beta11 - Disappearing talents menu and Graphical glitches

#1 Post by reg_dam »

Greetings.
Suddenly, list of hotkeyed talents dissappeared. Since it was for the n-th time and since I was unable to find any way to bring it back, except for starting a new game, I write this post.
Clicking on small "Display talents" icon do nothing, Tab toggles between visible monsters list and empty list, save&quit&reload do nothing, changing videomode or resolution do nothing except cause strange effect - see attachment (edit: attachment removed, see this pic instead). Sometimes entire map goes white, sometime sprites become "messed up" - demons (I think) in place of trees and such.

There is something (wrong) with the permissions, so only global mods and up and guests can see files if you attach them, otherwise that message comes up.


What would really help, would be to post either a link to or attach the stdout.txt found in the same directory as the app (do this if right after you play with this problem).

Thanks for the reply.
Here's my course of actions (in case I made some mistake):
Played normally, encoutered this issue, tried everything I could think of to restore Talents menu, saved, posted on forum, started new game, died, loaded "bad" game, saved instantly, uploaded stdout.txt.
And the stdout.txt file itself: http://www.mediafire.com/?dy32mm2c1k514vj

Eh, sorry for bringing this up again, but I want to know - am I the only one with this issue?
Can I do something to bring talent menu back? Or such feat is beyond the powers of a simple mortal?

Try hitting page down a couple of times? There are three sets of hotkeys -- regular, with shift, and with ctrl. If you have fewer than 12 abilities, the later pages will be blank.

I am at loss of words. Stupid me. Either this or lack of any indicator that there are several pages of hotkeys to blame.
Thank you, now I can return to this addicting game.

I added a message saying that you sitched now.

The main reason I know about page-up/down is because of someone with exactly the same problem asking on the forum a while ago :-)
