Did you update any of your drivers in the last week?
If so, it may be the problem.

ered gorgoroth: Your graphic card is a builtin? Those sucks. Propably that

footpunker60:
I assume you run windows:
Goto Run in the start menu and write dxdiag. Press enter
On the first tab, post your memory, processor and page file
On the display tab, post your Device Name, main driver, driver version approx. total memory and Current display mode

I ran the client with the postfix --console ant this is what came out:

Mounting maps: dungeon hydlaa podium temple tower.
planeshift.application.client: Planeshift Molecular Blue
planeshift.application.client: This game uses Crystal Space Engine created by Jo
rrit and others

        load successful (0 windows, 1 skins loaded.)
aws-debug: setting up global AWS palette...

planeshift.application.client: psEngine initialized.
Loading Race Part Regions...Loading xml regions for race...

Loading xml regions for race...
Loading xml regions for race...
Loading xml regions for race...
Loading xml regions for race...

Loading RPG Data.....Loading RPG Data.....1OK!

And this is exactely the point where it hangs up...
Perhaps you should try the same so you can get out where the error is.

OK, i got it! have to comment the lines:
; Sound renderer
and
; Sound loader
now it works fine again! jipii

Hey, I am just going to really say... Erec, the reason you start out badly is probably because your internet connection... If you EVER notice with most Dial-up servers, when you first start out a download or an upload, it bursts forward with all the speed it can handle, then get worse and worse from there, and by the end, you wish you had never messed with it in the first place.

As for Footpunker, there could be a few things wrong in your download, psclient.cfg...  And many other things... Whats your internet connection?  When you connect to the server, does it actually get to the loading screen?  If so, is it froozen or does it actually CRASH?  What operating System are you running in?  We need system specs out the darn yin yang for anyone to help you out correctly.  Thanks, but once you post that, I will probably see what I can do... But answer these questions first. You may have already said them, but I may have over looked them.

Questions:
What OS (Operating System) are you running on?

Have you tampered you psclient.cfg, planeshift.cfg, sfc.cfg, or anything other configuration file or exe file such as pssetup.exe?

What is your internet connection?

Have you downloaded PS from someone who has tampered the files stated above or any other configuration files?

TempestBloodClaw, as long as you here the music playing, then the world is loading...  Your proc is kind of slow... I am running on a 1.1 and it takes me almost 2 minutes to load.  As for it lagging bad in the beginning that can be your internet connection, you may not have much HD space, you may have programs running in the background, you may have all of these happening infact. Anyways, let me ask you a few questions

Amount of Hard Drive Space Total/Used/Free? (ALL 3 please)

Whats your VCard and its meg intake?

Whats your internet connection?
