http://laanx.fragnetics.com/register/ Once you download the game, install it, then open up C:Program Files/ Plane Shift/ and click on updater (Assuming you have Windows) you might have to update a few times in a row depending on your machine and what is going on at the moment at the site. I initially updated 3 times when I installed.
Once you get that updated, open up the Plaen shift Game, then you select Laanx Server (Should have a few numbers following it)
Then you select a character. Hint: In the upper right hand corner are CP points. If you use up more than your allotment the game will tell you you have to select a character and send you back to the first page. If you get sent back more than twice you lose everything you have done.
Once you do that you start the game. Most likely you will find your self in a black world with characters standing around. Wait a few minutes, the world will lighten up.
Then walk around and see what the world has. For further instruction read what others have posted in these forums and you get a fair idea of what to do next.
