December 14, 200817 yr Since the update for an ingame world select, my Macintosh cannot play runescape. When I try to load runescape, it stops when it says "loading world select" or something about the ingame world select thing. Here's my computer specs if that might help: Mac version: 10.4.11 Memory: 256 MB SDRAM Processor: 1 GHz PowerPC G4 Internet browser: Safari v. 3.2 (have tried with Mozilla Firefox and Internet explorer, also) ***I don't know, but is there any Java update that may help?*** Anyways, please help. Thanks! ---Kaio Forsaken Legends, the F2P/P2P everything clan that's been gaining power since 2008!

December 14, 200817 yr Even if you got it to work, it's not going to play any game very well. 1Ghz and 256mb of RAM is well, terrible these days. Sorry. :?

December 14, 200817 yr AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core Proccesor TK-57 1.90GHz and 2 GB Ram Will this play high detail (sorry, not meaning to hijack thread, I need to know) It's possible, but don't expect anything revolutionizing. You could save up and get more bang for your buck. Try and get a discrete graphics card with at least 256mb of memory. EDIT: Now I'm almost fairly certain that the OP's computer doesn't match Runescape's requirements. Tiger, the minimal OS that it is, is sharing Runescape's graphics alongside it. Your processor and RAM just can't handle that amount of instability, and won't let you play it.
December 14, 200817 yr Wow, I just tried and I can watch youtube and play runescape with anti-aliasing x4 high detail at the same time, no lag. 0.0 Goals: 94 magic94 ranged55 slayerAddy gloves-done

December 14, 200817 yr Yes Miracle? Even I didn't expect this.. Goals: 94 magic94 ranged55 slayerAddy gloves-done
December 14, 200817 yr My computer must be on roids. :shock: Goals: 94 magic94 ranged55 slayerAddy gloves-done
December 14, 200817 yr To the first post, I don't think you have the best OS for the job. I thought RS required higher... something about 10.8 i believe i saw. Doesn't sound right though, I don't think they came out with anything past 10.4... I has herd, that lesser demons, MAY or may not, drop tormented demons. \:D/ :roll: :x :D :o :shock: :? 8-) :lol: Due to a typo, I am now stuck with 1k dragon darts and no buyer. Can I has bail out from tip.it plox?
December 14, 200817 yr Wow. My computer is equal to that, and I can't run anything like that. :| Really? My computer is like 3.4gHz and 512MB of RAM. Like 5 years old and It does everything his does. OH S***! He/she/it is back!

Doesn't sound right though, I don't think they came out with anything past 10.4... The OS has nothing to do with it in this case. If you wanted to get technical, OSX probably would help with Runescape, because of the way it "flushes" processes. And then there is the matter that it's not resource heavy, like Vista is. 10.4 is Mac OS X Tiger. Apple has since only come out with Mac OS X Leopard, which is about to be replaces by Snow Leopard in the first quarter of 09. My computer is like 3.4gHz and 512MB of RAM. Like 5 years old and It does everything his does. There's many more variables. I'm running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. 1.6GHz Centrino Duo 2 GB of RAM My computer is a tad less capable than his. Yours, I can't really compare, since I don't know your processor. I'm assuming Pentium 4 and Windows XP?
December 14, 200817 yr I'm also running on a G4 mac, and runescape works fine for me. Is it loading in HD? That may be the problem.
December 14, 200817 yr Wow. My computer is equal to that, and I can't run anything like that. :| You probably have a ton of crap running in the background. His computer setup might not be new, but it's not bad either, ESPECIALLY for playing Runescape. It's all about how clean you keep your computer. Runescape will run fine on a computer 10 years old, it's not that amazing.

I can run Runescape HD fine, without much lag, although without anti-aliasing. I suppose I underrated my machine at the time, or overrated the original statment.

December 19, 200817 yr Author What's newest Java version? :shock: Forsaken Legends, the F2P/P2P everything clan that's been gaining power since 2008!
December 19, 200817 yr Lol, I've run Runescape on a Pentium 2, I think it can run on that Mac in OP Probably a Java problem or browser problem. Sometimes mine gets stuck in firefox, so I go to IE, load it there, then go back to FF [/bads]
December 19, 200817 yr Under Safari > Preferences > Security, make sure you have 'Enable plug-ins' 'Enable Java' 'Enable JavaScript' all ticked. I used to have loads of problems with running RS on Mac (even before graphics update), but since I got a new one it works incredibly smoothly, even when running as much detail as you like, so it may just be a simple answer of your computer just not being up to it.
December 19, 200817 yr Your hardware shouldn't be a problem. I'm running on 1.1ghz and ~300mb RAM. I don't know where the processor came from and my graphics card is only 32mb. Yet I can still play. [hide=Stats][/hide]"One death is a tragedy. A million deaths is a statistic."-Joseph Stalin
December 20, 200817 yr Try running the unsigned java applet or in safe mode. Back when I had problems running it, that's how I got it to work. Now known as Expl0de.My Defense Pure GuidePlease don't post on forums whilst inebriated.
