Maybe some more specific details would help:
  • Did you read the FAQ and the problem is still unsolved?
    What DirectX version are you using?
    What operating system are you runing?
    Does your hardware fit the requirements?

    What is your credit card number? (sorry, joking, don´t answer this :) )
Sounds like the problem that appears with some older DirectX version, but don´t mind me and my humble opinion.

I'd say the best idea would be to delete the Illarion folder and re-download everything. I've had this problem twice, once with walls, trees, bushes etc. and once with the ground. Both times re-downloading has worked.

Thanx man but it didn't work either. All files are extracted and I deleted it and re-downloaded it. Thanx but I can't think of anything. Please help more if you can. Tan so far for the time. :)

From the download page specifically addressing a black screen:

If, upon starting the program, you stumble upon a black screen it may be due to the following:

You may have moved the client program (Illarion.exe) to the desktop. It needs to be opened directly from the directory in which the other files are.
You may not have extracted all the files from the zip file. Check ifd you really unzipped them all into the same directory, especially the .tbl files!
The client should be extracted to a new folder, as it will create some files itself.
