Punctuation helps a ton on boards.

I presume you are on Windows - so have you installed the patch? Follow the "Install Instructions" sticky in this forum section: download the patch.zip, open it, and take all the files inside that patch out and put them into your main PlaneShift folder. This is by default C:\Program Files\PlaneShift Crystal Blue. When you get a window asking if you want to overwrite, click on Yes. After that, run the game updater: updater.exe
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

Please try to use punctuation - I have a difficult time understanding such long run-on sentences. You have a lot of time to spend writing your messages on the forum, so take it. It really helps :}

If you have downloaded IZArc, read the help file on how to unzip files. This is a very basic computer operation, and we cannot simplify every step further and further. Every application should come with some sort of support, so look through it and figure out how to unzip and extract. You need to put those files into your main PS directory, and then run the updater.
