I'm currently having a few problems with textures and crashing in spiral knights.

The glitched textures are some that start appearing as short as 45 minutes into playing the game. these include weird texture replacements and mist bomb mist looking like blocks/square pictures.

This has started appending since I got a new laptop so I think its the computer hardware that is causing the problems but just in case I followed the steps to try and get rid of the problems "Technical Problems? Read this first!"- http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/48

I had uninstalled spiral knights then I allowed java and javaw through my windows fire wall, then re installed spiral knights. It had not worked but ever since I had done this spiral knights has started crashing a lot more frequently.

-Seperate Problem, Whenever spiral knights has crashed, my java/Spiral knights window had always become unresponsive once I had started spiral knights back up again. This was when I was playing the final dept to GitM and the party has became restricted so no one could join for the final battle/loot.

Before seeing the post about technical problems, whenever I got the bugged textures then went through steam to view the integrity of the game cache, there was always some missing, which made me think that it was the firewall, keeping these files out.

I would love to get any help with this because having to leave in the middle of the game to have REGULAR textures is a real hassle. Crashing in the middle of a level is a pain. I have sent a request for help on the Request support on the wiki but I have not gotten a email response yet. Hopefully this can get resolved and I can enjoy spiral knights how it was meant to be played.

Thanks in advance for any help. Krilixtwo
