With the new alphas release, when I try to play the game all I get is this screen of floating triangles, it doesn't change or anything.
I have this problem on the MAC client. I do not have this problem on the Windows client. The step that fails is the login to root screen never comes up (so you can't connect to the UI). It's directly after the Alice and Smith logo loads, and it tells you hivemind is loading.
The idle triangle mean a firewall or a communication issue prevent the game to access the server. I don't know if you have any permission / firewall / antivirus that could affect the game?
In my case, on my macbook pro, I'm running NT4 directly. WHen I run parallels, with a windows 10 vm, and a windows NT4 executable inside that, it works (but is still using the Mac's network stack, since the win10 is a client VM).
I've now also turned on the mac firewall, but allowed the nt4 app to permit incoming connections... same result for the mac client. Same result for the windows client running as a VM under the mac (sharing the mac's wifi, so its network connectivity). Can reproduce 100%, willing to try whatever you want.
