Won't Load, but cant find a thread that covers it

[nightsedge]

I have checked through the forums and while I have found similar problems this one is a minor deviance.  Regardless the problem still exists

Everything functions well until I select a character and the game begins to load.  Then I get this happy message each time:

Something unexpected happened in PlaneShift: Crystal Blue
Details: EXCEPTION_FLT_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO at 00532572

This is a slightly different dump than the others covered by previous threads.   would just send the dump file in, but that service is down at the present time and Im stuck with the program not working.

It is not that I am not patient, nor that I dont want to find a resolution.  Its just I have tried a few times over the last few months and this is always the case.  I just want to play the game.

Thanks in advance for any help possible

Ensure that you\'ve run the updater in recovery mode (avaiable on the planeshift menu group) so you have the last version of the game avaiable.
That said, if you crash with that same cause everytime you try to launch the game, it would be nice that you detail which steps you took (perhaps maybe including the char past choices) since that message denotes that a float has been tried to be divided by cero, which caused the crash. Most commonly that\'s due a variable that has no right value when the function that makes the division is called, so perhaps if that\'s a recurrent error for you, providing the steps you followed could help the devs to track that problem down.

I have created more than one character, yet the error is consistent among them all, and I do what I can to ensure they are not identical characters.

I ran the updater in recover mode, alas, it was not fruitful either.

Any other suggestions?  Thank you again by the way for the input.

Game crashed.. I went to a party.. came back and there was the same error message while loading the World/Gui... have no Solution yet.. tried to install everything new and uptade.. no success. On my other pc it works.. :-(

It could be something with your PC, then? Would it be possible for you to transfer over the working version of PlaneShift from your other PC to this one?

I now installed new grafic drivers --> same problem.
I now try to remove the game another time.
Last time i didnt remove it completely, i only installed the game to the same location to overwrite the files.. stupid because some files stayed perhaps like before...

*edit*

ok it works again. Dont really know where the problem was located.looked into the psclien.txt which is little bit like a startup log of the loading process.. found errors an the tip to start ps with the -relight option. Did that. still same problem but slightly other errors in psclient.txt... started the pssetup.exe and klicked top-right the button then on arena (my character were there)  and finally on relight maps under the list of maps. waited the process to end, then klicked launch. while loading world ps totally hung up. killed process. totally different error in psclien.txt... run updater--> found 800 files in one archieve that had to be updatet (were about 5.5 MB).. After the update it started normally :-D

@nightsedge
If that doesnt help you look into the psclient.txt Perhaps we get a clue out of it :-) Good Luck!
