Hey community, I really don't like the fact that the community is nearly only german at the moment. I want Clonk to be known and of course be played internationally. You're not able to speak German and want to find people to play or develop with? No problem, most people here in the forums are able to speak English and would love to play with you. So don't be shy and start your topic right now, you'll be surprised by how many people will answer you :)!
i would like to play with someone, i am fairly new to Clonk but i played a long time ago. so i would like someone to explain to me how servers work and how we would play.
Which Clonk do you want to play? Clonk Rage or OpenClonk?
i play Rage, OpenClonk doesnt work for some reason, it just opens in a very small window and immidietly closes after that. but i would appreciate instructions to fix that.
i tried to uninstall, download with and without the soundtrack and run as an administrator. 
Did you try the current development version? You can find it here: http://www.openclonk.org/nightly-builds/
It’s more up-to-date than the last release and your problems might have been fixed in the meantime
oh, thanks, i did not notice where the nightly builds were, thanks for pointing out, ill try it now.
it doesnt work, are there other options i can try to solve this issue?
EDIT: also, my computer counts as all the clonk files like "Worlds", "Fanstasy" "Missions" "Characters" and other stuff like that as an OCF file, means it cannot find a correct program to open it with, this might be the case but its the same with Clonk Rage files but that works fine. any ideas?
>it doesnt work, are there other options i can try to solve this issue?
Yes, you could check the logfile for problems.
You can find it (usually, on windows) in
C:\Users\<yourname>\AppData\Roaming\OpenClonk with the name "OpenClonk.log"
ok, i found it, i found a file called "OpenClonk" as a text document. it says:

i dont understand in any of this, what can i do?
and by the way, i would like to play Rage with you, i want to figure out how to complete Dragon Rock. maybe we can somehow add ourselves as friends here or something and we can chat?
You could join the IRC-Chatrooms for Clonk. I recommend #clonk-gamer or #clonk-tod-ingame there are the most active players for Clonk Rage.
There is also a Discord-Server for Clonk: https://discord.gg/ZPxe2Qr
thanks for the tip, i just played melee with someone and it was fun.
I am taking a wild guess and saying that you don't have a PC with a dedicated graphics card but are using an older Intel onboard graphics chip. Unfortunately, OpenClonk doesn't work on those as we require a newer version of OpenGL than these chip support. Even though the standard OpenClonk needs is from 2009.
Anyway, you can try get a newer driver for that chip but it's only a slim chance of it being able to run OC.
you are correct, that guess was too wild.
i am playing clonk on a laptop, so i cant really modify it whatsoever,
i do have a PC but its at Death's door, its no surprise since its older then me.
Like Clonkonaut says, that's a graphics card problem. Might be that your card is too old :/
>and by the way, i would like to play Rage with you, i want to figure out how to complete Dragon Rock. maybe we can somehow add ourselves as friends here or something and we can chat?
I don't think I'm going to play Clonk Rage anymore. I didn't even play much OC lately
