Unfortunately the updater -will- take a long time, so best leave it and go do something else while it does its work.

However, there is a chance of speeding it up if you change the active mirror it downloads from. Go to your main PlaneShift directory, find the file updaterconfig.xml, open in notepad, and find this line:

I have gotten into the game for about 20 mintues now and just wanted to say a few things

1. As soon as i got in a fell 4 feet and died, and appeared in what i suppose is the death realm, as unrealist as it is to die from 4 feet, i was fine with that.

2. When i started walking around the death realm i noticed that the Movement system in the game is lacking in many areas, for example it is a very basic moving system, and the camera does not follow properly.

3. it is very easy to get stuck walking on the spot with no way to get out.


I know its Alpha test and thats why i decided later tonight i will give it another go and hopefully itll be a bit more friendly to me after all ive been through to get the game :P

Obviously, that shouldn\'t happen. What race did you choose?

Yes, whenever pretty much anything changes, movement controls are effected for the worse. Even when the goal is to movement better.

You can press M to change the viewing perspective/camera rotation, but those modes are a little lacking. We will change those around sometime soon.

It was a bug... and now it\'s fixed. Don\'t feel bad, Rufus! It happened to me, too.
