I just discovered the "Windows on Top" option and disabled it. Now when I'm in console mode, I don't have any windows obstructing my view of chat. However, I do find it annoying that when I'm mixing, I get the "You successfully created 1..." messages in the console when the windows are hidden. Can we do 1 of the following: 1) Disable this feature altogether, with no option to enable it. Is is really relevant to have these messages in console? Maybe only show the failure message (You stopped, You failed, etc.). 2) Do not show these messages if the client has the "Windows on Top" option disabled 3) Check to see if the inv/manu windows are open, but hidden. If one of the windows are open, regardless of being hidden, then do not show the messages in console. If the inv/manu are both closed, then show the message in console. Not sure if #3 is possible. I think it should be, because the client knows which windows to show again when you come out of console mode.

I there an unofficial forum where this can be discussed and troubleshot?

I have the "Custom Look Updates" and the "Show Custom Clothing" options selected. Whenever there is an update for the custom clothing and a new zip file is downloaded, my client crawls to around 1fps and I am not able to do anything until the download is complete. My suggestions would be 1) to have a download throttle option where I can choose a bandwidth rate or 2) have an external program that can be run to do the downloading. If we are able to download the updates using wget for example, I wouldn't mind creating my own script to manually download it. I would however need to know the full path of the zip file on the mirrors. That may be something I need to talk to the mirror owner about.

for the time being i setup a mirror of sir_odie's custom clothing and provide also rescaled versions of this. check http://clothes.el-fd.org/. The instructions for "3" didn't work. I followed the instructions, renamed my custom directory, and started the client again. A new custom directory recreated and downloaded the new files. However, the "scaled" files appear incomplete on the characters. For instance, my shirt (bare stomach) appears on the top part of my back and the rest of my front and lower back are black. Other characters appear transparent. I can meet you somewhere in game or I can send you a screenshot.

If there is another place we should be submitting bugs for the 1.9.1 RC1 client, please say so. With that being said, I found a bug. I am using the new "Floating Session Counters" feature (which is a great feature by the way). When I mix Fire Essences without stopping until I run out of food, it looks as though the scrolling messages need the time to catch up. If you try this out, you'll see what I mean. Perhaps if the Floating Session Counters feature is turned on, increase the speed of the scrolling. Or increase the speed all together. This bug is not preventing me from doing anything. I just found it interesting.

It seems that I lose all of my manufacture window recipes if I have a session where I do not use it. Perhaps it has something to do with not "Saving Files". I just happen to notice it the next time I log in and I remembered that I didn't use the window in my last session. I wish I could give you more information.

The Green Day Role Playing Description is as follows: "Role Playing: Today we honor Mother Nature by not stripping her off her resources." It should be "stripping her of her resources" Extrapolation posted this way back in 2007. I noticed the same spelling mistake 3 years later...just sayin'

Great!! Thanks bluap!! Now I just have to figure out how to compile from source on Windows...

Fair enough.

Ok. The character exists. It appears that the character did not level up since creation. What is the length of time from creation before these type of accounts get deleted? Could I put in a request to have this one deleted early?

I'm trying to create a new character and it says the name already exists. However, when I type "/gossip about [char_name]" with my current character, Gossip hasn't heard of 'em. I am able to create this character on the test server however. Is there a list of character names that are not allowed/banned that Gossip doesn't know about?

Suggestion: I would like to see maybe a small X in the inventory window to clear the information text shown in the bottom of the window. Reason: I usually have my inventory window transparent and positioned on the bottom right of my screen. If there is an incoming chat message when in console view, it's hard to read the message without closing the inventory window. The text overlaps.

+1 on the resize storage idea. Not being able to resize the others is not an issue with me atm.

+1 on the "double-click item in storage to move to inventory" idea

I understood what he meant. The image I found would obviously have to be re-drawn by an EL artist.
