MechWarrior 2: Resource Forum

what compilor dose mw2 use?

do you mean what they compiled mech2 with?
WATCOM C/C++32 Run-Time system. (c) Copyright by WATCOM International Corp. 1988-1994
So I am pretty sure they used Watcom in most instances.

yeah thats what i wanted thanks. Itlooks like this project is going in a way diffrent way than i wanted looks like i have to make the graphics engine from scratch dose anyone have any tips on this. thx

In the extractor is there a display like the one in the fourm topic netmech lab, first glimps. If so how do i get to it. is it under the mechbay tab.

Choose "View File", then open MW2.PRJ to explore its contents. The WTB files contain the mech parts.

If you want to see complete mechs, use the "import" button in the toolbar. It will import and assemble the mechs from your CD. They are stored in a subdirectory of MechVM.

When i click import it says 0 mechs imported

Have you inserted a MW2 CD? Which one? You have to click the drive letter with that CD inserted. Not all CD types are supported yet.

Its MW2 dos version. I have indicated that it's in my cd drive letter E. Yet nothing happens.

Alright, you found a bug. MechVM tried to import from the wrong path with this CD type. However, GBL and Mercs contain more models anyway. Please try importing from another CD type until I upload the next MechVM release. It will support the Pentium Edition CDs.

K i can import the mechs but i can't see them how do i get them to show.
