I was playing the game perfectly fine earlier, going around, hunting for Shining Fire Crystals, materials, and Sparks of Life, just having a fun time exploring the Clockworks. Afterwards, I had to head off to go eat lunch, do some chores, and all that jazz. When I came back, and logged back on, this happened:

Did I accidentally the game? I'm not going to report this in "Technical Issues" just yet, as I'm about to restart my laptop upon submitting this. I'm not sure if it's a random issue that spontaneously occurred, or not, but this is definitely weird.

The second one is because you zoomed in at a wierd angle.

This is like the bug that happened in the arcade before.

I was spawned at that angle. I tried to zoom out from that angle, but nothing occurred. Oddly enough, I was still apparently able to move around, but in a really glitchy style. I noticed my movement because I was looking at the radar, and saw my character was in motion on the map.

As for this, I rebooted my laptop, and the issue is still occurring. I went ahead and verified the integrity of the game cache, and everything was fine. I will go and inspect to see if my graphics drivers need to be updated, but I doubt it, as they've been up-to-date up until this occurred.

I'll likely move this thread over if I fail to find the source of this issue.

Can others see you?

Not sure if this is the same thing but there was an issue with invisible knights in the past.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

This....is quite weird. Have you tried tinkering with the resolution and the graphics quality?

Cyberpony is not experiencing a PICNIC error. How could the problem be in the chair?

I find it amusing when people don't get other people's signatures :P

When you're this swag this world just bows at your knees.

I didn't think my signature could refer to anything more sexual than it already does, but you guys just had to go and make it worse :P

Well, I tried messing with the graphics of the game.

Still, it persisted:

I tried every resolution the game offered, and it still occurred... The thing is that this glitch or something happened spontaneously, out of nowhere, and earlier the day it occurred.. everything was fine.

You are experiencing a ERRONEOUS ERROR!

Odd...one of the UI buttons has glitched up for me just today. Is something going wrong since last patch?

There's no laws defining what syntax one must follow in one's signature, as long as it's consistent. Autofire's never used an adjective starting with a vowel in his signature, so since this is his first time, he can make the grammar as he likes.

@Ontopic

The first image looks like the void; a non-loaded level. It's a stuff-up on the server's end with creating an instance for you to spawn into. The third image is a similar issue, where the level loads fine, but your character does not. I've loaded a level and had a similar issue, but my icon was not on the minimap. I could still chat with the people who I joined, but I was completely invisible and couldn't move.

I believe it means that your client and the server have desynced, most likely because the server is backed up.

Reinstalled, updated, and verified...

All failed to fix this mysterious issue. Is it client-sided, or is something in the previous update leading to these issues somehow?

Also, should I move this to "Technical Issues" now? This is definitely getting complex...
