Hi there, I'm a fresh Alpha Centauri player, I've never played this game before.......1999 that is :D
And yet, still coming back as it is one of my favorites of all times :)

Greetings!, we are not a bot, the borg? maybe, but not a bot lol.

anyway long time SMAC and SMACX player, back when the PC magazine maximum CD demo discs were a thing and I was playing on my uncle's Pentium 3 in windows 2000.

then about 12 years ago I became primarily a Linux user and discovered that the OS I fell in love with had a native port of one of my favorite games, spent years hunting it down, ended up with two copies, and I strive to play it in Linux natively ever since, along with my iMac G3 and my win XP PC, the versions for which were far easier to find than the Loki version of the planetary pack.

came across this community when looking for updated advice to get said version working under a 64bit linux with all features since it works fine under #! linux 32bit with a bit of audio compatibility.

I'm not a bot.

I started playing smacx again after finding it on the hard drive from my old Windows Vista laptop. I was going to buy the gog version but I just copied everything over from the drive and as if by magic it worked (on windows 10)

I have since put it on to a desk computer and my work laptop and it worked both times.

I was googling alpha centuri patches whilst eating a pot noodle and this site came up.

Hi, first post! I am not a bot. For a while I thought something was wrong with my email since I'm not any receiving activation email but it seems the forum administration manually approves new accounts.

I came across this site while browsing civfanatics.

Hi!

Played SMAC/X non-stop for about 10 years (I find a mod friendly game and stick with it) before moving on to Skyrim. I'm not back to SMAC/X and getting back into the swing of things. Love the Praxis mod!

Howdy all! I've been on this forum lurking at various times when it came up on google results. Most recently I've been binging a ton of conversations about Thinker AI in my attempt to beat its dastardly condeser-borehole action.

Hi, I found this forum while looking for mods to change Alpha Centauri graphics on Google, nothing special. I just want to shift some terrain hues to make it look like Earth. Is that useful? Maybe not. But what's the point of gaming on PC if I don't break my game with mods?

It's not a huge job, I think, though multitasking has undermined me trying in a timely fashion.  Naw, reskinning matters and party on with your own bad self.

Hello! Name's Lionheart (old youtube name is Twingrey), found you by googling for graphic mods for SMACX; discovered that my IP is banned on this website, I believe erroneously. Decided to stop, use proxy and see what the website has to offer. Gonna be writing in the topic below concerning the IP ban, too.

Thank you for your kind words! It feels like I am back in 2008 here ::) ; I love these little corners on the Internet where it feels like the time has stopped, there was always a certain magic to them.

Quite welcome. (no pu..erf.. who am I kidding?  Pun totally intended)
With a game that was originally released in... 1999? 1998? ...bunch of old players still poking at it ages later, yeah, we're DEF in it for the love.

I saw the alien phalanx coming toward us, and I calmed my mind as Kri'lan had taught me. And what I saw next to the phalanx was a shadow regiment, half-formed from the resonance around them. I cursed the aliens... with power like that, each one could fight as many, and I thanked Planet for sending us the betrayer.
