Where's the Start Button?

    This may be a stupid question, but where is the button to start the game? I've gotten to a Launcher program which invites me to go to the forums, or look at (nonexistent) premium servers, but no "play the game" button.

    Try and resize your screen. If you drag the corners of your screen a little bit. The button should pop up!

    My Windows taskbar was hiding the button to start the game, just right click the taskbar, go to Properties then tick Hide taskbar and you should be able to click the button and start playing. Hope this helped! :)

    Thank you. Yes, it was a screen resolution problem for me. So far I haven't been able to make the game run on my netbook (which can handle Terraria and Morrowind), but it runs fine on my desktop PC (which runs Skyrim). So now I get to consider hauling my desktop case with me for Christmas break... :raccoon:

    this is probably a nebbish question, but i'm having similar problems, i just installed maverick and i can finally get the game to run, but when it gets to the main screen it seems as if the window is too large for my screen. i haven't been able to find a way to resize my screen, i changed the background resolution, but that had no effect, can someone help me please!!! I'm dying to play this game haha

    Once you get to the title screen (not the launcher), you can change the game's resolution on the Options menu. So find the button in the lower-left even if you have to fiddle with the monitor resolution to make it visible, then fix things on the Options menu. Worked for me on a 1024x768 monitor.
