Sorry for my late response. I checked the permission file, everything seems to be fine there. I ran a test server with this permission file and it worked as intended (members of the "admin" group were invulnerable - but of course you can still take fall damage etc).
Did you assign yourself to the admin group ("setplayergroup icon58 admin")?

Danke für die Rückmeldung, freut mich dass es soweit erstmal wieder funktioniert

It's indeed a trap I have to admit the name of this function may be misleading. Actually it is supposed to return the timestamp of the date when the player was previously online (i.e. if I play on a server on March 1st, then take a break and join the server on April 10th again, this method will return the timestamp of the 1st of March).
As you suspected, the server.getPlayer() functions only work with online player, so this method isn't accessible for offline players. I'm not sure if it makes sense to cover offline players by these methods as well (since most funtions of the Player object won't make much sense for offline players)... we'll have to think about that
The old Lua API provided a function to get some player information from the database, maybe we will add this function to the new API as well. Otherwise quering the database, as mentioned by @Machete would do the trick (actually a "getPlayerInformation()" function would do exactly the same^^)

Thanks for the error log It's indeed caused by the graphics driver of the Intel HD 4000. Your driver is dated on 2012, unfortunately the old Intel drivers had broken OpenGL support (in this particular case the graphics card reports that it does not support basic core OpenGL features [which are part of OpenGL since 2008]). Intel fixed these issues around 2014/2015 though, but sometimes laptop manufacturers don't keep their drivers up-to-date (so in this case Acer is apparently still stuck on the 2012 driver). It's a pity, especially if the laptop requires custom drivers

The only thing you could try is to manually install the latest Intel driver. This does only work in certain cases, and it may be incompatible with your system, so eventually it may be necessary to rollback to the Acer driver. Basically it's not recommendable to do this, but it's the only way to get a newer driver version: http://www.intel.com/content/w…cs-drivers/000005629.html
Otherwise there is unfortunately nothing else you could do

Currently it's not possible to add custom crosshairs. But I will put this on our list Btw., once this feature is implemented, it will probably simply use ImageInformation objects to refer to the crosshair image file (jpg, png, gif, dds)^^

Thanks for letting us know, I will check out what's going on there, I'm pretty sure this bug will be squashed with the next update

Da müsstest du dich vermutlich direkt an Miwarre (von wem die Lib stammt) wenden, er wird dir wohl am besten weiterhelfen können

Thank you very much for your kind words, I'm happy to hear that you like the game

Firstly, a simple change that i'd like to suggest is a higher reward rate in stone mining

Probably this isn't a bad idea. Well, one of the next updates introduce higher tier tools (which speed up the mining process). Once they're available, we'll tweak the whole mining process (and adjust the mining speed as well as the reward rate)

Quote from AlphaWolf777

Secondly, even though there is a lot of building blocks in the game already, I would love to see even more. Perhaps even more variants of cobblestone, stonebricks, and perhaps also a half-timber style block

Actually it is our intention to introduce more textures, however, unfortunately this has an impact on the overall performance (but there is still some room for some additional textures). Originally we also wanted to rework and replace some of the existing textures, but obviously this would cause a lot of trouble for existing worlds (so we won't touch existing textures until the game has more extensive support for texture packs [e.g. serverside texture packs]).

Quote from AlphaWolf777

Blocks with roof shingle textures of different types would be really useful.

That's true, roof textures are really missing. However, in order to avoid having flat roof textures, we first want to wait until parallax mapping is implemented. If this provides satisfying results for roof textures, they will be added, otherwise there will be probably a special roof construction element or something like that.

Quote from AlphaWolf777

Thirdly, I know it's been discussed before in one of my recent posts, but I think that the worlds should have a larger playable area

The world is indeed infinite (at least the world generation isn't restricted), but you will run into precision issues (rounding errors) sooner or later. These issues become noticeable at around 10,000 and are getting worse the further you travel (somewhere between 10,000 and 100,000 it becomes unplayable), so it's recommendable to stay within the 10,000x10,000 boundaries.
Unfortunately I have no ETA when the "real" infinite world will be finally available ( @DaBoiye: I just used my 'ETA' hotkey again :D), first we really need to get some other stuff ready (especially the new player models)

Quote from AlphaWolf777

Also, it would be one of the greatest games ever made if you could implement technology like train building tools, cars, planes, boats, airplanes etc. OMG that would be the coolest thing ever.

At least trains, cars and boats/shipts are planned It's likely that there will be also some basic aircrafts at some point (e.g. a glider, and/or a hot air balloon). Unfortunately I can't say much about planes or other aircrafts (like helicopters), maybe they will be added once the game leaves early access

Quote from AlphaWolf777

Ok, another suggestion I have, and this is the one I want the most, is rivers. Please, I beg you, we need rivers!

I'd love to add rivers, unfortunately it's quite tricky to add proper rivers to the bumpy terrain. First we need to get dynamic water ready. Actually it's also our intention to rework the terrain generation in the future, maybe rivers will be part of these changes.

Quote from AlphaWolf777

Also rideable horses would be epic.

Rideable horses (as well as camels and donkeys) are in the works. They will be added after the player models update

Quote from AlphaWolf777

And lastly, will there ever be real time shadows in the game? Hopefully that wouldn't be too hard on the graphics.

Real time shadows are definitely planned. They will have an impact on the performance of course, but there's anyway some room for optimizations. I'm pretty sure that shadows will greatly improve the overall appearance of the game^^

Sorry for my late response! Actually it looks like the item stack (apparently blocks?) was broken, or more precisely, contained some invalid data (so the game was unable to render it) Maybe something got messed up internally, unfortunately it's difficult to say what happened exactly... do you play in fullscreen mode, or is the "undecorated" borderless mode active instead? If you're using the regular fullscreen mode, there is a chance that something got messed up by tabbing out of the game (although I never saw such an issue caused by alt tabbing)... have you been able to reproduce this issue?

@red51 Existiert irgendwo eine Liste mit "Spielsounds" ? komme ich per API oder Datenbank Abfrage an diese Liste ran ?

Es gibt leider keine Fkt. um alle Sounds auszugeben, wir müssen aber mal eine Liste ins Javadoc packen Anbei eine unsortierte Übersicht aller Sounds (dürften selbsterklärend sein, manche Sounds können aber ggf. nicht ohne Weiteres abgespielt werden).

Thanks for the log! The game uses the GTX 1080, so it must be a driver issue. Glad to hear it works now after updating the driver, please let me know if you run into the same error again in the future

Also das Spiel sollte unter keinen Umständen solche Erdstücke einfach so generieren (oder regenerieren). Sowas kann eigentlich nur auftreten, wenn entweder jemand bewusst (oder unbewusst) Erde dort platziert hat, oder wenn die Welt nicht vernünftig abgespeichert werden kann (wobei in dem Fall müsste der Fehler bereits kurz nach dem Abbauen der entsprechenden Stellen auftreten [nach dem nächsten Restart])

Please have a look for the "errorlog" file in your game directory (to get there, rightclick on rw in steam -> properties -> local files -> browse local files), as mentioned by @Minotorious in his first post

Basically this error indicates that instancing isn't supported by the video hardware. Since instancing is a core feature in OpenGL since 2009 (and since a Geforce GTX 1080 definitely supports this feature), there are only possible reasons why this error occurred:

• Eventually the current driver is buggy. Nvidia usually provides an outstanding driver quality, however, there is always a chance that a certain driver suffers from bugs, especially when it comes to OpenGL. I'd recommend to go to the Nvidia homepage and download and install the latest driver: http://www.nvidia.com/download…Results.aspx/118514/en-us
• The game does not use the GTX 1080, instead it uses an integrated graphics adapter which has a very old driver. According to the error message there is no integrated graphics adapter available, but according to the Intel specifications, the i7 6700K has an integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 adapter. The old Intel drivers are known to have broken OpenGL support, but it's strange that even Windows isn't aware of this graphics adapter. The errorlog would provide further details about this issue.

So I'd recommend to update the Nvidia driver first (see 1). If the game still crashes, please have a look for the "errorlog" file in your game directory (either upload it here, or send it via email to support@jiw-games.net, or alternatively open it with a texteditor, copy the content and paste it here)

Hi, sorry, hatte deinen anderen Post im Newsbeitrag leider übersehen
Jedenfalls ist es momentan nicht so, dass nach oder während des Regens Schlammflecken entstehen. Zwar ändern sich tatsächlich die Laufgeräusche etwas ab (und klingen insgesamt mehr nach feuchtem Boden), allerdings wird die Welt selbst nicht beeinflusst.
Standardmäßig kommt Schlamm momentan nur in Schneebiomen sowie um manche Teiche herum vor, an anderen Stellen kann es eigentlich nur auftreten, wenn es vom Spieler dort platziert wurde.
Wenn sich die Welt von alleine verändert und abgebaute Stellen später erneut wiederkehren deutet das eher darauf hin, dass mit der Speicherung der Welt etwas nicht richtig funktioniert. Spielst du im Singleplayer oder Multiplayer? Bei Multiplayerservern ist es sehr wichtig, dass diese nach spätestens 24 Stunden neugestartet werden, sonst können solche Probleme auftreten. Im Singleplayer hingegen ist es wichtig, darauf zu achten, dass kein Antivirenprogramm dazwischenfunkt (manche Programme führen RW bspw. in einer Sandbox aus, wodurch der Zugriff auf die Festplatte stark eingeschränkt wird).

I've posted a reply about that matter here: Password reset mail never arrives
Please keep in mind that the homepage and the forums use different account.
We can remove the other accounts you have in the forum, I found "Graysilk" (last login was on 9th of May), "Graysilk1" (last login on 4th of May) and "Graysilk13" (the one you're currently using). Which one do you want to keep?

Hmm... this sounds like a really strange issue What do you mean with "no personal plug-ins added to your account"? Did this happen in singleplayer or multiplayer? What do you mean with "clicking all over the top area of the press"? Usually a single click once the hand icon appears is sufficient to move the press down/up.
As @Minotorious said, a video would be really helpful

Just telling you this so you know that If my new account here does not go thru again, I may be unable see the answer ....for awhile.

As @Minotorious mentioned, you can always see the answer, even if you're not logged in. You're also able to post replies as a guest (although these posts need to be activated by a moderator manually, so it may take some time until the post will be visible to the public).

Quote from Graysilk13

When I went back in with Graysilk, I logged into the main page. no problems, my name was up in the upper corner of site.
Then I clicked into the forums and was told I had to login again. I did that.

Please keep in mind that the homepage and the forums use different accounts. Originally we wanted to merge the accounts, but some people felt uncomfortable with that (they don't wanted to have a forum account automatically while creating an account for the game), that's why your forum account isn't related to your homepage/game account.
But of course you could set the same password for both accounts

Quote from Graysilk13

One time I asked you (using my second acct.) if you could maybe delete all of the other accounts and let me start again. You did not, but you did set the password I think so I could access my acct.

Hmm... usually we always remove accounts once requested When did you send the request? Did you send it via email or via PM? Is it a homepage account, or a forum account? If you still want us to delete one of your account, just send us an email to support@jiw-games.net containing your username (please send this mail from the same email address that was used when creating the account).

Quote from DanielCoffey

Would you expect the "Undecorated" fullscreen mode to still show the bottom toolbar?

The game will run "always on top", so the toolbar isn't supposed to be visible. However, on some distros it may be necessary to hide the toolbar manually.

Sorry for my late response. We had some server issues a few days ago, but that should be solved now. Please check out if you receive the mail now. If this still does not work, please send us an email to support@jiw-games.net and tell us your username and your email address

Basically a "Connection reset" (the error you're getting) means that the connection has been terminated unexpectedly. This may have various reasons, but usually it's caused by:

• Antivirus programs or firewalls which interfere with the connection. What antivirus program do you use exactly? Make sure to put the game on the exception list of your av program/firewall
• Unstable internet connection, especially when using WLAN or DLAN. Small connection interrupts may cause a connection reset
• ISP terminating the connection for unknown reasons. This seems to happen only with cable internet and mobile internet (it didn't occur with DSL yet). Usually the connection reset occurs after a given amount of time, e.g. after exactly 5 or 10 minutes

In the latter case it seems to be related to the route your connection to the internet takes. One of the nodes in between closes the connection purposely (for unknown reasons), resulting in a connection reset error. In this case you could try to use a VPN service like "Cyberghost" for example. This forces your pakets taking a different route through the internet, and it's likely that the problematic node will be skipped. However, this only works if you get the connection reset always after exactly 5 or 10 minutes.
