Great! Nice to see I have some support! Look this Saturday night Pacific time for a GR game.
And Mr. Banthafodder, post in the GR forums under Mac support to see if anyone can help you...  :cheers:

Problem. Here is the short version:
I host a game using 1 computer, my little brother tries to join using another computer ( both using the same CD ) and when he tries to join my game it says he has a bad CD key. Why is this? It works when I host, but when I try to join it doesn't work!  :rant:

Two people with the same CD key can't join the same online game. At least I do believe that is how it works.

I've tried it, but without succes.
This is by the way the window that opens when I try to load gameranger:

But the previous times when this problem occured, I just had to wait until the next update.
Then it worked again for about three weeks, so I will tell you when it works.
I will then be able to help to keep the online swbf1 mac community alive  :P .
Ok I just had the exact same screen thing come up when my internet was going in and out. Try to make sure your internet is good. Get back to me to see if it works then...

I can open my internet browser, but still it doesn't work, so just forget about me kit.
I'm sure the problem will solve itself again :happy: .

I hope a bunch of other macs will join your mac GR event tonight  :tu: .

Don't believe everything you read on the internet

or in the US on ebay:

or maybe, just maybe, a PC game code would work.  You can buy the PC version still, and it is about $8 at the moment, although I have seen it for $3

I bought my PC copy for £1($1.6).

SWBF MAC copy's are expensive if you want a good quality disk. Mine cost $50!!

So is anyone going to join? :(

What time are you thinking today, or did it already pass?

Glad to have you aboard!

Looks like the ping at my apartment is too low over WiFi. I will look into the possibilities of getting my switch up and running over the next couple weeks so that I can get the Mac Pro wired internet.
