What command lines have you discovered?

Post by Serlestain »

I'm very curious since this is something I got into waaaay back (I even managed to remember the password to get into the Team NXP stuff!). I was never able to pull netmechs command lines to figure out how to make a shell to invoke it. What have you discovered? I feel all giddy like a schoolgirl that so many people have been modding! Also have you had any luck trying to invoke GBL's multiplayer?

The GBL engine was the best of em and I use to dream of getting the multiplayer to work with it.

I could bug you all day with questions but if you can shed some light on those that would be awesome.

We have been experimenting with invoking NetMech over command line to the point where I am confident we can recreate the NetMech shell. I have a rudimentary NetMech shell running, but it's not really working yet since network support is missing. I think I'll finish the 31stCC and GBL shells first.

I made a little DOS tool that would display the call parameters instead of running the sim. I haven't looked at it in months, but by using the same command, MMPD and I were able to launch into NetMech without using NetMech shell.
