I'v read threw everything and did everything listed but when I try to extract the files I keep getting this error message (I get it for 51 of the files)

C:\Program Files\Plane shift Crystal Blue\PS_addon_015patch.zip: Cannot create bindoc.dll
Access is denied

how should I get around this?

Shipon: Try rebooting your computer, and make sure that you patch immediately after. See if that helps any - you could just have the file currently in use.

Paheiyo: PlaneShift is forever free - that will never change. Just because things may not work immediately for you doesn't mean that we have hidden charges for a "working" version now ;P Can you please tell us what isn't working and what you need help with? Describe your problem and any steps that you might have taken. The more information you give us, the quicker we can help you.

The updater won't work on the Mac, it causes all the programs to crash as soon as I open them. I'm going to have to redownload the whole game now...

thats the same problem Im having...

I rebooted  my comp and the files extracted properly but on the updater it still says the same thing.
and I also get the message that "you are not running the right version of plane shift.  please run the updater"
then when I go to the updater it gives me problems.

When it says "delete something for a full update," why don't you do what it advises? You have the instructions right there for you :] Read the full message, do what it asks, and then post back if you get further problems.

ok heres what the updater says line for line from the time I hit update to the time it stops

Welcome to the PlaneShift updater version 1.1.1.1!
Click Update to start
Cheking registry version...
ouldn't connect to mirror mir2! [end red]
Trying mirror mir1...
There are no new updates available.
Checking for missing/damaged files... This may take a while.
Your updater is newer than the server's... Server is out of date; stopping.


and when I try logging in it tells me that im not running the correct vertion of plane shift and that I have to run the updater

Find the file version.dat inside your main PlaneShift folder, delete it, and run the updater one more time.

If you are able to connect to the mirror's, you should see that message about deleting the version.dat file anyway.  If you "can't find it" just look for the file named version, and when you pass your mouse over it, it should say dat file.

Shipon, as tiring and unfortunate as this sounds, a few people have found that they needed to run the updater many many times before all the updates were downloaded to their system :P Right now I would recommend that you keep trying until a) it finally works, or b) you get fed up and decide to wait for other suggestions. The updater fetched new files for you only after you kept poking it, so maybe you need to continue the poking until it's done.
