Title: Problem connecting when character is dead

Yes, this problem has been rather common so you would have found similar threads in the forums.

Anyway, try to go to pssetup: start->Programs->Planeshift Crystal Blue->Planeshift Setup and turn off sound.
once you do that, launch the game and try to see if it works.

The problem is probably related to the fact that there is a sound error depending from the area you are in, in this case Death Realm.

Do you get an error or you can\'t just load something?
can you try to run the client with the console?
And show its output?

Im using windows, and the client doesnt outputs nothing. I dont get any error message, simply keeps loading world forever until I kill it.

I have asked you to try to run the client with the console.

Do start->programs->Planeshift Crystal Blue-> and right click Planeshift Tech Demo.
Where you have \"target\" add --console at the line.
Run the client and copy here the last lines.

The console shows a lot of error messages about region load failed:

crystalspace.maploader.parse.map:
