Obtaining The Palace user software is quick, easy, and only takes a few minutes. If you are a first time user looking to connect to various Palace Servers so you can chat with friends, wear Avatars, etc., please choose the version appropriate to your operating system under Client Downloads.

If you are an experienced Palatian looking to build your own Palace site that users can come to chat at, please choose the version appropriate to your operating system under Server Downloads. If you are running The Palace Server under UNIX (Linux or Solaris), you have the option of adding additional functionality and security by adding PServer plugins. Visit Avatar Palace Plugins to download them. Avatar Palace Plugins has become a hub for all Palace Server plugin development and activity.

In any case, if you are downloading the client software or your own server, you will need a registration code. Please head over to the Palace Registration Code Distributor site, brought to you by the Folks at thePalace.com.

Alternatively, if you are a software developer looking to create your own build of The Palace software or create useful Palace client or server plugins, please see the Developer Resources section for our collection of developer APIs and source code. (Note: the source code itself is for an ancient version of the client and server, circa version 2.0 or so.)
