karch Posted December 29, 2000 Share Posted December 29, 2000 Have any other players using an iBook been able to get TCP/IP play working? I just picked up an iBook yesterday and the only thing I have loaded since opening it is Combat Mission and the newest game sprockets. This is frustrating. I have an iMac and iBook connected via Airport and had a friend over when I bought it. We were getting ready for a CM fest, but I couldn't get IP running at all. Regular CM runs fine, both 1.05 and the beta... both of them. scott karch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karch Posted December 29, 2000 Author Share Posted December 29, 2000 OK, I am a bonehead. I did not read the instructions and put the additional files into my system folder in the extensions folder instead of the Combat Mission folder like the read me said. So, kiddies, as they say RTFM (read the "fine" manual) or readme files. IP works fine now, but I am having problems seeing any text on my screen. It seems that the standard ATI drivers that ship with the new iBooks need some help. I'll post what version of drivers works once I get it going. scott karch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madmatt Posted December 30, 2000 Share Posted December 30, 2000 Stock Answer to the iMac/G3/G4 text problem: First is that there is a new Universal Installer available for Mac installed ATI video cards. That's the good news, the bad news is in the odd way they have chosen to distribute it. In short, they haven't, but there are ways to get it and we HIGHLY recommend upgrading any ATI video card with them. Here is a thread from our Tech Support forum which goes into detail about how to get them. http://www.battlefront.com/discuss/Forum1/HTML/012650.html This will fix your problem!
