  • Added NPCs! They can have a skin and hold tools just like normal characters.

Wow! That's awesome!

So it's basically a Character without a Player? Or is it different? (I'd check it out if I could get the program to load...)

It's a character without a player.

Why can't you get the game to load?

It's almost definitely my slow Internet connection in conjunction with my slightly slow Vista laptop.

It says: Unable to launch application: Buildism. Error: Connection timed out: connect.

Seems simple enough to me... yet ROBLOX works okay-ISH, and you'd think that would be harder to connect to.

Causes of connection timeout errors in Java:

Quote:Connection Timeouts (assuming a local network and several client machines) typically result from

a) some kind of firewall on the way that simply eats the packets without telling the sender things like "No Route to host"

b) packet loss due to wrong network configuration or line overload

c) too many requests overloading the server

d) a small number of simultaneously available threads/processes on the server which leads to all of them being taken. This happens especially with requests that take a long time to run and may combine with c).

So check your network settings, and make sure your firewall isn't blocking anything.
