@Shepard: Be sure to use the latest SCI from the development trunk, cause it has some important fixes.
You can get it from here (Unstable 1.13 SCI):

The stuck AI on enemy interrupts is fixed. This bug happened about 50% on enemy interrupts. If that happens the server had to press ALT+E as a workaround. Like said before, this bug is fixed now.

sorry to be a pain, seems you have visited it more recently than me, could you link the old wrong topics.

as for mac, i dont know but i would suspect if you can play ja2 you could play mp on one.

there is also that bootcamp thingy

yes its the thing with turn based, they may seem uninteresting and slow till you get into them and have a great time.

glad your having some fun from it.

http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php/topics/201231/1/JA2_Multiplayer_Information.html (in Installation & How2Start, readme has old information. First link to install 1.13 mod doesnt work, it also says you must install ja2 MP separately = and that last ja2 MP link doesnt work)

This post has the same missing links: http://www.ja-galaxy-forum.com/board/ubbthreads.php/topics/234613/Readme_How_to_Install_and_Star.html#Post234613

Hi guys,
I would really like to try out the Multiplayer Modus.
But I'm confused with all these threads. I'm here so far:
- having installed JA2 from GOG.com
- downloaded the SCI:
* JA2_113_FullRelease_English_4870
* JA2_113_UpdateForRelease4870_English

Was that correct? What multiplayer files do I have to install now and where to find them?
Thank you!

None, it's all included with the main project now.
Now the hard part comes: Finding someone to play with.

i have played a lot of mp and for me its not worth it yet.

please please dont take it the wrong way what has been done is so impressive but i get constant crashes,freezes etc ec.

i have reported them on the 1.13 bug tracker pace and some of the bugs have been fixed but most of the time it just freezes.

shame asmp could make this game the best game ever nothing else comes close to it.

so yeah please 1.13 team dont take it the wrong way what you have done is so amazing its just that i am gutted mp dont get the atention sp does.
i understand why sp aint even finished yet.

Is the ALT+E feature not working a relative "new" bug? In older versions (e.g: 4780, ...) is works, or?
