Re: Reintroduce/introduce your selves here

Yes, I have indeed noticed one thing is that the modding scene is up, and according to your info on the FEFF tag, that it is possible to add extra mechs without replacing old ones? I think that's pretty awesome. I'll have to learn this stuff myself. We could start a project to re-create some *or all...

Re: Upgrading your Softkey/AOL Edition [Or not! last post]

Hmm, I'll have to try it in just XP then. And yes, what you did is basically what I did as well. I wonder what I did differently. I think, it happened because i may have forgotten to rip the AOL CD image as a protected mode disc before putting the music on it, though I'm not entirely sure. I guess I...

Re: Upgrading your Softkey/AOL Edition to have music

Aw damn it, Mech2 doesn't want to detect the new CD. (Yes, I did a CUE/BIN pair, protected mode, yadda yadda)

That's balls, man.


Does anyone know what MECH2.EXE looks for to determine the CD? If not, I don't see a way to fix this.

Re: So, whatever happened to MercNet?

So did the package have the entire Mercs MW2.PRJ? Or a cut-down version just for multiplayer stuff?

Upgrading your Softkey/AOL Edition [Or not! last post]

I borrowed a copy of the DOS/95 Retail for 31CC from a friend and noticed the games they install are exactly the same. Here's what I have noticed are the same: -Same game files -Both Win95 AND DOS included Now, here are the differences between the two. Softkey gets some pros and cons here. -Softkey ...

Re: Reintroduce/introduce your selves here

Hey guys - MG_Man's here.

I've been missing a while, haven't I? I guess I sorta lost interest.

I'll see if I can start playing some more.

So, whatever happened to MercNet?

I personally like the large selection of Mechs in Mercs and being able to play online.

However, the file is down (even though it seems the virus was just a false-positive)

Anyone happen to still have this?

Re: NetMech and DosBox 0.73 (testing...)

Also, the new shell should have a controls config too...Even though the file is human-readable, it's nice to a...
