Re: [mac-homm] Re: Heroes III Complete Patch

Hmm... it seems like they're sending it to everybody but me. :)

I noticed the mouse movement thing as well, but I figured it was an issue
with the operating system. Either way, it is a minor detail and not
something that bothered me at all. Thanks for posting the fix anyway. It
will probably end up on my website in the future.

... I haven't had this at all - not even on the original Erathia CD. I have a G4 with 192 MB, so maybe it's a memory thing. Mind you, I'm having big problems...
