Do you think it\'s just loading for long time as was said that it could happen?

The first time you are entering the wonderfull world of PlaneShift, the dynamite in your computer MAY explode if you press any key during the loading world state

Just leave it for like 2 hrs and then come back.
Remember: Don\'t touch any key

Make sure you have updated graphics drivers, and enough RAM to play. 512mb is the norm. You should definitely have more than 216mb if you run WinXP.

And please use the \'Edit\' button to avoid triple-posting and double-posting in future. Thanks. :)

Post by: Shedirot on March 17, 2004, 04:23:05 pm: where do i have to click it?
I doesn\'t give me the option to send a report.
Just closes the window and sometimes sais that the .exe failed.

Post by: Androgos on March 17, 2004, 04:30:46 pm: No windows error?
Just closes the window?
Strange..

Can we get your system specs?

Post by: Shedirot on March 17, 2004, 04:36:46 pm: Windows XP.
Pentium 3 1000 GHZ.
512 RAM.
Gforce 2.

Can it be because i have only 2-3 GB free in each driver?
But i think it should be enough...

It sais:
\"drwtsn32.exe failed - application error \"

\"The application failed to initialize properly (0x000142)\"

Post by: Androgos on March 17, 2004, 04:53:52 pm: Doctor Watson..
Never seen it crash, but I\'m not supprised.

1 GHz is kinda little, but it runs on lower.

But Doctor Watson shouldn\'t crash, it\'s a kinda intergrated part of the system in XP

I\'m short of solutions right now
