+ What platforms will Everplanes run on?
Everplanes is available for Mac OS X 10.4+, Windows XP/Vista/7 and Linux. Java 1.5 or better required (free download).
+ What are the hardware requirements?
We recommend a dual-core or better computer with at least 2Gb of RAM and a mid-range graphics card/chipset. If you have more than two cores, parts of the game engine are designed to take full advantage of these.
+ How do I make my server appear to other players in the server browser?
If the other players are on the LAN, no additional configuration is required. If you would like your server to appear to players on the Internet, please configure your router to forward TCP ports 21510 and 21511 to your machine. Please consult your router manual for further instructions. We would like to remove this configuration step and this may be possible in a later version of the game.
