List of most common bugs and known workarounds


Riela

Recommended Posts

List of well known bugs as of August 2014 and known workarounds or temporary fixes.

I hope this list helps both players and devs with resolving problems related to these bugs.

Some fixes might seems obvious but plenty of newer people have no idea about them.

So hopefully this topic will help someone and reduce amount of spam in open forum and tech support as well.

 

Will keep this list updated together with Rochi.

 

- TV  ”Missing flash player plugin” - Starting TV in user rooms results in error line.

Solution / Workaround:

  1. Update flash player and any related plugin in your primary browser, DirectX, and graphics card drivers.
  2. If number 1 doesn't work, try reinstalling your flash plugin on Internet Explorer. Try it even if it’s not your default internet browser. (http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/)
  3. Try to install older versions of flash player. 

 

- Client bugs - Game wont update, Crashes, Black Screen or Endless Loading with working internet or similar issues.

Solution / Workaround:

  1. Uninstall 3DXChat

  2. Open Registry Editor

  3. Go in the Registry Editor to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/SexGameDevil  right click to this Folder and delete.

  4. Close the Registry Editor

  5. Download and install fresh copy of 3DXChat

 

- *NOT BUG* 3DX uses too much data - Many people have limited bandwidth but there’s a great fix how to reduce data from hundreds of MB per day to just about a few MB per whole day.

  1. Navigate to your 3DX installation folder.

  2. Locate folder 3DXChat_Data then go to Plugins.

  3. Save radio.dll to desktop or any other safe place (ctrl + c then ctrl + v).

  4. Delete radio.dll from your 3DX installation.

What this does: It removes Sky.FM. Thus, radios in user rooms and music in all areas will be gone and only basic sound effects will remain (walking, moaning, etc).

If you want to the music back, just restore radio.dll to plugin folder.

 

Note: Tested with NetLimiter 4.

One hour with Sky.FM results in about 65 to 80 MB.

One hour without Sky.FM results in less than 5 MB.

This included some bouncing around, but it was not at prime time.

 

- *NOT BUG* 3DX freezes or lags for few second after pressing O (oculus rift) - I am sure this happens to everyone that once in while they press O and split their screen however shortcuts can't be disabled.

But what we can do is remove lag that happens when you press O button.

  1. Navigate to your 3DX installation folder.

  2. Locate folder 3DXChat_Data then go to Plugins.

  3. Save OculusPlugin.dll to desktop or any other safe place (ctrl + c then ctrl + v).

  4. Delete OculusPlugin.dll from your 3DX installation.

Note: This will disable Oculus Rift support until you put that plugin back so if you use it. Do not do this.

 

- F/F Dance Animation - one leg always twitches / shakes / trembles - The trembling leg always happens on the person who sent the dance request. This is the newest bug introduced on August 3rd (ver 219). This happen only during the kissing sub-animation.

 

- Eyes blinking - If you use dressing room too much or just rezon, this often happens. Eyes blink nonstop.

Solution / Workaround: Go to any sex pose and moan. If this doesn’t fix it, moan again.

 

- Black ink - After entering an area, an avatar or multiple avatars will appear to be completely painted black.

Solution / Workaround: Re-zone to  your current location or private room. If it doesn't work, make your partner invite you into his / her home.

 

- Female Clothing -  In dresses and some skirts female panties are cut off in half if you "peak" In newest dress everything under dress is missing.

Note: needs bit of testing.

 

- Disappearing Music - From locations and from DJs just cut off or music ending right after a song.

Solution / Workaround: Leave and re-enter that location. Sometimes it can be the DJ’s fault as well if rezoning does not work.

 

- Pitch Black user room - After adding a certain amount of objects, a room may become unusable. It will appear  pitch black. You can still move add or remove objects, but you’ll just see a black screen.

Solution / Workaround: Try to find the character button (second button in lower left corner) it will take you to dressing room. If you go to your user room again it should be fine, if not, just contact support to fix it.

 

- Group chat - dance - PM bug - If you start couple dancing with someone while in group chat as well, your windows may get messed up. You will see yourself writing into group while no one else will see it, but in reality you will be typing into PM with your dance partner.

 

Note: Need to test couple of things - If typing during bugged part still shows up in group chat after refocusing window or not. If you actually see Group chat or PM chat during that bug.

Solution / Workaround: Manually click on PM or ”Group” to refocus your window.

 

- New friend disappearing or not appearing in friendlist - Sometimes no matter how often you add the same person and that person accepts, he or she won’t appear in the friend’s list. He or she will dissapear from your list a few seconds afterwards or won’t show at all.

Solution / Workaround: Let the other person add you first. If this doesn’t work, both of you can try relogging or re-zoning and trying again.

 

- Floating Heads - People only visible from certain angles, Other angles showing floating head or heads. Happens while being in pose.

Solution / Workaround: People with floating heads needs to change pose to become visible again. *Unconfirmed* Logging out of character and back in or restarting game.

 

-  Lag - person or people without nametags -  and / or jumping around the rooms naked.

Solution / Workaround: They have to relog... usually it happens right after they DC’d and logged back in.

 

- Lag Related - Game crashes when loading takes too much time - If you happen to have slow internet ... loading to crowded zones can be a pain. If we can extend timer / buffer on this it would be nice.

 

Yacht Specific bugs:

- Stairs bug - Endless running up or down the stairs.

Solution / Workaround: Clicking on the left or right usually helps.

 

Note: Need more testing.

 

- Camera at the top - Camera near two sun beds right next to one of spawn points. Jumps and cuts through ceilings or walls of that top roof above it - the one with radar, etc.

 

Dressing Room bugs:

Colour bug - There are 2 purple icons on glasses & masks, bracelets subcategories that are totally same shade and everything.

Last female shoes had the option of orange in past now they don’t *need confirmation*

 

Panties disappearing - Sometimes in the dressing room panties will get lost if you change clothes.

Rochi note: Right now it is doing only with ribbon but bra stays on. We are not sure if other pieces did that in past but we were sure we didn't use ribbon so much.

Even so its still bug if it leaves bra on. It should remove both or keep both.

 

*NOTE*  The dressing room and the home editor should be made server side - It is easily “hacked” and people can modify breasts, body shapes and colours.

BUT please consider adding more colour options first, or it might negatively affect your community.

 

*UNCONFIRMED * Drinking - Beer purchasing with one click -  August 3rd (ver 219) - Many times in the Night Club or Public rooms that are crowded, lags can happen (both user and server side) and you end up 35 gold poorer.

 

*UNCONFIRMED - if bug or feature* Text Formatting - People are able to change size, colour and other chat options such as bold or italic in profiles, user rooms lists and chat windows.

Dev confirmation would be nice if we are allowed to use it or not.

 

- Teleport / Blink “feature” - Everyone knows about this one and it doesn’t need much explaining.

                                      

- Ignore List Bugs - everything reported and explained in more detail by Brun in topic linked below:

                                                                   UPDATES

XGold is still only visual but there might be DC associated when timer reset.

Please do not ask how to teleport, edit characters, or change the colour of fonts.

No information will be provided until developers state their opinion on it.

I ask others to do same. Please keep this topic strictly for bugs and workarounds.

Thank you.

You can do this for the TV too, which uses the 'awesomiumWrapper.dll'. The TV eats up crazy bandwidth. 

 

But an easier way is just to rename the file, instead of moving/deleting. Eg. rename to '_awesomiumWrapper.dll'.

No worries and thank you for the answer. I solved this issue by deleting my avi because I just camed back and it hasn't cost me much to do it.

Apparently the other way to solve is to call moderators.
