i'm running a macmini with osx i tried to open a game ( damage inc. demo 1.1) and got a window that said the classic environment is no longer supported.
does this mean i mighta thrown it out when cleaning out junk?
if so, how to get it back? please advise.

It means the game needs classic Mac OS to run and since you're using OS X it's not going to work.

Regards.

Only if you got OS 9.1 or later also installed.

I think that up to 10.4 supports Classic environment, if I am not mistaken.

Still only if OS 9 drivers are selected at time of install and to run the game needs a Classic OS installed.
