IGN is same as here, connected to my Steam account.

The game launched normally and just fine earlier today but when I went to launch it a second time, it brought me to a non-Steam login screen despite launching Spiral Knights from Steam. I tried validating files and it did find 10 unvalidated, downloaded but didn't fix my problem.

Things I have done...
Validating files. Validated once with 10 failing to validate, downloaded them and tried again. Problem still exists.
Validated files again. 9 files failed to validate, tried an uninstall/reinstall and tried again. Problem still exists.

When I click "Play" on Steam, the Spiral Knights icon will open up, and then it will disappear with a new Spiral Knights icon following it. Then, absolutely nothing happens. No black screen, no loading screen, nothing appears. Finder identifies that I am running Spiral Knights since it shows Spiral Knights on the upper left hand corner. I am running the most up-to-date Java version and every other game that uses Java is able to run perfectly fine. In addition, I was playing Spiral Knights flawlessly the last two days, and it just so happened to be unresponsive today.

my sprite wont attack , i have to press the button many times.

So why is my desktop Icon like this?: http://i.imgur.com/4b3yFZN.jpg

Already tried changing it but failed o. o

Whenever i change the resolution the window get closed.

I remember when the game first game out when the game would freeze up, lose connection/lag-out, or crash you would be able to open up the game again quickly, log back in and you'd be rejoined where you were (usually dead) in your party. There have been several times now where this has happened and I log back in only to find myself at the ready room completely ABANDONED from my run. This is especially frustrating when it happens in vanaduke (which is a lag-fest in itself.).

I think OOO named this incorrectly.

Look... the comparison.

As you can see, the "Horned Owlite Shield" has no horns.

As you can see, the "Wise Owlite Shield" HAS horns...

What the problem is... I think the names should be "switched around".

Ever since the latest update, I've been getting weird graphical bugs and glitches. I've tried toggling all of the video settings, including compatibility mode. I have the latest Java, and have the latest video card drivers. My graphics card is a Sapphire Radeon HD 7850 1GB.

I have pictures of the glitches on Steam Cloud:
