Well, I am not running a very fast computer, but definitely fast enough. 2.7ghz processor and a Geforce4 series graphics card with T3 connection. All I want is fullbright capabilities in Hydlaa to reduce lag and better performance in that area since it drastically improved the lag on the road to BD. I may be going too far but I would like to propose fullbright capabilities everywhere until the team has fixed the lag issue.

Your my hero. it worked thx man.

"The current required client version is 0.4.000

It's also highly recommended that you install the new package clean (as in uninstalling the old version first, and not just installing the new over the old).

The updater is  working but You cannot update from version .3.020 to .4.000 using the updater included with your download.

Things you can keep from your older client:

quest notes/chat log files
shortcuts
other options saved in controls.xml
screenshots

*please note that the location to where these files are located on your hard drive have been changed in this new version, and also that the way they are saved have been over hauled. As such, it is recommended that you go with a clean install this time, and copying over these old files could cause adverse issues with the game and are to be used at your own risk.*

Just copy these out, uninstall, and install the new package.

Folders/Directories:
When you installed PlaneShift, for example, it asked you where you wanted to put it on your hard drive.  The default location is "c:\program files\PlaneShift Steel Blue", and chances are that's where you put it.  The folder in your start menu contains links which link to the programs in their actual locations, inside that folder.  That's where the stuff is. 

To get to it, open Windows Explorer by right clicking on "My Computer" or similar and clicking "Explore".  Assuming PS is in its standard location, click through the tree on the left to "Local Disk (C:)", "Program Files", then "PlaneShift Steel Blue".  You'll see a bunch of files on the right side.  These are PS's game files.

User specific files such as logs and screen shots are now saved here:

Windows: In the user home directory, usually in "Document and Setting\Username\Application Data\PlaneShift
Linux: ~/.PlaneShift
Mac OS X: ~/Library/Application Support/PlaneShift

What if there is no application data folder? which there isnt? how would i be able to reate one and start having planeshift save the chat logs to it?

Well, I need a good way to make money. I would also like to craft my own weapons/armor. I realize that this game is still in early stages(BUT STILL DAMN GOOD) and I was just wondering what all is possible to mine and to do with what you mine. Like, can you make armor, weapons, jewelry and things like that. ALSO IF YOUAN PROVIDE ME WITH AN EXPLANATION OF MINING AND SMITHING IT WOULD BE
"-->EXTREMELY<--" HELPFUL. thx again.
