o, Im trying to play Ares in Mac OS X with classic. It switches my moniter to 256 but thats when the truble starts...

The rez gos to 1024x768 and then i can't see anything in game ranger... it just gets all fuzzy and hafl the text i can't read ! So i switch it to 640x480 and go back to Ares and then the half of Ares is sticking off the left top cornor. What gives!? This stumped me.. Please let me know if you have any ideas.

U could also contact me on GR im Onii7....

A cuple of notes: Im running:
OS X (10.1)
Ares 1.2 [not 2.5/2.0 or any crap like that] this time i want some real help.
ATI 128 Pro Graphics Card
G4 (not quicksilver)

Thanks.

Do not go on about 2.5 and all that stuff. i want some real help this time. couse last time Laguna locked it... i dont what that happning again.

Got it?

You have addressed this to Ambrosia's Technical Support forum, correct? That's your best source of fixes to system conflicts, etc.

Didnt you say that if you ran in 256 colors, 640x480 before starting Ares it worked fine?

Well, I gave up on that problem but I have a new one.

[url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/Forum2/HTML/001557.html"]Airport Base Station and Ares Network play[/url]

See below:

Hello-
I have been trying to connect and play people on Game Ranger. Game Ranger has always connected fine, untill I installed the Airport Base station and the Airport card. Now when I try to host a game or join a game it always says "faild to contact host."

Does anyone have the same problem, and/or could help me?

What I am using:

Mac OS 9.2.2
Airport Base Statoin 2.0.4
G4 Power PC Chip-533mhz.
Game Ranger 3.0
Ares 1.2.0
