Title: Sandstorms
Post by: ScottyLeon on December 30, 2011, 06:27:07 pm
I really enjoy the FH+, but when I first encountered the sandstorm, my friend got a bad headache and me too. And I didn't find any way to toggle the sandstorm off, and it continued for a long time. Makers haven't really thought about people who have some epileptic disease...
I was told that I should leave the map if I don't like it, but I was in middle of roleplay when it started, and I didn't want to leave, but when I was about to throw up, I had to quit playing... :(

wow, I honestly thought you were being dramatic, but then I experienced an identical sensation pretty quick off as well. My head was pounding after a couple minutes.

The sandstorm effect is nice though, but it needs to be thinned out and not last so long. I had to leave the map before I could explore, and I really didn't want to look around with only 2 feet visibility anyways.

I've only seen sandstorms in Endless Plains...but Simba said they last up to 3 in game days, which is way too long. Can't even see the map anymore.

endless plains isn't even made of sand! (or is it? because i can't see the true terrain masks of maps :3) anyway 3 in game days lasts like what 1 and a half hours? thats way too long -,-

I had a talk with Simba, he(or she, I dunno.) said that he'll shorten it to half. I said that it should be shortened even more than that, my friend threw up because of that sandstorm! Anyhow, he also told that you can delete the effects of sandstorm; Go to FH+, then to media and then to sky, then delete all files that say "sand" in it. (I know messing with the files is against the rules, but Simba gave me a permission to do so. Fair enough. ) I haven't tried it yet though. I really hope the next update will be here soon and they make the on/off button in the game.

Gracious, I had no idea about this. I should probably go and see if I get the same reaction. Endless Plains, is it?

Yup, and now I encountered another problem; I have to redownload the game everytime I quit it, otherwise it won't work anymore. It's like...a signle-use installation. That means I can't delete those sand files. But I found a way to run from it; go underwater and the storm won't show.

Just wanted to say, messing the files like that is not against the rules, using it to your advantage is XD Or creating your own completely new version can get you in trouble too, so Don't worry about getting in trouble for doing this XD

Simba has spoken to me about this. xD;

He said he's going to shorten it in the next update. It occurs every three days, it doesn't /last/ for three days.

Try reinstalling it, but don't put a '+' in the file name. Set all your characters up so their home is bonfire, temple, or cape. and then every time you've finished playing on FH+ send the character 'home'! XD
