It's nice, this budding little community. We all seem to be right around the same age, with the same fondness for an era. Powerful possibility in that!

I'm not sure if anyone else will run in to any roadblocks when initially trying to load/run the game on MAC OS X, but i figured i would post a quick little guide for the three steps required for setting Java permissions. STEP ONE: Make sure you have the latest version on Java installed, Here. STEP TWO: From system preferences open up your java control panel, APPLE ICON>SYSTEM PREFERENCES>JAVA. Access the SECURITY tab, and add the client URL to the permissions list. Once added a prompt will inform you that adding HTTP url's is unsafe, add the url anyway. http://i63.tinypic.com/2h3o3za.png STEP THREE: Now open up SAFARI, and open preferences. Once open, access the SECURITY tab. Uncheck the box that reads "Block Pop-Up Windows", make sure both "Enable JavaScript" and "Allow Plug-Ins" Box's ARE CHECKED, and click "Plug-In Settings" button. Once open you will see the Phantasia5 url in the list, to the right is a drop down menu that should be set to ALLOW, click the drop down menu and select RUN IN UNSAFE MODE. This will allow the P5 Java Applet to load. http://i63.tinypic.com/2vlqmip.png You should now be able to load and run the P5 client with your safari browser. Let me know if you have any trouble or questions. Also MODS, feel free to delete/move/sticky this as you see fit.

Figured i would piggy-back on this thread instead of starting my own! I always gravitate back to this game every few years, glad to see perhaps the MOST stable revival happening. I was playing this game back in 2002 on a dialup brick in my grandparents basement. I was probably twelve years old at the time. Heavy nostalgia. Most commonly used usernames that i can remember are: Icelore, Strider, Ratsrik. In any case, thanks for getting this up and running. See you all in-game.
