Bugs in the zaurus port

Post by nickasdf »

Here are some bugs I have found in the zaurus port on a SL-5600

1) sundials crash game
2) leaver in bath house buccaneers den causes game to freeze, have to turn Z off and on again
3) silver serpent venom I took 4 vials at once and then my skills permanently droped to 10% of what they should be. I had 60 str 60 dex and 60 int they dropped permanently to 6
4) occasional game crash for no apparent reason.
5) sometimes when Im walking it will jam so i walk non-stop in a direction all other keys non-responsive. only way to fix is switch off and on.
6) speech is too slow and sounds like Ava....tar....kn..ow... tha..t....

3) Is that really a bug or how it's supposed to affect the person drinking it?

im not sure how its supposed to work but I doubt its supposed to permantly drop your stats. I tried everything to get them back. killed myself, sleept, got LB to heal...

funny it meant I could only carry 12 stone!

I had to use the cheat screen to hack my stats back to normal

Truth be told, I only tested Serpent Isle and I was able to finish it.

As for the random locks, where the game keeps on running but you cannot interact with it, I believe it is due to the operating system sending a message like "memory low" and you lose keyboard focus. I have looked at some Qtopia code to force focus back to Exult but I am no Qtopia expert.

One fix would be to reduce memory usage of Exult of course.
