Just wondering

Post by mgrjebbo »

When are horses on the docket for removal. Seems like they have been in long enough for everyone without one to figure out they are a huge advantage for those who have them.

Not for any reason other than the fact that they really do have time stop lol. My system can more than handle just about anything NWN can throw out but the horse, the horse is like nothing its ever faced before.


The staff knew it was most likely going to be a failure anyway. They are neat. Just not that neat.

It isn't only horses actually. Some new gear causes timestop too. Like a hide ms robes from skara.

I think some patience is necessary here because the DMs & Devs seem very busy right now, covering a lot of issues. With time, hopefully, a lot of these bugs will be fixed. If not...well...


I think in general, pulling the plug on any of the additions since 1.69 just because of some inconvenient (perhaps unforeseen) issues before they are passively understood over time is too short sighted.

Why would I want to count 12 hours twice? I’m perfectly capable of counting to 24, and while we’re at it, can someone go shoot named time zones. GMT+x is all we need!

LMAO.

Anyway Ajantis like i said above this is something that was known to be a problem before it went in as was stated in the change log but they just wanted to see how it would go.

I wouldnt plan on keeping a horse for long if you have one. I hope.

just fyi...the freeze up from horses is from bioware not implementing a cache on images i think...so basically everytime you see one its like the first time....ever.

not sure why the chose to put them in like that with a dumb way to do them..but they did. and the freeze up is completely client, not your system.

Weeell, if we all kill them as soon as we see them and continue to kill them maybe they will fall out of favor. :twisted: Problem solved. :wink:

Horses are fine, Mgrcomplainer. The tiny freeze is like 2 seconds if that, and it effects the rider too..(you didn't even know this) and the horse is way too cool to get rid of. First off it looks great and its kind of what 1.69 offers. Secondly, once we get past the first mount stages both PDK and BG will get specialized horses that will look even cooler (imagine the possibilities!) - what a waste it would be if we didn't put them in. Look at the bright side Jebbo, ridable mounts!! ps. stop yer damn complaining
