Character Whirling

My character started whirling around out of control.I tried the escape key and a few others but ended up just mapping out in the middle of what I was doing. Is there any magic key to stop this problem?Geffen 02:17, 28 October 2012 (PDT)

That seems to happen from time to time - no magic key, I just keep playing through, it ill work itself out.MystiLefemEle 02:27, 28 October 2012 (PDT)

There is a key sequence that causes the character to rotate after releasing all keys, I've not triggered it in a while but its something like hold [whichever key you press to turn right], press [ESC] and then release the [whichever key you press to turn right]... and then you keep rotating. This may not be what you were describing since it stops when you press any direction key.

I've also had this caused by both direction keys becoming stuck underneath other keys on the keyboard ... which can only be fixed by buying a new keyboard ... and by mouse jitter which can be fixed by moving the mouse a bit :/ Chieftain Alex 07:40, 28 October 2012 (PDT)

Thanks for replying so soon.As you say, sometimes it works itself out, but other times not. On occasion I've also had it stop as you describe, by pressing a direction key. However , what I've learned from you is that I am inflicting this upon myself. I am by no means an expert player, so I proceed fairly slowly most of the time, while continuously holding down the left Ctrl and Alt with Pinky and Thumb (to make sure I see any foe or loot) while at the same time operating W.A.D. as well as Q. and E. with the other three fingers. The right hand is for the mouse and the coffee. So I must mend my evil ways and try to play like normal people do.Geffen 04:13, 29 October 2012 (PDT)

Yeah, the "Spinning / Whirling" can be amusing at times - Cheers!MystiLefemEle 10:55, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Mission Unavailable

My character is from Prophecies and I have started the Nightfall Campaign, doing Missions Consulate Docks,(Hunted.The Great Escape.And a Hero shall Lead Them.)Venta Cemetery,(the Council is Called,ToVabbi!Centaur Blackmail). Then Zhed Shadowhoof joined and we were in prison at the start of the Kodonur Crossroads Mission. I mapped out to stop playing for the day, and now I cannot seem to get the Mission again. I have tried backtracking to previous Missions, but the story flow is simply not there. How can I get the Kodonur Crossroads Mission again?Geffen 10:48, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

So, to clarify, when you press M on the world map, can you see the Kodonur Crossroads mission icon? (Its to the east of the Sunspear sanctuary icon).

If you can see it, what happens when you talk to Estate Guard Rikesh.

If you can't see the mission icon on the world map, does it look like you've travelled through Jahai Bluffs and uncovered the map? (perhaps you could walk back to the outpost :p )

And finally, are you sure you're on the same character? :D Chieftain Alex 17:18, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

1.Yes the Kodonur Mission Icon was actively pulsing. 2.Yes :) the map is thoroughly uncovered 3. ^^ Yes It is the same Character. I thank you for caring enough to question all these details. It had to be a Two-day Glitch! Even after starting from Consulate Docks all over again, Rikesh ignored me in all my many attempts to change some possibly small thing. However, today he responded with the magic words, and I was able to get the Mission again. Yay! Geffen 21:14, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, lol, realised what was probably wrong now. You possibly forgot to add Zhed to your party before starting? (glad you've got the mission access sorted though :D )Chieftain Alex 21:26, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

PVE Skills available to character and heros/mercs

→ moved from Talk:Main Page

Are there future development going on in the original GW? It would be nice if they can also make the characters pve skills available to all heros/mercs. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mysticque (talk) at 01:48, 5 December 2012 (UTC).

Is there a way to see the exact date a character was created?

Other than noting what day the /age switches from 11 to 12 months, not easily. If you knew the creation dates of a character created earlier and another later, you could cosrt the character selection screen by creation date + make a guess. --Chieftain Alex 09:56, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

ty for the response i wish it would say something along the lines of you've played this character X-yrs, X-months, X-days, X-hrs since ??/??/?? when you type /age

How to get rid of summoning stone and their weapons?

How do I get rid of summoning stone and its weapons--98.248.20.180 21:31, 2 January 2013 (UTC)

The Only way I have determined is by destroying them (wastebasket icon to the right of the icons for bags carried) neat part is if you decide you want any one of them after having destroyed them you can respawn them. What you cannot do is only spawn the one or two you want (it spawns all of them) nor can you drop them.
