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. -Jan Otto, running GPL demo on 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 > You can be 100% sure that nobody will release a game not working in Win98. -- Regards, Bruce. ---------- The GP Legends Historic Motor Racing Club is located at:- http://www.netspeed.com.au/brucek/legends/
