Why can't I play Habbo Hotel properly on my Macbook?

[swoz]

Hi all! I've just joined MacForums and hope to get a solution to this as it's been bugging me for ages!

For Christmas, I bought a 2gb HD white MacBook from eBay and since then have had to use one of my older laptops - a 1gb HD Acer - to play Habbo Hotel. It's inconvenient for me to switch laptops as I don't have wireless and I've already grown accustomed to my new one. I've been a regular on that site for a few years and have made many friends and can't figure out what I need to do to be able to play Habbo glitch-free.

Here's a screenshot of what happens when I click around on the game:

Also, I have to press very hard on the keypad to type, or else the letters won't be recognized. I'm running it on Firefox and using OS X 10.5.

Is that the game the the 4chan people raided with the Samuel L Jackson characters?

Haha, yeah. POOL'S CLOSED DUE TO AIDS.

You should be thanking your Mac for it not working

In all seriousness, have you tried updating whatever plugin it uses? What about trying a different browser, or a different user account?

haha that's awesome.

Ummmm the only thing I can think of is try and use a different web browser. I love firefox as much as the next guy, but lately I've been having issues with it, mainly with flash and being redirected poorly. Try using Safari or Opera.

I only go on to chat, I promise I'm not THAT pathetic. I haven't tried to update plug-ins, nor have I used a different browser. As to why I'm not sure but I'm going to right now, haha. Thank you!

Oh, and all hail hypnotoad.

what version of shockwave player do you have? I have run it on both safari and camino with ibook G4 for years pretty well besides the issue with a slow CPU. it sucks up CPU cycles like they are going off sale!

Sorry for bumping but it doesn't work on Firefox on mine either. Works perfect in Safari when I have actually been on it.
