Daggerfall Workshop Forums

The below is a consolidation of all the annotations I have made on theJF series of DFU videos. The annotations are not proper bug reports but rather a documentation of a typical user experience. It's easy to forget that users who are not as familiar with DFU as some of you more diehard participants and fans, will experience the particular quirks of the game in a different way. If in the course of noting these issues I have missed something make a comment and I will add it.

I'd be remiss if I did not thank theJF for all his hard work creating these videos.

Note: Many of the fixes for these things may be already implemented and are just here for completeness

My suggestion is a sort of auto-complete where locations are cached based on recently visited places, quest locations, discovered maps, etc. The left and right arrows could be used to cycle through locations.

Daggerfall Unity (w/Mods) Part 15 theJF

Please hold while DFU builds the world https://youtu.be/No-7jP4dQa4?t=199

I will be working on updating this font (in fact I already started). https://youtu.be/aW_BHCpEjnA?t=73

Word of a completed quest was slightly exaggerated https://youtu.be/aW_BHCpEjnA?t=272

The elf with immunity to paralysis is again paralyzed https://youtu.be/aW_BHCpEjnA?t=1082

Slowfall prevents jumping https://youtu.be/aW_BHCpEjnA?t=2046

Difficult to kill monsters in cages https://youtu.be/aW_BHCpEjnA?t=2157

Wouldn’t it be nice if these major quests with big reveals did not repeat https://youtu.be/aW_BHCpEjnA?t=2443

Daggerfall Unity (w/Mods) Part 17 theJF

What a nice font and that’s Jay Hova https://youtu.be/3_m_NH0Fydw?t=295
You’ll notice that the period looks like a dash because DFU does not preserve character proportions The purpose is of course to match the native font

WAR Mashes LOL!!! https://youtu.be/3_m_NH0Fydw?t=501

MOBs change weapons instantly while the PC must wait. https://youtu.be/3_m_NH0Fydw?t=1520

Shield materials are irrelevant https://youtu.be/3_m_NH0Fydw?t=1567

I've noticed the helmet thing, wasn't sure if that was just part of the game. Same goes for shields then too I suppose?
Also the map bug with names disappearing can sometimes be solved by rotating the map.
When using the Handpainted model mod, the beds do clip through the wall.
Floating torches I've experienced multiple times in dungeons.
I havn't had the treasure piles all the same bug, but a few people as of recent have mentioned it.

Disappears again later after the quest is done

this is an interesting one - hope we will be able to find a way to make this issue reproduceable.
disappering after the quest is intended behavior since the name of a residence can be different for next quest, so as soon as quest is finished it gets removed from the map on purpose.

I had never noticed this.

I would prefer if these were confined to a single topic, rather than split across several. I'll merge these together soon.

I do appreciate taking the time to collate these. While many of these are game data, mod related, or bugs that have already been resolved, it's handy to have them in one place for future reference.

The "giant menu" bug from part 9 wil besorted in next release, the pull request has been already merged to the main release. So I think its safe to remove that... this kind of bug was dealt with many times be4 by Lacus .)
