Well, I just got the expansion for Alpha Centauri, and I must say that it's pretty cool. However, the garish graphics are really getting in my way.

I heard a rumor on IRC that there are better third party graphics available for this? Is this true? If so, where are they?

Here's a website that has some mods, but they appears only to be for SMAC:
http://apolyton.net/smac/

I'm not sure whether it works on the mac version or not. There are some links to other sites as well, but I think Apolyton is one of the big ones.

I WANT THIS!!!!!! I REALLY WANT THIS!!!!! I have Alpha Centauri and I love it! I think it was one of the best strategy games I have ever played - if not the best. How did you get it? I heard that they only sell it at E-bay now and my browser always, ALWAYS freezes. Could somebody help me out - PLEASE! My e-mail is C3PShrout@aol.com if you know anything. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thank you very much! I owe you a debt of gratitude. Sorry to sound like a freak in my last post there, it's just that I was desperate. I will go and give it a look right now. When I went to Alphacentauri.com I found that the site no longer exists and so I went to yahoo and typed in the name. I found another site and e-mailed the webmaster there and he told me that it is only sold on e-bay now. It's really nice to know that it is not. So you say the graphics are lousy? How so? I did see a 15$ PC version once and the graphics were pretty crappy, but I thought that was only in the PC realm.
