Current Known Issues (Jun. 8, 2007)

[Rocl]

I HAVE ALPHA CHANNELS?

[Snowknight26]

I CAN HAS ALPHA CHANNELS?

Fixed to represent LOLCODE more effectively.

[Linsivi]

I HAVE ALPHA CHANNELS?

No, not you.

[Suiram]

My Vana'diel time isn't just 10 minutes fast in event messages, it's completely incomprehensible. For example, my next Imperial Army I.D. tag will be ready at 55:123 Vana'diel time lol

Anyway, your ATI cards have the bug. That's good info -- you should post more details to help narrow things down.

My last 2 PC's and my current laptop all were ATI, and all have spell lock. It's not an ATI or Nvidia thing, it's a poorly programmed FFXI thing. It prioritizes finishing the animation before queing anything else over it (like.. MOVING)

[Mikeal]

That ATI "bug" exist on every Nvidia card ive used...

Thats just FFXI adding movement locks I believe.

[terraflarex]

Hardware enthusiasts are serious business

You're a fucking idiot, who clearly has no idea about how game programming works. It's not the rendering of the animation that prevents you from moving. Why would you even think that? That's seriously just ridiculous. I can't even begin to describe how assbackwards your reasoning is.

Winner.

Looks like Karst decided to get in on the undercover action. Quite like him to get lost about 150 feet underground, though.

[SassiAsura]

Happens on PS2 and Xbox as well.

[Xno]

anyone knows when they re gonna correct this ?

[terraflarex]

Probably will lump it in with the next update which will probably be within the next week or two. They need to add some more things still, so they'll probably correct all known issues at the time of that maintainence.

Or as soon as you drop your apoc.

[Alastaire]

I never claimed it was a pure nvidia bug

Not sure if y'all already know this or not, but the "spell-lock" effect is a result of bugs in NVIDIA drivers -- or rather imprecise support of directX in the drivers. If you use ATI, there's no spell-lock at all.

lol

[Ryko]

That's just propaganda.

[NynJa]

Did this retard just say that Spell Lock is a bug, only found on certain VIDEO CARDS ?!?
Forgive me, but
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[Amele]

needs less serious hardware business and more fixing fucking <t>!

[safer]

i'd still take understood <t> over not using caps for manually typing spells... still need to use shift for the " button D:

[Mifaco]

NVIDIA sucks, did you see their GeforceFX 5800? lol, dustbuster

[Lexa]

I like the fact that I know nothing - NOTHING about computers and graphic cards and whatnot - and I still LOL'd @ "spell lock = result of certain graphics cards."

But yeah, I like not having to capialize everything. That could be just because my Shift Key is sticky though. Maybe they could fix <t>, but still leave the ability to type lowercase? <.<;

- Amount of damage inflicted by the weapon skill "Catastrophe" has decreased, and does not drain target's HP.

What was the behavior before glitch vs after?

After patch, well, Slice is better than Catastrophe.
