Problem with newest version? (Games : Vox : Forum : Help and Support : Problem with newest version?) Locked

Hey, I bought the game after all, but I've encountered a couple very annoying and strange errors I haven't seen in any gameplay videos or forum reports.

-Music loops queue up and play together (i.e. I walk into a town and town music starts playing then walk into a house and another track starts playing alongside the town music, and then if I walk out of the town into the desert or plains etc. that track starts playing with the others and it all rapes my ears :()

-Objects such as grass and desert steer skulls float in the air, also the entire starting town disappears partially or completely.

-Not sure if the other world modes haven't been implemented yet or what but right now only medium world size is available for selection.

-I have a small issue where if I zoom the camera out a bit past a certain point it locks up and won't move until I zoom back in.

-Can't delete creation templates for items or characters, causing clutter.

Just thought I'd mention these issues in case there's a fix or if it'll be patched soon. These errors make the game all but unplayable. The game has some great atmosphere and charm (love the nods to Zelda) despite it's glaring alpha blemishes, though.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback here are some responses:

* The music loop problem was actually a bug with the town audio and I have fixed this, you will get the fix for this in the new version.

* I have disabled other world sizes for the moment to focus on some features while implementing them it will reduce the bugs/problems if I don't allow large/infinite worlds.

* When you zoom the camera all the way out you will notice it goes into an automatic camera rotation mode... i.e you don't need to use the mouse to rotate the camera. It follows the player and rotate dynamically depending on where you are moving. i.e Like a 3d Zelda game

* I will be adding a way to delete custom creations soon, at the moment you have no way to delete these files from within the game.

Cheers for the feedback and also for the support of the game at this early alpha stage! :)

Thanks for the response, I look forward to the fixes!

Also I thought it was worth mentioning that I installed the game on another PC running Windows Vista 32-bit (my main PC runs Win 7 64-bit), and on that other PC I didn't seem to experience the aforementioned errors(of course the hardware is also vastly different between the PCs so that could play a part as well I suppose). I think either something may be wrong with my PC or that the game may have issues with certain PC builds/configurations. I'll wait for the next update and see if it clears up my errors.

Thanks again!
