possibly an animation bug

[mepuri]

hi guys... *wave
new to the forum, but already play AT (on and off) since..uhmm..forever

well..i recently changed phone to s3 and when i played AT..i found that at a time when i entered a map..i saw npcs everywhere but then suddenly pufff...they are gone..no npc at all i've experienced this about 3 times, once in the vilegard, once in the wolf cave and once in the gargoyle cave.

is it a bug?



note: i hope you can understand my post since i'm not very good in english...

Welcome to the forums!
That's certainly a bug if all npcs are gone on a map.

Could you please explain when the bug appears?
If you leave the map, and come after three minutes or a rest, does the problem still appear?
Did that happen on both of your phones?

thanks

pheww..and here i thought it is because me being smelly and sweaty after slaying those monsters

Could you please explain when the bug appears?

well, it just happened...i don't know what caused it. what i remembered was that the first time this bug occurred was when i was in vilegard, talking to the priest and when i walked out the building, i tried to speak with one of the villager (the dancer lady) and after i spoke to her, the npcs are all gone.

the second time, when i was in the wolf cave, after i slayed all the monsters in the cave and walked to the forest (still in the cave area) and i want to slayed those cute little monsters, suddenly they were gone.

the third time, was pretty much the same with the wolf cave.

If you leave the map, and come after three minutes or a rest, does the problem still appear?

nope...it is back to normal.
but if i stay on that map and go to main menu and back again, the npc still missing, or if i go to other map and back again (but not waited for 3 minutes though) they are still gone.

Did that happen on both of your phones?

i currently only using my s3... i never experienced this bug with my old one..but it was long time ago since i played AT in my motorola phone.

Thank you for your explanations! I'll bring that up at the project meeting.
It seems always to happen after a combat/conversation interaction.
Thank you for reporting this one! It's great to have such people like you!

-Are all NPCs missing after the bug? (not just the monsters/beasts)

nope...it is back to normal.
but if i stay on that map and go to main menu and back again, the npc still missing, or if i go to other map and back again (but not waited for 3 minutes though) they are still gone.

-When leaving Map A onto Map B it takes 3 minutes for the NPCs to respawn on Map A (time while in menues or battle doesn't coun't)
