PlaneShift
Support => Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game => Topic started by: Talad on September 20, 2002, 04:10:27 pm

Well I realized that there have been several posts about the same problems and I thought I\'d try to list as many problems and solutions as I could.
This refers to the client version 004 (atomicblue)
1. My game locks up when I connect. It just says \"Initializing world\" but Windows says it is not responding!
This is ok. On some machines, Planeshift believes it needs to recalculate the lighting, which can take up to 2 hours the first time you run. If you let it run to completion, it will load quickly every time after that.
2. When I created my character or tried to connect, it say \"Server has dropped us for some reason.\" I pressed Connect 500 times and it kept saying that. What do I do?!
Probably the server was not actually running at the time. Check out http://planeshift.fragnetics.com to check the server status. If the server is running and you still get this error, it is probably a firewall issue on your network.
3. Is there sound in the PlaneShift\'s alpha stage?
Yes. Actually there is, while I didn\'t realize this until just yesterday there is sound. You have to open up notepad, open file, and go to the the PlaneShift main directory. Make sure at the bottom it says \'all files\' and then open psclient.cfg and then look for this:
;Sound renderer
;System.PlugIns.iSoundRender = crystalspace.sound.render.software
Delete the \';\' (semi-colon) at the begining of the second line and save. It will look like that:
; Sound renderer
System.PlugIns.iSoundRender = crystalspace.sound.render.software
Now open PlaneShift and you should hear music. 8)
4. I can see the the chat menu but the background is the loading screen or is all black. Or I\'m zooming around in the air but I want to get back on the ground. What can I do?
First I\'d try typing, \'/spawn\' in the chat box. If this doesn\'t work reset PlaneShift. If you are still having problems restart your computer. And if the problem is still occuring post something on the message board and wait for a response.
5. The doors wont open! What key do I press to open doors!?
Hehe. Well, most people don\'t realize that the doors can\'t open until someone tells them..even if it means trying to open the doors for 20 minutes (not that I would do that :D ) but the real story is that the doors don\'t open for now. The game is in very early alpha I believe and these doors just don\'t work for now.
6. How can I make it play in full screen instead of in a window?
Open the file called \'psclient.cfg\' in notepad ( or your favorite text editor ) and search for the line:
Video.FullScreen = no
and change to:
Video.FullScreen = yes
7. How come I create a character and it always comes out a dwarf?
Well.. right now there are only 3 available models, the dwarf, the Enkidukai (cat-people), and the Ynnwns (correct me if I\'m wrong), so if you create anything but one of these three you\'ll end up a dwarf.
8. And, I messed up on creating my character... is there anyway to change his stats?
Well for right now, it\'s in alpha and you can\'t apply most of these stats so it\'s not a big deal. Sometime around beta they will wipe the characters and you will be able to make your character more to your liking.
9. What is the server name?
The server name you have to enter into the box to log in is: planeshift.fragnetics.com
10. It game doesn\'t fit in my window... what should I do?
You have two ways. One is to change the resolution of the game. Go to psclient.cfg and edit those lines:
Video.ScreenWidth = 800
Video.ScreenHeight = 600
You can change the values to 1024 and 768 or to 640 and 480 or other.
The second way is to change the resolution on your system, simply go to, Start > Settings > Control Panel > Display > Settings, and then change it to a higher resolution.
11. Win XP users (and maybe other users aswell):
If you have trouble with logging in, go to the properties of \"psclient.exe\". Under compatibillity, change the compatibillity from Win95 into Win98/me.
After u did that you will have less or no trouble logging in.
12. No fonts showing up in Windows XP with OpenGL mode.
possible fix for OPENGL fonts not showing is this I tried today
\"Go to your desktop and right click to get the display properties. Click on Settings and Advanced. Go to the OpenGL settings and check both boxes - 16bpp and texture - it worked for me.\"
If you have any other questions please let me know or post them somewhere\'s else on the message board.
Version 3.2
[EDIT BY MOGURA: Changed server address to Fragnetics. Hope you don\'t mind, Talad. ;)]

I searched the report bug forum when XP was causing the client to crash and didnt find any useful information. I decided to try to adjust the compatability settings and see if that did anything since the only GL problems seem to have been coming from XP users. It worked and I got all exicted that I solved a problem nobody else had an answer too. Then I stumbled on this forum and found that Talad had allready stolen my thunder and acknowleged this problem ;( . Oh well, at least I can play the game now :D
-
I know this may be a dumb question but how do I get out of town?

yea right,
and we have to believe that? with your 1post count..That idea came from some1 else (forgot who it was). I posted ot again with some other ideas/tips from players and Talad put them into the FAQ.

is the game suppose to be laggy?! im lagging like hell dude!! it could just be my computer... but i dunno. just tell me whut the problem *could* be.
-
Hey all.
Just a note, I\'m running WinXP SP1, ran the game, had an error the first time and crashed before it finished loading the world, but it ran the second time no problem (no compatability)
Just thought you may find that interesting
-
Dranak, it\'s not a dumb question at all. At this time you can not get out of town. Well... some would argue that point since you can get outside but there\'s nothing to do out there except run around I guess. I haven\'t done it myself.
-
cant rember where in the town but there is a gate and a tower you just walk in to the tower and you go over the gate (i.e some call this wall climbing) just thought it would useful
-
I\'ve been trying to connect to the game. Initially when I tried to create the character it said about being disconnected from the server. I saw the FAQ (#2) about the firewall problem. I am wondering if there is a workaround.
That only happened the first time I tried running it. Now when I try to connect to the game it just hangs and sometimes it crashes.
I am also running XP, so I tried the changing to WIndows 98 (it didn\'t give me a 98/me option) and also tried changing the config to be 32 bit deep window as was mentioned in another post. Neither of these changes has worked.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Cicada

I AM SO CLOSE TO SOLVING THE PROBLEM!!
I have winXP and i have an SiS 32 mb vid card.
480 mb ram, 1.7 ghz you know the drill.
what i really wanna know is... in the FAQ it says that i have ti fix the screen, sound, and all that jazz.... well all that worked and i hear sound and stuff. and i turned the compatability of the program or whatever to win98/ME or whatever. still doesnt work. so you guys say that i have to mess with the open GL but i have no idea how to do that. i go to adv settings of the monitor but then it says \"... and check both boxes\" and i see no boxes. no BOXES!!! nothing about open GL or texture or 16bpp or whatever the hell any of that means. PLEASE HELP. DEVOTED FAN WANTS TO PLAY! :D :D :D :D :D :D
-
You have to open the config file with a text editor, like notepad. And your video card sucks, go get a new one.
-
thanks
*shoots you in face*
my videocard my suck
but its the only once i got
plus my comp altogether cost me 650 so its okay.
-
j/k... but what do i change then in the list?
could you please tell me? im not seeing what i need to change in the degub thingie or the whatchamacallzit. if you could just walk me through it that would be awesome possom!
-
I got the same Lag problems as he has above, I cant even move really.. I guess Ill try rebooting and such, but we\'ll see
-
Yo! I\'m a new player and I\'m having trouble creating my character. When the upload box pops-up, I enter Starburst for my username, password(not telling!) and \"ps.gamiix.com\". But for some reason, My account doesn\'t get uploaded. Please tell me some way to fix that. Mail me at: alex_vassilenko@hotmail.com
-
fix your eyes and read the forum.
There is no server to run it on (yet). Wait till MB is released. That one will come with a new fresh working server.
-
plz help me who ever is admin... well it says when i click connect on a sever it says please contact ps admin... wat the hell do i do.... ?(
-
I\'m despairing now, since though initially my problems were fixed by looking at FAQ #1, I seem to get a different error every time I run the game. I did manage to get in once. but I didn\'t do anything different that time. Also, the dos window (before it disappears) says something about a cel variable not being set, and has four lines beginning with \"could not load\". Does this have anything to do with my randomly assorted errors? The last error was \"The server is not running or is not reachable. Please check the website or forums for more info.\" I think before that I had something similar, but it told me call technical support. ?(
-
When are they gonna update Tech. Support ?
-
When i open auto updater it says could not open cached registry /this/updat/erregistry.xml whats wit that someone anwser quick as possible, thanks
or dis the prob \"dowloading 0 bytes shutting down\"
-
While playing PS MB after chatting for a while everything stops. People stop moving around, chat box doesnt work, and i can only walk around. I can still pick up crystalls though. Anyone else experience this?
-
Hey, I\'m having the same problem as Starburst, with uploading charcters. I type in for the server: ps.gamiix.com, my char name, and my password. Then i press connect and after a while a window pops up saying couldent relosve server somthing or other. It is BUGGING THE HELL OUT OF ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT DO I DO!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!
-
Yea this also happenes to me but they will eventually fix it and have a big download with everything as i have heard. (real soon)

Are you talking about the \"there was an error in your account\'s database. Please contact an admin for help.\" problem? I have the same thing. Someone told me to recreate my character, and I did, but I get the same problem. It\'s really annoying. I guess I should search the forums more, hoping to find a solution.
-
Many people have some problem same me abt after create then log in . And ur FAQ # 2 talk abt firewall Can you tell us \"what and How\" we can make ?(
-
Read the webpage.
For starters it says that ps.gamiix.com is no longer the server and another one is to be used now. I\'m not going to tell you the name of it.
Read the webpage or suffer. Those are your choices.
-
hey venge can you tell me when u are going to put the new version all in one so i can play bc i dont want to download the old one and download an update! Thanx
-
I have the Updater (folder), the v1.006 game and all the downloaded parts, and run_me_first in the same folder. I also downloaded the msvcp.dll and have that in the updater. But whenever i go to update the game, tha updater gives me this message:
WARNING: could not load plugin \'crystalspace.kernel.vfs\'
Couldn\'t load vfs plugin!
WARNING: could not load plugin \'crystalspace.kernel.vfs\'
WARNING: could not load plugin \'crystalspace.kernel.vfs\'
Couldn\'t load vfs plugin!
Error: Couldn\'t find vfs plugin!
Press a key to continue.
What\'s the crystalspace kernel? And where can i get it?

This happens to me too! I don\'t wait an hour though. I press ctrl+alt+delete and then it says it\'s not responding. I think it has something to do when we first connected. That\'s what I read somewhere in a different forum. :rolleyes:
-
When i play this game it is lagging like crazy i\'m not sure if others have the same problem but when i try to play i could barely move my character! And as soon as i dropped into the dungeon i could move or chat at all, i had to stay in the same place while i see tons of other characters moving freely with ease, can anyone help me? ;(
-

PLZ HELP ME!!! i`ve had this problem over a week now! :(

Waahlord > Try running the Updater.exe in your Planeshift folder, and see if you can get the game updated to some newer version (That usually fixes alot of problems).

Hi.
WinXP Pro (Czech version), PII 500, 128 RAM
Plz, help someone. I have problems with library MSVCR70.DLL. When i launched a client, error window appears with message (translated from Czech language): \"Entry point of __iob_func could not be found in dynamic linked library MSVCR70.DLL.\" I tried to ruin it in Win95, Win98/ME modes, i tried to overwrite library with the one on web (known bugs list), but nothing helps... ;(
PS: sorry for my bad english
-
I still keep getting the \'there was an error in your database, please contact an admin\' or whatever error even tho i changed the compatability, used the right server and closed my firewall. I get that error then it dumps me to my desktop. How the heck do i get the thing to work?!
-
Hi again...
i didnt see a little difference...
the error is in library msvcR70.dll,
library in known bugs is msvcP70.dll
plz, where can i download right version of MSVCR?
thx.
-
no CEL environment variable set!
Using alternate 3d driver: crystalspace.graphics3d.software
Warning: Failed to load \'csddsimg\'; use \'-verbose\' argument for details.
Warning: Failed to load \'cssjngimg\'; use \'-verbose\' argument for details.
Warning: Failed to load \'cssgiimg\'; use \'-verbose\' argument for details.
Warning: Failed to load \'cswalimg\'; use \'-verbose\' argument for details.
This is what shows up in the DOS window just before the Planeshift Safe (Slow) Mode starts up.
It doesn\'t appear to affect the game any- but then again, it\'s given me this error every single time, so mayhap I don\'t even know how the game is supposed to look.
Is this a problem I should be worrying about or should I just leave it?
-
i get quite a bit of lag too when i shouldnt
xp pro
amd 1700xp
1024 ddr ram
gf4 mx 440
adsl 512 kps
dont know hwat i can do to reduce lag
-
I just downloaded PlaneShift, and when I entered the game, I heard a sound, and a white screen with 3 jewels appeared. I clicked on the blue one, (I think it\'s the character creation), and then I saw lots of small arrows on a white screen. What\'s happening?
-
alright heres the problem i downloaded the 5 things that the open me first thing alright and when i get the installer it doesn\'t work it gives me this odd error and says i should use a command called /ncrc or something but it says its not recomended what should i do this game looks realy koool and i want to play HELP
-
Each time i try to download a part, it ends at 3MB. I dont have a download manager, but I have marketscore acellerator plugin. how do I get rid of it? is it the problem?
-
Ok, I tried logging in a bunch of times and i finally got a glimpse of the game. Looks awsome. But, thats all i got.
The game lagged awful and i had to shut down the program. Plus, I get this message sometimes in the bottom right corner of windows XP. Ahem:
Windows-Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low
Your system is low on virtual memory. Windows is increasing the size of your virtual memory paging file. During this process, memory requests for some applications may be denied.
Any ideas? Next time I log in, I would like to actually be able to move. O, another thing. I logged in when it was raining. I have heard thunder causes lag, but man. My computer nearly froze. Confused... ?(
-
Hey, i\'m new and it freezes when it says it\'s loading the world. I know you said it\'s calibrating lights or something but if it is, then how come when i hit ctr alt del, it says that the program hasn\'t been responding? is there anyway to do this without waiting 2 hours?
-
Well, when i finally get past the loading world part,
I move around fine for a few minutes and then it freezes. Windows task manager says the program is not responding. So, in some feeble attempt to actually make the game work, I sit there for far more than 2 hours. It still says PS isn\'t responding and all that jazz.
Thus the vicious cycle repeats itself..
-
I need help again, i made my character, then i connected to teh server, then it says on the right side of the screen
Loading:
Loading: Textures
Initilizing: Character
Initilizing: GUI
Initilizing: World
I hear music, but nothing happens, i waited for 10 minutes, what do i do?
-
dependig on your system specs it may even take longer (especially the first time you enter the game)
-
When the Loading thing comes up i wait till its done, but it only reaches Initilizing World, and stays there for 10 minutes then the game just closes, i tried like 10 times now, what do i do to fix this?
-
okay, when i start up the clien,t it always says some random numbers, and a wve output thingie, and that cannot support the specified format, so i click okay an dit works fine after that. but the connection always dies when it starts up thw world, so your telling me to leave it on for 2 hours even if the program stops respoding when loading the world?

This means you are low on memory even with VM kicked in. You needed to either
1. add more physical memory to your compunter (preferred); or
2. increase the virtual memory space. You can do this by:
right click on \"My Computer\"
click Advanced (tab)
click settings button in the Performance area
click Advanced (tab)
click change button in the virtual memory area and up the max memory say 100MB to 200MB at a time until you don\'t get that error.
This will allow the app to launch but will probably have lag and performance problem after it launch due to paging & swaping.

Ok, the client is not taking too well with XP; I have P4 2.5 gHZ processor, Radeon 7500 pro vid card, 1 gig of ram, Dualbios motherboard, and all the recent drivers, and still: *flicker* *error* *crash*.... There needs to be some sort of fix for that lol...
yeah, other than that, this looks like a Kickass game!
-
I first tried creating a character and got all the way to the loading world problem and i quit after 15 minutes and checked out the forum where i learned to wait. So i tried it again and the next three times i tried it gave me link dead errors. So i again checked the forum and changed the compatablity on and changed it to 98/me. I then tried both the slow version, which instantly completes the program and exits, and the openGl version, which frezes after the line \"Using alternative 3D driver: crystalspace.graphics3d.opengl\".
some people are talking about opening up and fixing the openGl and i work with openGl with C++ but i dont know how to do this. If i could get some help i would really appreciate it. Thanx.

I just finished downloading all the files (took me about 7 hours total on dial up) and the run_me_first file created PlaneShiftV0.2.010.exe but when when I run the exe this error message pops up:
NSIS ERROR
Installer corrupted or incomplete.
This could be the result of a failed download or corruption from a virus.
If desperate, try the NCRC command line switch (NOT reccomended)
My question is how would I use this \"NCRC command line switch\"?
P.S.: PLEASE dont tell me I have re-download the files, if theres any way around doing so.

Hi,

I checked out the CVS Repository and tryed to compile it ...
Ok it must be murphy but it dont work for me ... there are many compiler errors.
I dont think its my runtime. There are many syntax errors ... like \"Warning unused variable\" , errors with pointers ... and many other stupid stuff.
Somebody out there who can give my a working version of CEL ?

i am still trying to install the client and when i try to open the run_me_first thing this message comes up it says \"the keyboard driver specified by the KEYBOARD=line in the ....blah blah blah.... to correct this problem, run Windows setup again\" how do i fix this?
-
I tried to read all of this thread... but I get a headache... All these ppl do is type in a question that was answered in the last reply. I am sorry I gave up on reading a last couple of threads but I will try the feeble attemp as everyone else does in hope of a reply.
PLZ: eager 14 year old
Ohhhhh K. Here is my prob, I start up the game... NO WAIT. Let me show you this first.
(I don\'t remeber it all but here is what I know)
System: Win XP
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) III Mobile CPU 1333Mhz
Video card: usure: Mobility Radeon? Anyway, it\'s a 32 MB, new 3-D powered graphics card. (no worries there except it\'s kinda slow in graphic resolution that\'s past 1240...)
RAM: 256
srry, I know there is more info I just can\'t think about it..
ANYWAY, here is the problem, as you know I run on XP. I followed a couple of ideas but mainly advice from newbies. So I guessed that was the reason why it doesn\'t work. (I am a newb myself but I am a person that tries to solve his own problem) BUT, it solved a couple of other problems I had. Fill me in, what am I supposed to do when it gives me the \'Your a dead link\'? I am stuck on that so far. (I just thought I may as well tell you, that I think, that you are, tired of reading in between the lines lol)
I LOVE YOUR GAME :) :) :) :)
-
I\'m having problems downloading the game. The same thing that happened to kaill is happening to me. I checked the folder and only like 19,000 of it is loading... is there anyway to get the rest of each one to load?

Whenever I try to upload my character I put in the server (planeshift.fragnetics.com), my username and password, but I keep getting an error - \"The server is not running or is not reachable. Please refer to the website or forums for more info.\" According to the website, the server is online and working ok. Could this be a firewall problem, and if so, is there a way to work around it?
I\'m using a WIndows 98 computer with a linux server (an an overenthusiastic firewall).

I\'m not an expert in it, but I think that could be your problem- PSclient connects to port 13331 or some such, and your firewall is probebly stopping that.
-
every time i try to conect to ps.gamiix.com it says that it couldn\'t resolve server host name so email me at vegitto@144web.com about how to fix this
-
the game is so slow its unbeleivable, it takes me almost 2 minutes to be able to move/do anything. Is this just lag or is it not, and, if so is there something i can do to fix it??
-
About when i am supposed to let it load when its initilizing world when i press ctr+alt+delete it says its not responding so am i supposed to let it keep loading or what?
-
sinflare, the game has lag spikes. a lot of people working on one server=lag, somebody donate good servers.
bashka, i answered urs in a different thread. don\'t post the same problem so many times.
-
ok sorry man thx though :)
-
Ok i let it load and the music stopped and it did this before and i pressed ctr+alt+delete and it said its on low resources help plz
-
How much RAM do you have?
-
if u haven\'t rebooted do that. leave it off and unplug it for about 10 secs. and then turn it back on and u should be good.
-
Ok i just let it stay there for a bit and it worked but is it supposed to be this laggy and how do i close the chat screen if i can lol?

-
I\'ve tried a few times to load it but it freezes when it says something like Loading World when I try to conect. Can somebody help? Thank you!
-
when i try to load it stalls at initializing world
then i have to try for about 3 mintues to \"end task\"
p.s. im on windows xp home edition
-
i have the exact same problems as Bashka and i have 512 ram
so it doesnt have anything to do with ram
-
The first time you connect to the server it can take up to two hours, since the game has to configurate stuff.. its important that you dont alt+tab, even if it seems like the game doesnt respond.
-
it says to change
video.fullscreen = no to
video.fullscreen = yes
[SIZE=10]THERE IS NO VIDEO.FULLSCREEN LINE! [/SIZE]
-
I downloaded all the files, then the reassembler, and then i go to the files and double click on the run.me.first file, but this DOS looking screen blinks for a second and goes away, and nothing happens. How do i install the game?

Make sure all your files are in the same directory and check if they are the right size.
Use the tool you can download on the download page to check if the files you downloaded are the same.
Also, make sure you do not use a download accelerator to download the files. It can cause your files to go corrupt or be the wrong size.
-
It took me at least 4 minutes to initialize world, i have a 1.3 with 300something RAM and 64mb NVidia. The game seems to run fine if it werent for server lag. One thing I have noticed, and not... The game is supposed to support D3D. Where do I go to select this? I was think the cfg file but im not at home right now to check it. And lastly the person earlier in the post that YELLED!!... if the option isnt present than just type it in.
-
Ok, I try to connect to game... NO! I get A error after maybe 2-4 Mins saying the server has gone linkdead, how can i fix this or what can i do to bypass it or something? I just downloaded the game, AND I WANNA PLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where did you learn to type in such a ridiculous way...? Capital letters begin at the start of a sentence and as the first letter of names/places only, unless emphasis is needed on a paticular word or phrase. Plus I have an almost phobeatic aversion to reading such text...
Ahem... anyway... no. Sorry, but I just can\'t stand reading that, otherwise I\'d try to help. Right now though, I don\'t want to induce a splitting headache. :P
[Edit: That sounds so pathetic, if only it wasn\'t true. :(]

hmm, better edit your post so Mogura will help you :)
-
I fixed the F***ing caps thing, you happy now?
-
Still not perfect, but at least it\'s readable now.
For linkdead information, please check this thread (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=3971&boardid=17&styleid=3). Hopefully what\'s there can help you, if not, please post back with more info.

I did that, but NOW its telling me the server is unreachable Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
-
Then maybe it\'s down. You can check server status at http://planeshift.fragnetics.com
I wouldn\'t be so impatient to get it to work, though, there\'s no rush. Not really much you can do ingame yet.
-
Im still getting it....
-
*Sigh* ...Can\'t you use your initiative? There are so many \"I can\'t connect!\" threads floating around in this forum- just run a search and see. There\'s alot of possible causes (and their solutions) for this particular error, so look around.
-
Im too lazy ;)
-
Too bad then.
-
I downloaded all of it and it says \"NSIS ERROR Installer incomplete or corrupted This could be the result of a failed download or corruption from a virus If desperate, try the /NCRC command line switch (NOT recommended)\"
-
Nano: When you read \"This could be the result of a failed download or corruption\", what does your brain tell you?
Here\'s a clue: Download it again. :P
-
Sorry, I guess this lack of sleep is doing something to my brain
-
onlt post a problem 1 time please
-
I\'m new here and maybe I could be asking again a question that was already answered. Although I searched the forum with diferent keywords and all I got was a lot of questions with no answer.
The problem is that I can\'t connect. The case is that I use proxy server here and the game can\'t get through.
Is it possible to use proxies and, if it is, how can I do it?
It can be any kind of proxy, http, https, socks 4, socks 5 ....
Thanks

Hey people! Don\'t be so sad. I can\'t even \"initialize directdraw\" with my radeon9600pro! And I could with my previous kyroII !!!

Talad\'s original post on this thread has now been edited. The server address was corrected.

Run_me_1st.bat not working
Click start-->Run, and type in \"command\", at the dos screen type in your path to the directory you saved the 5 20MB(approx) files in for Planeshift.
ie: cd c:\\downloads\\games\\Planeshift
type dir/w, to see a list of the files in the directory, to verify you are in the right place.
You know it\'s right, if you see all 5 of the following files:
PSV0.2.010.Part1
PSV0.2.010.Part2
PSV0.2.010.Part3
PSV0.2.010.Part4
PSV0.2.010.Part5
If you see all 5 files, then type this on the command line:
copy /b PSV0.2.010.Part1 + PSV0.2.010.Part2 + PSV0.2.010.Part3 + PSV0.2.010.Part4 + PSV0.2.010.Part5 PlaneShiftV0.2.010.exe
use same spacing, and only hit enter when you\'ve typed the entire thing

OK...i download all 5 parts for windows and the thingy that puts them all togeather and i run that program..its a DOS and it says...all the 5 files have +s at the end signling like their being put together but it says 0 files copied forever!
-
When I start the program it says psclient.exe is not a valid win32 application..
What the hell is that? Could someone help me out pls.
-
I downloaded all 5 Parts as well as the Assembler, ran the Assembler and then double-clicked the PlaneShiftV0.2.010.exe on to get a message saying that there was an error, and that the files were corrupt. So I re-downloaded another set of all 5 files and the Assembler from the Secondary download sites and still am getting the same error when trying to run the final PlaneShiftV0.2.010 executable. Could someone check these downloads out for us. There may be a problem from the downloader\'s end and not ours. I can\'t think of what else to do and am getting desperate to join....
Oopps... I just read a previous post that Keldorn offered in helping us with this problem. It seems I may be getting corrupt files because I did indeed use Download Accelorator. That said, I appologies for not having read this posting first and shall go back and try again downloading the client files using IE\'s built in downloader. :)
Thank you for your patience, hope I haven\'t added to the frustration of another \'newbie\' question :)
-
Not at all Astasia, you\'ve only made 2 posts and I\'m already stunned by your excellent attitude. :] The world needs more of your kind, let me tell you.
If it still says the file is corrupt, go to the Downloads page of the main website and scroll to the bottom, where you will find the MD5 signature checker tool. Download this and use it to check each of your part files for inconsistencies with the signatures shown on the page. Redownload only the part files that are corrupt, save downloading every single one again.
Alternatively you could try downloading the pre-compiled .exe file, which can be found here (http://www.fragnetics.com/download.php?file=planeshift).
Let us know how you get on with that. :)
-
Hello Moogie, and thank you for the quick and friendly help!
I decided to download the pre-compiled .exe file and finally got it up and running with my \'Astasia\' character :)
It turned dark as soon as I entered the new world, so until I can see again I just tucked myself away and came back here to get more helpful info on the How\'s, What\'s and Where\'s of the environment.
Nice looking world too, can\'t wait to actually play a bit, though I always feel a little apprehensive when I first appear in a new world. Might be a bit more reclusive than my char normally would be till I feel comfortable with my new surroundings :)
-
How I envy those of you who can actually run the game! I got all the partsw, used the joiner-together thingy, all seemed well, untill I ran the exe that it made. It saysd the file is too big for my memory, but I have half a gig! Wbhat the hoo-ha is going on?..
-
Well, I got that to work. I simply deleted a few files here, renamed some others there, and I got in the game. I created a character and the game crashed while it was loading the world. (Which took an unnecessarily long time) Now, when I get back in, it says I\'m linkdead. I really don\'t know what that means, but I\'m sure it\'s not good..
-
Hi!
Are there any news about the lag issue? I just finished reading this thread, and there are alot of people having this client-lag problem. My framerate is like 1fps getting worse when I have alot of polygons in my field of view.
Its unplayable. It cannot have anything to do with my performance, cause I chatted with people ingame who have about the same speed/gfx card and their game runs fine.
So I downloaded the newest WinXP Nvidia Detonators (I got a Gforce2 Pro) and tried again. It didnt help - even worse - C&C Zero Hour didnt work anymore.
I turned the OpenGL colordepth to 16bpp and tried option like complian texture clamp... I have no clue what thats doing :)
So are there any ideas?
-
ok hi im new any every time i try to log in i type in my forums name and pass and hit connect and it says it was wrong and game closes and i know i entered the right info wat am i doing wrong

If you are talking about logging into the game you do not sign up by creating an account here in the forums... you have to hit create character button on the main screen and go through that process. The character name you choose will become your username. The forums and the game are completely seperate.
Hope that helps.
-
heres anotehr question on windows xp i opened psclient.cfg and theres no line that says bideo.fullscreen
-
It may also be in the planeshift.cfg file.
If it\'s not, you can simply add it yourself. It will have the same effect.

Well.. actually I managed to do this.
I\'m out of everything, kind of below the plane the city hovers above.
It looked like a sea but it\'s really a big plane.
Now I got a big problem... :D I can\'t get back.
-
1. run the updater
2. type /spawn ingame in the chat window
-
Thanks, I\'ll try that :)
-
That doesn\'t work :(
It spawns me in the place where I logged in. Not really useful as that\'s below the city :P
-
Moogie? Lol there\'s a name that\'ll catch on quick....
Anyway, I read this whle thing (finally), and got the game going, except for those other 100 questions that never got answered, the \"Why is it so slow?\" question. I\'m having the same problem. Here are my specs.
553 mhz
256MB Ram
Geforce 2 32MB
More than enough space left on HD (just in case).
When I run the game, all I can do is chat, moving around won\'t work, I tried the arrow keys, and they did squat, I tried the mouse, it did squat, I tried throwing my cat across the room....that did squat (for you cat-lovers, she landed on the soft pillowy couch).
Sorry for pesterin you, but none of the previous questions got answered.
-
Monso, the reason that the game is slow is the unoptomized state of the code. Most likely the next version (Crystal Blue or CB) will improve on this, so less of us will have problems with the game.
As for your system, your CPU may be what is holding you back, as your RAM and video card should be fine. I\'m not sure what the slowest processor has been used to run this game, but I believe that the majority of users that run this version well have a faster system.
Hopefully that clears things up a bit.
-
have any of you devs thought about putting in \"fog\" to drop off some of the poly count? maybe just do so as a patch or something?
-
I dont think its only because of the polycount. You can look from the hill down to the city and it wont lag much. But its lagish in the center.... I dont know what the problem is, but i think the fog wont help much. Or.... maybe it will... ?(
-
I\'m pretty sure \"fogging\" will improve performance, but even with that feature it won\'t be all good. In places where few polys should have to be calculated, the game is still extremely slow to the extent that it is unplayable. I think a lot of performance improvements have been made in the Crystal Space engine, so hopefully CB will make it more interesting (that is, usable) for me.
I also have difficulties getting it to work. I have managed to get in, but it seems that with a color-depth of 32-bit, the game crashes at start-up. Or maybe it is some other factor; I haven\'t traced it enough. In addition, the music still stutters for me. I thought this had been fixed a long time ago.
Ah well, I\'ll try to have patience.
-
Ummm...Okay, So i downloaded the 5 parts & the compiler, But when i click the icon it creates, it says its not a valid Win32 application...Heeeelp! I really want to play the game >.<
-
er help i read the previous pages and threads and i try redownloading the 5 parts but i still ge thte error i dont think i hav a download accerator since it i never installed on pls help.(dont tell me to redownload again i\'ve tried it 4times now)
-
hi when i try to run the .bat file from after downloading the other 5 game files, ms-dos closes straight away making it unable to do a install
im running windows xp prof and any advice how i can get the game working would be greatly thankful
thanks in advance
-

That does have the potential to boost performance a lot. Dungeon Siege uses such a system, the results are incredible.
I have not been following PS for a long time, but I remember that some people were interested in making a DirectX version of the CS engine. That would help a lot of people.
(I\'ve come back after many months... seems that this community is alive and well :D)

I keep getting stuck while connecting whith an error message that states: there is an error in the database of your acount please refer to the forums for how to fix it.
So here i am,Can any body here Help me?
-
I think u have to delet your char and then creat it again but befor u delet it check if it \"broken\". U do that at the same place u delet it
-
Alright, thanks.
But how do i delet my character
-
right there Crinder ------->http://planeshift.fragnetics.com/admin/form.html (http://planeshift.fragnetics.com/admin/form.html)
-
How do i get fullscreen? the faq in the begining dosent work in the question and i think it should be uppgraded
-
run pssetup.exe and select the fullscreen option
-
I posted earlier about this problem and they told me i should delete my character.
I did this, after finding out that it was broken and created a new one and it happened again and again.
I have already created the same character 7 times and each time, the same error in database error, So the question is:
Should I insist on the same or is there something I should change?
-
Ok i read alot of the posts here and i still have some questions/problems.
One: Even after i waited TWO hours for it to \"load up properly\" it still takes me 15 minuites to load up everytime!
Two: once it FINALLY loads up there is so much LAG that i cant even move or anything, and even if i do move its a whole 2 minuites after i told it to.
Three: About 5 minuites into the (totally lagged up and useless) game i get a typical error messege:
This Program has preformed an illegal operation
and will be shut down.
Details;
PSCLIENT caused an invalid page fault in
module, SNDWAVEOUT.DLL at 017f:0168ld5b.
WHAT THE HELL? I JUST WANT TO PLAY THE FRIGGEN GAME!!

the game has 2 much lag, may b its my computer?
here r my specs:
1.40ghz, 532 mb ram, 56kbps modem, 3d graphics intel agp
-
Have you read my reply in your thread?
Lag is normal. Everyone experienced it. It\'s not due to network, it\'s due to the 3D engine which is still in devel. The next release could fix it
-
Ok, I know how frustrating it is to be very knowledgable about something and have a thousand screaming newbies come at you all at once demanding help. I\'ve been there. And I tried to read through this entire thread, but just too many threads were the same question over and over and it began to give me a headache. I had a linkdead issue. I got that fixed by using the IP address. Now, I actually get connected to the client and when it says initializing world, I waited, willing to give it a full 6 hours if needed, yes, I have no life, listening to the stuttering music with actual joy because it meant things were still working. And then, poof it closed at random. Is this a common error? And if so, is there any way to fix it? Help would be eternally appreciated.
-
Elmallen of Erisea, can you post your computer specs? That may shed some light on the problem.
-
Actually, I tried it again about an hour after I posted that and I actually got into the world. Beautiful stuff guys, makes EverQuest look like stick figures. But after about 20 minutes it froze and crashed. And now every time I try to get on it goes to the loading screen, takes about 15 mins to load up, and tells me the server is Linkdead.
And my comp specs are as follows
Processor: Athlon DMZ 800mhz
System: Windows 98 First Edition
Memory: 256 mb
Video: 32 megs, dunno what brand, integrated motherboard system.
-
NOTT! I hate lagging. But there was a little on EQ. NOT like this though. I can\'t wait til everything\'s fixed.
-
i got 5 parts and recompiler, did it no probs. made new char, tried connect and got link dead messege. read few forums went bak and sorted it, then i made new char an got bad char messege or summat, i deleted him tried again with new char and was amazed wen it started loading (i hav bad luck wiv these things). i got into game after about 15 mins. was a bit laggy but alright. i minimized the window cos i forgot all controls an stuff,,, after i looked em up i open a NEW game. realising i had 2 games open i closed em both using task manager cos they on was not responding. i restarted comp an tried connect again,, it wont work now an i get this in DOS screen at start up:-

I\'m haveing trouble with the full screen... My PS Setup isn\'t working and I looked in the cilent notpad file and couldn\'t find the Video.Fullscreen= no thing to change it... What do I do?
-
6. How can I make it play in full screen instead of in a window?
Open the file called \'psclient.cfg\' in notepad ( or your favorite text editor ) and search for the line:
Video.FullScreen = no
and change to:
Video.FullScreen = yes
how come that doesn\'t come up now?
-
HELP
the server keeps dropping me, is it because theres so many players on or the ass goku kept punching in letters swears,ect that it overloaded? now I can\'t even load planeshift it just says initializing world then just stays like that for over an hour, where as before it took 30 secs. HELP ME!!!!!!! P.S. Mordaan mentioned a download from aiknas or something what is it?
-
Hi im a newbie haven\'t even started playing yet but would really like to i just made up my character with no problems but when i went to log in as it was \"initializing world\" i recieved this error:
-psclient has caused an error in THING.DLL
in a desperate attempt to acces the game i removed that file from the directroy then got this error
-psclient has caused an error in ENGINE.DLL

Update your soundcard drivers and make sure you are not running any other programs which use your soundcard (games, media players, etc).

You may need more RAM to play PS without crashing. Also, I have AMD, and I can tell you that PS is likely to seriously overheat your processor, so make sure it has adequate cooling measures.
========================================
Darkflow: Ignore those messages, they\'re normal. If your character is invalid you can delete it again, otherwise there\'s nothing you can do about it at the moment. Try waiting a few days before attempting to log in again, that\'s all I can suggest.
========================================
atlaconspire: Go to http://www.dll-files.com to download any that you need. You probably need to do one of the following:
Update your graphics drivers
Update your DirectX version
Buy a new PC
And just fyi, net spiders can pull your email address off of forums and spam you with mail, so I suggest you remove it unless you have a very good filter. :P
-
Ok, I found the file I needed to get full screen and fixed it , thanks... but now, I\'m trying to log in and sometimes I get the message \"Could not resolve hostname server\" or something along those line... nomaly I\'ll click connect a few more time and get in but for the past few days it has let me in... Whats going on with this?
(I try not ask qusetions that someone anwsered already, if this one was anwsered somewhere, sorry I couldn\'t find it...)

There\'s a sticky thread specifically for that problem. Check it out here : http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=4778&boardid=17&styleid=2

Well does anybody know how to stop the world from freezing on you?
It\'s my biggest problem.

Hey! I was looking through the problems that happened while I was connecting and it says \"can not find skills.png\" Is there a way I can get this w/o having to re install?

-
Just in reply to those who are having initialisation problems, i have finally fixed mine. I bought 512mb 333DDR ram and it loads with in 10seconds into the world.
I would personally not advise anyone to run lower then 512 RAM for playing planeshift.
-
1. My game locks up when I connect. It just says \"Initializing world\" but Windows says it is not responding!
This is ok. On some machines, Planeshift believes it needs to recalculate the lighting, which can take up to 2 hours the first time you run. If you let it run to completion, it will load quickly every time after that.
hmm, I wait for some time... Program exits with no messages, just closes... In safe mode it disconnects me from internet, saying \"server link is dead\", but the reason of this trouble is inside program.
I think that I won\'t use it anymore if I don\'t get solution for these troubles.
I am using Celreon 600/128 Mb(PC100)/Asus V3800 Pro(NVIDIA RivaTNT2 Pro) 32Mb DirectX 9.0b Omega Drivers the Lastest version/WinXP Pro
-
Anarki: Most likely problem is your lack of RAM. Generally speaking, most people need at least 256 MB of RAM to play Planeshift, especially with Windows XP. As the game starts to allocate all the memory, it probobly bombs out when it runs out.

But if I\'ll install Win98... Will It work? Or maybe I need more memory anyway?
-
Please, 128MB ram is WAAY too low these days.
Look at new comps, they have 512 at least.
Memory sticks are cheep (Unless you have RAMBUS like me, 200 - 300$ for 512 MB :O) and very easy to put in

umm...i\'m not sure if this has already been asked (i just finished reading through this thread) but i\'ll go ahead anyway ^^;;
I can get the client to work up to \"Initializing World\", but wait, I\'m not going to ask why it takes forever. I already read that it would take up to 2 hours.
So I wait for it to fix up the lighting and stuff, but after about a minute the music starts skipping and then I get an error that says-
\"psclient.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.\"
Then it asks if I want to send an error report to Microsoft, and I click Don\'t Send. After I do that, my computer lags forever and then PlaneShift closes itself.
So does anyone know what the problem is? I\'ve been trying to play PS for about a year now (yes, a year e_e)and I\'ve switched from Windows 2000 to Windows XP (and it still won\'t work). I would really like to play :D
Thank you, Zuki/Cheriye
-
Could you post your computer specs Cheriye? It may help to see what the problem is. (CPU, RAM, Video card would be useful pieces of info).
-
i had to restart my computer a few times to catch the infromation but here\'s what i found (it wouldn\'t show when i looked at the System Properties):
CPU:AMD Athlon
RAM:256 MB
Video Card: ?
where can i find the video card name other than in the System Properties because my computer yells at me when i try to look at it (WMI has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.) ;-;
-
can someone please tell me how to stop all this heavy lag.....i want to play the game but i cant hardly move or log off!!!!! i want this fix now so i can play normally......
-
Hi, I was playing (lagging) PS for two days and afterwards tried updating my video drivers.. so now.. the game doesnt load.. I get the usual Initializing World thing.. I actually thought that it was acting like the first time thing, that I read about so much.. except that on the first try it took only 15 mins to start.. but after wards there was one time with it standing still for 30mins... but now.. I dont see any light indications that the computer is actually thinking.. it acts as if the game is already running.. and task manager says \'running\', could new drivers for GForce have such a power of destruction? maybe i should reinstall the game>? (didnt try this)
thanks for any kind of answer.. and for reading
-
Hi uh yeah when i go to properties of psclient.exe, there is no compatibilty tab
if you have any information on that PM me
-
4. I can see the the chat menu but the background is the loading screen or is all black. Or I\'m zooming around in the air but I want to get back on the ground. What can I do?
First I\'d try typing, \'/spawn\' in the chat box. If this doesn\'t work reset PlaneShift. If you are still having problems restart your computer. And if the problem is still occuring post something on the message board and wait for a response.
I\'m having this problem, The game loads up, all all the GUI shows, but i still see the main loading screen.
I have also tryed all the suggested fixes (above in quote).
Just so you know the excate nature of things i\'ll list all I have done.
-Played PS perfectly fine for a few days.
-Then I install Cirys mods, and contiuned to play perfectly fine for a few days. (much more happly)
-Then the problem happed, so I ran the updater (overwriting all the files assioated with Cirys mods) and then reinstalled Cirys mods, and redid my settings, and the game worked fine after that.
-The next day (today) the problem started all over again.
-I followed all the directions in the quote above, and sadly none of them worked.
I would perfer not to do anouther update (overwritting all my settings) again. Obviosly I will if i have to, but if you have anouther suggestion I would greatly apprecate it.
-
Well, I have installed PS.
In the screen that says \"Paneshift Setup\" it says \"Completed\"
What must I do after that to play?
Thanks in advance
-
I have created my character but when I upload I get a message that the server is not reachable. Anyone can help me here?

\"psclient.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.\"
Then it asks if I want to send an error report to Microsoft, and I click Don\'t Send. After I do that, my computer lags forever and then PlaneShift closes itself.
So does anyone know what the problem is? I\'ve been trying to play PS for about a year now (yes, a year e_e)and I\'ve switched from Windows 2000 to Windows XP (and it still won\'t work). I would really like to play :D
Thank you, Zuki/Cheriye
I\'m having the same exact problem someone please help us
