Planeshift 0.3.020 is now available for OSX via BitTorrent. This release contains a universal binary which we hope will support OSX 10.4 on both ppc and x86 processors, as well as OSX 10.3.9 on ppc.
You can get the torrent file here: http://laanx.fragnetics.com/bt/PlaneShift_CBV0.3.020a.dmg.torrent
Comments to the release:
-The client will not be able to log in if you disable "Preload Models" in pssetup.
-The client pauses when it looses focus. Essentially, if you want the client to keep running also when the window does not have focus, you need to open the file psclient.cfg in a text editor, and add the following line at the end of it:
System.RunWhenNotFocused = true
-Texture compression has been DISABLED by default because it causes crashes & corruption with some graphics hardware (Intel integrated graphics especially) If you want to enable it (for a possible performance boost..) open up data/config/r3dopengl.cfg and change the line:
Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_ARB_texture_compression = false
to
;Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_ARB_texture_compression = false
(note the leading semicolon) If you get corruption or crashes, change it back.
Thanks to the Planeshift dev team for their support in making this release possible. Special thanks to dfryer for hints and guidance in preparing for this release!
"Let the game begin!"

Hello,
I don´t understand what Trymm means with the sentence " The client dont run when the window no have focus, what does it mean. I use an Mac G4 with 2GB RAM, 1Ghz processor, and a GeForce 4MX 64 MB Ram grahic card.
In this moment I am downloading by bittorrent the new version. When I come home this evening I will install the new version. Must I put this line, what Trymm has written in his post, at the end of the psclient.cfg ? Yes or no.
Please excuse my very simple english, but I am german, new in PS and not in exercise with programming in the programms. I am a normal user of Computers.
Thanks
and I hope, that I can join this evening in PS

Hello,
I don´t understand what Trymm means with the sentence " The client dont run when the window no have focus, what does it mean.
he means when the window is not selected (like if you were doing something else on another window)
...I think. correct me if i'm wrong

when you have another window on top of the psclient or you are not using it but it is still up.

Hi,
my mac allows it, but when I use another Programm, I am on the window of this programm not on the window of PS, what does PS then do, while I am using another programm for exampel Safari.
In general I do it so Ps and Safari at the same time. I have two monitors. One with PS and the other with Safari, also with my forum of my guild, when I get up one point in a skill, I must put it in my member profile in the guild.
Thanks :woot:

that should be no problem and nothing should happen to the game other then you seeming afk to others
-
hi, Caarie
excuse me,
but now I dont understand anymore what Trymm means with the windows. Which windows means he?
Thanks :-*

If you do not add "System.RunWhenNotFocused = true" to your psclient.cfg file, whenever you click on another application PS will show as [Pause]. Note that the world is not put on hold, but only your character. So any loading you might be doing will freeze and any other activity you might be engaged in, as well. It should not make you crash but it's kind of a pain if you like to run several programs at the same time.

Guys i really need help!
when i download it from the link it is a quick time program i can't open s:
and when i open planeshift and login it say i need a new version! :@#\ :-[ :(

Maybe you don't have a bittorrent client yet.
Here's where you can download it from: http://www.bittorrent.com/download
Once you have that you can start downloading PS by opening the file linked by Trymm. Let us know if that helps out.

BitTorrent speed depends on the number of seeders available. The more there are, the faster the files get shared. If you finish downloading, do not close BitTorrent. That way you'll start seeding for others.

I would just like to take a moment to thank everyone involved with making it possible for we that still use 10.3.9 of the mac OS to play again. Even if all I do is just wonder around anymore. :D

I have started an extra thread on this but was told to maybe mention the issue here as well.
I am playing on an Intel Core Two Duo iMac "20. About one minute into the game, or rather as soon as I want to move my char, the system freezes up, as it did in the 019 version. When I start the game and my char is outside any town on a country road I can actually play until entering a town again.
Are there any fixes to that?

Download link on www.planeshift.it has not been updated, and does therefore point to an incorrect file name. Go to the directory listing, and you find that the file is there:
ftp://ftp.stacken.kth.se/pub/planeshift
If the same holds true for the other mirrors, I do not know. But it could be worth a try.

Thanks a lot :)
Just to make sure... I only download one of those files right?
