getting count down then blank terrain in offline mode. no cars etc.
That's troubling -- I thought inclusion of "D3DCompiler_42.dll" was meant to prevent that. Updating DirectX fixed it for others, but it's a shame it needs that. If anyone has some advice that'd be much appreciated.

Bugger. I can't reproduce it here. The lobby seems to work fine on my end. Does the crash come with any error messages? I remember having inexplicable crashes a long time ago while testing the lobby, and they didn't happen if I logged into the website first (don't ask me why). But that hasn't happened in a long time, for me.

I'm not sure I fully understand you, but you're saying that when you start the game the mouse goes crazy? Do you have any gamepads/joysticks plugged in? If so, one of them can control the mouse, and it might be what's giving you trouble.

It would be nice if the game saved the login information (check a box first).
Changing the textfield pressing TAB and login with ENTER, would be nice, too.
Yes, that makes sense. Same question to you, though: any error messages with the lobby-screen crash?

some little suggestions: The game doesn't show up in the taskbar until I moved it around. I succeeded to log in 3 times... maybe it is a good thing to prevent this in later releases(to prevent account sharing) for testing it might be an idea to lower the fps_max variable, so multiple clients can run smooth on a single computer. It is not important, but you could hide the "login succeeded" bar after a few seconds.
Yeah, I have a system in place for preventing the same user from being online on multiple computers, but have it disabled for now. In regards to the taskbar icon -- I don't really know what to do about that I have been having that issue as well for a couple of versions now.
EDIT: Yeah, you're right, "login succeeded" should go away on its own. I'll probably change my alert function to have an optional timer, so that unimportant alerts go away on their own, while important ones (like login failed) stay up until closed.
I've got a server up now, and it should be up for most of the day, so please try and join and let me know how that goes. I really want to get this working!
Thanks everyone

EDIT2: Apparently someone tried to connect to my server and failed? I've set up port-forwarding. I think. I don't really know how to test it.
Okay...
