  • Help - CPU unsupported message??

    I have just bought a new Laptop with an AMD Turion A64 cpu and if i try and run SMAC i get amessage that my CPU is unsupported. It says i may be able to play but expect crashes, however it just quits at this stage.

    Any idea's how i can get around this? (the firaxis site doesn't sem to have a support section)

    many thanks

    ignore it, all 64bit processors get that message, never had a crash because of that as far as i can tell

        Edit the Alpha Centauri.ini file by setting

        [PREFERENCES]
        ForceOldVoxelAlgorithm=1

        in the .ini file.

              the lazy way: start a search on your HD where smax is installed and search for ''Alpha Centauri.Ini''

              the slower way: just browse to that file in your smax folder
