I tested again:
  • Nard wrote:some answers don't warp automatically to a new line depending on window size, they are thus truncated.
    It is still true (when windoid is not large enough).
  • I tried twice with not enough items and money: no problem.
  • I dyed a serie of 10 with no problem (each colour).
I retained "Agostine's Dream Dress" as title for wiki.

This happens in all the quests that dont fit in the box, you can always resize it i think.

Fun quest, simple and straight forward. But I don`t think I`ll do it again when it goes to the main server since the reward is a dress and I`m a guy and I don`t want a dress. Maybe if there is a xp reward I would... But other than that I think it`s a very funny quest and I know those who have done it and those who have yet to will agree!X)

heh i know some men that would disagree ;)


I tested the quest again, other than the words "folio" (should be portfolio) and "luxurious cloths" (should be fine cloths which makes the fine dress) everything was great :) timer worked great as well.

Everything works fine, I had no problem that could prevent me from complete the quest. And I scrolled through the answers to read the whole of them (I tried resize too, now some are quite long and not every player will be able to do it) . I just think the actual layout is not very "user-friendly", thus it is not a bug but an issue. I find it is a (little) pity for the author that worked on a dialog and that we cannot read it easily.

Taylor? Why are you keeping that spelling? Where do you find that spelling being correctly used?

Tailor actually refers more to mens clothing, and mens and womens suits and business clothes, including skirts (but not really fine dresses) for women. See "tailor" on the "Dressmaker" wiki page.

Our clothier npcs are fittingly called tailors since they do produce mens and womens cloths that we go about the business of our Mana World lives in...but do change it from taylor to tailor.

This is why Agostine The Tailor needs the help of a Seamstress to do the job :)
