Does it say "Loading...", or is it completely black?

:lol:

On-topic: does the black screen show "Loading..." in the center, or are you not even getting that part?
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.

How is what i suggested off topic? I had the exact problem he had sometimes with was black screen sometimes with was white. Game would load fine but all it was was black or white screen. I had 3 different versions of java installed. Removing them all and then rebooting and re-installing the latest version fixed it.

There is a problem like you described, caused by certain internet provider in Russia. Where do you live, Safou?

Not very likely if the screen is completely black rather than a loading-screen.

The only way I can think of for debugging this is for Safou to get a thread dump of the client process while it's being black.
