blinking and unresponsive screen

#1 Post by richard567 »

I got this bug a few times but now it appears to be consistent.

I am trying to change the weapon set in my golem and (from the off set to the main set) in the inventory screen and the game screen starts to blink and it is totally unresponsive. I tried using the "x" key but I get the same effect. I have to hit ctrl+alt+del to get out of the game. Before in the game I had no problem doing that. My computer has a few problems and sometimes it turns off because of overheating don't know if that can be related.

I don't get the computer asking for a report at this bug. There is any file or info that I can send so people can reproduce this bug? Or there is something I can do here that can fix this problem?

Thank you for the attention.

I have the same issue (randomly, does not always happen) when I visit the offhand page or when I switch to offhand through the hotkey.

I got around the problem (with some difficulty) without restarting the game.

I suspected the game continued below somehow so after clicking on the screen randomly I found a spot (lower left) where I heard a "clicking" noise after some perseverance the report bug screen appeared and after sending like 30 reports and canceling like 50 reports finally the game returned to normal. With the main set of weapons for the golem as I wanted.

The problem unfortunately continued as before only in the direction from the offhand set to the main set.

It's happened to me, but no amount of clicking will solve the problem -- so I've added this level-38 character to an increasing list of characters that I've had to abandon because of some bug....

Blinking unresponsive screen means an error occurred in the interface.
As usual, nothing can be done without you retrieving the error message from the log file.
It will be repeating infinitely, so just the first one and some of the text above it please.
