For anybody who has seen Spartak or Nireda glitch up all of a sudden while in the forest randomly, it its because of my computer. Or the game, I don't know. But when this happens, the deer may disappear right afterwards or stay there, not moving a muscle, and then disappear. And if someone rubs my deer, and in the game I don't rub back, it is because one or more of my buttons are broken: rub another deer, rub a tree, sniff another deer, and skip button are all broken. But I still know who you are, and my bow button is not broken. I will just press the sad button when I am about to leave or have glitching problems, which I have frequently now. This is strange because my game used to work perfectly....

thank you for understanding,
~Spartak

Well, dang. That's no good.

Well, dang. That's no good. Sorry to hear that your computer/game is on the fritz.
Just checking, but you're not hitting the F10 button, are you? That button freezes your game immediately.

And I also forgot to mention that I switch deer to help hold back the glitch longer, but sometimes it doesn't work. :/

Really? Hitting F10 will

Really? Hitting F10 will freeze the game? I've never hit it before, is it supposed to help or hurt the game? Sometimes I will press F5 to refresh a page, though.

Do you have similar glitches

Do you have similar glitches and lag when you play the game fullscreen without any other programs running in the background? Running TEF in a window can greatly increase the load on your computer, causing the game to lag, freeze, and even crash.

Well, I do not know, but

Well, I do not know, but isn't it happening anytime you click another window while playing the game? Anyway, try to untick 'keep running in background'. Maybe you could try to run as administrator and/or untick 'run in a window', but I'm not sure.
Also, I tried to press F10 on my own safety, and at the moment I clicked somewhere the game unfreezed... Also, what about your framerate? High or low? How many frames?

Yes, I do have glitches and

Yes, I do have glitches and lag AND crash several times when the game is either in a window or not. I wish I knew what was wrong with it, but I hardly know anything about computers and wouldn't know how to fix it. If there was a way.

Ok, I unticked both of them,

Ok, I unticked both of them, and my framerate is about 20 frames per second on average. But I have to quit the game everytime I want to go to the community again.

20 frames is a lot... There

20 frames is a lot... There won't be the problem. It might be your graphic card... Look at Nireda's bio.

Well... I don't think it

Well... I don't think it effects it, but did you runned it as an administrator?
Also, are those the clones made by the crashing game what is Spartak sparring with? I can't see them. No one can except you. I have experienced them as well, it wasn't friendly but I don't think others see them. Eye

Also, just to warn you that

Also, just to warn you that Spartak doesn't like naked deer as well, they give him the creeps for some reason, probably because he doesn't recognize them as a user. I know it sounds deerist, but it is just his character. His bio will be out soon, though I don't know when.
**I have to log out of the game to come here and type now, so pls don't be alarmed once I leave without sayin' goodbye.
Thank you.

Ah, it's okay.
Jennie dislikes touching certain materials and certain sounds and also some strangers. Should put it in her bio once Smiling

my game glitches up less now

my game glitches up less now that its not in a window and not running in the background, but it still does....just not as much. Spartak will be friendly to deer that have a different, unique picto but are still naked, just because they have a different picto. Nireda just has had bad experiences with those kinds of deer who don't know anything about the game yet. Some of them are rude.

I have to leave now, my game

I have to leave now, my game found out how to backfire on the plan and now it found a way to shut it down again. It used to be so easy to play this game, I don't know why its not? Sad Well, I'll see you tomorrow.
