Okay folks, this is the best chance Mac users have for a real online RPG experience so lets not freak out. I downloaded it last night and with a little juggling got it to run as smooth as beta-silk.

Here is what I did:
1.) Downloaded and mounted the dmg file Planescape comes in.

2.) Copied the Planescape folder to my games folder.

3.) Opened the folder and ctrl-clicked on the file named \"psclient\"

4.) Show package contents

5.) Opened \"Contents\"

6.) Opened \"Resources\"

7.) Copied \"libcal3d.10.dylib\" to the desktop

8.) Made a folder called \"lib\"

9.) Put the \"libcal3d.10.dylib\" file into the \"lib\" folder

10.) From the finder menu-bar click on Go and then \"Go to folder\"

11.) type in \"/usr\"

12.) GET INFO on the \"local\" folder and go to ownership and permissions.

13.) push the Unlock button and change the owner from \"system\" to you. Note that you need to have the admin password to do this. Check Mac help if you don\'t know what I am talking about.

14.) Move the \"lib\" folder with your copied planeshift file into the \"local\" folder

15.) Change the owner of the \"/usr/local\" directory back to system and lock it up.

16.) Run psclient


Ta-Da

I run a 1ghz G4 powerbook on Mac OS 10.2.8 and it looks fine other than what looks to be Beta-type glitches.

Now I need to find out where to get gold ore from.

Two things-
1- thank you for providing a clear step-by-step that a computer dummy can use
2- It won\'t let me open \'contents\' in step 5, the icon\'s all faded
