Lightning Page Bug (I need some help!)

MustardJeep · **Posted:** Tue Sep 04, 2007 11:05 pm

Ok here's one that doesn't get heard all that often, found a bug that Cyan can't verify, and I have KI pictures of it. :shock:

Anyone with the lightning page want to try and see the bug please, confirmation is good, more logs submitted on it are better. All my avie has on is rocks&logs, sun&moon, and lightning relto pages.

The Bug : It is a simple enough graphics bug while standing on the sparkly island looking at the sun in the sun&moon page I was able to position the camera in 1st person just right and see the planes the lightning graphic is displayed on.

here's the movie.

Want to swap ticket numbers?

Mine is 4319-QEDF-1790

Ticketed: 4813-KRNM-4845

I guess they will probably start nagging again about my outdated graphics drivers, which I cannot update without breaking Anti-Aliasing. :roll:

I saw it too, along with D'Lanor.

My graphics were turned down at the time from testing Ahnonay but I can retest tomorrow (it's getting late now!) with different settings and I will ticket it then.

Bah, drivers have nothing to do with it mine are fairly current.

Yep, I see it too. You have to be in first-person and they only appear when you are looking at a certain small area in the sky. I will take some screenshots and create a ticket as well.

EDIT: Interesting... I just noticed that they disappear when the bird flies across that area of the sky...

EDIT 2: Okay, submitted a ticket: 1476-WOVN-6858

I see them too - I didn't find it hard at all to reproduce, using MJ's video as a guide. Ticket to be submitted shortly.

I got a brief glimpse of one of them, then nothing... even when the lightning struck, could not see the plane.

Fully reproducible for me, with graphics reset back to default and in both windowed and full-screen - BUT only when I have the sun/moon page turned on. If it's off I don't see the planes. Could someone else please test this to confirm?

Confirmed. I don't see the lightning panels if I turn off the sun/moon page. I'll add that to my ticket when the support site comes back up in the morning.

I was in the middle of writing my ticket when the support site went down for daily backup.

I don't see the the panels, but the sun looks the same (sharp edged). The moons are fine though :?:

Slightly off topic, but I really do not like the appearance of the "sun" with this Relto page on.

It's just bad. As in ugly, unrealistic, beneath Cyan's usual standards.

Please help me pester Support about this. Thank you.

That is a graphics glitch as well, and I have ticketed it. (No response yet) The lightning page also makes the sky look really bad, as described here.
