Graal v6 Open Beta

@ bullet projectile, there is the fact that i cant shoot and damage the person upclose and certain guns i can shoot through certain length walls (unstick me walls/bushes on era) while damaging unexpected players with invisible bullets, ex shotgun, sten. Etc.

Also in the sound, it sometimes has a sudden jump in amplification to the sound, like a very loud popping sound randomly, and it hurts my ears.

Also you should add an option to mute the choir sfx when receiving a PM.

When I try to close the game it freezes.

†Cross† helped script the old one, I can get ahold of him on yahoo and force him to help script it back D:

Changing player.head on clientside should work fine normally, although there is a check for trial accounts which will make the head switch back to head0.png if it's not one of the allowed trial heads.
It's also making sure that the head graphics are on the server, can someone check if the head graphics are available there (via /find command)?

I was testing it out and it seems you can set your head, but it sometimes doesn't change like Luda says, and if I try it again, it will finally change, but sometimes it doesn't until I reconnect and set it.

This is definitely occurring with heads that exist on the server and are otherwise usable, I recall /find filename being the first thing I tried testing upon hearing about the problem, this is also happening with swords + shields (though not bodies), this leads me to believe it's just a case of the data not being sent to or received properly by the server.

I've noticed when using my current account and my old account (trial on hosted servers now) that the head changes to head0.png for my trial but still shows whatever head I set from current character window.

Are they going to release the In-game playerlist and profiles?

What's to be released about it?

I've been using V6 for a while now, more than a month..?
The lag is suppressed a lot in V6, and levels load seamlessly without having a client pause each time I enter a new level.

However there is some small small burts of client lag/freezing on the overworld, but I'd take that over the annoying level loading freezes anyday.

But the smoother gameplay is the main reason I'm using V6 for now.

I'm starting to see random people's bodies shrink and grow back to normal, while being transparent when they do stuff like walk or attack.

Kind of annoying.

Sounds like a gani script error

[EclipsedAngel]

By the way, on the new beta, screenshot feature = total chaos. My video card and monitor freak out and graal freezes.

Just for future reference I've compiled the links to all of V6 Beta clients here.
