Product Description:

Age of Mythology transports players to a time when heroes did battle with monsters of legend and the gods intervened in the affairs of mortal men. Age of Mythology was created by Ensemble Studios. Players guide one of nine ancient civilizations to greatness by commanding all aspects of their empire, from establishing profitable trade routes and building new settlements to waging war and advancing through four distinct ages. In their struggle for supremacy, players can use mythological creatures like Minotaurs and Cyclopses to bolster their armies' strength, and they can call upon the gods for assistance in flattening enemy towns with meteors or scattering opposing troops with lightning storms.

What's new in this version:

Updated the code base to PC version 1.07. (These changes are listed in detail below in section E.)
Most of the changes for this version were for improving GameRanger support, which now works much better overall. In addition, the following specific changes were made:
-- The initial connection process for GameRanger games is much more reliable now, especially when running behind a router.
-- Added support for GameRanger Premium.
-- Online games now work from dial-up connections.
-- Startup movies are skipped when launching GameRanger games.
The 1.01 version is now network compatible across all different language versions. English, French, and German versions can play network and online games.
Both "delete" keys (the large one and the small one above the arrow keys) will now destroy units and buildings.
Cmd-Shift-P will pause the game (useful for laptops).
Occasionally the installer will leave a few files with truncated file names. The application now looks for these and renames them at launch time.
Fixed a crash bug that occurred when you looked at the Help page for certain units (the "Giant Killer Einherjar", for example).
Fixed a bug where units that have been hurled through the air (from a meteor attack, for example) would sometimes stop right above the ground and stay there, helplessly flailing away.
Fixed a bug where you could garrison units inside of the hero unit Amanra.
Removed a few PC-specific items from the Options screen.
Fixed the warning for saving over existing files for save games.
Added support for the middle mouse button, which cycles through latest notifications.
Added support for saving and loading files with "extended" characters with accent marks (this is mainly for foreign versions).
Slight performance improvements.

No Mac update files - Version: 1.0.1, 4/2/2008 12:16AM PST

I tried to download updates to several programs and found that the site both VersionTracker (VT) and MacUpdate (MU) use as a mirror (Planet Mirror) no longer has any valid links to Apple and/or Mac files which tells me they do not actively support any Apple Products period. VT and MU need to manage Apple files locally. Hence there is no version 1.0.1 file for AoM. Please advise...

Planet Mirror no longer supports Apple/Mac files - Version: 1.0.1, 4/2/2008 12:15AM PST
