Hey, if you have a 386, 486, or very early Pentium computer with a Cirrus Logic Graphics card, and your older Maxis "Sim" games are acting awry, well, I found the fix with this extra vintage update file called TSRFONT.COM. I have offered it on my website https://creepingnet.neocities.com

The computer in Question is a 1995 NanTan Notebook FMAP9200 - this laptop comes with a Cirrus Logic CL GD-6440 1MB SVGA VESA circuit graphics card in it, and when you run SimCity, SimAnt, SimEarth, and possibly others, you get garbled graphics. The patch fixes this problem with such machines.
