Hello!

 Google Chrome had recently updated the list of unsupported graphics cards. Please enable this:  chrome://flags/#ignore-gpu-blocklist (you have to type this in the search bar of Chrome).

Hello, have you tried using another browser or downloading official client?

Hello, have you tried clearing your Chrome browser's cache?

This is some brilliant knowledge, thanks a lot! I also had the same issue here - wasn't able to play on Chrome for some weeks now, and unfortunately clearing the cache etc. did not fix it. This however did - just need to type this and and enable the #ignore-gpu-blocklist.

Working again now, thanks a lot :)

Glad to help!

Regarding the "brilliant knowledge", I did not know about this until someone reported the error in the support channel of our Discord server, which is when I consulted the higher-ups, and Marcus told me about the updated list of unsupported graphics cards.

I think ThirdOnion remembers that conversation in #support.

Well you should have left me thinking that you were a tech genius :P Well done to Marcus then, or whoever he learned this off lol. Thanks for the info anyway :) Would never have know about this.

I do wonder however if there is any security disadvantage in enabling this setting though? Probably not, but I am venturing into unknown territory here with my limited knowledge of web technology lol.
