Crash Cycle... HELP

[blaaarg]

My game keeps crashing when i head out towards the woods from Hydlaa. Whenever i went back in i m at the part right before the game crashes. However after asking for help from the admin ppl,i was told to use the portal( the post) and when i did the game began loading and then crashed. Now when i log in again the game is at the loading screen but after awhile it just crashes loading halfway. So i m stuck in a "crash" cycle.... HELP

Oh and I tried running the updater but it wont run on my com for some reason. I use Mac OSX 5.7

I also tried uninstalling then installing it again. Didnt work either...

hi, have you tried out these updaters?

http://www.planeshift.caarrie.org/updater.html

they may not be the newest version (I can't tell),
but I would try them out, they are probably able to update themselves
maybe this could be a first step before trying anything else...

Hello,
I've had the same problem as both of you. Here's what I did (after scanning the forums).

When I got stuck in the "crash cycle" create a new character (go through it quickly if you don't want another character) and make a petition asking a GM to move your other character to a safe place.

Then while in game (on either character) go to Options. Then click details and lower the FPS cap (around 70 should be fine). That should fix the map loading.

Hope this helps!

hats off to dralion1221 for providing an actual fix-suggestion!

As often, it would benefit the mac community greatly if there was feedback from the original posters,
whether a suggested solution fixed their problem or not. Don't you think?
I suppose the lack of feedback is credit to the absorptive potential of the game ...

XD well assuming they don't come back means it worked.  It really just takes some time to flip through the forums to find good suggestions cause the one I told was told by someone else in the forums.
