I get this screen after the loading screen.

What`s to be done?

Post your system specs (processor, RAM amount, graphics card type) and try updating your graphics drivers. Type dxdiag into the Windows Run command to see all this information, and look at the Display tab on the window that comes up for your graphics card. If it's anything from Nvidia, visit nvidia.com; ati --> ati.com; and for anything else, use Google to find the manufacturer of your card.

Processor: mobile AMD Athlon(tm) XP 1800+, MMX, 3DNow, ~1.5GHz
Ram: 224MB Ram  :sweatdrop: (Visiting my grandparents atm, using their laptop :whistling:)
Graphics Card: Still searching for information regarding that.

If you type dxdiag and go to the Display tab, the graphics card information will be right there for you.

Your link isn't showing up, unfortunately. Can you doublecheck that you've posted the correct address? :]

*edit*

There, you've got it. Now click on the "Display" tab like I suggested. The information will be there.

OH, found it. I was looking for a more known Graphics Card not S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR. Thanks a bunch. I`ll update it and if it works or not, I`ll let you know  :D

S3 Savage, eh..? Then I'm afraid I have some bad news. S3 Savage cards are notoriously bad with PlaneShift. They have awful (if any at all) OpenGL support, so I'm afraid there isn't anything we can help you out with until you get a better card.

Figures. I`ll still try though.

*edit*

Right, it doesnt look crazy anymore, but I can`t really get past the character creation screen due to all the lag.  :thumbdown: But, I will be returning home tomorrow. To which point I shall definately give this game a go! (On my own 10x better laptop... \\o//)  :) Thanks for all your help.
