Title: Languages
Post by: TheWastesAreFrozen on September 29, 2009, 08:11:28 AM
Character - Kethra Marsk

Lately there has been a lot of language things popping up, for my character it's Thieves cant, for others it's been Elven and I think one was Halfling.

It seems to trigger off of common emote symbols. Not sure if we should just ignore this or if it will cause problems eventually.

Not quite sure what you mean. Language things?

This happens because the DMFI Language scripts were not completely removed.

I've told exilestrife about the issue already.

It is being caused by the NPC called "A voice" which a DM is spawning. Whenever it hears text prefixed by '[' it will trigger the language script.

do a search in the script "dmfi_execute" for '[' and replace it with some nonsense like "*&^%^", which will effectively break this part of the script and stop this problem.

I'll screenshot it next time but basically it will say something like:

[Kethra Marsk says in Thieves' Cant] "Blah blah blah" <- That being some random part of what my character had spoken.

What was said still appears fine in the chat window so it's not a big deal right now, just wanted to let you all know so it doesn't get worse and start actually using languages. (A horrible idea)

This has happened to me before, my emotes would turn into random letters without brackets, and in the combat log it would show my emote and said that I said that in halfling. Though apparently when I asked others they didn't see me say anything for some reason.
