game locked up due to double wizard killing

#1 Post by celvis » Mon Dec 23, 2002 1:32 am

I was in the wizard cave (the one you access by using the magic carpet), when the wizard arrived and killed me turning me into a frog. The restore/restart windows appeared, but then the popup about "hearing footsteps" appearing again, the restore/restart windows turned gray and then there was no way to get out of this lock up situation, I had to kill the program.<br><br>I thought maybe this info could be useful ;-)<br><br> <p></p><i></i>

Ok, I think I've fixed this now. Out of curiosity, this doesn't happen every time he kills you in the cave, does it? <br><br>Also, was there any period of time where you could click the buttons on the restore/restart/quit, before they blanked out? Or were they blanked out from the moment the window appeared. <p></p><i></i>

it only occured when he turn me into a frog, once I had been turned into a pig, and the problem did not occured, but at that time I was using version 1.0 I think<br><br>I think I could have clicked on the buttons restore/restart/quit before it blanked out, but only for a very short time ( about 1 to 2 seconds, but at that time, I was not that in a hurry to restore ! LOL)<br>if I remember correctly, it blanked out as soon as the textual popup appeared, and this window appears just a few second after the special musique starts (that must be the time when I could have pressed the buttons)<br><br>I hope this will help<br><br>PS: I'm getting interested in the AGS engine, looking thouroughly about it <p></p><i></i>
