0.0.8a Problems

Post by MuRkY sLaYeR »

Just downloaded the newest release, and I've encountered a problem. When I start the game up, the cursor doesn't move when I move my mouse. I am still able to type into the login text fields and switch between them using tab, but if I enter my login info and hit the enter key, the game freezes completely. Any help is appreciated, thanks :)

All problems were fixed with tmw-12282004.tar.gz :-)

But talking with NPCs is very buggy. (For every discussion a restart :-( )

Extract? It's a archiv (like zip for windows is tar the standard for unix/linux)...

Yes, I extracted it with winRAR. Now it's a file called "tmw-12282004.tar[1]" What do I do with it?

I extracted that as you said, and overwrote my current TMW files with those... still same problem. I type in my login info, and hit ENTER or press "OK" with the mouse, and the cursor and game both freeze.

What happens now is this -
everything works fine, I type in my login info, hit OK... wait about 2 minutes and then finally a message pops up that says "could not connect to server". I tried switching "URL=" between the two URL's suggested in the other thread, but that didn't help at all. Ideas?

did you actually modify "url=" or "host="? it's host that should be 'animesites.de' and port must be '6901'. can you try to ping this host or telnet the port?
Don't argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Yes I have created an account, but I made up a new one with _M after it anyway just in case. Here's my tmw.ini -

system=
keyboard=DE
language=
core_version=0.0.8
host=animesites.de
port=6901
screen=2.000000
sound=0
chatlog=chatlog.txt
stretch=0
remember=1.000000
username=eternalrabies_M
version=0.200000
url=http://animesites.de/

Still gives same error after about 2 minutes, "cannot connect to server".
