nothing happens when I hit New character
Posted: Sat Mar 29, 2014 3:02 pmHello there,
My problem is this:
I start up the launcher, enter my username and password. The launcher is then authenticating, connecting and finally brings me to the character selection screen. Since I've not been around since the wipe, there is only the option to create a new character. When I click it, the outline of the black figure flash white (e.g. the visual effect plays) but then nothing happens. I can click it again and again, nothing. I've waited several minutes but still nothing happens.
I use Java 7-51 and had the issues Kandarim described in his post "How Oracle screwed up and how to fix it ". After following the instructions there, I get a warning after starting the launcher, asking me if I'm certain to launch this application. If I agree, the salem launcher opens and everything seems fine. (Just saying in case it is relevant)
Things I tried so far:
- reinstalling Java
- reinstalling/ redownloading the salem launcher
- using an existing Java 6-21 build, that lingered on my harddrive
- deinstalling the Java 6-21 build, and installing a fresh Java 7-51, after all Java builds had been deinstalled
- enders client (get's exactly as far as the vanilla one)
- creating a hole new account (since mine was early closed beta)
So if you have some ideas what I could have overlooked, please share them with me. I'm really looking forward in playing on providence.
