The demo is on our website

[annalise]

ive installed the lite version and have being going through the settings setting it up, i was adding the new starter monster, when i got this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function imagecreatefrompng() in /home/******/public_html/forum/dbtech/forumon/includes/class_image.php on line 383

how to fix this, using vb 4.1.1

[DragonByte Tech]

You need the GD library installed on your server, please contact your web host and see if they can activate / install it for you


Fillip

[annalise]

ok thankyou for your response, ill get that sorted

[Zohhak]

Hi Fillip,

first of all thanks for the mod. Some of my mates are really into it and try to do a nice game
But when they tried to add a Move as Buff, they figured out, that its not saved properly. Its always resettet to Attack. Maybe its missing at the current version?
Hopefully you can help.

Best Regards
Zohhak

[DragonByte Tech]

I don't believe it's been properly implemented for Moves yet - only Items can currently function as buffs.

We will correct this and properly allow Moves to also be Buffs in the next feature version

Hi, i just noticed setting this up none of the modules are aligned, and they don't sit too well
