December 5, 2007 6:00 AMThe latest newsletter from Spiderweb Software reveals that the company's next title, after Avernum 5 for Windows users is completed, will be Geneforge 5, the conclusion to the RPG series. The newsletter also includes explanation for some of the issues Leopard users may be experiencing when playing Spiderweb games and promises quick updates for the most recent titles.Macintosh Users Problems With Leopard Alas, Leopard, the newest version of the Macintosh operating system, has caused quite a few problems. Some games have corrupted graphics (odd, horizontal lines of dots on the screen). Others don't work at all, especially on the newest MacBooks with the X3100 graphics chip. Most of these problems are caused by Apple's very hasty abandonment of Quickdraw, the graphics system the Mac used since it was first introduced. We know what is causing these problems, and we are working on fixes. However, for some of the older games, updating them to work on Leopard will be very time-consuming, since they were all written to use Quickdraw. We have to decide which ones are worth upgrading. We will definitely update Avernum 4, Geneforge 4: Rebellion, Blades of Avernum, and Nethergate: Resurrection. Versions which are completely compatible with Leopard should be out before the end of December. If you need a new version, keep an eye on our web site. And What Is To Come? After Avernum 5 for Windows, we will spend 2008 writing Geneforge 5, the final game in the Geneforge saga. We have begun piecing its storyline together, and we can promise Geneforge fans a truly unique journey.Click over to Spiderweb Software's website for more information about all of its games.Spiderweb Software
