"In Soviet ??????????????

I too am getting the "Failed to Load Effects" error upon attempting to log in.

I'm using version 0.4.00 under SuSE 10.3., AMD X2 4800+, 2 Gb RAM w/ a 256Mb GeForce 6800. The 3-D Nvidia driver is current. Character creation went okay although I had a few graphics glitches that went away after I restarted. The updater seems to work fine, and says no updates are needed.

I have UDP port 7777 forwarded to my IP.

/servers.xml is

<serverlist>

    <server name="Fragnetics" ip="laanx.fragnetics.com" port="7777"  />

</serverlist>

My account is registered & verified. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance...!

So no one knows how to solve this?

That's a shame, as I'd really like to play the game.

run pssetup and turn off preload models

Didn't work. I've run pssetup with just about every combination.. I have no idea what's wrong.

Thanks anyway. Maybe if I boot Windows and run it I'll get a different result; haven't tried that yet.
