PM him people! This is great, being able to talk in real time with the developer and share ideas while testing it, even if you are a chair! Tell all your friends and get over here!

I don't think so, I'm running it straight from the archive and it runs fine for me.

I'm sure hes doing his best to find out whats wrong, It's probably a small problem that can be fixed easily.
And yeah, I always save as PNGs as well, but lately somethings been wrong with my internet and pages fail to load alot so I had to upload many times before it actually uploaded lol.

No monsters or anything like that, but you do have an inventory and stats screen, they're just visual for now and every time you close it and reopen it it's different with random items. I even got Blade of the Ancients once.
Oops, misspelled "Chair" in one of the screenshots, lol.

Ziggman - that's an easy fix. Unfortunately, this means your graphics card doesn't support shaders in hardware. I haven't accounted for that yet...
Super-pre-alpha!

Oh's no's
![Sad :(](images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
. Every time you exit the client it starts you at account 0
![Sad :(](images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
.
Would you be able to retrieve my account number or delete the character/account of speed3b. I had a strange feeling i should have written it down...

haha oh sorry guys
![Sad :(](images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
I actually can't retrieve it, the server doesn't save to a DB yet...but yeah debug logging it would be a quick fix. I'll just re-start the server really quick and everything will be erased... (meh)
edit: you got lucky! it was still on the display screen from earlier. pmed.
