post while you were posting, looks to be related I will, in the near future (sorry can't right now as I'm at a client's place, and even then I'm between houses at temporary accomodation atm, and don't have any of my computers readily available barring my notebook running Debian), provide some instructions for Ubuntu/Debian and I will probably put a package in Arch's AUR (making it very easy for Arch users to run it).

Just tried running it on my client's Windows 7 machine. As with on Linux, it logs into the test server fine but crashes when trying to log into the main server. Could it be related to the length of the welcome message? It (seems) to crash during receiving the welcome message, which on the test server is quite a short message (just "Test server") but is much longer when logging into the main server. EDIT: The part of the welcome message I do get is: "Hi, and welcome to Eternal Lands! If you're new to the game and" Which happens to be, including a space after 'and', exactly 64 characters long.

It's an a/d average. IIRC it'll be att+def=<119 to be able to enter.

Odie owning up the Mac client compiling, gj

that's why way back when we always used the term "shit-tagged", not "brod-tagged" :>

he tell us all come battle hall then he AFK for ages. ban from bots, serp, etc. plz

What do you mean, Raz?

I agree too. There's people intentionally stopping a/d training just short of 120 a/d. You hit 120 a/d and PvE wise you are thrown in the same basket as a 170 a/d every attrib capped ub3r pr0. At 136/139 a/d every pro instance i do i take with me 12coord, 12att, 10reas, 12def, 10wild potions just so i can barely cut the mustard. A 120-140 a/d instance would be great. An off-my-dome possible layout: Wave 1: 35 LOrc -or- 50 ACW Wave 2: 20 Giants -or- 45 Nasp Wave 3: 3 RD's -or- 1 BD Wave 4: Couple Jegos Wave 5: Need new monster, basically a Bula with less a/d and bit less Might (damage), maybe slightly less crit-rate. EDIT: And that ain't making it easy for a team averaging 130 a/d, i'm thinking it might be a bit too much rly. It'd still definitely need a 'tank' (someone very close to 140 a/d with good attribs). EDIT2: I should note though, people 120-135 a/d can join the 120+ 'invance'. EDIT3: changed proposed layout a little.
