SMAC demo for Mac out! Enter the AD-FREE zone

Unfortunately, I and some others have had problems unstuffing it. Make sure to so set your stuffit expander to never convert docs to text file.

Us macgamers can get it at:
www.insidemacgames.com
and www.macgamenews.com
The 2nd one might not be right though. . .

Celebrate good times come on!

after a very long download and after following recommendations in the "read me first" all I did was see a blank screen.After several resetting of monitor settings,the download SMAC demmo was re-filed in the trash.Empty trash was next.

Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

I tried the demo, and when I finally got it working, I was singularly unimpressed. SMAC feels like the ugliest Civ 2 scenario I have seen. Kludgy interface, unresponsive controls, horrendous graphics. Even on "move fast", moving units took a long time for all players. I hope CTP looks better.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

... and it doesn't have cross platform multiplay :-( :-( :-(

Thank you, Microsoft, for DirectPlay. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest your HDs.

CTP looks very nice. I was leery at first since it's a full screen game, but I like it.
