Did you set the server to ps.gamiix.com? and If you did I recommend you wait a few weeks for the next release.

Hi !
How did you disconnect your fire-wall ? ?(
I went in the net configuration et saw that mine wasn\'t run. Is there an another option to pick off ?

When i try to connect after creating a player, i sometimes got the same message and sometimes got this : \"That player is already logged on and playing.\"  ?(

I\'ve got Windows XP and ADSL on a good configuration material.  ;(

It means that there has been a little bug, bugging you :)
wait for about 5 min and try to login again then.

The server constantly check if player are really connected. When it finds out you arent, it will disconnect your character so that you can login again.

to turn off ur filewall....go to control panel...click on network and internet connections....go to network connections...then right click on the thing that comes up and go to properties...then go to firewall/advanced...and uncheck it...then ok and ur set...remember to put it back on after ur done playing :)
Hope this helped :D

wait 5 min? I have logged on for about 3 minutes out of the last hour and a half due to attempting to log on, without waiting, about thrity seconds was generally enough for it to disconnect my other player.  But i am having a problem where it stops responding.  Even the \"safe\" mode did so.

You pick it up with your left hand, then grab the wires sticking out with your right hand, and pull.

alternatively you can press the \'off\' button, which no-doubt is situated somewhere in plain sight :P
