Technical Help: Problems BEFORE entering the game /
« on: January 17, 2006, 01:33:16 am »
Damn, I will have to look into getting a new one. That\'s so dodgy though, can\'t believe they sold me a new computer with such a crappy video card! Thanks for all your help and stuff guys (if I\'d been able to pick up on the video card crappiness in the first place, it would have been okay. As I said, I\'m useless at these things.).

Much love!

Vanta/Vanta LT 2.9.5.8 is the version I\'m using at the moment. It\'s a real pain because I really want to play the game!

I actually just updated my graphics card driver today to see if it would fix the issue, but to no avail. However, I had a lot of trouble doing so because for some reason when I updated it from Nvidia.com, it said it couldn\'t help me - that is, that there were no options for me to download (but then I updated from another site, but I\'m not sure if it worked or not... ja.)

Thank you :) That has helped a lot, but now I am getting this:

It\'s something to do with the textures maybe?

I changed the resolution to and from 800x600 to 1024x768 etc. and it didn\'t make a difference to what I was seeing.

Theres a screenshot, if it helps to understand: http://www.glowfoto.com/viewimage.php?img=15-203742L&y=2006&m=01&t=png&rand=6145&srv=img2

Edit: How do I edit the shortcut? /coughfeelsstupidcough

By the way, thankee very much for your help.

The computer is new, we have 256 or 512 RAM I think, so it should be okay? After changing all that, I can get into the game and stay there, but my problem is that I can only see my character and the characters that move around me - regardless of if I change the contrast/brightness etc.

Thank you all for your help by the way, it sucks being a newbie ^____^

Edit: And yes, I did just search, I just tried updating my drivers and it didn\'t change that much (except that the loading screens weren\'t as pixelly but that really wasn\'t all that much of a problem).

Edit edit: http://www.glowfoto.com/viewimage.php?img=15-203742L&y=2006&m=01&t=png&rand=6145&srv=img2 This is what I see, if that helps.

Thanks! I tried that, and this time although it got me a little farther (it loaded and then loaded a bit of the world - I could just see my character but there was darkness around her) it froze again with the error message;
Something unexpected happened in PlaneShift Crystal Blue.
Details: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION AT 00C877FB
Would you like to save a diagnostic file?
Yes/No

I\'m not sure how to access to check what video card I have, but I checked the Display settings and under \"Adapter\" it says;
NVIDIA Vanta/Vanta LT
If that might be it? (I\'m pretty clueless ^___^)

Well, I\'m a newbie to this game. I just installed PlaneShift, then ran the Updater as well (although, it said there were some sort of errors there, but it ran through okay I think), the configured it using Setup etc. etc. Now, I have registered, and created my character, but when I go to actually play it goes to the loading screen and fully loads. When it\'s done loading, all of a sudden the program freezes and I get a dialogue box come up, saying something about an error and do I want to save some sort of script (at least, that happened the first time, when it froze the second time and I went to view the error message it was also frozen). Any suggestions as to what I can do?
