I only have a steam account, and it's not recognizing my steam username as a spiral knights account. How am I supposed to play the game now? Is it even going to recognize steam:######################## as a username?
UPDATE: I try steam:########### and it crashes the game. Hooray.

SO, after reinstalling java and SK, restarting computer, verifying steam cache, installing, verifying game cache afterwards, and FINALLY running the game, i find that loading anything in this game now takes BLOODY forever, and soon after loading anything, the server will purposefully lose connection with me as soon as i so much as open an auction house window, a friend joins me in lobby, i check CE price, open mail box, visit a shop, or simply DAIN to leave the game window idle for a minute of inactivity.

Since I got my new PC, after a few minutes SK would begin to scramble up textures and then would eventually crash. However, I found a way around this by allocating extra RAM to SK and switching to 64-bit Java, and after that the game ran fine.

Following the latest update today, I launched the game, clicked to learn the new recipes for the fire crystals, and upon learning the third one, my computer suffered a crash that locked up my desktop completely. I forced a restart on my computer and tried launching Spiral Knights again. But instead, the screen would flicker black twice and then nothing would happen. java.exe remains running and according to Steam, I'm playing Spiral Knights, but ultimately I'm not. These are the following tasks I performed to attempt to get the game working again.

- Validating game files on Steam

Ok i'm just kinda annoyed at this. I click play and then it says validate and then gets to downloading files. It almost always gets to 73% then the game stops downloading and the time remaining just goes up. I mean once it went up to as much as 10 minutes. Please do something. On almost all other updates i did not have this problem.

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.

Yeaaaaaaaaaah So what do I need to do to fix: This, That, That, and, This, and also This

forgot my password and created a new account. it is now tied to my Steam account's new?

When i click away from my window it just goes away and whenever i start it now it just says not responding

I am having a problem when I launch spiral Knight. first when i try to start it it opens like usual but then it Closes itself, but it is still running. and when I launch it a second time it works like normal. but if i Close down the process of the first launched game (using taskmanager) Before starting a second time the game will Close down. in conclusion the problem is that I have to start spiral Knight twice in order to play it.
