  • Alpha Centauri doesn't start after reinstall

    It's on XP, and I have installed the patches before opening the game.

    I think the problem is that the alphacentauri.ini file has only a few lines in it. Could someone perhaps post a full alphacentauri.ini file here so I could copy it?

    This is the content of mine atm:

    [Alpha Centauri]
    [PREFERENCES]
    ForceOldVoxelAlgorithm=0

    With thanks,

      It doens't continue to start up after the usually 'not supported CPU, crashes are possible' popup. Earlier on this was no problem. Thanks for the list, I'll try it with this.

            Feel free, and all new blood is welcome!

            Just readed your intro post. Remember this thread in case SMACX won't startup at first for your .ini file might as well be the same as mine was after reinstall.

              Thanks

              Just wanted to leave a little Thank you here, since I experienced the same Problem after buying a new CPU and reinstalling Alpha, and the .ini-File solved it. Thanks.
