@Cattle Prod Reno and Amon Larethian - I have a feeling saving is down again. This issue usualy goes away after a couple of days.

Boxed Lunch, I have not been able to get the house saving to work since I placed my house in towns. I've posted twice in the bug report thread they reccommend in the Gaia Homes forum, to post in, but it still won't save (posted my specs Here in the Bug Reports & Tech Support forum) sad Is there a way or a work around to actually get the saving to work? Thanks in advance.

Edited to add: I can now dump bugs and trash biggrin

I just wanted to say that this thread along with the B.U.G thread is very helpful & I really appreciate all the hard work put into them both. I'm frequently checking this one to see what's going on with glitches and bugs, so thanks!

@Sakura_Chan21 - yes that is a current glitch and more information on it can be found in the Q&A Announcement: Gaia Problems. Since it is not part of towns I am not adding it to the glitch list. There is no known work around at this time other than buying the item from the Gaia Marketplace

There is a zipcode marked undefined.... It's glitching the entire towns game. I can't go to any towns anymore. If you pull up the world map and go down several times, it gives you the following image:


What browser are you using?
Firefox, latest version.
What Operating System are you using? (Windows XP, Windows 98, etc.)
Windows XP with Service Pack 2
Do you have a Firewall/security system? (If so please list any and all!)
Running behind wireless router and Norton Internet Security.
How long has this been going on?
Just today.
Has Towns ever worked properly before now?
Yes, to the best of my knowledge. I only joined a few days ago.
Does it happen all the time or is there a pattern to it?
It's happened a few times in a row now.... I can't really see any patterns. It's pretty consistent.
Will Towns work properly with a different computer?
I don't have access to another computer, sorry!
Anything else we should be aware of?
I'm running on a wireless network which sometimes randomly screws stuff up. It could be that my internet just isn't loading the new data at the bottom of the world map. It doesn't seem like the error goes away, though, so that's unlikely.

Ever since I got my parasol, when I walk, you can see my butt in the towns, and I'm not talking my undies. o-o; Rigfht after I got the Parasol, so yeah.

Whenever I am in a house and someone else enters, we both crash, in a way. I get a message from Macromedia Flash saying something about a script slowing down and If I choose to elt it continue my computer may ebcome unresponsive. Not sure if it's just my computer and connection, but I know a bunch of High Speed Internet Users with good computers that have the same problem.

What browser are you using?
Internet Explorer, latest.

What Operating System are you using? (Windows XP, Windows 98, etc.)
Windows XP.

Do you have a Firewall/security system? (If so please list any and all!)
Not entirely sure, I know I have Norton Antivirus Firewall.

How long has this been going on?
Since I started a few days ago.

Has Towns ever worked properly before now?
No.

Does it happen all the time or is there a pattern to it?
Always, so far.

Will Towns work properly with a different computer?
No.(No other computr to look at)

Anything else we should be aware of?
No.

[Sarinilli]

Did you try everything posted above? I did everything possible, yes.
What exactly is wrong? I'm just reporting that Towns isn't updating homes again. I cleared everything and re-did my home but the wall items are still locked in their old positions when I enter my house through towns.
What browser are you using? I've experienced this in both Internet Explorer 6.0 and Firefox 1.5.
What Operating System are you using? Windows XP Home
Do you have a Firewall/security system? Only WinXP Home's default firewall, but as I'm not the only one experiencing this, I doubt that has a thing to do with it. lol
How long has this been going on? About two days, that I know of.
Has Towns ever worked properly before now? Yes, but this glitch has happened before.
Does it happen all the time or is there a pattern to it? I haven't noticed a pattern.
Will Towns work properly with a different computer? I haven't been able to find out personally but I'm under the impression this is just another random thing, hitting only certain computers/users.
Anything else we should be aware of? Just thought I'd make mention of this happening again, that's all. ^_^;

Not sure if anyone has suggested this already, but I noticed one of the issues on the first page of this thread is being locked out of your house if you select it to be locked to friends only.

Will adding yourself to your own friends list fix that, at least for now, until that portion of the code is refined?
