Battlepack custom varients not saving.

Hi, first post here. I found a copy of the battlepack disc in a charity shop, and installed it using mechVM. I have windows 7 64 bit (Came preinstalled on the computer).
I'm trying to put in a custom Summoner mech (The M if you're curious, tech readout 3050.) and every time I come out of the mechlab, my custom varrient isn't there. Always reverts to the prime.

Is there by chance an error that says that your mech is overweight when you are trying to save?

For the defined mission parameters, however on Trial of Greivence mode I have kicked off the other star mates and still doesn't As for the total tonage of the mech itself, no complaints. (All I'm doing is replacing the LRM 15 on the Summoner with a Streak 6)

Unfortunately that is a known bug. Sometimes it cannot be fixed; especially, since you are not using a standard version of the game.
I can only really point you to
Slug's hook and suggest you give that a try. It may or may not fix it with that version of the game.

For running BattlePack, currently the best solution is probably VMWare Player. Virtual PC may not offer sufficient performance.
I noticed that it would be possible to integrate MechVM shell with Battlepack, but haven't found the time to do this yet.
