Blight Client 388.19

Lots of little fixes:

• Quest UI doesn’t have columns for sorting (it shows the quest steps), so sort alphabetical
• Update interface for visibility so the difference between being visible and ignoring is better understood
• Crash fix for changing hover name size
• Crash fix for characters that don’t have models (model failed to load from disk)
• Crash fix when updating character that doesn’t have any textures layers loaded (textures failed to load from disk)
• Crash fix when coming out of full screen mode into non-standard resolution
• Crash fix when removing loot effect from a monster that was in view, then player teleported close by, and then monster unloaded
• Crash fix when closing chat window, but there’s no active tabs (chat windows)
• Add Techniqued Flag to Consignment Results
• Add note to character creation page that Free Access is a single human character
• Support for random sound emitter delays
• Increase maximum items in trade to 30 items (from 15)

and a couple bigger changes:

• Various fixes to sound manager to make sounds play properly
• Optimize / Clean up Trade Window

The trade window has been streamlined so that the filter selection is available directly from the interface. This should make it much easier to browse / filter items in consignment. Also - we are in need of a few icons. If you would like to make a few new ones, please send in a support ticket to let us know (we'll let anyone else know that some are being worked on). The icons are for Requirements met, Scribed and Teched (graphic23_notscribed.png, graphic23_reqmet.png)

If you normally play with environment sounds turned off, please consider turning them on. The sound fix resolves the issue in New Trismus where the birds would chirp over and over. If you hear a world sound (not a combat sound) that seems incorrect, please take note of your coordinates and send in a support ticket.


As with all bug reports, please provide clear instructions on how to reproduce. Coordinates, items, etc. are all helpful in helping the developers to understand any issue. If you have character specific issues, or would like to submit logs, please visit the support site.

For instructions on how to enable logs, please see this KB article.

Thank you for your help in reporting issues.

It appears all colors vanished from dyed items,both peds and dragons. Even banners of tempest and volcano and blighted items miss their colors. (they are default ironsilk/mithril/adamantium colors)

FIXED: In release 388.20

On the modified trade screen, the 4 new filter buttons are set up such that after selecting one it is necessary to select the "all" button in order to allow any other of the new 4 buttons to show a proper result. Can this be reconfigured such that intermediate use of the "all" button is not required in order to select another of the new filter buttons and see a proper result?

DEV: This should be working now with 388.28 - further updates were completed to the trade interface. If you see a problem, please describe the NPC you're talking to, and exact the step to reproduce and what's wrong.

Receiving items in trade window don't appear in grid mode and show as unnamed in List mode.

DEV: Fixed in 388.30

The bird sounds are much, MUCH better now! Though I would put a little more time between sounds (I read on another post that there's 3 seconds between sounds, perhaps this can be upped to 5 or 10 seconds?) as it still gets mildly annoying after a new minutes of sitting in New Trismus, hehe.

Also, the beetle pets.. more space in between their buzzing noises would be appreciated. :P

DEV: Fixed in 388.28 and updated to a max of 6 seconds between sounds playing (random time though)

Dyed items lost their colors in the equipment window and inventory windows (if dyed biped armor is equipped the color is shown on the character, but not in the windows).

DEV: Fixed in 388.28 and released to Blight

@Kida - The sounds can be adjusted by player, if they want to tinker with the files. All of the sound .def files hasn't been updated, but a working example of the new format can be seen in /resources/sound/ambience/Sound_Ambience.def

Copy that to override folder and you can play around with the settings.

Currently, only //Birds and insects shows the new format (and only one updated - so far).

Code:

---


                {
                        string name = "BirdsAndInsects_amb"
                        bool soundLoop = true // this means keep selecting a sample (but always different)
                        // take note that the emitter manager does the re-select right now
                        // once the sound select functionality is removed from the emitter and placed into the
                        // sound manager, then soundLoop will be used
                        TSample list sampleList =
                        {
                                {
                                        string filename = "spec_amb_01.wav"
                                        float float sampleMinDelay = -1.0 // sometimes play this sample before the previous sound finishes playing
                                        float float sampleMaxDelay = 3.0
                                        // bool loop = false
                                }
                                {
                                        string filename = "spec_amb_02.wav"
                                        float sampleMinDelay = -1.0
                                        float sampleMaxDelay = 3.0
                                }
                                {
                                        string filename = "spec_amb_03.wav"
                                        float sampleMinDelay = -1.0
                                        float sampleMaxDelay = 3.0
                                }
                                etc etc
                        }
                }

I've found using sampleMaxDelay = 5.0 or 6.0 pretty interesting. Values, etc are still being testing, those values aren't set in stone. I'm not 100% sure if all sounds are setup with new format, just yet, but know that the Birds and Insects can be changed, at this moment.


@Terao - v388.20 is on Blight now, it should fix this issue, please patch and see how it goes.

@Salwirk - I believe this issue is also fixed on 388.20, please patch and see how it goes.

Question about the inscriptions on items. I thought I saw that this was fixed in prior blight notes... So that spells and scales, etc can be inscribed? Just logged in to blight to test it. The inscriptions didn't stick when consigned (so they likely also do not stick when placing something in storage either). Tried a tier 3 spell and a tier 5 scale. (388.20 client)

Socket techniques applied to claws and scales (probably to everything) just show in the items' list as "<missing>".

DEV: Fixed in asset patch 2015.AUG.21

Trade items are still 15 for blight client 388.20

DEV: Fixed in 388.28 on Blight
