This file is one of my saved files for the Red Front Demogame.

Oh you MAC users are always so nosey
I want to show how easy it is to make MAC saves PC freindly and vice versa.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin YuComment

How to make a mac save PC friendly:
1. Save the file
2. Add .sav to the filename
3. There is no 3

Actually there is #3 the first time.
You must tell your machine which application is to be used to open the file thru properties otherwise the file is unknown to the dumb PC.This is how it was for me on XP.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin YuComment

OK, Smash, thanks for taking a stab at this. I have a non-MP original Mac version, never updated as far as I know.
Good luck!Comment

Ok that one won't work.Something odd with that save.It is 140 k!...thats at least twice as big as it should be for that date.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin YuComment

OK, smash. Here's a typical succession game save (fyi, the current "Silly rules" game) from my iMac. This is the full Mac file name, with ".sav" added to make it Poly-acceptable. No compression.

My Civ II version (FW on a PC) could not find the Jrabbit save (too many dots?) and said that the other one was not a game save. But I suspect you already new that would happen.

OK, I try again, this time trying to document the steps.
1. Open Civ2 game
2. Save game, adding .sav and eliminating one period in B.C.
3. Close Civ2
4. Type this reply. Cllick on Browse. Add the just saved game.
5. Submit.
Let's see if this works. The file is 140k in my machine too. I had 8 cities, 13 units.Comment

ok something strange is happening here.Both of those saves are up in the 140k area and neither work using the normal method.Your MACs are adding a bunch of stuff in the save or something.I never had that on my MAC(g3 os 8.5).I may have to drag it out of the "closet of oblivion" and have a looksy.The only thing that matters to me in a MP game is getting a good ally.Nothing else is as important.......Xin YuComment
