Anyone who has been following baseball at all this past season shouldn't find this surprising. The Tigers have been phenomenal all season long. Also, remember that this [b]was[/b] the playoffs. Any team that makes it even to the first round is pretty darn good.

It also could be a graphics issue. In compatibility mode tab, try selecting "Runin 256 colors", and see if that works.

Autumn greetings from Spiderweb Software! We're pretty agitated right
now, what with all of the work that needs to be done to finish
Geneforge 4: Rebellion and kick it out the door for the holidays. But
that doesn't mean we can't hold one of those sales we enjoy having so
much ...

* Spiderweb Software's Force of Habit Sale

We at Spiderweb Software are simple people. Creatures of habit. It
takes a lot of work and concentration to make fun role-playing games
year in and year out, and we just can't work up the energy for cool
marketing ideas. So, every year, we just have the same old sale and
hope that it makes people like us more.

So, for the whole month of October, we are having our Force of Habit
Sale! Everything we sell, the games, the hint books, the bundles, it's
all ten percent off. The stuff that's on sale is now more on sale. The
award-winning Avernum and Geneforge games, all on the cheap!

Not only that, but all of our games are available on CD. Think of it!
Get the holiday shopping for your gamer friends done early!

As always, you can find all of the fun at

http://www.spiderwebsoftware.com

Big, free demos of all of our games are available. And hopefully you
can forgive us for being so predictable.

* Geneforge 4: Rebellion Out Soon

Development of Geneforge 4: Rebellion is proceeding swiftly. It appears
that the game will be out for the Macintosh in November, 2006, and out
for Windows 2-3 months after that. Of course, the flu, earthquakes, and
other disasters can happen, but that's what we're shooting for.

If you want to learn more about Geneforge 4: Rebellion, go to

http://www.spidweb.com/geneforge4/index.html

* Macintosh Universal Plans

We've been getting reports of our games sometimes playing slowly on
Macintoshes with the fancy, new Intel chips. We are working on
isolating which games have problems and getting Universal versions of
them out in early 2007.

That's it for this short update. You'll hear from us again when
Geneforge 4: Rebellion is out.

I experienced this exact problem with XP Pro. Here is how to solve this issue:

Right-click on the shortcut for the game.
Select Properties.
Select the Compatibility.
There should be check-box that says: "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" with a dropdown menu box below it. Check this box and ensure that either Windows 95 or Windows 98 is selected.
Click OK.
The problem should be solved. It worked for me anyway. :)

Most of the results for Tyranicus are about me. There are a couple of people on other forums who use the same name apparently.

Ironically, games that are more resource intensive, such as Neverwinter Nights, run fine without any lag under Rosetta. Go figure.

Anyway, the previously mentioned MSN account will no longer be used by me. Feel free to delete it from your list if you have added it. Same goes for my AIM.

So, will you be unavailable to contact now, or do you have new handles?

We all know that the Mac version of a scenario requires the graphics to be compressed into a cmg file. I'm curious as to why this is. Is it not possible for the Mac version of BoA to use plain bitmap graphics files like the Windows version?
