Berserk Fast(+2) Quest |
Vapor Quest - broken? So here I am, having fun in Entroband and celebrating finding Hammerhand on the Mimic Quest by doing another level 25 quest - the Vapor Quest. It was easy enough - UNTIL THIS HAPPENED! On the tile to my right (under the pile of arrows) is some sort of glitched land mine which currently has ZERO stars for health. If I get any closer, a dialogue box pops up saying "Error - software bug" while this text apppears in red at the bottom of the screen: "A gruesome software bug LEAPS out at you! Panic save succeeded!" and the game drops to desktop. WTF? The mine is the last monster on the level and I have tried doing weird stuff like tunnelling walls away and chucking arrows at the mine to try and kill it at a distance. Nothing works and the exact same thing happens every time, no matter what. Can anything be done to allow me to complete this quest? PS: Aside from this, Entro is a lot of fun.

I've never seen that happen before. Wait, light or dark hounds breathing in general causes the game to crash? Sounds like there's something seriously wrong. I'm definitely not the best tech person around, but my suggestion would be to re-install entroband. On 1.12.2005 11:27 Dragonboneman wrote: It's really weird. Everything worked perfectly until I started the Vapor Quest. I gave up on that and went to the forest, unaware it was *full* of hounds which caused the game to crash every few seconds. If there are other monsters also being breathed on, that seems fine, but when I alone get breathed on it crashes every time. Oddly, Fire hounds cause no problems. As you say, Elliott, I might as well reinstall as I can't carry on like this. When I get the chance I will try it on a different computer - I have a hunch the fault may relate to my PC.

But don't rely on them seeing them here and fixing them. :P I've been excited to try Entroband, but didn't want to until I finished Hengband, but if there are such broad, simple errors ilke this causing crashes frequently, I think I'll hold off for a bit.

I'm increasingly convinced this is a hardware problem as nobody else seems to have been affected. My PC honestly is a pain in the ass when it wants to be. I was just surprised because as I said earlier it worked fine previously. On 2.12.2005 10:41 NeoTiamatI@fuse.net wrote: Ah, okay. Well, as soon as I beat Hengband, I'll try it out regardless. Maybe they'll have any little problems ironed out by the time I get to it. ^.^ Clvl 49! Seen 1507 times. |
