Whenever I try loading Spiral Knights, the down-loader pops up and it starts downloading data. The problem is that it stops a various points of downloading, and doesn't move from there. It has completed the initial download a few times, but once I log in, another download screen appears, saying it's finishing the download. The furthest I got with this was 9% before this froze.

I've been having trouble trying to patch the desktop client for Spiral Knights. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times and I've got my Java updated too. I'm not sure what it is at this point. The game will launch fine from the website. I just prefer to use the desktop client. When trying to patch the desktop client I get a message saying "We were unable to download the necessary files after five attempts. You can try running the application again, but if it fails you may need to uninstall and reinstall."

I tried doing a T2 run on the Diamond Pawn gate, and when I went down from Moorcroft, the loading screen got to ~40% before becoming extremely slow. Like 1% per ~5 seconds. Eventually it loaded, but it never reached 100%, and the level didn't load correctly:

It looked like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v95/Zerus/003.png

I've had this occur on both of Depth 9's levels. There were also issues with elevation in areas with different altitudes.

It was working fine when I logged out about an hour ago. I didn't delete any files or change anything during that time.

Even with a great PC and graphics card I get very crappy frame rates, especially in FSC or the Ironclaw Munitions Factory.
I’ve tried running the game using 64-bit Java, which doesn’t help at all. I also tried various launch options, tweaking 32-bit Java to allow more RAM usage, including amounts ranging from 600-1500MB, which also did not help at all.
I am currently running the game in compatibility mode at 1280x800 resolution (widescreen monitor) with all graphics settings as low as possible. Vertical sync option only makes the problem worse.

I think this thread belongs to the Technical Issues section so I put it here.
As the title says, I cannot load the GM support page. I tried it on Google Chrome and IE9 but none of them worked. Is it just my computer behaving strangely or what?

When i start up spiral knights i see all the graphics but no text appears. Is this because i don't have a certain font installed on my computer? Or is it something else? I am running spiral knights in debian linux. It use to work fine when i had ubuntu, but ubuntu stopped working.

Hi there i've always wanted to play sk without the hassle of always restarting my computer and starting over when my display driver fails. i was wondering whether or not there is something i can do to prevent it from failing without having to upgrade my pc. i followed the instructions to check whether or not my pc has the minimum requirements to play and it appears to me that i do. so i was wondering why this would happen. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

since day one ive been using my xbox 360 controller to play. was even playing day before yesterday and it worked fine. now all of a sudden i login and my controller is not working. even when i go into key mapping it is not registering.

ive tried restart the game, ive tried restarting steam, ive trid unplugging the usb reciever starting the game pugging it back in and during the game and when its closed, ive pretty much tried everything short of reinstalling.

anyone else have this issue? anyone know a fix for it? thanks

Just as the title suggests, in any moment while playing Spiral Knights (mostly vital times) the playing screen turns blue and shortly after crashes. This happens to me almost daily 1-2 times per day. I really hate this because I usually do boss runs and not only do I have to restart the entire tier because of this error, I also waste precious CE during the run.

Am I the only one to experience this or is this game related?

I would appreciate a relevant answer. Have a good day.

Hi, I need help whenever i try to play sk a message pops up and says:
