MechWarrior 2: Resource Forum

Sorry, yea I used the actual cd to make the iso file. I will have a look at that tut just in case though.

It took me a long time to understand that haha. This has been doing my head in like you wouldn't imagine but I persist because this was probably my favourite game of all time :) For some reason when its time to fire up the game its not looking at the right spot for the disc. Or its looking for the w...

then could the problem be I am using the D: too? maybe if i change that to F: or something?

changed it to H:\ still not working. Must have to hold my tongue the right way. Oh well. I appreciate the help.

should you be mounting it to C: though?

reinstalled with the iso format and that still wont detect the image. there must be something wrong with something ive done somewhere along the way.

I do get the message, but I cant see any servers up, is there supposed to be? And no I can't launch single player mercs in dos because it cant find the cd. Am I supposed to install it through dos or mechVM? I've actually been installing it from the dos\install file. I might try just the setup file i...

Well, I changed the end bit to -t iso but it still wont detect the disc. So my hopes for mercnet have been once again disabled. Is there a step I'm missing? Like is there another line you have to enter later on to make dos read the image?

mount D C:\MECHVM\games
imgmount G C:\Virtual_Images\MERCS.cue -t cdrom -fs iso
D:
IPXNET CONNECT mech2.org 10001

this will let me install the game over dosbox when i type g:\dos\install but i still cant detect the disc when i run mercnet off d:\

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
mount C C:\MERCNET\
C:
imgmount D "C:\Virtual_Images\MERCENARIES.mds" -t iso
IPXNET CONNECT mech2.org 10001

Do i actually need a bin/cue file or is mds/mdf fine? It says could not mount the image

I feel as if I'm the only retard here who can not get Mercnet to run. It still won't detect a CD, either mounted virtually on drive E or with the disc in D. I don't know how to use Dosbox very well so that's probably half the problem. I bought Titanium which I can get to work on single player but I ...
