Posted Dec 14, 2012I get no errors when I log in. I have all the sub systems enabled.
I did find a problem with GroupSay portion. It was easy to fix.
There are new channels for instance and raid and both were listed as "/i" and "/ra" respecively... they should be "/i " and "/ra " (note the additoinal space) so when you do /gr and type hello it does this "/i Hello" instead of "/iHello"

Posted Dec 13, 2012I dont really understand what it does, should be something about channel colours. If you comment out lines from 59 to 64 in file ChannelColors.lua, error would not appear. Everything seems to be working.
Waiting for a REAL update...

Posted Dec 6, 2012I got all sorts of login errors with 1.4.0 but they all disappeared when I went back to 1.3.5
