Thread: Problems running game on Mac now

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Default Problems running game on Mac now

    Did Evony do some kind of update to the game (flash)?

    I have 3 Mac all running different versions of OS (Tiger, Leopard, and Snow Leopard) and a couple different flash versions.

    Using the game from different networks and connection speeds, I have noticed:

    1. Safari doesn't run the game at all anymore--I can't see the cursor, items don't activate, game runs slowly.

    2. Firefox frequently crashes when running the game.

    3. The game is literally 10 times slower than it was before on all systems and browsers.

    It is so bad I basically can't play at this point.

    I have tried removing and reinstalling flash, upgrading browsers, etc. -nothing has worked.

    what is going on?

  2. Default

    Got access to a Windows system? Could try to see if it's Genuinely Flash.

    Try Speedtest.net

    Pingtest.net


    Bear in mind, Evony has been reportedly running slow by many players recently, just check the forums with a quick run-a-round.

    Flash is a lumbering pile of cack but you may have better luck using Chrome.

    Safari is claimed to be the worlds fastest browser and, according to Evony, Chrome isn't recommended.

    You can try camino. It is a browser only for macs and it was built off of gecko which is what firefox uses.

    "Gecko" is the same engine as firefox - meaning any code related will be similar or the same and won't get you much differences.

    Try http://www.opera.com/browser/ which has it's own Engine.

    Nothing works

    tried Chrome--helps a bit, but still big issues with not being able to type (characters won't appear), cursors vanishes, etc.

    Game officially no longer works correctly on OSX
