can't start the client
« on: December 28, 2004, 05:44:36 pm »
After the Installation of crystal blue I tried to start Planeshift but the result was only an empty DOS-window that did nothing else than remaining empty .

my system:
Win 98SE
Athlon XP 2000+ on some Epox Mainboard
Geforce 4 ti 4400
edit: now there are 512 MB Ram
 
I would be very happy if someone could help me with that.

the difference between a wise man and a fool is that the wise man knows that he knows nothing while the fool doesn\'t even know that.

Things to try...

1) Re-install PlaneShift: Crystal Blue
2) Run updater
3) Turn all options to minimum
4) Wait untill someone else will answer in this topic :P


You can try, but you shall fail! Seek us not, we shall find you.

I have the same and on IRC I heard the upgrade would solve this. Problem is that the upgrade server is down and nobody wants to explain why...

As far as i have seen, there was a bug in the last update rendering people who updated before the server was taken down to find themselves with an unstartable PS.
My _guess_ is that it will come back up when they have found, squashed and developed a fix for the bug.

the problem i have is that i can only run it under 256 colors

but then everything is screwy so that won\'t work, and i updated my client moments before the updater went offline. and my client is still messed up :P

but try to put ur comp in 256 colors maybe i\'d help.

changing to 256 colors doesn\'t change anything. But thx for your advice.
I will just have to wait for the update server.
