client 0.98 - mute players

Post by Korm Kormsen »

i installed the new client-update via website.

everything works fine, save typing.

the stored texts for speaking and #me -ing can be called up and shown in the game.
but if i type anything, it is not even shown in the editor line. neither shown ingame.

after reading the thread in "general" i erased the mentioned java files.
that did not change anything.

in java i deleted the old client, and made a full installation from the website. i still got the same problem.

my java is 1.5.0_06
my pc is:
AMD sempron, 1024 MBRAM
win 98se

Mmmh, try other settings in the "options". Maybe there is something wrong in your Illarion.cfg.

It is unlikely that the client is causing this. I have checked the forums of the graphics library and there was a problem similar to what you describe, but supposedly it is fixed in the version I included with the client.

Try switching to another window and then back to Illarion. Can you type then?

i switched with word.
it does not change anything.
while i can call with the "F" keys the prepared texts, and publish them with enter, the editor line does not show any typed letters, and enter does not publish those typed letters.

I have the same problem. Though it is solved by relogging and only seems to happen when I start the client and it checks for the latest version. When it loads everything works fine except typing in the message window.

jeremy,

we got the point in another (German) thread.
there it seems, to depend of the operating system.

do you happen to use win 98se as well?
what video card are you using?

When IG my Caps lock/num lock/scroll lock are disabled.

F keys/ shift /alt / ctrl work fine.

Could there be a problem in the key functions list/table (whatever) which is causing this problem? I would guess it would be in something that was changed for version 98 since everything worked fine up to that point.

nop meant:
Das Problem dürfte an der neuen Grafikbibliothek liegen, die erledigt auch die Tastatureingaben. Das problem ist bei ganz wenigen Leuten aufgetaucht, leider habe ich bisher keine Lösung gefunden. Auf dem Website der Bibliothek findet sich auch kein Hinweis darauf.
that means, that he thinks, the problem is the new videobibliothek. that is doing the processing of the keyboard input as well.
but he could not find any solution so far.

Thanks Korm.
Could we revert to the old one whilst the new is debugged?

I have posted a request at the LWJGL forums, but so far I have not received any responses.

Reverting is not that easy, as it would mean reverting all libs to an old configuration thus kicking mac users back out. The mac compatiblity was the main reason for the upgrade.

In order to nail down this problem, I'd like to know:
- How many people have this problem?
- Does it occur every time or is it sporadic?
- What is your operating system, Java version, DirectX version, Graphics card.
- What are your client's settings for full screen, frame rate, graphics quality?

Please, all who have this problem, post complete data here in this topic.

Thanks for your efforts in trying to solve this problem.
Problem occurs all the time for me in windowed or fullscreen mode.

Specs as follows :-

Win98se
Java 1.5.0-06
DirectX 9.0c
Geforce4 MX420 64mb agp2x
Client set to High 32
Frame rate 18

I have adjusted frame rate slightly with no change.
I will play with the other settings a bit and post here if there is any change.

Good luck

32 bits is the optimal setting as well for windows as for the card. 24 and 16 are just for unix installations that need this.

Alytys Lamar,

edit:was du beschreibst, ist exakt das problem, was wir anderen haben.

hast du auch win98? und eine Nvidia GeForce karte?

@ alle,

schaut doch mal vertrauensvoll, welches DirectX ihr installiert habt.....

ich hatte version 6.1 (!)
nach dem update auf 9.0c komm ich garnicht mehr ins spiel.
(der client scheint normal zu funktionieren, doch sobald der schwarze schirm auf ist, wo es nach illarion geht, haengt sich der pc auf.)

@ all

anybody of you revised his version of directX?

i had version 6.1 (!)
after update to directX 9.0c i not even can enter the game anymore.(the client appears normal, but the black screen, leading to illarion hangs up my pc.)

Okay, when I was away on vacation. I had to use a old computer. Here is a suggestion. Dont do anything like for 1 hour. Exxagerating, but dont do anything eventually it will load trust me. If it doesn't you will see a thing pop-up giving details. So, just try waiting.

alytys,

das ist genau, wie bei mir und den anderen.
theoretisch kannst du in deinem char-archiv ein paar #mes reinschreiben, um den leuten ingame klarzumachen, dass du nicht reden kannst.
aber zum roleplay reicht das nicht mal mir.

swish1,

aparently you have not got this problem. so please just switch off, and dont step on our nerves. thank you.
