Questions about Hera really should be posted in the Engineering section, but I'm not too worried about that. I can't answer if Hera is 68k compatible, but:

Finding a good game on a 68k computer is very difficult. Since GameRanger doesn't work, you have to resort to more mundane methods.

I suggest getting in contact with Aithon, [url="http://"mailto:ashaylor@ductape.net"]mailto:ashaylor@ductape.net[/url]ashaylor@ductape.net

Beyond that, I'm afraid I can't help.

Bad news 68k users: From what I understand, you WONT be able to use Hera.

He's not mistaken. Maybe sometime in the not-too-near future a 68k compatible version will be released but right now it just barely works on a PPC.

Last I checked, not only does Hera require a PPC machine, but it also needs OS 8.5 for various reasons. Nathan says he's going to fix that for the final, so it shouldn't be a problem in the end. It also requires a decent sized screen to handle all the windows, or so I hear. I still haven't been able to get it to unstuff on my machine. *grumble*

Do you mean 8.5 and above or just 8.5?
