Please use your own thread. Technical questions often require lengthy responses. On a similiar note, 0.3.015 will not work on the Laanx server. The server requires 0.3.016 currently. This means to run it, you will need to build and compile the client yourself. While there are no step-by-step instructions for MacOSX builds, you can read the instructions here to get the gist of it: http://planeshift.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/planeshift/planeshift/docs/compiling.html

Seeing as the 0.3.015 builds is the only one available for download, and the updater will not open either, which I have seen remarked by other people experiencing this problem, I don't think it's off topic at all. This is a bug that several people are experiencing, so there must be something common in wrong that warrants discussion.
