Curious Artila Nora Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 When I minimize Avernum 4 to do something else, and then try to bring it up again, it freezes my computer. It's a bit annoying because I have to turn off programs like AOL instant messenger while I'm playing. Anyone know how to fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall demonslay3r Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 -Not run other programs -Hit your computer with a hammer That's all I've got. These problems are hard to identify, as I understand. The only reliable fix is to not run other programs that have the potential to minimize the game. With AIM, try just putting up an away message while you play, it you would prefer to stay 'online'. There are options to block pop-up messages and sounds while away.

Garrulous Glaahk the horned slayer Posted March 7, 2006 Share Posted March 7, 2006 shoulden't this be put in tech support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrulous Glaahk -silver- Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I switch between Av4 and a text editor a lot, with no freezing problems (windows 2000). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 SILVER! Hi! Er, question for you: what's up with silverchat? Is it dead? Is it ever coming back? EDIT: And I had this problem a lot, too. A4 doesn't like being the background on my computer. I never found a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Dintiradan Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Can't help you here. Since I don't feel like making a new topic on A4 bugs, I'll post here. On my way from Fort M. to Fort D., I came across a lizard cave. I came across quite a few giant lizards and one 'gazer'. However, it had a giant lizard graphic (I know it was a gazer because of 'Tab' and the spells it was casting). Is this intentional? I miss the pink blob with the eyes. -------------------- IF I EVER BECOME AN EVIL OVERLORD: All slain enemies will be cremated, or at least have several rounds of ammunition emptied into them, not left for dead at the bottom of the cliff. The announcement of their deaths, as well as any accompanying celebration, will be deferred until after the aforementioned disposal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Radix Malorum Est Cupiditas Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 Yes. Killing it is the object of a job on the job board at either Fort Draco or Formello. (I can't remember which). As is killing the Worm Queen, on the same job board. (I think it's Fort Draco, I can't remember any other jobs from there.)

Kyshakk Koan Derakon Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 It's kinda weird, since you see the name and think it should be an Eyebeast or something, but that's intentional. I don't think we've seen Gazer Beasts in any of the previous games; just Eyebeasts and Gazers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan -=microphage=- Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 So THAT's how I finished that quest and never found an "eyebeast or gazer"). There are at least 2 with eyestalks to harvest in other areas that do look like what you expect.

Garrulous Glaahk Elijah Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Don't revive threads that are months old. Doing this a few times will get you canned/banned. (Since I'm not a mod, I'm not sure on the exact procedure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 The exact procedure is very simple: don't revive topics that are months old unless you really have something important to add. It's a bit irritating. On the other hand, nobody is likely to catch on fire or start howling for blood unless you do it with great frequency. No need to panic (or start howling for blood, really). —Alorael, who thinks this topic can now happily die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
