Seems to be quite a good version from what I could test so far,
some of the problems I had with 416 are fixed. Thanks, AW :) The upgrade seems not to work in full, some problems that are fixed in the fresh install don't work right in the upgrade. I installed a fresh one, then copied telegrams.dat, telegrams.idx, chat.txt, teleport.txt, default.awm and aworld.ini to the new directory. default.awm is only necessary if you modified it, chat.txt only if you want to keep the chat log. Maybe it would have been sufficient to clear the cache, but I haven't tried that. the derekJun 20, 2002, 4:47am
i think aws trying to purposly piss us off lol first they make a dumb wall
around the wrold and have the terrain suddenly STOP. then they make the terrain go out for about 10 more coords and STOP, all while not letting us SELECT the terrain out there... we can have modular grounds out to infinity, so why cant terrain go out that far? [View Quote] makiJun 20, 2002, 4:14pm
because you didn't pay for that, modular ground pieces can go as far as you
want since the axis is just in the center, and objects can really go as far as you want, but they'll disappear if you get too far away from the axis, gorund wont disappear though, so it's kind of cheating ... ehh...I think you need to stop complaining maki [http://awmaki.com] Promote Jtech! ;) create picture http://awmaki.com/images/jtechl3.jpg [View Quote] pc hamsterJun 21, 2002, 5:13am
Hi everyone:
[View Quote] YEAH!!!! Even OpenGL works as it should (FINALLY!). But with this old PC of mine, the framerate is so SSSSSSLLLLLLOOOOOWWWW (we're like talking less than ONE frame a sec here). System specs.... Pentium 166 w/MMX 64 MB RAM Windows 98 (original edition) DirectX 8.0 (my system won't support ANYTHING higher). 640/272 DSL connection to the Internet (MSN Broadband) However though, OpenGL makes things look a lot clearer than it does in software rendering mode. :-) Can't wait till I get my new system where I'll have 3D Graphics :-)))) Now, all I have to do is figure how far it is from Hamsterville to all that mountainous terrain I keep seeing in the backdrop on AlphaWorld.... :-) *LOL!* Cheers for now everyone :-) PC Hamster |
