Howdy. I just purchased an Apple color monitor and a RasterOps 24-bit color board for my Mac SE/30. And I'm curious to find out how many of the games I have, in particular the games built for color that I've been playing in black and white, will run properly on the color monitor of the SE/30. I'm looking for people who have the same general configuration (maybe an 8-bit board instead of a 24-bit one) who can tell me that they are having/not having problems running these particular games, either in color *or* black and white. I'm worried about applications which can't quite figure out how color can be running on an SE/30 (one little black-and-white screen, one color one...), and want to find out in advance which ones I might expect problems from. Here's the ones I'm looking for yea/nay verification on: * Shanghai 2.0 * Falcon 2.2 * Spaceward Ho! 1.1 * Strategic Conquest 3.01 * NetTrek v 3.0 * Chris Crawford's Trust & Betrayal * SimCity Supreme 1.2C (is this the 32-bit color version? I currently have the "regular" version, 1.1, and was thinking of upgrading to this version.) * The Colony ---- Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, folks.

I'm I've never had any problems with any games which support color running on my SE/30, Micron XCeed 8-bit card. I do wonder, though, why you're asking the net if you already have the color card, monitor, and the games -- it only takes 30 seconds to try them out and see...
