I'm downloading it from America OnLine as I type these words. Tomorrow
morning, I will be at the school bookstore to to try it on a 8100/80/av
with a 16" monitor. If I'm not back by Friday, please send a rescue team.

If it's allowed could you upload it to one of the archives? I don't have
a PPC but people who do might like to see a native PPC demo of a
game like PID.

I have sent this to Sumex (or somewhere else in cyberspace). It's 4:13 in
the morning! Why am I still here?

The "Power Pathways" demo will be uploaded to all the usual sites
on Friday, April 8 and should appear shortly after that. Along with the
demo (which has three completely new levels) the free updater to
the full version of Pathways for Power Macs will be uploaded.
Later,
Jason

Ahhhhhh! A big, wet, sloppy *SMACK* to ya'! I hope more companies will
be this repsonsive to the 68K -> PMac community.
Kudos to Bungie on this!!
(Now if 600 bucks would just fall on my head for a PDS upgrade I'd
be all set!)

I've played this for a couple of hours on a 6100/60 and a 8100/80/AV. In
the powerPC version, the ceiling and floors are texture mapped as well.
There is no option for lores/hires in the ppc version, only plain floors or
textured floors.
It feels slightly snappier on the PPC version (with everything turned on).

Upload the upgrade and put it on sumex or umich!
Bungie pulled the updater from their software area on AOL, so noone can
get it anymore...who knows why?
