To summarize their graphs,
10.6.x : ~70%
10.5.x : ~20%
10.4.x : ~5%

Nice. I guess I'll stop at 10.4 XD

i have from time to time big problems with %packet loss. any ideas how to fix that? (50%+ packet loss makes the game unplayable from time to time)

This is due to network code/server/or even your network provider.
You can try to traceroute to server.
Server IP adress you can find in game.cfg if you open with textedit.app.
You have traceroute on network utility.And to see if you have any troble with any node.
Close any kind of torrent client before begin to play also.

Uploading a MacOSX 10.4 compatible build to AMUN right now.

Can somebody confirm if it still works? :P

Tested a few minuts a go Amun....i had no issues with my Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6.6 and Nvidia card ,shader 2.0 ,720p resolution.on 20 minuts of gameplay not a crash.But was empty and wasnt able to test in war situation.

As a bug or ?!? just downloadet the client from web page,installed because i had no more on my Mac...the issue is:
-The games is installed in a folder /Users/$USER/Application.
The game create 2 folders named Live : one in /Users/$USER/Applications/RegnumOnline and one in /Applications.
Resources are downloadet in /Applications/Live and not in /Users/$USER/Applications/RegnumOnline/Live...se the screenshot.

Please fix the path where he download resource.

Hi, I'm asking if anybody here uses the Mac client to play on the gamigo servers, specifically Muspell and Niflheim. I know a friend who has a mac and wants to play Regnum on it, but he can't login with his gamigo account, it says invalid. He can only access Horus and Raven, I guess using his GameSamba account.

Tanx for fixing download resources path.
Uhhh just bought a new ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1GB of GDDR5 for my MAC Pro...uhhh works awesome

And noticed one think:
-in full screen mode works with around 150-180 fps(may vary)
shader 2.0 low details,no wepoans trails/beams.
-in windowed around 50 fps

So for the people that play in a mac...maybe switching from windowed mode to full screen maybe can help.

Full screen:

Windowed:

Also on HDMI mode with 720pp resolution fps drop till 80 fps.
On DVI to VGA with 1024x768 resolution fps are around 150-180.

Tested at full details shader 4.0 and 80-110 FPS resolution 1024x768 and DVI to VGA.

That noticed also your code works better with ATI cards...no more graphics gliches.

In a few days i will upgrade to OS X Lion and i will give you a feedback ))
Still i have troble with PayPall..i hope in a few days they fix that and i will buy Lion to make tests

Just a fast review (list) on how the game works on my mac.

- Characters find themselves with no hair even if they were not created already bald (including NPCs).
- Graphical problems in which items and buildings appear temporarily without textures.
- Water is not working well.
- Considering the environments I have seen on other pictures and youtube videos, my environments' quality are much lower (no grass, etc...).
- Pictures of what it looks like on level 3:

Otherwise I see no other problems.

Can you tell your MAC specs please?

To have permanent chages on your graphics details change them before chose server to login from options(top of login windows)-> advance options.
Try more options:
-Fixed pipeline-very low quality of image but more FPS;
-shader 2.0
-shader 3.0
-shader 4.0

To take advantage of full graphics details you need to chose shader 4.0(or at least shader 3.0)...but you will have low amont of FPS.You need a powerfull MAC to doo this.

To see grass enable terrain details-this option lower your FPS but good graphics.Also you need to put terrain details view distance at max.

You can enable shadows...shadows will eat lots of FPS too.

To avoid graphics gliches try to change texture quality..but also can eat your FPS...

Here a few example from my MAC PRO with ATI Radeon HD 5770 with 1GB of GDDR5 graphics card.

Ah, thank you HidraA.
There is still one problem... I'm bald, including everyone else in the game according to the computer.
