I remeber that series of errors occuring when I didn\'t have the art installed... However, if you made a character, then you have the art instlled apparently... It wouldn\'t let you proceed through the char creation otherwise...
Was the segfault right when it told you you were linkdead? If so, try making another character and going through real fast (stats don\'t matter at the moment). This seems to fix the linkdead error for some...
And by 2d mode do you mean software rendering mode?
As I\'m sure you\'re aware, 2d is two dimensional (flat) and 3d has depth... And Planeshift is a
3D MMORPG
