I do that...I mean the tabs will light up and shine red, and I will click on them and nothing will be there. When I go back to 'ALL,' it's still the first two lines I ever get in the game.

That is very strange. I am not sure on what else could be done, just report it as a bug and hope that an update build of zOMG resolves the issue.

The chat works through GIM, which I believe uses something through AOL. It looks like you have an AOL messenger running at the same time. Could that be causing the problem? I wouldn't think so, and I don't have the service to check, but it might be somehow overriding GIM?

Or, if this error only occurs in Firefox, could there be an extension that's blocking something vital? Sometimes if a program or page won't work for me, I temporarily turn off extensions to see if they're the cause.

If nothing else, have you tried closing the chat panel? It then puts chat in a little transparent box at the bottom corner of the game screen, which I find really annoying, but if it let you see chat, it could be worth it.

I don't know if any of that will be helpful, but I thought I'd throw it out there, anyway. sweatdrop

[GamesTesterJan]

Yeah it could be caused by an external version of AIM running at the same time which may cause a conflict. Good theory Da Flea, I don't use AIM at all or ever again but if you have it try not to sign on and then play zOMG.

Try checking your not blocking the GIM clan chat NPC also if it's blocked sometimes it causes problems for some members.

[Kayla Miniko]

Yeah, it's only a Firefox problem, and yes, I do have on AIM constantly.
Huh, I'll try the extension thing you mentioned. How do you do that?
And I think the little transparent box works, but I haven't tried it in a while.

[DarklingWitch]

thanks for putting that up... i think it's helping.

I wanted to add in case someone has had problems dealing with the Organize Inventory function ...
The Tips listed on the third post seem to have helped out...

Awesome That you put this out here for others

In the Tools menu, click Add-ons and it should give you a box with all the ones you have. You can click them individually and disable them or go through that Tools menu to disable all. You'll have to restart Firefox for it to take effect.

Q if there is an incorrectly added Type ...

For reference: network.http.pipelining.firstrequest set as String instead of boolean
How can you get it changed to correct Type...?
Ty in advance...

Great stuff, I still experience a few inventory arranger bugs but perhaps not as much as others, I do have over 3000 Kurogane's Masks in there lol.

I have already added this one to the FAQ. It's quite easy just highlight it and click reset it will delete the command then you can create the correct one. If it's an edited setting it just resets to it's default configuration.

FAQ

1. Q - I am worried that if I make a mistake doing the pipeline I can't change it back to it's original default settings
A - I made it very easy to follow in step by step instructions and if something goes wrong like a user error for example it is easy to reset the options to their default settings. Just back track on the steps, click the integer or bolean and right click to access the options, there is an option to "reset" this sets it to default and if it's a new command created by the user the "reset" option deletes it.

I should have added that I Tried those options to make it reset, and it would not...
I am going to restart browser and check it again...
Thanks for your response as well...

EDITIt took three times before "network.http.pipelining.firstrequest" no longer showed up... and I could re enter it correctly.... also may have been the clearing of cache that finally made go away so all is as it should be now...... YaY

Sorry for the late reply, busy with clan stuff and in the middle of cooking some breakfast. That's a really strange issue which I have not experienced before. Perhaps I'll add a tip to clear the cache before doing the tutorial or if your about to reset integer/bolean values to their default settings etc to avoid conflict issues.

How are you finding your loading and zOMG now?

The second pipeline...

Just how "unsafe" is it? And does it take any more RAM/CPU, and if so, how much more?

The second pipeline has been user tested and works just fine. So far out to everyone who has tried it only two people said the first pipeline worked better for them.

I cannot tell you the significant usage of cpu process or ram since it would vary on different PC's just give it a go and see if it works for you. If you want to use the first pipeline then backtrack and reset the options to their default settings.

So far, it seems pipelining has worked for me. Both the first and the second. I am new to Firefox though. When I first did the pipelining, I did not do the Adblock or Noscript feature you mention. Still, things worked out normally on the computer and the first pipelining seemed to work out well enough.

I added Noscript and Adblock and now I notice that when I go to my Avatar Customization screen, my avatar looks a bit wider, and its blurred all around the edges. I took off both of those features and there was still no change. After adding the second pipelining tutorial, I re-checked it and it still hasn't changed.

I thought if I could Zoom out, using Firefox's Zoom In/Zoom Out feature, it would fix it, but no matter how far I zoom out, and how small my avatar gets, the lines are still fuzzy. I like seeing more detail in my avatar customization. I have no problem seeing my avatar in the top corner whenever I browse Gaia, but only there for some reason. Any ideas why? Its not a serious issue or anything, but it is something, that if it is fixable, I would like it fixed. I still haven't been able to determine if its just on Gaia that I experience that problem either.

As for zOMG, it works fine. Whenever I fight Endboss with a crew though, lag kills me.
