Getting an Account
Unless you are coming from another hypergrid-enabled grid, you'll need to create an account and an avatar to log onto the GCG. To create your own account and avatar, you'll need to visit the GCG's own website. The instructions are simple enough - you'll be ready in no time. Click the button to go straight to account creation.

Viewer Options
PC Viewers
To visit the GCG, you'll need a viewer. This is a software program that allows you to see and interact with the virtual world. You have a few choices of viewer that work with GCG, the PC viewers are free, mobile / cell viewers usually cost. You may want to try one or all of them. They take some getting used to if you've never been in a virtual world, but there is always someone to help if you ask!
Click any of the buttons on the right to go straight to the home page of each viewer, or the download page if they don't have a current home page. Most will work on all platforms, Wabbit has a strong bias towards Linux and "may" update Windows, but doensn't cover Mac at all! Please be aware I am not responsible for the content of these pages, or the viewers, or their suitability. I have tried every viewer here at least once for GCG, and survived. Some of these viewers will have The Great Canadian Grid on their dropdown list, some won't. To enter it, you normally need to go to Preferences and Grids, then enter the address: login.greatcanadiangrid.ca:8002 |

Please note that this viewer will not run GCG on all versions. Read THIS before you buy!
