Exult Forum

Hi,

I am running Exult 1.1.9 (can't get 1.1.10 to run at all) in MacOS 10.3.3. Every time I complete the test of ethicality, (or fail the test, for that matter) the game crashes. Therefore I cannot get the fountain upstairs to run, and cannot get the water. Is there a workaround for this? Is this something that setting a flag could fix? If so, does anyone know which one?

Any help would be much appreciated, thanks

What's the problem with 1.1.10?

The program closes immediately when I try to run it. I've seen this problem mentioned elsewhere on the board, but the problem was attributed there to the user running OS 10.2.
It hasn't troubled me so far to just use the older version, but this has stopped things up. I've just tried modifying Shamino's npc flags to unset the 'miscellaneous' 30 flag, which seems to restore him. Not too optimistic about the rest of the game realizing this...

Could you try running exult 1.1.10rc2 from a terminal to see if it gives an error message?

I've been working on 1.1.10cr2 for a while, and actually just got it to run after being more careful about the location of the data files. However, the problem in the temple still occurs in exactly the same way.

Could you submit a bug report at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_i ... tid=102335 and attach a savegame from a bit before the crash?

Thanks.

Submitted a bug report.

For anyone else who has this problem, the quick fix I have come up with is a pretty brutal hack. I first unset Shamino's 30 flag, which apparently is the one that makes him crazy. Then, as Xenka is supposed to appear at this point, but is not, I found her in the npc modifier and teleported to her. She is hanging out in the house of the dead. Anyway, she isn't hip to what I've done, so things are chugging along again.

Hm, there's no savegame attached to the bug report. We really do need that to be able to properly debug this.

Sorry - looks like the checkbox to attach the file slipped by me. I re-submitted and attached successfully.

Thanks for your time. This is seriously one cool piece of software.
