Did you download all of the files and then run the Run Me First file first?

Umm wow ok so you didn\'t read anything at all about how to download and read the game I see. Well then how about you read this: Step by Step guide to downlading and installing MB

It is really amazing what can happen when one spends more then 5 seconds to figure something out and does a little reading.

Quoted from the other thread you posted in Tech Help (now deleted):

\"tyvm for one....but i did use the search and nothing came up ....two i posted in the newbie forum first and then relized there was this one and thought this one more aptopriat...\"


Nope, this area is definitely more appropriate for you. ;)

Ok, sorry about that. I always have trouble finding that bloody link too... :/ Gronomist really should add it somewhere to her guide. And so should I....

Bah. Hold on, I\'m looking for it.

There you go. And the answer to your question really depends on what you\'ll be expecting. PlaneShift\'s \"0.2\" release, (the one you\'ll be downloading with the above link), is just a tech demo. There\'s nothing in it but exploring, chatting, picking up crystals, and trying to talk to NPCs (if they\'re even there).

As it says on the download page in really big red writing:

\"Please be aware that a new version (0.3)will be ready very soon. If you have a slow connection we suggest you to avoid downloading the current 0.2 version and wait for the next one.\"

This also means that you\'ll need to download the new game version in a few weeks time. So, download MB if you wish to make some friends before the next client is released to the public. But don\'t expect a \'game\'. :)
