sorry, this is a bug, didn't mean to make it it's own topic, wrong button i guess. Well, i'm running uplink on a PowerBook G4, 667, 512, etc, etc, and panther. The problem that i found was that in trying to connect to anything where a such as a gateway, all i get is a white screen, nothing else, same with the gameplay graphics, maybe it's a panther thing, but i didn't have the problem with version 1.3.1, and i really want to be able to use the enhanced features of 1.3.2

I'm sorry, Panther is an incomplete and unsupported operating system. Nothing will be done at this time to remedy this problem.

What does 1.3.2 fix? The read me file didn't offer much details there.

I dont know if this is a fixed bug (I cant find out at all now).
I got cought hacking into a bank in the game (using my agent name I used when I hadnt regestered the game). Some features of the regestered user were available (Max unregistered uplink user rating lifted for example and all equip. could be used) but I couldnt get any missions for ARC/Armour (or whatever it is), couldnt use the stock market and others I probibly didnt find. I started a new file and could use these.
What was going on.

I still can't use my Logitech mouse in MacOS 9.2.2. I can move the pointer around but I can't click on anything.
I had this problem in the last version, but I never posted about it. After I reach the maximum Uplink rating for unregistered users, I get an email about once every four hours saying that I've reached the maximum rating. It's not harmful at all, just a minor inconvenience.
athomson: Logitech mice don't seem to work with Uplink. If you have another mouse, use it for the time being.

This is due to some changes between 1.3.1 and 1.3.2.

The solution to this is to uninstall the Logitech MouseWorks software.

This is not a bug. It is there to remind you why you aren't progressing any farther in the game.

Problems with IRC..
Connnection doesnt get past Checking Ident.
Could this be due to OSX's firewall?
Also, many graphical glitches when opening IRC client - IRC doesnt fill up the entire window, so parts of the background cover up parts of the users box, and text entry field.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or an incompatibility issue ...
I've had some trouble with LANs since I upgraded. Sometimes when I run LanScan and LanProbe, nothing at all shows up, except the initial router or modem. If I log out and then in again, sometimes the programs work correctly.
The reason I think it's posssible that this is an incompatibility issue is that I happen to be working on a "challenge" file from modlink just now. (This is a lot of fun, by the way). I didn't start the LAN part of the challenge until after I upgraded, so I'm not sure how much of the problem comes from the challenge user file, and how much from the program.
It's intermitant, so it's hard to test rigorously.
------------------ r
I ran into this same problem with LAN scan & LAN probe on the challenge missions you pointed me to - they're great I updated yesterday or the day before and just started the challenge missions today. I'd never experienced this problem before starting the challenge mission
------------------ Jump HIGH & Swing HARD!!
Here's a bug I found in 1.31 but didn't get fixed in 1.32.
When the ARC job comes up to frame the head tech at Arunmor (sp?), I go ahead, try to crack into the bank, change the logs to frame him. About 12 Uplink hours later I check the news to see Whatever Bank was hacked into. Then the news has a post about the Feds taking down the guy I framed in a 'dawn raid'. Funny thing - I was expecting something a little more out-of-the-ordinary. The news post looked like any other 'Hacker taken down' post. Nothing about Arunmor.
Anyway, I respond to the email from ARC. Response says the dude doesn't look like he's been framed. Yeah, whatever.

Hmm. It may be the challenge usr file then. I'll have to see if I can duplicate the effect with a Mac native file.
(Those LANs are tricky enough without adding software weirdnesses <grin> ).
I have another possible bug (in the same game, so I need to see if I can duplicate it with another user file) ... sometimes when I am deleting a series of logs, the log-deleter program suddenly shuts down and I have to load it again. very annoying when I'm trying to work quickly.
I experienced the same LAN problem immediately after I upgraded and I wasn't doing a challenge mission. I didn't have problems probing or scanning but, I did have trouble with the connect button. After opening all of the locks, sometimes the Main Server would let me connect and sometimes not. The button would act like I was trying to connect to a terminal which, was connected to a different modem.
This is because of the LogicTech mouse drivers; try disabling them.

I have been having a problem with 1.3.2 and some downloaded LANs. I have recently been experiencing some system instability recently so when running on high CPU loads or high system bus loads.... the system would lock. I fixed this problem, but each crash would corrupt the LAN information in my user file, crashing Uplink whenever I try to connect to a LAN I had previously connected to....
Odd...
A clean user file, a bank hank later, and I can go into the LANs just fine... haven't had a problem since my lockups stopped. However, this might cause a problem for others in the future.
This isn't really a bug, but I thought I should post it somewhere (or would this be better emailed to someone?).
I just was looking at the Register Uplink app, and it says in the opening screen that Uplink is $29.99. The website claims it is $25 (I believe the web site).
In any case, it might be a good idea to fix this in any future releases.
