I haven't played the game on this computer for a while, so I don't exactly know the cause...
I'm using OpenJDK 8, SUSE 12.3 and the fglrx driver version 14.5. I can start the game, and see everything the way it should be on the login- and control room-screens. But when I then select a mission or click the button to go to Haven, all I get is a black screen. No loading, no music, no nothing, just blackness. I can still access and use the menu using the ESC-key, but that's it.
How can I fix that?
Only black screen instead of loading screen

No, it shows nothing. It's
No, it shows nothing. It's just the black screen. No matter how long I wait, there won't be a loading screen appearing, nor anything else.

im vohtarak, call me by that name
Yes, that's exactly what I said
It has to load the graphics for the loading screen
And its not doing that for you
Do I need to say it a third time?

What are you even doing in
What are you even doing in the tech support forum, just trolling around? Unfortunately doesn't solve the problem.

I've gotten this "crash" a couple times when a large numbers of players were playing on the servers at the same time.
I'm assuming it has something to do with a lost request for instance information.
I resolved it by killing the process [if you're on windows, open task manager and kill java.exe, if you're on linux... ps -af to find the process number and kill the process, if you're on mac... it just works and you don't have this problem according to advertisements].
Closing attempts to log out the player, killing the process locks the player in its current location and re-loading the client attempts to rejoin in the previous location.

Hm, I just tried that, but
Hm, I just tried that, but that didn't work. The only effect it had was that at the next start, I can't log in (it says "Logging in..." forever without anything happening).
every time you start to load something there's a black screen before it shows the 0% loading screen
Its just your computer hasn't loaded anything (at all)
