have patience :P
not everybody who plays the game is here on the forums 24/7 :P

anyway, it sounds liek the heightmaps aren't being rendured by your pc.
what kind of video hardware do you have?

in the meantime, you should be *somewhat* fine on zoric and sabrada now
paint gave me the idea of granting you an item called a diving suit.
it lets you be in water without blowing up, so you'll atleast be able to play on zoric and sabrada.

ok, he came on zoric and the divingsuit had no effect.

turned off water damage, and he still kept blowing up, even after a relog.

lowered sea level to 0 and it s working as a temp solution for now.

there appears to be random issues of the client not downloading the heightmap i was trying to track it down the other night in the debugger without a lot of success. some things that may help...

delete all the files in your maps directory.

ask the world owner to do a *resetpos command on your charachter as sometime it seems the spawn position is outside the physical world.

if it is a problem for several people the world owner can try resaving the heightmap in a graphics editor and rename it.

goto the instilation folder, go into the maps folder, select all the files, and hit delete :P

if you installed to the default location, your maps folder will be
c:\program files\TheUniversal\Clients\Maps

can you check that the maps folder has got the appropriate write permissions which could explain why you cant delete or download maps ??
