[[Image:LogicBug.jpg|50px|right|"It has been just so in all of my inventions. The first step is an intuition, and comes with a burst, then difficulties arise—this thing gives out and [it is] then that "Bugs"—as such little faults and difficulties are called—show themselves and months of intense watching, study and labor are requisite before commercial success or failure is certainly reached..." -Thomas Edison.]]
Read the crash message at the top of the window (the part inside <brackets>).
* Make sure maximum texture size for megatextures (advanced graphics) is more than 256.* Make sure automatic mipmap generation (compatibility) is not disabled.* Make sure your Java version is up to date.* If the crash message mentions jogl.library.path, Check [[reinstallClient Log Messages]] if the clientmessage and a solution is listed.
=== The game crashes without a crash window ===
==== If it still fails ====
Post your log file with description of the problem in the technical problem issues forums, and wait for developer,GM or other assistance. DO NOT POST YOUR LOG ON THE OPEN FORUM, unless you have edited out your name first.

Mention that you used this page, and that your problem wasn't listed.
 
== Other technical issues ==
 
=== 64bit Java ===
 
If you're running a 64bit Windows you should run 64bit Java too. This will allow you to use more of the available system memory and it avoids certain crashes that may occur with 32bit Java.
 
When you visit the Java download site with a 32bit web browser you will get the 32bit Java download by default. Visit the [http://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp Java download site] to download the 64bit version.
 
If you don't need the 32bit version of Java you should uninstall Java completely and install only the 64bit version. This will prevent problems where the 32bit version is automaticly selected to run Wurm.
 
Once you have the 64bit Java installed you can create a shortcut to start the Wurm client. Paste one of the following command lines as target for the shortcut.
 
'''Stable client'''
 
"%SystemRoot%\System32\javaws.exe" http://www.wurmonline.com/client/wurmclient.jnlp
 
'''Unstable client'''
"%SystemRoot%\System32\javaws.exe" http://www.wurmonline.com/client/wurmclient_unstable.jnlp
 
=== Texture problems on turkish computers ===
 
The turkish language settings performs upper and lowercase conversion of the letters ''i'' and ''I'' differently than most languages. As a consequence the client can't find some textures and models and just display a red "x" on white ground instead.
 
You can either change the language setting of your computer to a different language (eg. english) [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/72252-strange-texture-issues-since-3-months/#entry715617] or
start Wurm with an option to run with a different language setting [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/93625-graphics-problem/#entry939516]:
 
Create a shortcut with the following command or run the command from the command prompt (Windows+R):
 
C:\Windows\System32\javaws.exe -J-Duser.country=us -J-Duser.language=en http://www.wurmonline.com/client/wurmclient.jnlp
 
=== Solutions in the forums ===
* Out of memory errors: [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/75790-how-do-i-fix-this-problem/#entry749327]
* nVidia Optimus systems: [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/71698-2fps-and-crashing/#entry708815]
== Gameplay problems ==
=== Wurm runs, but doesn't accept keyboard or mouse input/gain window focus after login (Linux) ===
 
Try a combination of switching the renderer between JOGL and LWJGL, and also experiment with <tt>'Release OpenGL context each frame'</tt> in the advanced options menu. For Nvidia users the 877x series of drivers are recommended, unless you are using X.org 7.0 or higher. You should also check that you are using the official Sun JRE 1.5, instead of [[http://www.blackdown.org/ Blackdown Java-Linux]] 1.4.2-02 (as included by default with many 'fully GPL' distros), as it is known to cause problems.
