b19 Demon Plane/Grand Corruptor Quest

#1 Post by edge2054 »

After accepting the Grand Corruptor's quest the game locked up.

Here's the stdout.

Code: Select all

Lua Error: /engine/Map.lua:961: bad argument #2 to 'getMoveAnim' (number expected, got nil)
	At [C]:-1 
	At [C]:-1 getMoveAnim
	At /engine/Map.lua:961 displayParticles
	At /engine/Map.lua:487 display

Is it possible to fix this bug manually by changing some lua code, or only way is to wait for next patch to finish this quest?

It's not in the core so I'm sure it's possible to fix it manually. Someone else would have to tell you how though because I have no idea really what the problem is with this one.

I think I got this one, but with slightly different behaviour. Was able to recover. Sort of.
- I play with the window maximized. 32x32 mushroom tiles. Resolution is 1280x962
- He transfered us both to demon plane
- We fought and then screen was locked up and flickering like crazy
- I waited for a while and then hit the move up key (numpad 8)
- It went back to the spellblaze, but picture was out. Had black bands for about top qarter and right fifth or sixth. Under the black band was the top edge of the game, kind of like the entire game had been move down and to the left in the main window. Sorry should have taken a screenshot.
- I tried changing resolutions, meant I could the bottom left of screen (by making it smaller) but never went back to the top.
- Message log just said "Welcome to Maj'Eyal"
- Was able to save and quit
- Reloaded the game and the top of the screen was OK, but not the sides. Just the "action" part of the screen is wrong, like its shifted to the left inside its frame. Unlike before, the log, and stats etc are all ok.

Tried playing with the resolutions but didn't help.
Is there any save file or something I could delete to try and fix this. Makes walking to the left very dangerous.
Any other data I shoudl provide?

Looking in stdout, it appears I killed the corruptor when things went haywire. Stdout from original session.

Edit: Looking at the above screenshot I noticed the "action" area is shifted up slightly. Almost as if it has set the top left of the "action" area to the top left of the window, ignoring the space used my the message strip at the top, and the map/info panel on the left.
NOTE: This is different to the original problem which was the entire game image (not just the "action" area) moved down and to the left

Edit: The wonky screen must be something in the save file. Menu animation and new character works fine.

OK, turns out it was just that zone which was screwed. Recalled out and world map is fine. And going back into the spellblaze is fine too, so the game just got messed up when I killed the Grand Corruptor in the demon plane.

I see beta 20 has a fix about this, but I was never offered or accepted a quest, it just went haywire (as described above) when I killed him, so not sure if its the same issue.

I'm happy, don't have to abandon the acharacter.
