Kyphis the Bard Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Browser FF 26.0; OS Windows 7. I have been getting this issue for a long time (about six months), and a few other people have mentioned it. I've been trying to figure out what causes it, but I have had zero luck. For some reason, when casting acousticremains, it commonly fails to launch the popup window. It consumes heat and spell casts, as well as reporting it as successful in chat, but the window doesn't turn up. Casting the spell multiple times often gets it to work, this is with doing nothing but releasing heat from the erolin device and typing in chat, no other changes are made or programs running in the background changed. Waiting for extended periods of time also does nothing. Any clues as to how to fix this? It's driving me mad, and I don't really need to go further down that rabbit hole.

dst Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 It has nothing to do with the OS. It's a really old bug. I had it on XP and on Vista. Kyphis the Bard and MRAlyon 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Chewett Posted February 25, 2014 Root Admin Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I have tried this and found every time it didnt work, it was a popup blocker issue. Can someone produce some steps/browser that they can reproduce it nicely for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dst Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 It seems it randomly happens. I don't have popup blockers on MD but I still get it from time to time. Especially on FF.

Rophs Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 (edited) It's extremely rare. I had about 9 successful casts of acousticremains before I had the unsuccessful two casts, but it hasn't happened to me since because (now) I ALWAYS refresh the page before casting it.

BFH Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Chew maybe with a small javascript code it could open in a new tab instead of a pop up. The browser will still probably ask permission but at least will be more visible than pop ups message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rophs Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I am about 70% sure I know how to repeat the bug. Cast acousticremains, it should work the first time Close out of the popup opened by acousticremains Cast acousticremains again, it should NOT work Refresh the tab with layout.php open in it Cast acousticremains again, it should work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
