No problem, I just read this thread before breakfast and didn't quite follow you. Now I get it. :)

Deleted the terranx.exe. Replaced it. Now it won't run.

I get the INS Unity and the progenitor ships, but SMACX doesn't load

Darn. Has it happened to anybody else?

USS, have you backed up your exe? We can play with the regular SMAX for a couple of turns, until the brainiacs here figure something out.

If not and you still can't run your SMAX or do anything about it, I can give you my login to GOG so that you can download and run a working copy. Besides it's just a couple of bucks if you're interested.

So let me know what's your status.

It is my position that if you legitimately own a copy of the game, getting a free copy online (because of scratched CD or whatever reason) is ethical...

Naturally, Kirov's offer would be deleted otherwise.

Yes, I assumed he's got a legal copy, but it's not like Firaxis tech support is going to be much helpful right now. To most of their staff SMAC probably doesn't ring any bell, so it's not like less-orthodox copies make Brian any poorer. ;) But it's just me, have it your way BU.

Sorry. 

I did not intend to imply that you erred in any way.  I assume the same, and just wanted to mention a policy position.  Give him your login unless he says he's been running a crack, I say.

And yeah, it's not hurting Brian to pirate at this point, but GOG and Sold Out Software have legitimate business interest, and I'm big on doing the right thing and encouraging same.
