[1267 (Mac OS X)] - Yes, I know it's Level 1 darnit!

2 replies · 1,049 views · Started 19 June 2010

Been awhile since I last played ZC's betas, but I don't recall this happening before.

[LIST=1]
[*]Load any quest where a message pops up in the dungeon entrance.
[*]Enter the dungeon. You'll see the message (usually "Level 1: Themed Dungeon"😉.
[*]Move to any other screen. The message will repeat.
[*]Repeat step 3 for each screen you go to, even previously visited screens.
[/LIST]

Attached is a screenshot of this in action. The screenshot is from the Legend of Romia/Kamala quest, made with an early beta. I would also attach the quest files, but even zipped don't meet the 100 KB limit. Instead, I'll link to the quests themselves on the ZC website...which, by the way, Firefox 3.6 claims is a reported attack site.

Kamala may have been built on a beta, but Simple Link's Awakening is designed for 2.10. Having both of these quests with the same issue makes me think something got changed.

Welp, I just made a quest to check something about this myself. It doesn't matter which build quests were made in: ANY quest will have the DMap message repeat any time you travel between screens.

The link to the quest is here. This was built in ZQuest 1267. Please ignore my poor quest making skills: I'm only trying to demonstrate the bug.

As an aside: 3 screens, classic tileset...how is this file around 850KB?
