Greetings, Xzile here sorry for my absence on BB just on alil vacation type deal anyhow its good to hear everything is well. I should be back in a week or two so I'll be expecting a party, hehe jk anyhow hope to come back and get rackin on the itemdb again :D talk to ya all some time from now love yall *smooch*

just wish the zones were actually up half the time ... but so far ive been playing in one zone, it's really fun.

Which zones were you haveing problems in or are they not spawned or what?

No zones up
 

hi. Last night, Jan 4th, the only zone that was up was crushbone.
The game refused to put the zone up to let myst in, so I logged in an alt to movechar him to cb.
a few minutes later, maigus came into my room to complain about him not being able to log in so I decided to bounce my guy over to oasis, which crashed me to the desktop. After that I made 4 alts, and none of the hometowns would let me log in.
(forced em to go play ughhh....Ra) very slow and boreing compared to here. they had what? 2 zones I could fight in?
Conan, they were all down. gonna bounce in now to see if they are up.


for those of you that haven't logged in since 5.2, hope you didn't have any important hotbuttons, cause they all gone now...lol
(you can proly cutNpaste them into directory somewheres so you don't loose them like I did)

Myst

Not sure on what the problem was, the seem to be fixed now from what I can tell.

Server is down
 

Server is down wont appear in the server list, whats happening? any ETA? thanks

Isp had a problem but is back up now.


At some point today I will be bringing the server down for around 20 mins or less.

Reason: The server will be updated with perl enabled for the quest system as well as fixing the Death/Ld bug and the Npc Hp bug.

Cool thanks conan, now all the zones seem down it says ZONE UNAVAILABLE for all zones, concan does the server have a FORUM? if not u should make one would be a nice idea so u can post uptades and when will the server go down there.

If there is a zone UP could u take me there plz m8? the name of my char is "bardo" thanks.

Let me take a look at the servers to see whats going on. As for the forums I am working on that =)

Edit found the problem, give me a few mins to resolve the error and should be up and running then

cool good job conan will be waiting, where was the problem? and another thing, what is the new quest sytem about?

There was a problem with a table in the database, When the new quest system is in place, Its much like the old just uses perl to run the quests, which from what I have read is much faster ect...

Man this is getting no nasty :evil: now I cant log with my main "bardo" to any zones, after the schar selection screen I clock enter and it returns me to the server window, I can log to zones with other chars but I cant with my main, plz can u do something


Again all zones are down :cry:

Try now Sir.

nothing it still pops me to the server window when I try to enter

Did you put any new or recent items on that char?

No, I was in Ponightmare and tried to #zone it crashed, then all zones were down and couldnt enter, and now I can use all my alts but I cant use my main

Please delete this char and remake him and meet me in the game please.

ok will do bad thing about equip :(

Thanks again mattmeck.

I just started on EQEmu yesterday and BB was/is the only server i have tried as of yet. I like it but it does have some bugs most of with have been mentioned already. the only one that really annoys me is the constant crashing. Its like my comp freezs and i cant do anything. Normally i can Ctrl/alt/Delete and close it down when its not responding, sometimes i cant.

Things I would like to see:

1: More Mobs
2: With it being semi-ligit it makes everything alittle too easy
I.E no longer have to kill for uber loots and nothing is
LVL regulated. is there some thing you can add to give us a
challenge?....( if i think of anything ill be sure to post it)
3. obviuse Bug issues to be fixed
4. more zones
5. more ppl online :lol:

Thanks

qwerty_junk tell him that in his forum thats why he has it 8)

1. I will be working on more mobs.

2. If you take a look at the all the planes of power zones they are much harder than normal zones.

3. Fixed the bug with death/ld bug and the npc hp bug.

4. I will be working one some more spawns this weekend.

5. As for more people online well, we all wish it =)

I have also posted about this in the general support forum...

Hi I am wondering if this is a problem that is unique to BrightBlade because I have only encountered it there...

I tried to search for this but I couldn't find any posts. This is quite a problem for me and has happened to me many times. I find that while playing on Bright blade I keep crashing everytime I want to return to a zone I have visited before ie: going from North Freeport to West Freeport and then back to North Freeport will cause the game to crash and a error report option to pop up.

Furthermore everytime this crash occurs and I try to reload my character and enter the world, the crash will keep occuring while loading the character into the world causing my character to be unusable.

Everytime I Had to create a new character and start from scratch... is there a resolution?

What is going on? Is there a resolution?

Ps I am a noob and do not know much about EQ. Thanks for your help.

I keep getting the same problem, Error messages or a freeze up when i try logging in on my characters( Deleted my bard 3 times and it seems to rotate between error and freezes.)

2 things
 

First off, BB forums has been moved to

http://www.bossmob.com/BrightBlade/index.php?

and secondly, it sounds like the zone your trying to enter isn't up. In that case, make a newbie character, and use the #movechar command. I tend to move them to butcher. it's almost always up.
Should be #movechar <name> butcher

your lucky I still come here. No-one else does. lol

Myst,
Knailer

I have not had the plague that the rest of the posts I have seen here <going ld or crashing>. In fact there has only been two examples I can think of that I have crashed out totally or went ld, and that was when I went to befallen <2 times>.

Two thing, however come to my attention that could be worked on <if there is ANYTHING that needs work>. One of which is the pathing of the spawns. They tend to go through walls to attack you. This would not normally be a problem, except that if you are in a tight area, they dont fully come out of the walls... therefore sometimes you cant target them to attack them as they are on the other side of the wall. Also the fact that it makes the sneaking skill totally useless, if they can see <have aggro towards you> through walls...

The other thing that I suggest, is the spell bug. If you decide to play a caster type of character, you are in for some serious trouble. I am sure you are well aware of how it affects the gameplay by now, but in case you dont know here it is hehe: You can cast spells, but after a couple <or so>, all your spells and skills are un-usable. The system thinks you are still casting, and gives you the message "you cannot use that command right now", or "you have not recovered yet". If this were fixed I dont think any other bug on the server would matter to most folks... It is just that nice of a server.

I for one dont much like semi-legit servers, but I have to say this is one that I play on almost daily <well for the last week or so haha> and probably will continue to play on it. One reason is because I CAN summon uber equipment to destroy everything in the zone, but I can also play it legit only summoning bronze at best and so on...:)

P.S. there is ONE more thing I guess I forgot until just now, that I feel I should mention. While you can group with other people, the exp and loot for it is VERY buggy at best, and not much worthwhile <at least from my experience>. As I said, I am NOT complaining about anything about this server, and you could almost leave it as is and it would be very fun for a long time to come, but since you asked <smile>!

post this on the server web site samandhi

yea
 

BB in my opionion is the best semi legit server that there is, I love playing on it, and killing things...As we all know..the spawns should spawn just a little faster... I really enjoy playing on the server, but going LD is a drawback, and about the "Mobs" that just stand there, and you cant con/attack... they are just respawning, like in chardok it is there alot... BB IS THE BEST SEMI LEGIT SERVER THERE IS!!!
