I double click on the Bzflag icon on my desktop to play, the cursor shows the "loading" sign, then it stops loading. On top of that, Bzflag dosen't even start! I've had Bzflag on this computer a few weeks and its been fine until now. Any help?
P.S. this is an IBM Thinkpad model R51
Hope you can help!

Try deleting the "My BZFlag Files" folder from your Documents folder (in case youre running Vista/7). On XP its located inside your personal files folder.

And actually you just need to delete the "2.0" folder within the My BZFlag Files directory, unless it's a corrupted cache file. In the event that deleting the 2.0 folder does not solve the issue, try deleting the cache folder too.

No, that probably is not the issue
