2.65b Adventurer Starter Bug

Post by Maxaxle »

If you get Chainmail in the Adventurer Starter, you end up with a messed up Grub Mum texture and your icon changes to the Grub Mum icon. I think that glitch still exists in the newer releases.

No, it doesn't. I did the very same in the first beta testing release and everything remained fine. ...I actually didn't experience that bug in 2.6.5b either...

I also have never experienced a bug like that. Somehow, you and woodmouse have reported some weird bugs that no one else can produce.

- Messed up textures
- Impassable tiles
- Incorrect AI behaviour

...did they maybe install a newer version over an old one? Doing that often causes weird stuff like that to happen. Always install Egoboo to a new directory and then simply copy the stuff you want to keep (players, custom modules etc.) from the old directory to the new one. Afterwards you can just delete the old version if you want.

Yes. I also thought that would be the problem. PurpleSquerkle did the same and had a large number of problems. Always follow Clonkinators hint people! do not install new versions of Egoboo over existing old ones! Either install it in a new directory or first uninstall the old one!

I've always installed everything in a new folder. I've never installed anything over anything.

Always new folders.
In their own folder for all the versions, which is also in a folder.

Yeah. >_<
I normally delete everything (except the characters; I save those for some reason even though most of the time I just start over with every new release), but I wanted to see if I would have any trouble if I didn't... And I did, but I forgot that I had done it so I wasn't sure why. :roll:

I NEVER do that, so that's obviously not the problem...
