Test Update 07/09/2024 - New Bugs Only

Minimizing EQ from the taskbar by left clicking is causing some issues. After you minimize using that method, no matter what or where you click on your screen it will restore the EQ window to its previous/un-minimized state. If you minimize it from the top right corner with the minimize button it works normally.

Oasis of the Jungle seems broken, on the Stop or Survive step, the barrels just warp around, after killing one, nothing in the instance other then that is attack-able to update "stop", and no ae's or anything are going off to "survive", the npc's have hail text with blue responses, but those do nothing either

Dunno what you guys did... but my UI was all jacked up, as is the EQ Window..

* I play windowed mode.
* I had to reload a UI from my live install of EQ.
* I had to this this for both Windowed Mode and Full Screen mode.
* I had to resize my EQ window.
* I have 2 screens.
* Snap Windows is deactivated.
* The EQ window is all jumpy when clicking in and out of EQ, such as to look something up on the internet. it's like it tries to minimize and suddenly changes it mind. It's like a blink, with the window changing position on the screen and then popping back in place. This happens in less than a second but is EXTREMELY annoying.

UPDATE: I am also running two EQ instances.

Interacting with the task bar in any way quickly minimizes and then maximizes everquest, it feels really jumpy, in watching a playback you can actually see the desktop so the screen definitely minimized and then went back to full size.

From the same folder?

Update: also clicking out of the window and then back in makes the everquest window quickly change positions.

Oasis of Jungle Mission.

The Jungle Mission in Tower is broken. Can't attack or destroy barrels as they seem to be in the wall and keep resetting. They don't explode either (they don't have time to before they poof and then reappear).

Hailing the gorilla and saying attack does nothing, as well.

No.

Running Live and Test at same time (separate installs)... never been an issue before.

The level 100 and 105 hot zone gear from teek seems to have no stats on them

Still going nonresponsive like 1 in 6 zones on a random char /shrug
The higher level hotzones are amazing, thank you so much for that. I'd love it going all the way to max some day. (Also props for Sepulchre being a hotzone, love that zone)
The "crashing" (Going nonresponsive) issue has been happening since the test update to the server select screen. I completely uninstalled and spam zoned with no crashes, but soon as I started doing anything with UI (Still default files, no custom anything) it started crashing again. Not sure if that's anything but that's what happened.

First login this patch the UI was scrambled, but I could /copylayout and reload what I had before, for what it's worth.

For people reporting UI misplacement on first launch, what window mode are you launching with? Is your desktop window normal (restored), maximized, or fullscreen? Thanks.

Reporting the same experience. One barrel can be killed, the other two are un-attackable by any means. "You cannot cast Spear of Muram on an explosive barrel" when casting. "You cannot see your target" when meleeing. Taunt does work, but does nothing. /open returns "That is not an object you can open"

There are also three "objects" in the room that can be tab-targeted but have no name, no model, and also can not be attacked.

Failing to kill the one killable barrel does nothing. There is no "explosion" or failure condition.

I am running four (# 5 loading as I write) all with default UI, all are experiencing the need to restore the UI from a prior version. When alt-tabbing, there is a noticeable flicker and a brief, small, resizing.

I run all accounts windowed, in full mode. All run from the same directory. This may not mean anything, but I loaded the fifth account to run the config from the start window, and it defaults to 640 x 480. Its been way too long since I ran a config, so I don't recall if this is normal or not.

The video modes text box from Options->Display does not show the current mode selected and the refresh rate and bit depth entries are both blank.

Best way I know how to answer this is that I play windowed mode, with the EQ window drug out to fill the entire screen as if it was full screen, but isn't.

This makes popping around windows other than EQ much easier.

EQ, until now, recalled the window size / position on my screen.

I am having the same issue. Cannot do anything to the barrels and they aren't doing anything.

Confirming what the other posts have said, the seventh tower floor is bugged and cannot be completed. Two different explosive barrels spawn in the back of the room, constantly falling from the ceiling. You cannot melee them and only one of them you can kill by casting spells on. Once that one barrel is dead however nothing else happens nor does the task get updated.

Two issues, don't know if they are related.
1. Interacting with various UI elements, e.g. moving things in and out of bags, trading items to players or NPCs, etc is causing the UI to flash.

2. Seeing an odd issue at the bottom of screen, it's like the bottom row of pixels on chat windows is flashing. It's not a monitor issue, I can move a non-EQ window to the same area and no graphical issues.

I'm not able to reproduce either of these issues with new UI engine disabled or enabled. Please provide more details.

Are you in windowed or fullscreen mode? If windowed, is it maximized?
Is Overlap Windows Taskbar option enabled?
Is automatically hide the Windows Taskbar enabled?
Do you have multiple display monitors? If so, is EQ on the primary (desktop) display?

Thanks!

Do you have NVIDIA G-Sync enabled? If so try, please try turning it off. Thanks.

If you're referring to the line above, this report is something else.
