Hi reckoning,

Are you running the patcher as Admin?

Also, how did you find out about us if you don't mind me asking?

Cheers,
Sam

Sweet, cheers for the info.

Is there a patcher version on the patcher? It should be V2.0.4. Also, in your Chronicles directory is there a mir2.exe? We have had many reports of some virus checkers deleting the .exe believing it to be a virus, but this is a false positive.

Have you allowed the mir.exe through your firewall?

Solution:
1) When stuck, hit "Alt + Enter" to swap screen modes, this has been known to allow users to get past this issue.

2) If your password contains special characters then please contain a member of the Chronicles Development Team as this could also stop you from being able to connect to the character select screen.

make sure your sound drivers are up to date.
I remember awhile ago a black screen was fixed by updating audio drivers, don't know why that would do anything but it happened to someone.

That's really frustrating. fair play for perseverance so far.

So when you run the patcher, it says no more files needed and the play button lights up

You press the play button and it launches into a black screen?
Have you pressed Alt and Enter when in the black screen (this changes it to windowed mode)
You have the chronicles .exe in the specific folder?
You have right clicked it and gone to setting and ticked run as admin?
Is anything else ticked? (most people i've spoken to run as windows XP sp3 for best results) worth a shot...

have you tried just clicking the exe instead of the patcher?

have you allowed mir through your antivirus or disabled it all together?


I'm no techie by a long shot but the answers might help others identify the issues.
