Amber Client

[Sever]

Do people just hate tile info coming up when you press shift or what? Why did that need to change?

I'm salty, it was there for five minutes and then it was gone. At least I found it again.

There were a couple of complains something about tile info being distracting when trying to point at a specific object.
I don't really have a preference either way, but shift+ctrl at least seems to solve some other annoyances like info getting shown when shift farming and such.

Hey Romov, not sure if its my browser being retarded but when I clicked "Download update" as prompted to when opening your client, it says the webpage cannot be found (404 error). But clicking the full client download instead downloads the update?

There was a slight fuckup with the updates checker in v1.20.6
Better to download new release from here (the link you are getting using the update button might point to Java 1.6 version).

Windows, Linux: https://github.com/romovs/amber/release ... 1.20.8.zip
Mac OS X/Java 1.6: https://github.com/romovs/amber/release ... 0.8_j6.zip

Please add dual monitor support where we can have a second window pop up that just contains our map.

Anyone else having their client crash often now since the last update, particularly when leaving houses.

I got a new sort of crash, at random moment, mostly indor watching in furnitures, game freeze, I have to close the window and restart.

[romovs]

Are you guys on the latest 1.20.8 version? If so is there anything in the console when it crashes if you run with run_debug.bat?

[RickyP602]

Will try running with the debugger

I'm getting a crash and this error message after only a few minutes of game play. The amount of time that passes seems somewhat random but short, sometimes as little as a minute. The crash/error is much more likely to occur if a minimap change is in progress. If I stay in the same small area and the map never needs to change, I rarely have a crash. The JAVA site says only that they are still investigating the root cause of this type of error. I've noticed that when I first start the program using run_debug, a warning is displayed. "Warning: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\Javasoft\Prefs at root 0x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5." I'm using Amber v1.20.8. Help would be great, thanks!
