You have only one problem... that the updater is not working. Due to incompatible changes on server it is necessary that you update your client before you can connect.

Maybe you can give us more information about the problem... what is the error-message you get? if no error message, what symptoms do you see? what operating system are you using (Win98/WinME) causes currently a lot\'ta troubles with the updater.

-> Give more information about your updater-problem and we will try to help you.

ok, i found the solution, for i had the same problem, you have to go into your directory (ex. C:\\Program Files\\PlaneShift Crystal Blue) and look for a file called \"update\" double click and follow the instructions

I assume you are using RPMs and do not compile it on your machine... Because after CVS update (new message.h!) and recompile I could connect without any problems.

I have no idea when there will be an update for RPMs...

There is no "update" file.

O_o

Then that\'s strange.  You get the latest XP update?

Well, of course you did... right?

Update came out, like, months ago.

:P

What file type is it and in what directory might I find it SPECIFICALLY? BTW, is it \"update\" or \"updater\" or \"updateconfig\" or something like that?

I got the same problem.... I try to update though, and the updater thingy trys to update its self first.

It goes:

Welcome to the PlaneShift updater version 1.0.2.1
Click update to start.

(So I click update)

Downloading registry...
Loaded registry.
Server has another updater, going to fetch it..
Downloading registy...
Loaded registry.
Updating updater to version 1.0.2.1

Its trying to update itself to what it already is! The only thing is it allways trys to do that,  and never gets to updating PS!
After it says all that, a pop up thingy comes up. It has a black background and says up the top C:\\WINDOWS\\COMMAND.COM
This screen does nothing, I have waited and hoped it would but nothing happens. And I have no idea what to do with it. So I try the updater again, and it redose it all over again! Whats going on!  ?(

@Satha: I think you are using Win98/WinME, so please read this thread for a workaround (the auto-updater is not fully functional for Win98/ME)...

i had the same problem as this guy but i managed to update it and so the server is now  \"laanx\"  and it then says \"The server is not running or not reachable. Please check the website or forums for more info\" do i need to update again or unload every thing and reload it?
Or do i have an older version.
I have windows xp will that do any thing i.e stop me playing as well?
