Excuse the noob question. Where\'s the console? How do I find it? it runs in windowed mode by default for me. Also could the loading time be changed? Not by me,  but for like the final version.

Okay, I downloaded the game, followed Cha0\'s advice for updating, (used the .jar\'s they worked great!) and so I have created a character. I use my character and I get to the loading screen, the bar fills up (loads) and then it goes empty giving me a blank bar, again and it won\'t load anything. Is this my router/firewall? Is it something I did wrong with the updater? Help? Please? Thanks in advance.
