Bugs when playing High Elf

Post by Duurdra » Wed Jan 06, 2021 10:33 am

Hi! smiling_turtle_head

I thought I'd post the bugs I've encountered playing High Elf Hunter Female for 5ish minutes. Since they make it unplayable for me currently I felt the need to point them out.

I delete the WDB Folder everytime before I launch the game.
I don't have any active addons.

Bug 1
When I enter the starting Hunting Lodge my game crashes. Sometimes immediately, sometimes when I move around a little so if I'm lucky I can make it far enough away to not have it crash (yet). So far, only in or just outside the Lodge.

I don't know anything more specific that might be causing it.

Bug 2
Kind of worse is that I can't fight anything. I tried shooting or using melee against the Troggs and Bears in the area and they don't aggro on me, so they just keep wandering, being neutral and heal faster than I can damage them.

Bug 3
As a small sidenote, since it's not really gamebreaking, my Intro cutscene visually froze (could still hear it) and the second I spawned the game crashed. Logging back in it was fine after (except for the Lodge crashes). These things might be connected to one another.

Thanks for the fun new adventures I can hopefully soon experience! Looking forward to it!

It is gamebreaking. Please describe how did you patch your client?

I used the automatic Update when opening the WoW.exe, since you released the manual one at 1am for me I figured I might as well wait for it.

I thought I'd let you know I was the big dumb idiot in this. scared_turtle
Discord made me aware that the new models patch changes the game more than just client side visual effects. I must have super read over that one when you warned people about it.
Sorry to have you worry about it! A clean install and nothing has crashed and things look perfectly normal.

Thanks for your guys work on this wonderful experience you've build and all the mess you got to deal with trying to fix things for people like me when I'm just a little dumb. crying_turtle

Patching is buggy. After successful auto-patch my game didnt want to start at all. Downloaded 1.15 client and can play no problem.

Back to original topic:

I'm experiencing an occasional camera stuttering when walking as high elf female in open world. It feels almost like camera is lagging a bit.
Trying to reproduce it lead to following:
= It only happens during High Elf female WALK animation (not run)
= It only occurs outside
= It only starts after you have been walking for a few seconds
= It might occasionally stop stuttering when changing zones
= It might stop stuttering when some other animation kicks in, like being hit

While it's not gamebreaking ( who uses walk anyways? ), it would be nice if other players could confirm / disprove the fact.

Another issue for High Elves is missing "sit on chair" animation. They are able to use default sit animation, but trying to use an interactable chair or a bench makes them stand through them.

I know of 2 (useful, kinda) uses.

Being able to step off ledges onto Mining nodes so I don't fall past them (and therefore can't mine them).
Being able to keep pace with an Escort NPC who is walking.

Oh and roleplaying for conga lines in capital cities ... but that's an RP thing ...

That was supposed to be sarcasm.

Any feedback on the actual issue from other players would be great.
