Prob have to reinstall the drivers for your video card. You using the vgasave adapter, so your ATI or whatever graphics adapter is disabled. So download and install a standard vga driver.

Check your display setttings and try changing the monitor display away from your current setting. The resolution tab being locked in place? Possibly from disabling the quick resolution feature, never had that happen to me before. And about the system restore being the cause of the problem according to jason? if thats the case then cancel the restore to previous settings, or restore to a much earlier date.

Check the troubleshooting tab, disable hardware acceleration and give it a reboot. Try restoring the system to an earlier date if that fails. Also is your comp a desktop or laptop?

Hi Yd, been nice getting to know you in the past few months, good luck in your future life endeavours.

I've seen this pattern also, that keeping just below the next magic level when leveling gives a higher resultant magic level. Say at lvl 30 with 34(99% magic), the levelling would most likely push that % up above 100% meaning it can be ugraded to be +4 immediately with a high leftover %, resulting in a quicker time to reach +5.

However, when i levelled, having lvl+5 magic and even at (30%) to +6, it dropped the magic to +4 (~20%), meaning i would need to increase even more to reach +5 again

Regarding the post, yes some people would do anything for a few extra silvers from repricing 50% goods. Some possible ways to prevent this is the placing of huge amounts (thousands) of goods at 50% which would deter some people from repricing the lot, while also encouraging others to place at 50% instead of higher where it may get bumped. Of course nubs and some others would be bought no matter how many is at 50%.

Another way of course is to bump the goods if you notice a large number of 50% goods repriced to just above 50%. Some people are always willing to help bump if you dont have the 20 characters yourself. :D

Also, placing a few intermediary prices between the lowest offer and 50% to deter the person repricing buying your goods at above 50%. It also encourages others to place t…

think i saved you the embarrasment of almost getting beaten by someone 6 lvls lower. but steal ahead i dont mind much :p

There comes a time when agreements are not followed by all. When a small percentage chooses to contravene and reap benefits, the majority usually follows. Its sad that we cannot keep TA as a 'paradise' where everyone works together to establish a new island, but its a part of the game and there is every right for individuals to do so. Soon enough TA will be no different to our mainland, where theives steal without mercy, pvp fighters attacking our own front line soldiers at will. There will be many controversies sorrounding this issue, certainly hindering our TA progress but also bringing about an awareness of the perils similar to those we experience on Larkinor. 

However i think a balance must be met, where there is a general agreement such as stealing and pvping only on squares that …

> in teh earlier levels i must say that my robber is making double what my digger made at those levels, with the added bonus for bieng able to kill things that are harder than a mammutfly or lumpant. you dont get double hit either, another bonus.

Diggers because of their luck helps hit monsters even without the weapon skill required. They do around 1/2 - 3/4 damage compared to what they do with weapon skill. So as you level you will still be able to kill things that your robber might have killed 2 lvls back. Because of the luck variable when it comes to who hits first, there is big fluctuations. This range therefore means diggers might be double hit one round, and hit first the next. Though robbing may be better in the lower levels, in the long term digging is a more risk free and bette…

Well like Sandy said, he now regrets investing into dexterity instead of all into luck. The model is his outline based on the fighter/digger combo used, so if you would like lots of cash then investing in luck is all you need. By comparision to the model, my diggers completed mission 33 at lvl 28, which is 3 lvls after Sandy's. Since luck helps in many aspects of the game, it helps you hit monsters with 2 weapon skill where non-diggers would miss or barely hit.

> i'm particulary interested at the fact that when you reach a certain level some monsters cant hit you part. do you have stats for this or is it just something that has been sussed out over time?

This of course has to do with your increasing level resulting in higher protection and higher damage you inflict with new equipment…

Cloning while you set your rank to shy, harmless or average will mean only others of the same level as the clone can attack it. Cloning it on tough means others the same level or 1 level higher can attack it. Cloning it on formidable means others of up to 2 lvls higher can attack it. God means others of up to 3 lvls higher can attack it. 

Vise versa if you want to attack other clones, placing your rank on shy, harmless, average means you can only see clones your level or lower, etc...

Regarding the scenario you described, if Minnie is to tranfer money to Mickey, the item needs to be listed at the lowest offer at the market in order for it to be bought (usually 1 below the current lowest price). If say there are already 40 listed at 1000 silvers at you place yours at 1000 silvers also, it will not get bought until those listed above you are sold first (if the owner does not add extras of the same item at the same price). 

> Mickey puts that item on the marketplace for 2000%. and Minnie waits for price to come down to 2000%. By the time it finally shows the 2000% as the lowest price there are 8 of that item.

The only possibility of that happening is someone watching the market very closely and placing their items with the one you dropped. Although your item would st…

Some great ideas mont. Maybe for future updates, will certainly make the game more interesting.

I usually keep an eye out on what is dug up, but have not recalled ever digging up 3 diamonds at a time. Luck may not be a factor in doing so.

Simple solution, dont hang around cc on god mode. If you like to hunt monsters on god, fine, but switch back to shy once you enter cc. Pvps are approved in larkinor and is not a harrassment, except on certain terms. Read the Terms of Service. Same thing goes for stealing off other characters. Anyone else you wish to discuss, you may speak to the mods and see what they think.

Keep an eye out for certain items that can be bought from general/weapons stores and are either not listed on market or listed at a high price. For example, the throwing dagger you can buy from weap store in cc is listed at over 2500% each on market. Now get your fighter to buy a bunch from weapon store and list at 1 silver under the lowest current offer or (in this case at 2050 silvers if non-sub) and buy the lot with your digger. 

Another method is using a higher lvled piece of armour, to sell cheap/buy high/repeat, but this involves risk of it being snatched and takes a long time waiting for price to drop. 

Another method is buying out all the 50% items listed on market which often happens when it has been listed by 20 different characters (this bumps off the higher listed price i…

Depends on whether you want to make more money or be able to carry more and fight better. More luck means better chance of digging up hyperiums, which in turns means more exp and money.

Looking at your character, he has 6 intel but has not learnt magic yet. Do this asap, but it may be too late already. I'll prob suggest fighting with weapons since you wont have enough mana.

Dont expect much apart from empty holes on ta for you currently. 11 luck will get you max of 1 putty, along with the ore/tin/gems below diamond. If he is a digger, then increase the luck to 60+ and dig on larkinor in the meantime (see the digger study post for where to dig). If he's a fighter/mage/other then dont worry much about digging with them and create a digger for the job.

lol Sandy, those waterspells are so easy to miss. At least your aim is slightly better than mine yesterday ;\
