Chest Slider Bug

IceBear · Post by **IceBear** » November 21st, 2007, 10:02 am

I was told there was a chest deep in Tanglewood forest with a weapon in it and that the combination was 167. I found such a chest in a house guarded by goblins in Central Tanglewood. However, my slider seems to be missing 167 (157 too). It goes 166 and then 168. Help please as I would like my weapon

NM - I tried the 1.01 patch above and it fixed it.

Um...I don't know how this could happen.

Anyone else seen this?

IceBear, what happens if you save, exit and restart the game.

Cool.

I could have sworn I had saved and exited the game and then tried again, but now I'm not so sure. Maybe that's why the 1.01 patch worked as I definitely exited in that case.

I know what IceBear's saying about sliders. The number wasn't missing, as such, it's just the slider moves too damn fast to land on the number he needed... so it appears as if 167 doesn't exist.

Why don't you add arrow buttons to the sliders so that we can move them up and down one place at a time for fine tuning? Remember, the more numbers in the range the harder fine tuning is... arrow buttons would save a lot of unforeseen problems.

arrow keys for GREAT FINE movement would be nice or how about a text box to ENTER the key code in typing 167 is a lot easier then using the present slider to attempt to get it set to 167 when the control isn't that accurte.

The same thing applies when trying to buy an exact number of arrows.... text box or +/-1 button plus roughly position by mouse click would be much better

I thought that was what was happening, but I went and made sure I could do it at 117, 127, 137, etc. That's how come I knew 157 and 167 were missing. I believe there's a small click sound when you change numbers, so what I ended up doing (thinking I was sliding too fast) was getting to 166, and moving to the right so slowly it took 2s, heard a click and looked up and it was 168. I tried that s dozen or so times - even reloaded and much earlier save. The funny thing was, as soon as I shut down, applied 1.01 beta, and started back up I got to 167 first try so that's why I'm positive it was missing.

Anyhoo, I do agree it would be better if you could type in the number or have some way of finer control

Then it's not that.... never mind the patch seems to have done something to it. Still buttons would be nice.
