Exult Forum

Hello
I have finished the spanish version of BG without expansion using exult, and i have a list of bugs i found.

- In win me, it crashes sometimes without reason, reporting a "exult provoke a error on dhelp.exe" (sorry my english, ^^).
- In destard dungeon, with Julia dead, I rest two hours in a corridor, then resurect Julia with Jaana, but was not Julia the one who apears; it apears the fellowship member that guard the cube generator in the fellowship island (and it wasnt in the party, it says her line and attack me).
- If i use the music box of the Skara Brae blacksmith in each place of britannia, the blacksmith's wife say her lines (and it sound prety oniric when I am in lord brithis castle, by example).
- Resurrecting Shamino in the pirates camp in the isle of the avatar, it resurect well, but then apear other guy named "fighter", with the same sword but different clothes than Shamino (ihe doesnt attack me).
- Graphic errors picking objects and traveling by boat.
- In moonglow, i picked up a hammer to resolve the asleep sorceres puzzle, and then i start to try things. The first i make was equip the hammer on the avatar and attack the plaque, but the hammer disapeared and the avatar get his sword. The hammer disapeared from the backpack, and i couldnt find it. (obviosly, i load a savegame before the incident and resolve the puzzle).

Sorry my poor and strange english. ^^

Ah, and the game slow down when there are monster near the party (when the music changes).

And by the way, i have a amd k6-2 150 Mhz, a nvidia geforce4 mx 440 and a sblive.

Mhh, and i am using the 1.1beta3 version. Sorry ^^.

The slowdown is a "feature" to keep you from running away too easily.

Strange feature, hehehe. It could be smoother.

And other two bugs i forgotten.
- In terfin, talking with the innkeeper, it appeared misspeled words, that you can click but nothing happens. By example, it appears "entrenador" (trainer), that works, and next "entrenadorr", with double 'r' and dont working.
- I dimiss a member of the group in my boat and give the order of stay. I Leave the boat in a port with the dimissed npc inside and when i return, the planck was up, and i miss the boat.

Actually, the slowdown makes sense. Unlike in UO where you can outrun everything, in U7 at least you have to fight for it if you want to make a run... uh... or something.

It's annoying, yes, specially when you're in a dungeon and whatever the monster is is still a mile down the maze, but it has allways been this way, it's nothing the Exult team "cooked up"

Newer snapshots (say, from about a month ago) try to avoid the slowdown until a monster can actually get to you. It's not always perfect, though.

"it's nothing the Exult team 'cooked up'"

I know it, i know it.

It's definitely much worse in Exult than in plain vanilla U7, however. Quite annoying, too.
