Summary

Thanks for such responsive attention. The fixes are spot on! Pawn is doing a great job of bringing palace to OSX without the classic baggage -
"Nice Work Again"
Version: PalaceChat 1.2.7
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Another nice release...Keep up the good work.
I love the way it runs under Panther. I just upgraded from Jaguar and the difference is noticeable.
And now for my broken record to play. Pawn i know I keep saying this but I'm gonna say it again.
Now all we need is iptscrae support so we can use prop rooms, room scripts etc. YES I know this is a huge undertaking and I know it will take time. I'm just eager for it.
Great work! and thanks again! -
"Excellent"
Version: PalaceChat 1.2.6
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
PalaceChat is an excellent client for the palace visual chat servers. It really is only missing iptscrae, but i wouldn't blame the author, or even expect him to do such support. I myself am a programmer and would not want to touch iptscrae parsing, i barely even like iptscrae itself... backwards....
Mansion may have support for many things, but it's limited to itself. Most people are switching from palace, so until then PalaceChat is a great OS X palace solution.
and applewiz or whatever, it's very rude to give something a bad review and rant about something barely related. it had nothing to do with palacechat directly or how welll Pawn has done with programming in REALBasic
best REALBasic app i've seen, excellent work. -
"skip this"
Version: PalaceChat 1.2.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
This version is based on old version of Palace source code-is buggy and that can never be fixed. For the best in OS X visual chat with NO BUGS, scripting enabled, full color avatars and backgrounds WITH SPEECH ENABLED try http://www.madwolfsw.com and find out the truth....that EVERYthing that Palace was that actually worked was the hard work of Mr. Carl MacDonald, NOT Jim Baumgardner in any way whatsoever. Rather than simply allow Mr. Carl MacDonald his well allowed accolades for being the person who really made visual chat work, Mr. Baumgardner continues to complain about alleged theft of Palace source code.....and the truth is that Jim's source code was a buggy nightmare. The truth is Mr. Carl MacDonald coded most of what WORKED on Palace but because Jim Baumgardner has personality problems Baumgardner cannot recognize what the truth is anymore, and has moved on from visual chat. Good riddance Jim, your legacy is a gutter of a MAIN PALACE WHERE PRE-TEENS ENGAGE IN CYBERSEX ALL NIGHT LONG. -
"From a User Standpoint..."
Version: PalaceChat 1.2.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
The only bugs I have noticed are:
(A) Pasting (Cmd-V), duplicates the "Paste Multiple Props" option instead of just pasting the clipboard contents to one prop square.
(B) Sound support is missing
(C) Portals & auto-avatar buttons do not work.
(D) When speech is enabled, voices talk over each other instead of queueing them.
However, when you weigh these shortcomings against what has been accomplished in this app after such a small amount of time, these limitations are negligible & will be corrected sometime in the future I'm sure. All in all, a fantastic job so far. Ratbot would be proud. -
"A surprise"
Version: PalaceChat 1.20
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
This came out of nowhere, with no hype like the Manor or Phalanx has had. With that said, it's a good effort. The props actually work --unlike Phalanx, which is still trying-- and it's actually pretty stable. My qualms with it are in the interface itself. The character spacing seems too unrefined, and the actual text bubbles take quite a bit of tweaking to get readable. I don't think bevel helps it, and I actually think the Mac OS font smoothing makes it difficult to read if bevel is taken off. I also think that there's a few elements of PalaceChat that remind me a bit much of Phalanx, but done better. So all in all, the classic Palace (in both senses) is a bit more solid in interface, but as a first step to a truly alternative Palace client, PalaceChat is the best so far. -
