Question about the pop up quests along the roads

I play with my sister, we are always in a group. When we get the little pop up quests along the road and such (sorry I forget what they are called) 90% of the time, my sister cannot do anything with them, and she gets no reward.

For instance, earlier there was a basket in the road, she couldn't even see it. I picked it up and got the xp and gold and such, she got nothing. We just found a body in the road, she could see it but not interact with it. I clicked on it and got all the rewards, and see got nothing.

Yesterday we came across one of the kids that you have to send home, she was able to do that one, but it wasn't along the road, but off the road in the woods (East Parsing Woods). we also came across the guy looking for the treasure chest twice, and she couldn't click on the chest either time. Both of those were off the road, in the woods as well.

I haven't quested in a group until now, only done dungeons and guild stuff in groups, so have no idea if this is just how it goes, or is it bugged?

Thank you

Just upgraded gpu, now I get flashing green lines in game

You're right, I'm not saying anything against that.
But we've entered a period where system requirements have increased. Gamers and users are now building high-end systems.
So, I'm basically asking, Do those Who want to play this game now have to live with this green bug ?
And since Nvidia isn't going to release a special driver for Dragon's Prophet anymore, I guess the answer is yes then ..

According to you, everyone with a 5000 series Nvidia card must be experiencing this problem, right?
So, does that mean everyone with a new Nvidia card has to play this game seeing these green lines?
No, according to you, everyone with a 5000 (and possibly a 4000) series card would have this same experience, as it would be a server issue. Because it is a driver issue, it is different person to person.

When the issue is a driver issue the problem can be caused by the nVidia/AMD driver, the specific firmware specific to a manufacturer for a specific GPU, an issue with a specific model of GPU or even an interaction issue between different hardware (eg CPU bottlenecking your GPU, causing the issue). Outside of major titles or larger companies who have direct access to nVidia/AMD for driver validation or software support, there is often very little that can be done.

DP was released in 2012, with a graphic/rendering system specifically designed for Windows Vista/Windows 7; these issues are going to become more and more common because hardware is vastly different compared to then.

I have tried to reproduce this on 4 different cards (4060 Ti, 4080, 5060 Ti and 5090) across different manufacturers (ASUS, Gigabyte, Zotac and Founder edition cards). So far I have not been able to reproduce the issue, and will need to see if there is something in common with people who have made the reports.

The bug is not server side, the bug is a driver issue, as has been explained previously.

Similar bugs have happened since the release of the game, however with evolving hardware and driver implementations it's going to be more and more common for rendering issues to occur.

sorry, but I have only one gpu(5070 Ti).
And I definitely have no intention of buying another card because of this game.
You can be sure of that ;)
I've been on Dragon's Prophet servers since 2016. In fact, I've been on other servers too, and I've never seen a bug like this on any of them.
I don't mean to cause any trouble. But just because We're using an Nvidia card doesn't mean I'm going to spend money because of a server-side bug.

Looking for 1000x1000 plot

You can also change your house even with eggs in the nest; you just have to put everything back in place. I have a large plot of land, but unfortunately, it's very bad – it's all crooked and uneven, and there are large rocks on it. It would be great if that could be changed later, since large plots of land are rare.
Oh, okay. I figured picking the nests up with an egg still incubating, would mess up the egg.

Only one I found was to run 2 video cards. I just added my 3060 back in and told windows to use it for DP, and now it plays just fine.
