A few bugs/glitches found
« on: January 14, 2008, 04:53:12 pm »
Hi guys,

I'm new here and first of all I want to say that I truely love this game in every aspect of it. I thank the producers a lot for making such a beautiful game.  ;)

However, I've encountered 3 bugs and glitches I would like to share with you all. They're kind of spoilers so beware  ;):

1. The first one is with that shell you can sleep in. It seems that I can only sleep in it i.e. click on it when I'm in beast form. In any other form (even in normal) the cursor doesn't change when it's on the shell and I can't sleep in it.

2. The second one has to do with Li. I can't make him stop following me. The game told me that I can leave him in that cave again by right clicking on the helmet. I've clicked a hundred times on it but he's still following me. I don't know if this has to do with my progress in the game since I'm at the end of the Body where you actually need him. Also, before I made him follow me I actually saw 2 Li's in that cave  :o. I don't remember which one I picked up though.

3. The third one is more of a glitch than a bug. I've found out that you can push those blue health-jellyfish out of the water (by thrusting against them) and make them hang in mid-air outside the water  :P

And one last thing about the last patch (1.0.3):

Does anyone else also only see a token for the jelly king after installing the patch? I have defeated the mantis (assuming that's the boss of the frozen veil, right?) and i don't see any token of it on the map. And to which boss is the mergog referring to? The rest of the patch works perfectly  ;)

That's all I wanted to say and I apologize if these bugs and glitches has been posted before  :)

Greetings,

JohnnyG

Hi, welcome to the forums. :)

1. The first one is with that shell you can sleep in. It seems that I can only sleep in it i.e. click on it when I'm in beast form. In any other form (even in normal) the cursor doesn't change when it's on the shell and I can't sleep in it.

That isn't a bug, its intentional. The idea is that in beast form Naija can communicate with certain creatures that otherwise wouldn't like her.

2. The second one has to do with Li. I can't make him stop following me. The game told me that I can leave him in that cave again by right clicking on the helmet. I've clicked a hundred times on it but he's still following me. I don't know if this has to do with my progress in the game since I'm at the end of the Body where you actually need him. Also, before I made him follow me I actually saw 2 Li's in that cave  :o. I don't remember which one I picked up though.

Yeah, once you hit the body you can't get rid of him.

3. The third one is more of a glitch than a bug. I've found out that you can push those blue health-jellyfish out of the water (by thrusting against them) and make them hang in mid-air outside the water  :P

Sounds cool. :)

Hey and welcome!

1. Is intentional afaik.

2. After a special point (I think sunken city door or start of the body) you can't make him stay at your cave. But what do you mean with two Lis in that cave?

3. Hah, levitating Jellyfishes, that's funny! Have to try it. ;)

The mergog is the boss that gives you the pet piranha if I recall right. And you get only tokens for bosses you beat after installing the patch. I killed all three before installing the patch and I don't get a token for them.

Damn you Alec. Being up all night and nevertheless posting faster than me. (Aquaria conspiracy, I can see you earning credibility! ;))

Thanks a lot for your help guys. Guess I was completely wrong thinking they were bugs  :P

@ Xiagan: A while after I got to know Li I went back to the cave I had cornered him and I actually saw two Li's swimming in there; one near the entrance and one at the end of the cave where the helmet lies, quite weird. I recall someone making a topic about this before but I can't find it at the moment.  :-\

The only topic I remember with 2 Li's is near the end of the game (spoiler) (being a boss and having to sing the notes to stop obstacles fly to you) where he had to fight 2and having Li besides you while in (spoiler?) Dual Form and that when you went to a plant warp and that Li would be next to you.

The plant warp one is fixed in the latest patch I'm pretty sure. Not sure about the others.

Yeah, but I don't think everyone has every patch, or is the installer also updated? =o

I once had two Li in Li's cave and made a topic on it, but I was not able to reproduce the bug.

This could be a stupid question but, why is there another .exe file included in the patch? I first installed the patch by only putting the data.oo1 in the directory and all fixes work properly, even without the new .exe file.

PS: Sorry for going off-topic here  :P

Now on-topic: I still can't find the topic about the 2 Li's but as I can see here there are others who has this bug also. Too bad I don't know the trigger though that causes this bug. :-\

For one thing, I don't think I listed all the changes.

For another, did you already have 1.0.3?

Also, why weren't you extracting the exe btw.

When I extracted the .exe file and the data.oo1 to the directory I didn't backup my original .exe file so I got asked if I should replace the original .exe file with the new one and I clicked no, thinking this wasn't necessary. But from your post I guess the new exe file also adds fixes that aren't included in the data.oo1 file?

And yes I already have version 1.0.3. Does this mean I didn't have to install the patch at all?

The patch brings older versions up to 1.0.3.

Ah ok, I thought the patch was for fixing a few bugs in the 1.0.3 version also  :)
