How long ago did you play, and have you made any changes to your system since then?

I would like to see your system specs anyway, if you wouldn't mind - having such information is never "extra." Also check that your graphics card drivers are updated, that you've installed the most recent version of PlaneShift and that you didn't install it over an older version.

Ok
my specs:
Win XP SP2
2.1 Ghz Proccesor
512 mb RAM
DX 9.0c
Nvidia GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU
(I am posotive my graphics card is up-to-date)
1024*768 resolution and 32 bit color quality

I played this game about a month or 2 ago

Just a quick bit o' info for you,  PS  uses OpenGL, not DX.  So the version of DX you have shouldn't effect the game.

If it isn't too much trouble, please add your driver version anyways.  We do get people that insist that it isn't their driver version, yet when they finally state it, that's what the problem is.  So we like to not assume anything.  Nothing aginst you personally, it's just how things are.

Thanks a ton :] Also if I may add one more request - can you take a screenshot of what you see when you run the game? [ You can find a how-to for posting images in this forum here. ] Your description first makes me think that something is up with your drivers or card.
