Remember to fix these things for U9:

[DRAGONSUPERDRAGON]

Please make Misty give you epic cold iron crystals when you ask for them.

[TechNoFear]

Fix the bug that changes unbound collectable bags to bound to character (only) while the bag contains bound to account items.

ie put a stack of doubloons (BtA) in an unbound bag and bag becomes BtC (so it can not be put in shared bank).

Take out the doubloons and bag is unbound again (so it can be put in shared bank).

I bloody will not!

Oh, sorry you meant the one in the 12...

To fix the lag from swopping characters, equiping scrolls, madstone shield, lots of zoning, etc..

On Vista and Windows 7: (I havnt found anyone with lag this bad on XP)
1) Go to where the game is installed, usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Turbine\DDO Unlimited
2) Right click on 'dndclient.exe' (application) and press properties
3) Go to the compatibility tab
4) Check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" Windows XP (Service Pack 3)
5) Press OK.

This has fixed it for everyone who has tried it. (You will however loose DX10/11)

To fix other sources of lag such as in the subterrane, ritual sacrifice etc..

When in the game go to:
1) Options
2) Adv Graphics
3) Scroll down to "Environment Stencil Shadows"
4) Untick the box
5) Close

Job done

Hope this helps some of the people out there.

Chai explained it in far greater technical detail then most would get, but the above should be sticky'd in technical support, general, newbie err new player, suggestions, off-topic....you get the idea....

Nice!

the ladder bug, have been here since day one. if you walk to a ladder and try to just use it sometimes there will be a bug wich will not let you climp the ladder. so you have to jump onto the ladder

THIS, i hate that especially inside airships

Also clean the recent freezes (never had one until last update patch) and use of enhancements (sometimes you click but nothing happens).

Thanks!

[Cryohazard]

---Less disgusting splat sounds and watermelon visuals for the death aura would be great. (maybe like a implosion-like dark purple haze with no sounds)
---The PM eye effects for Warforges need to be moved so they can actually be seen.
---Ladder bug fix would be nice.
---Repeating Crossbow bug fix would also be nice. (maybe increase clip size and trap making overhaul too?)

What about some guild hierarchy changes? There doesn't seem to be much of a difference between Leader and Officer. Bring in a new member ranking (say Senior Officer for example). Use this to separate the "recruiting officers" from the guild raid leaders, long time guild members, and the leader's "right hand men"

Please fix/change Death Aura...my eyes and ears are bleeding

Death Aura is negative energy - it hurts you. I'm pretty sure that it's supposed to make you bleed

You can fix it yourself, if an annoying wiz comes near you and you dont like the sound, just hit them with deathward and noise stops.Just rinse and repeat until they get the hint and go away.

lol...the real problem is when I'm playing my PM...makes me not want to

[knightgf]

Oh oh, here's some things to put on your remember-to-fix list!

• Fix long descriptions so they can fit into the box.
• Fix grease so that the spell damage when it is lit reflects the actual caster level.
• Fix mailing so that bound to account items can be sent to characters if the current account owns those characters(Flinches in anticipation of "They can only be sent through the shared bank!")
• Fix a few graphical errors(Lol, figured id be vague on purpose).
• Fix the forums so that reputation no longer exists.
• Fix the shroud so that Harry can no longer teleport you into the chest room in part 5.
• Fix the swashbuckler so that it can be used in PvP.
• Fix the pit fiend animation, as it makes me lol every time I see one run.
• Fix the drop rates for lesser reincarnation so that it is common enough to require reasonable effort to obtain but yet don't make it super rare.
• Fix the optional quests in the shroud so that the drop rates are more common and ACTUAL rewards can be given out(Maybe this can tie in with lesser reincarnation?)

I wanna list 50 but too tired. Maybe next time...

Not really, on my end (vista user... yes big sigh !) the compatibility mode is only xp SP2 (some suggestion why?) and the game won 't boot this way.

Vista only has XP SP2, but that option will be fine.
Is the error Message your getting something "The game client was passed invalid command-line parameters.[205]"?

If so you need to run "dndlauncher.exe" not "dndclient.exe"

I have set dndclient.exe as "run as admin" "xp SP2" then runt dndlauncher.exe and the game won 't go further the password screen after i input that.

Thanks for your reply.

[EKKM]

Also, fix necro I & 2 and threnal flagging.

+1 for Threnal flagging, there has to be a way to make that better. For those that don't know, talking to Sal twice after completing East and West can cause you to become de-flagged.

[Rinnaldo]

Please fix the animation when you have spell failure. As of the last update, the spell animation is not supposed to go off when the spell fails... but it still does.

[Cauthey]

And knowing is half the battle! G.I. Joe!!!

(I just had a major flashback.)

[Drfirewater79]

How about fixing the exceptional seeker so that it actually increases damage like its suppost to. Fixing the Event hats so you can have seeker +6 AND a +15 stat like you can with all other bonuses (like heavy fort and sup false life or +5 natural with +15 stat hats)

[SisAmethyst]

While I agree to many others that some item descriptions and effects would be nice if being addressed, the most annoying and serious one is still the game-crashing-after-several-xxx-changes.
Some people may be happy that it doesn't occur to them, as they probably neither have more then 4 characters, nor run the high-res client nor play more then 2 hours the day to be affected by this issue. The fact that it happen at all to more then one player show that there is a sever issue somewhere to be tackled.
