Patch Notes: December 1st, 2014

[karsten]

if it's helpful, here's a bit more feedback on the gamma issue:

as others have mentioned, the gamma becomes affected on both primary and secondary screens as soon as the beta server is selected and you hit connect. this also happens when connecting to blue or red in order to initiate a char copy. This does not happen when connecting to different servers (hidden forest, for example)

In response to people talking about classic and not being able to see -- human races (hum, bar, eru) couldn't see without light sources, but other races with infravision, ultravision, etc could. You know this. In addition, not being able to see as a function of race had no effect on the gamma of your UI, whereas this issue does.

So, we're not just talking darkness because it's night, we're talking darkness of your spell bar, inventory, etc.

hopefully that helps with pinpointing the issue.

^ puppet strings are literally invisible in your inventory

I am sure other item icon's are suffering the same fate

BOOM - that is the problem, and it's not classic. Not only your EQ UI, but your OS UI and every other app on you system.

Excellent point on vision and light. I remember that BB tunnel with my erudite and seeing so little distance with a torch. Made ultravision and infravision spells useful. Seems everyone has great sight now.

PS: Honestly have no clue how much running the servers cost so don't really know how much to donate.

Nice work there!

Well it would help if ultra vision actually WORKED! Tested a bunch of times definatly broken...

Guess i should have waited before doing half my shaman epic blergh. didnt even know there was an issue with standard quest and having to faction grind even when doing quest from start to finish.

[Malone88]

Beta buff pack turned my rogue into blind barbarian (why? why? why?),
but Shaman and chanter ultravision spell made vision
normal for me.

No problems seeing until the buff wore off...Would have been
nice if a DE mask was included in the gear.

Either my bank just blew up or a whole ton of stones got deleted. Haha. I just pictured The Block being flooded with little, black, round pebbles. The bank tellers flipping out saying W T F...

The local Cab economy will be stalled because no one can get money from the bank!

Seriously, Thank you for the work. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
