I apologize if this has been answered already, but I don't read the
forum usually. I know that the GPL demo did not work in 98, but how
about the release version? I need to know before I go buy it.


Thanks,
Todd Walker

You can be 100% sure that nobody will release a game not working in Win98.

Well, Todd, seeing as the release version won't be released for another
month or so, it's hard to say.
However, I can't imagine Sierra/Papyrus releasing a Windows-native sim
that won't operate correctly under Win98, so I wouldn't be concerned if
I were you.

You need to remind yourself that the 'demo' is a rather old development
tool now and didn't take W98 into account when produced.

Oh, it's unlikely, but certainly possible.
Remember, Microsoft released one that didn't work in W95....I believe it
was called CART Precision Racing
