So today i tried starting up ms, and the patch window came up. It patched, and then i clicked "Play", and it took me to the nexon website. I clicked start, and nothing happened. I tried restarting my comp, it didnt work, and i tried starting directly, it didnt work. Help anyone?

Nothing has changed for me since before the Evan patch. Multiple different errors, if I get past entering my PIC, I end up lagging, freezing, and DCing within 1 minute of logging in.

same thing happen to me too. if that the case then you have to go to your ms folder and use the game launcher instead. a window will appear asking some stuff and click START THE GAME.

If you're playing MS in compatibility mode then take it off. Right click MS>>Properties>>Compatibility>>Un-check the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"

Im not playing in compatibility mode, i run regular windows 7 if that helps. I tried clicking the game launcher thing that says only use it if theres a problem wif the website, but it does nothing. I just click it, comp asks for permission, i click okay, the blue circle thingy appears next to my mouse, and then BOOM, it goes away and nothing happens

i uses two comp. window xp and window 7. clicking the gamelauncher works for me. if youre getting the compatibility noticfication then just run the progran after clicking start the game and wait for the final window and click START.

Ive been using the gamelauncher since hte last patch and its not working now. I changed the compatability settings and little nad tried run as admin. I goes through the questions like, do you want to run this program blah blah, then it doesnt actually start. It acts like its loading then it doesnt do anything.

I'm also having this problem. Clicking Start Game on the website does nothing. Clicking Start Game from the GameLauncher.exe just closes the GameLauncher window, and then MS doesn't open. (Note: I've been using the GameLauncher since the Evan patch. It just stopped working today after last night's little patch.) I've reinstalled MS twice, to no avail. (Running Windows 7, btw.)

What thread, Tom? I just read something that said to update my video card drivers, so I did that. I also updated DirectX, and nothing... >.<
