Subject says it all. I discovered that some time in the past the ability to see the minstrel glow effect went away. I thought it a bit odd that I saw nobody using that stance, now I know. So, I did some experiments:
Tests:
(home server Landroval, test server Laurelin, guest server Bullroarer, both computers are older laptops that have been playing LOTRO for 3 years)
To make sure it still wasn't something I was doing, I deleted all things related to plugins for that server and account. The only result I got was time spent reconfiguring the plugins.
So it seems to be just my main account for Landroval.
So... I've web searched, I've forum searched, I've asked in GLFF (on my server that is 150-200 players during normal hours) but not even an "I dunno" out of any of the lot of them. Ideas? I am certain it is will be likely the characters on that server and account. If I had another slot I would make another mini to see if that one was broken and thus narrow it to just one character or not. No TP for a slot. I am considering transferring her to another server to see if it works there and then back again in the hope it would flush out the problem. Again, I don't have that much TP. Everything else seems to work, glowing hands are for theatrics anyway. I used to trouble shoot computer and network related problems, this is driving me crazy. There is the small voice in my mind that says, "if this isn't working what else might not be working?" I wish I had the money (thus TP) to just keep messing with it, but I come here hoping someone else might have a clue what to do next.
What started this whole mess is that I am in a band and for a concert we were going to play with glowing hands. The leader decided that since I couldn't see the hands only he would have them glowing (guess I got out of that) Concert is May 16th (2014) Landroval if anyone wants to come, I will be one of the minis without glowing hands whether I can see them or not. :rolleyes:
Tests:
(home server Landroval, test server Laurelin, guest server Bullroarer, both computers are older laptops that have been playing LOTRO for 3 years)
- used Laurelin, main account, main computer - worked
- used Laurelin, main account, different computer - worked
- used Landroval, F2P account, main computer - worked
- used Landroval, F2P account, different computer - worked
- used Landroval, main account, main computer (original problem) - does not work
- used Landroval, main account, different computer - DID NOT WORK
- used Bullroarer, all accounts, all computers - worked (remembering that the mini on Bull is a copy of the one on Landy I was going back to make sure it worked and found that Bull is closed now, but I do remember the F2P account mini hand glow worked)
To make sure it still wasn't something I was doing, I deleted all things related to plugins for that server and account. The only result I got was time spent reconfiguring the plugins.
