Feral Heart

Hello fellas! I am new with this game (Started today to be honest) And i find myself in a rather annoying situation... When i go into the game i have an utterly black background and i can't see anything! I tried searching in the help forum and people say i need to set maps as cape, burnfire and such as my home.. I couldn't do that either because i can't type anything in the bar where you set homes.... I tried also to find answers to that, but i haven't found anything.. I would really like some help, i would really love to play this game Thanks.
