hi CraftyZA.

 

i discussed the same issue with one of the developers today.

read the last few entries of this thread:

http://opengameart.org/forumtopic/averguard-temple-%C2%BFcomo-insertar-la-llave

 

devolopers solved the problem already.

i am using the latest version from the git repository.

the tome is dropping and i can hand over the item to finish the quest.

you can read everything in the thread.

 

btw:

@ dorkster

sorry i didn't realize earlier, that there already has been a bug report concerning the "tome"

well, it's good to hear, that i have installed the correct version in the first place.

it's also good to hear, that those messages are known and expected,

so far i haven't noticed any further problems, besides the quest-item loot.

very nice game. thanks to developers.

i guess i can check out recent changes as soon as they are uploaded/merged to this git repository:

servus dorkster.

thanks a lot for your answer. 

may i ask which of the versions for arch linux should be used to have the most recent version of the game?

at the moment there are 3 different versions available. 2 of them seem to install 0.17.1. flare-rpg & flare-rpg-git.

i choose flare-rpg-git. will changes be available, when rebuilding the git version?

 

2 further issues you may be interested in concerning running flare and loading game on arch linux.

running game from terminal shows these messages:

No joysticks were found.

Using joystick #0.

No item sets were found.

No item sets were found.

Unable to open menus/npc.txt!

okay. i went through some files within the flare/mods/alpha_demo folder.

but i still need your help, because i am not familiar with any coding …

 

the quest that makes problems:

 

quests/averguard_keep.txt - line 15

[quest]

requires_status=ak_tome_search

requires_not=ak_tome_found

quest_text=Search Ukkonen's lair in the Goblin Warrens for a missing Averguard Tome.

 

quests/averguard_keep.txt - line 20

[quest]

requires_status=ak_tome_found

requires_not=ak_tome_reward

quest_text=Deliver the Averguard Tome to Guill in the Goblin Warrens.

 

item i should loot

items/items.txt - line 45

[item]

id=9000

name=Averguard Tome

icon=225

power_desc=This tome bears the seal of the Averguard

item_type=quest

soundfx=soundfx/inventory/inventory_object.ogg

loot_animation=book

pickup_status=ak_tome_found

 

how to receive the quest item

maps/goblins_warrens.txt - line 319

[event]

# dorm room book

type=run_once

location=2,28,1,1

hotspot=location

loot=id,2,29,9000

mapmod=object,2,28,165

msg=This book bears the seal of the Averguard

requires_not=ak_tome_found

requires_status=ak_ukkonen_search

soundfx=soundfx/inventory/inventory_page.ogg

tooltip=Book Stand

 

is there a problem with the syntax of line 324 in this file?

loot=id,2,29,9000

i cannot loot an item there, i always receive 9000g instead of item id 9000 from your items.txt file.

it's nice to buy some stuff with all that money, but i would like it more, if i could advance in game.

 

sorry for the novel. most stuff is just copy/paste from my installation.

i have a problem with that quest aswell.

installed flare for the first time ever on my computer.

used flare-rpg-git from the arch user repository (aur).

 

description of the problem:

after some initial quests, that guy from the outpost sent my to find a npc called guill

i found him and he gave me the quest to kill the "boss" of goblin warrens "ukkonen" and find the book there.

i cleared the room and killed the boss. i found the book and klicked on it.

back at guill he rewarded me for killing the boss. that quest was removed from my log.

but i cannot finish the quest "Search Ukkonen's lair in the Goblin Warrens for a missing Averguard Tome".

no loot, no object on the floor. only some gold in "chest" and "barrell", 9000g loot from that book.

back at guill, he tells me the same old story, to find the book in the lair and come back to him again.

my notes section of the log contains the message that "This book bears the seal of the Averguard".

 

my question now. am i stupid and do something wrong?

or is that some kind of bug?

how can i continue the with the averguard quest?

 

i don't know if this is a problem, but when i start flare from terminal i receive that message.

"Unable to open menus/npc.txt!"

 

no such file (npc.txt) is existing in any folder within the installation directory (/usr/share/flare-rpg on my system)

 

sorry if that question has been asked before.

i will provide you with more information if required.

 

flare is very entertaining. i like it very much and i am looking forward to finish that first few quests.

great work mr. clint bellanger. thanks a lot.
