I can't seem to get ace.Here is what happens:

I download ace, double click on it, and then a sign comes up that says it can't find the stuffit expander.So then I download a new stuffit expander.Then I double on ace and then the same sign comes up.(It can't find the stuffit expander.)

So I can't get ace.But maybe I could e-mail my game to someone else that has ace and they could use their ace to get me more training points.But then again I don't even know how to e-mail my game to someone.

Did you unstuff the stuffit expander? I should probably be in the self-expanding form. (the word binhex comes to mind, but I don't really have a clue as to what I'm talking about Posted Image)

Other than that, all I can suggest is to figure out where you saved the stuffit expander, go into it, and open Ace! manualy.

Hope this helps.

I don't have a clue what you are talking about either.But maybe my dad can help me.If he can't would anyone with ace be willing to receive my game and get me some training points useing their ace.

If you have stuffit that's installed (hence 'unstuffed'), this is what you do.
1)Open stuffit.
2)Have it expand the binhex (or stuffed) document that was created when you downloaded Ace!
3)Open ace and have FUN!!! Posted Image

Ace can take off that boring trading work in EV too, just give yourself 12m credits and get a Kestrel...

If stuffit itself isn't expanded, just double-click on its icon. If it's already expanded (when you double-click it opens the application), then say "Expand..." and then find Ace!. Click the 'expand' button, and you should be ready to go!

Note: if it still doesn't work (say it doesn't expands but just quits stuffit) you've probably got a corrupt download. Just download it again and trash the old one.

Now when I try to go into the stuffit expander it says it can't find the carbonlib. (What ever that is.)So why don't I just e-mail the game to someone with ace so they can use their ace on my game to get me more training points.

Maybe that's why I have a CarbonLib installer I picked up from somewhere.

Have you tried dragging the Ace file onto the application Stuffit Expander?

If you have, and you get the CarbonLib error, go to a place like [url="http://"http://www.versiontracker.com"]http://www.versiontracker.com[/url] and search for CarbonLib. Install that and then it should work.

Oh, I forgot to mention Carbonlib is a system extension and its quite useful with some applications. You might want to get it anyway.

Feel free to email it to me, i'll max out your training points (anything else will reset once you hit something and with training you can basically max everything)
make sure you put the return address in it.

I got the email, only one, but there were no games attached to it.

Also make sure to send a duplicate, just in case.

Well I got one, it just didn't have anything attached to it, which is a problem.
I could send you one that is just started out, with the hacks already done to it, hmmm... good idea.
Sit tight I'll try sending you one. How's Grapper for a name? Posted Image
