Frequently-Asked Questions
What browsers are supported with TC?
Internet Explorer 6.0; and Netscape Navigator 6.1.
It's possible TC might work with other browsers, but
these are the ones we test with. The key requirement
is that your browser must support
Sun's Java Plug-In
utility, providing the version of Java TC requires. If there's
a version of the plugin for your browser, you should be able to
make it work.
Ordinarily, we like to be agnostic in the religious wars centering
on our friends in Redmond, WA. In this case, we really do recommend
IE 6. It's far faster than Netscape, renders pages better, handles
Java better, and correctly provides the code hooks we need to use for
some of our spiffy game features, for instance, proper pop-up windows.
Netscape is very behind with all of this, and, while they promise to
catch up, so far they haven't. You'll have a better TriadCity experience
on IE.
A note on setting up your browser. We suggest maximizing the
available real estate by minimizing browser bells and whistles.
Get rid of the various "MyToolbarDoDad"s, show the smallest
navigation icons possible, and just generally make the center of
the screen as large as you can manage. We've auto-sized the
TC client applet with the assumption that this is what you've
done; it'll fit exactly, without scrollbars, if you make room
for it.
