For some reason, the chat bar part of the screen takes up half the screen, and I can't figure out how to get it lower, and also, I can only see myself from the knees down.
I think I read something about a quest, but how do I gain the ability to use magic?
For the chat part taking half the screen, simply use your mouse wheel and scroll down while hovering your cursor above it. Or right-click and 'scroll down' or something like that.
For the part where you can only see your knees and up, I've got no clue.
As for magic, you must find a teacher, which will himself teach you magic. (That's not a very easy thing to do, be warned. As each teacher is allowed 3 pupils, and most are already taken, I fear.)
It didn't work, the only options were 'unfold' and that made it take up the whole screen, and Fold, which brought it back to the half screen... but thanks anyways.
Ahh, I know now what you mean.
It's your screen resolution. Try making it wider by: right-clicking on your desktop, choosing 'Properties', then clicking on the Settings tab.
Not to be a continual chronic whiner... but now it appears that I can't move... it's raining, and I can face different directions. There's nothing in my way...
