Anyone know which one for the Oz version of GPL - Am downloading both just in case
Canada seems to have the Brit version. Disk is labeled "English." J. P. Hovercraft ---------- > Anyone know which one for the Oz version of GPL - Am downloading both just > in case
BOTH VERSIONS HAVE BEEN SOLD HERE! If you don't need to the CD in the drive (and you haven't used a "no CD" patch to do so) then you have the US version. Otherwise you have the UK version. Also the address on the bottom of the rear cover on the two booklets will assist.....if a USA addrsss you have the US version.

US patch seems to work fine. OZ is a bit of a noman's land isn't it? Roger

Yeah! Also here in the definitely "other end of the globe" - Finland geographically actually is just the opposite of NZ in our globe - I have already complained about the differences of the versions of GPL. I do not mind of the "nationalizations" of the language, but I do complain of the noCDrom feature of the US version vs. the "European" versions demanding the CD in use, when you start the sim/game. There really seems to be a kind of "unthrust" to us Europeans, and also perhapsw to New Zealanders by Papy/Sierra? I really am considering to order the US-version, but basically I would not like to! Any comments by you, Papy/Sierra? Are we Europeans (and others) really to be taken as robbers of your copyrights? More than the Americans? Arto
