SWGB (and AOE2) aren't compatable mac to pc. It's microsoft's fault :mad:. Sorry.

I think they were too lazy to fix the endian on the network packets. This is true of AoE2 also. If they ever come out with a Mac version of Rise of Nations (next step on the AoE->SWGB line), maybe they'll fix it.

In the meantime, you might try playing through the Game Ranger. I think it has logic to swap endians.
