I tried launching both from the web and offline. It downloads and loads everything, then the screen stutters black and the "Jave stopped working" message appears.
I have Windows 7 64 bit, latest version of java.

All the graphics are displaying fine for me except for monsters, vendors' bodies, player/NPC bodies (heads and weapons are fine), those little bird thingies in Haven, and explosive boxes. All appear as a flat colour, which varies between white, blue and brown depending on what level i'm on.

I've tried updating java and fiddling with my graphics card settings but no dice.

Any ideas what could be causing this and how i could fix it? It's such a beautiful game and I hate to be missing parts of it.

Windows XP Pro SP2
ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600
Java version 6 update 21

I'm willing to bet its because A. Things just went up or B. They aren't up yet and I pulled the trigger way to fast on responding.

But Using Chrome or IE7 (blagh) It doesn't load.

I downloaded the installer, ran it. Tried reloading the page in Chrome. Hopped to IE7. Same thing in both.

Gets to 100%, says launching. Nothing happens.

Restarted my machine. Same thing. Curious. I don't believe I've missed any java updates but I'm going to check just to make sure.
