Have you downloaded the game, assembled the parts and run the installation program before, like described here (http://www.planeshift.it/download.html) ?

Once you have done this, first run the updater because the downloadable version is not the last one. Also, have a look at the guides here (http://www.planeshift.it/playerguide.html) and here (http://planeshift.oodlz.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=4594&boardid=1&styleid=3).

Good luck !

I know, it\'s for safety measure. People use the \"how to start\" question in many different meanings ;)

I guessed that if he could d/l the game, he knows about the start menu, doesn\'t he ? And since this was answered already, I just completed the initial info, couldn\'t hurt.

The file that executes PS is called (PS)Client, in your PS-folder :)

Welcome to PS

Can you post more than 5 words to explain your problem....

What have you done? What OS are your running (WIndows i assume)? Have you error messages or you just don\'t know what to do?

you know, if you give us what is your problem, we can help you ;)

But it is probably better for you to wait next release (one month)

Whenever I run it it does nothing.

These instructions do help.

I assume he is running the program and nothing comes up. I have a similar problem with Internet Explorer at times. It doesn\'t actually launch, so I have to close it from Ctrl+Alt+Delete, then try again.
