Keeps turning twirling in circles

[TrueCrusader]

One bug I found is that, if you click walk to early in the intro Graham will be stuck in a spinning loop, It looks like he gets stuck to tehguards or something.

After pressing the feet icon a couple of feet away from my charachter, he keeps twirling in circles and moving nowhere!

You've found the spinning bug!

This problem existed with the VU demo as well, and we were trying to solve it for almost a year.

I applied the bug fix to Adventure Graham (the one wearing the traditional red & blue), but Birthday Graham might not have the same fix.  Hmmm...

i have this same problem right at the start of the game when graham is standing outside the door with the guards on either side. As soon as i click the feet somewheere he just starts spinning. Very frustrating.

Actually, that's also a tribute to the old spinning eggs LN made.

Ok, by the sounds of it, the bug only appears with Birthday Graham (the first one that appears in-game).  Has anyone experienced this bug with Adventure Graham yet?

LMAO!

¡Hola!

Yo tenía el mismo problema que tú y lo acabo de resolver cambiando la pantalla a 32 bits y haciendo coincidir la resolución que yo tengo en mi PC con la de la demo.

Haz ésto:

- Options/Bit Deth=32
- Options/Resolution 1280x1024

See you!

This issue has now been resolved and will be patched in TSL Public RC1 Patch v.1.0, which will be released tomorrow.

While I thought this bug was resolved by adding an Eye node to Graham's model, it turns out it's still there.

Note to self & Programming Dept:
I've experienced it a few times in the Main Hall, but something to note is once I had it during the Graham cloth changing sequence (meaning he was able to teleport out of it automatically).  Upon opening the console log, there were plenty of Walk Trigger errors, meaning somehow the walkgraph for that scene got deleted in memory, resulting in Graham not knowing where to walk.

I was able to spin him to the door , and once the Main Hall set loaded (MainHall set loading code was missing from Patch 1.0.1 and earlier), the spinning bug vanished and Graham walked as normal.  So, it clearly has to do with the scene walk graph somehow disappearing from memory.

I know the 'spinning Graham' issue was supposed to be resolved on the first patch, but this looks like a whole new version of it
After entering Graham's room, I clicked the hand icon on the door again (to check if it really opens the wrong way) before I got Graham dressed. Graham did a couple of spins, but then the 'open door' animation kicked in, and he opened the door and exited properly. However, he seem to have developed a taste for spinning, since that moment on he kept on at it, in almost every action! he spinned before opening the door and re-entering the room, he spinned behind the curtain while getting dressed, he spinned through the main hall, he spinned when opening the main doors and stepping out... the funniest was in the garden and the main hall, when he span right into the scenery (see attached picture).

I guess he just wants to roam free and have fun. 

[Storm]

It looked more like he wanted to wear a dress and visit Turkey

[TribeHasSpoken]

Why do you assume this is a bug? Don't you remember when Superman [spoiler]spun like a drill into the ground to reach Lex Luthor's subterranian lair?[/spoiler]

[Storm]

No, I don't. Thanks for spoiling that for me

[Yonkey]

*adds spoiler tags* They're not just for the Hints forum, ya know.

Anyway, yeah I noticed the spinning bug was still there, but it has now been fixed permanently in Patch v.3.0.  I'm also working on a hotkey that will reload any scene, just in case it crashes or something.
