FYI - I play using the downloaded client on Windows 7 Ultimate Edition.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~FIRST ISSUE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

 

First off, the Walking Tour quest is done but I can't redeem it because I either never got or somehow lost the stone the NPC gives you.. at the end of the quest she asks for the stone back which I don't have.. it's such a specific item that I'm pretty sure I can't find another one since its probably only used that one time. Any advice Staff? Players? Its one of the first quests and I get almost nothing from it, I just want it off my list. This also happened on the Prospecting quest where you are originally taught he profession... he asked for you to make 3 copper bars with the Ore you get from mining but he failed to give me a pick axe.. took awhile before I found on in town.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~NEXT ISSUE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

This happens on my laptop and desktop..  If I Alt-Tab or Ctrl+Alt+Del the game locks and I have to kill task and re-launch. I also use 2 monitors to play when I'm at work (nightshift IT, only one in the office...you're jelly!) and if I click on ANYTHING even the background on the 2nd monitor, same deal, have to kill task and re-launch. Basically if I lose focus from the client, its done. 

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! This game is a blast and reminds me of my old school Ultima and Runescape games! Keep up the good work.

are you sure you never got the stone? if you didn't you should be able to click on the npc and there is a section that says something like ' I lost my homestone' or something about replacing it.  have you tried that?

the last alt I made was just after they gave us a free slot and I just did that quest maybe less then a week ago and it was fine so not sure if thats some bug you encountered or something your missing. 

 

not sure why he didn't give you a pick axe but those you can buy at the npc in othalo, also the one at the ec market place where we hand in prospecting dailes and make armor and weapons as well as other npcs that are for prospecting like in rosehaven and nirados.

 

on the other thing I have no idea. 


Slow but steady wins the race or something like that.

I'm just taking it slow, not sure about the steady.

Hi Phear2479,

 

Sorry you are having issues.

 

Regarding the bugged quest; try what BlissMiss suggested. If you talk to the NPC you should see an option to replace your lost Homestone. If that doesn't work we can take a look at it. Did you accept the Pick Axe at the end of the Prospecting quest? It could be you left the reward unaccepted.
 

For your Alt-Tab issue, try switching Rendering  from 'OpenGL - Newt' to 'OpenGL - Java' under the display tab of the settings panel. Please let me know if this fixes your issue.

Well, as far as the walking tour quest , the only option I have when clicking on the npc is the box popping up wanting the stone.. I have seen the "I think I've lost it" options on other quests but this NPC gives no options, they immediatley ask for the stone back. I know I don't have it, I have looked at every item in my inventory very carefully.

Changing the Java setting worked for the alt tab issues, thanks!

If you return to Guide Martuk (he's at the Eldevin City east gate, heading back into Othalo - the NPC who gave the quest), he should have the replacement for you. :)

I have returned to him and ask for a new one, but he says I must complete the walking tour quest first.. he won't give it to me to finish the quest because I havent finished the quest.. if that makes any sense.

Hmm, that is strange.

 

I've added a Guide Stone to the character who was on the quest. Be sure to take it promptly when you next log in and you should be able to complete this quest. :)

I saw that tonight, thank you! That NPC would not give me another one so I was stuck.  

 

Thanks again!
