  • CPU not supported

    Hello!
    Having installed SMAC and SMAX today on my new PC with XP, when I want to start, it says "CPU not supported, crashes are possible".
    Then I try to go on and it stops.

    What to do? (and say it as simple as possible, please! I'mno computer geek! )
    From hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee. Ye damned whale!

    Common problem with Win XP - all you have to do:

    Go into the Alpha Centauri.cfg file in the main folder,

    Type in "ForceOldVoxelAlgorithm=1" at the bottom of that file, and save it.

    Should then work.
    We're back!

      Edit : crosspost - now you don't need to search the forum... but isn't the right file Alpha Centauri.ini ?

        Some answers to common XP problems are addressed in the FAQ topped in the forum:

        The SMAC/X FAQ: COMMON QUESTIONS and their ANSWERS


        I believe it is Alpha Centauri.ini as well.
