The dungeon shake

[Achile Dragon]

In Serpent's Isle with the recent snapshot, when i'm in dungeon and I move with my mouse, the screen shake and when I'm onworld the screen dosen't shake.

Strange bug

[Madoc]

Hey, when You move Your house, it's no wonder that Your screen shakes! One should be very careful when moving one's house. You better leave it in place. Or, when You HAVE to move it, turn off Your computer before.

?

[Achile Dragon]

I mean not the screen physically, but the in-game screen

[drcode]

Are there any cyclops nearby? They cause earthquakes in the game. But it shouldn't matter whether you're moving the mouse, so maybe there's a bug.

[Achile Dragon]

Non cyclops in Serpent isle (except in the knight test) . Anyway, is when I move the mouse diagonaly that happen

[Achile Dragon]

It begin to be worse. Now when I get out of every dungeon (in mountain in example), it made the same behavior that in the underground. The game is unplayable

It's like the avatar and al. have been double (kind of specter) when it move diagonaly. It's like when you pinch a rubberband.

I forgot to says that I have the most recent snapshot installed and with SI Fixes

I don't know if it have the same behaviour without the fixes

[Achile Dragon]

I find the cause. It's the Infravision cheat

[marzo]

I find the cause. It's the Infravision cheat

With that, I finally managed to reproduce it. It will be fixed next snapshot.

[drcode]

Has it been there all along? I use Infravision (sp?) fairly often, but haven't noticed any problems recently.

[marzo]

Has it been there all along?

No, it has been added fairly recently -- when I was implementing the new weather effects, actually (or rather, the smooth transitions for dawn/dusk).
