Cannot enter game world

[crystal88]

hi, after the recent update i have the following problem
* i start rolauncher and i log in
* i click on "enter game world", some updates are downloaded
* screen resolution change seems to happen
* big black nothing. Not even the NGD splash screen is rendered

(no comment)

Linux x64 (if its a linux-only problem then please move it to the linux thread - i've read a "freeze on login" topic there but im not sure if thats the same problem - that guy sucks in english)

reinstall didn't help

additionals
game.cfg
glxinfo output

What are your pc specifications?

Not sure how RO is installed on linux exactly but you could try the following,

Open your NGD studios folder, live server, and delete the following files;

'Character.dsb' 'Character.idx'

I dont want to make any false statements, but these seem to be corrupt files which have fixed black screens in the past, you could try this first.

I forgot to mention that you might want to put antialiasing of in OpenGL, this is also causing black screen issues.

running linux, and cant log in at the moment. I'm getting stuck at the splash that usually shows "checking firewall". There's the popup, but no text. no resolution change either, so this may be a diferent problem.

Could you go a bit more into detail, are you getting any further then the firewall check?

nothing beyond the firewall check. the text also does not appear, so I dont think the firewall check is actually reached.

Is RO still active on the background or are you crashing to desktop?
