Life imitates Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri

Honestly... doesn't this look like a borehole or something?

I can't see the image, but you should still stop from tempting me to play that game again.

Hey, any idea on how to extract the "Secret Project" movies? I love the one for the Cloning Vats.

Sorry, no idea.

Curses! I loved those movies.

You can just play them with the player, I think it's called "playuv15.exe" or something. If you look in the SMAC directory, it'll be there somewhere. Then you can just open the SMAC movie directory in explorer, choose "open with" and select the player application, and play the movies without needing to actually open them in the game.

Yay! Time to dig out the install CD!

Of course, once it's installed on my system, how will I avoid playing it?
