I will send you a CD of the game, if you send me an e-mail with your address.

Can anyone please re-upload the full toast image?
Deadlock has a player's manual, a colony leader's guidebook and a tech tree as separate pdf files. Is there any way of having more than one file shown in the Manual category, (since I've uploaded all three)?
Anyway, I've added a zip file containing the Deadlock Player's Manual, Colony Leader's Guidebook and Tech Tree (all in English) to the Downloads section.
My favorite strategy game of all time. Combines elements of Civilization and Sim City to create something endlessly replayable and fun. Better than Alpha Centauri in my personal opinion.
Has anyone tried the game with sheepshaver?
Don't know what happened to that first segment; I had it on my hard drive unsegmented, so I had to re-do the whole thing for upload. Anyone downloading segment one now will have to download the remaining two segments for it to work.
Currently, segment 1 is missing...
Could anyone please re-upload it to an external server?
I recently opened a fan-site dedicated to Deadlock and Deadlock II at www.galliusiv.com. It's not very comprehensive yet, but I will expand it over time.
Greatest strategy game ever made. Pity Deadlock II was never ported to the Macintosh.
The easiest way to open these segments is with drag and drop and Stuffit Expander. Keep an alias of Expander on your desktop, and drag the first segment over it. I think people try to double click on the archive and/or open it in Stuffit Deluxe and it just makes it more confusing.
Could it be possible, for somebody owning the CD, to upload the full version of the game (which runs perfectly in Classic with OS X) on a torrent site ? Many, many thanks in advance !!!
It's huge, 500+ MB. I won't be uploading it anytime soon.
How big is the full version? If it's 50 MB more or so then I don't mind if you overwrite this file. But if it's something like 200 MB more then better create a new page for it and leave this one as the trimmed-down version for people like me who prefer small files to save hard drive space on their machines.
I've had a chance to look this over, and what's uploaded here is actually different from what my CD installs, even though the "read me" file is the same. There are more files included and the application itself has a different modification date. This makes me think it's been patched or cracked somehow, since it definitely doesn't seem to be running in its demo mode. That's a good thing, but where did you get it InkBlot? Just curious. And though it does work, it doesn't have all the music and movies from the CD. They're really quite nice for this game.
I'm playing from the Disk Copy image and everything's fine.
It needs the CD mounted (it does work as a Disk Copy image) to play the full version. Even when stuffed it's well over 500MB. I tried identifying some files it could do without but even then it was still too big. Without the CD it runs as a limited demo.
So sorry, guys. I guess I never thought if it was the full version or not, though I should have realized.
It does work, though.
It didn't compress hardly at all, from what I remember. I'll see if I can take a look tomorrow when I get some time, though I'm guessing we're out of luck until more space/bandwidth becomes available.
@Attila:
Did you compress it with Stuffit? That usually reduces the size by a good bit.
Generally, when the img is mounted with Toast, there is no more CD problem ! But 500 MB is a little too heavy.
I was looking for the full version of this game for years, but in the uploaded version, there is no music, no voices and no video... What a pity !! I'm desperate !
I've got the CD; when I imaged it with Disk Copy it came out to something like 500MB. Didn't really check to see if the version I have could be pared down, but I'm pretty sure it insists on having the CD inserted. Maybe I'll have to take another look. Good game, sort of a cross between Sim City and Civilization.
Great game !!! Thanks for the upload, but is it the full version ???
