help please

[Kleio Orpheus]

ive searched the forum trying to see if i could fix this myself. i did the console thing and i am getting a few errors when i try to join the server. i tried to find the log for it but it wasnt in data/config. ive made my guy and when i go to connect to go in game i get a few errors in the console, no kind of windows error. then it crashes after trying to load the world. my player name is my username on here, and if i could find the log for the console maybe i will be able to help me. any idea to why this is happening?

Some more information would be helpful. When you say console it sounds like you using linux or os10 and not windows. specifying what your operating system is would help, if it is a mac or linux system there or specific forums for each of them. Also it would help if you list your system specifications: processor speed; base memory; video card and video memory. I run in Linux with a terminal open and I see plenty of error messages but none of those prevent me from playing the game.

i typed -console at the end of the target line on the shortcut, i saw where someone said try it in one of the post. i meet all the system specs. im usin xp, 1.4ghz, 256 ram, gf3 64mb card. tried every driver i could find, and ice tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and even redownloading the game

It would help us figure out what's wrong if you post the exact errors you are getting.

Your error log by the way isn't in /data/config, but right in the main directory. It should be called errorlog.txt.

[Karyuu]

What exact error are you getting if you run the game? In a pop-up window?

[Kleio Orpheus]

naw, no kind of pop up. i did the -console thing in the target line and when its tryin to load the world a whole lot of different errors come up in the console. it tries to load the world, then goes black and crashes

[Karyuu]

What happens when it crashes? It just disappears?

[Kleio Orpheus]

yea

[ThomPhoenix]

Don't add the -console in the shortcut path, but use it in CMD.
So go to Start-->CMD-->F:\planeshift\psclient.exe -console to start it up properly.
Of course don't use F:\ but wherever your copy of PS is installed.
After that the CMD shouldn't shut down after PS crashes, at least it doesn't do that here.

Also, use the updater and make sure your Planeshift is completely updated.

Good luck!
