prob with simcity 4 deluxe on mac via parallels hi i installed simcity 4 deluxe on my mac through the parallels desktop software (my game being a pc game) and i started playing it fine. i then changed the screen resolution and the game told me that the changes wouldn't initiate until a restart. anyways, i saved my game and went to replay the game. it runs the only problem is that there's just a black screen now - there's a split second of pink static and then i can see the image of the game - and then it just stays black and i can't do anything. i mean its running i.e the music is playing, if i randomly click it (i.e the 'map' page) will open a game file but the blackness....why???? help please???
Mac is evil. Is this parallels software some kind of VM? I would look around the SC4 install location for some kind of configuration document and see if you can edit the screen resolution in that. I don't have SC4 installed on this desktop right now, if I install it later I will try and find the config file and post back.
