  • I should have remembered that too, ever since they changed the mounts. They make changes and it is like having to learn to play all over again. Thanks!
  • Well someone has a hair up their HAMSTER. Please learn to read, I simply stated this is for "older machines" or "machines with issues". I never said this out performs Windows. But Linux on its own, does do well. I use my micro more often as I am on it now to surf the internet without all the hassle. Linux is not a "gaming…
  • The quest giver is Zoey Fargo, she is the twin sister of Abbey Fargo. You will find her standing near a burning building in Blacklake. If she won't grant you the quest, talk to Sgt. Knox in Protector's Enclave maybe he will trigger it for you.
  • @adrien35 I never felt like speed is an issue in the game, but that is just my opinion. I just run a 50% Shadow Wolf myself because it looks cool. The mount in question should be 80% speed, blue (rare) color, and have 3 slots for insignia; 2 barbed and 1 illuminated. Since I don't own this mount myself, it could just be a…
  • @ewoire21 could you help us, help you by posting system specs such as; CPU, RAM, GPU, OS, etc.? Otherwise it is all guess work.
  • Shava's Guild of Mercenaries Recently Cryptic has made changes to the game communications. Some of these make no sense to me what-so-ever. I understand these are suppose to suppress the spam and bots in the game. Currently my guild and the members cannot do what we like to do. We recruit you as you come in the door. There…
  • I want to know why my GUILD chat is blocked by this action. If I invite a new player to the guild, I trust them. Why can't they join a custom chat channel, why can't they emote, why can't they communicate? I recruit and help the newest players and Cryptic is making this very anti-social. By the time you complete 3 chains,…
  • Other than color, a small icon to indicate the guild or helm could be simple. However, if Cryptic changes anything, there is always a high probability, they can actually make it worse. One of my guild told me today, it doesn't really matter to him, because he prefers to reflect our guild title, but it keeps reverting to…
  • No, because then you just are adding more text garbage to what is already too much. If you said a color variant, then I may have voted yes.
  • @nameexpired Actually you could still be in a guild and not have boons at all. Also you could be in a guild who has the wrong boons or boons you didn't pick for yourself. I am the guild leader, so far no one has been complaining to me about the absence of boons. I sure people come and go from large and small guilds because…
  • I just sent this out to my guild... The idea of giving Wilfred a shotgun is logic, you could use the head trauma to explain to these new players why they cannot do simple tasks, like mail, join our guild, talk in chat, emote, talk, trade, talk in guild chat, talk, chew bubble gum, etc.. Nothing says, "Welcome to the Game"…
  • I plan to give mine an obscene gesture as a name. I just have to figure out how to do it in ASCII.
  • @kreatyve LOL I think they are a parent group of "Egotist or Drama queen" and "The Quitter or I quit".
  • I don't know if the game handles DX9 any better or worse but it can run without DirectX completely. That was my point. I find most crashes are the result of network failure. Unless you get an error message telling you that DirectX was the result of the crash, it is more likely due to the server not responding. After the…
  • @lamashi I agree, I haven't been on to play the dungeons lately but it seems to be nothing but players grinding out AD to become a God like super. Once that occurs what it the challenge? I was on in the Dread Ring and headed over to Demonic Closure when I said in chat, "DC up on #7" some idiot replied, "I want slaughter,…
  • I may have a solution for you (assuming you have drive space and a fair knowledge of computers) if you don't mind using a dual boot. I can post a more detailed answer later but I am working at present. I formatted my old single CPU, Zotac Micro PC with Linux Ubuntu 14.04, and then set Neverwinter to run in WINE 1.8.4. I…
  • How sad, I feel for you. You make me glad to be rolling into work just now. LOL
  • I also played on Rift, they split the chat up by user level. I seem to recall it was 1-19, 20-39, etc.. but there was also custom, guild, trade, etc.. Basically most spammers were gone after you reached level 20. I haven't played Rift for years now, so I don't know if it remains the same. I could join the lower level chats…
  • No 3D models are not a part of it, all the 3D models within this game are found on your hard drive. I cannot stress this enough, they don't need to make models for what already exists in the game. The hogg files contain every line of audio and ever 3D object and creature. It is already there. When they run update, they…
  • Ah yes, the "Why can't they stay dead!" player. One of my regular guild members is a BIG one. One day this last summer Hiviticus told me, "Well I beat the game, I am officially done." I asked him how? It seems that Valindra is featured in the opening cut reel. Also she is the only boss that appears to antagonize you over…
  • @mimicking#6533 I am a database engineer for a security company here in southern Michigan. I know a thing or two about the Foundry and the source code. Could you humor a fellow geek and expand on what you meant by "it is not that simple to add content to the Foundry" when 100% of the content is found in the hogg files on…
  • You just did, but that is a mouth full ... The acronym SISGWEMCADSS is not only long but unpronounceable too. Good job!
  • @magenubbie Those players don't annoy me so much and I am pretty sure I belong to their cult. Let me look in my wallet... ah, nope my cult membership card is for the "Cult of Fun!" sorry. oh look free kool-ade weekend is coming up soon. I always miss those. :(
  • You are talking about "Dungeon Dashers" please read my recent post titled "What kind of a player are you" here on this forum. LOL
  • I got in a party in Blacklake the new people cannot chat in party chat either. We even tried to do hand signals with /emotes. Sorry but no luck. Worse yet a new person once invited to the guild cannot even use the /guild chat to talk to the members. Unless they changed it more recently since the 15th, we are not having…
  • Nope. We tried that, you cannot /channel_join or create a channel either. Problem not solved. Pretty sad they crippled new players to stop spambots when the solution is so simple. Place the chat filter in the hands of the user. Not everyone in the game is going to be offended by the same words that offend others. At…
  • Oh please people, put your geek back in the drawer beside the slide ruler. LOL I work on databases for a living, most of the time fields in the database are aligned with byte (8 bits by the way) and kilobytes. Some database fields are numeric and you have to express the number as byte, integer, long integer, float, double,…
  • Exactly how I manage it, I assist others in need and who else but new players coming in the front door. Also I like to meet and great so I know I am not tossing my stuff at a bot. @magenubbie I suppose I just have a more giving nature than you do. I don't understand your remark about "this is how rats transform into…
  • Value of any "fictional item" is up for debate. I consider myself lucky I learned my lesson with Entropia Universe. The MMO right away cost me to buy ammo for a gun to hunt and gas for a car to drive. Real world cash was transferred from my bank into the game. The game makers claim is people make money playing their MMO…
  • Personally I prefer keyboard and mouse, but I can plugin my wired USB PS3 controller - no driver needed. There is a program called Joy2Key; Joy2Key version 5.0 is $7 Shareware you can buy here. While version 3.7.9 is still freeware available here. While this is 3rd party software, I am pretty sure they will cut us some…
