Seems i got some problems :laugh:

Anybody know of some updates on the interwebs i might be interested in? I think i can take care of the glitch problem but i could use a higher res.

Welcome to the future...NAAAAAAAA NAAAAAA NANANANANANANA

weird, try to run it in compatability mode with 98 that might help, other than that looks like your cars overheating but i doubt it.

PP Mguire · Jan 6, 2010

Nah just an old game type of glitch and that screen was taken in 98 compat mode lol.

Im downloading the latest patch for it, heres hoping. According to some Googling the game can support up to 1600x1200 but it crashes Hmmmm

mech warrior 3 is aweome game, you just gave me the urge to play it some

PP Mguire · Jan 6, 2010

Well i hope you dont have that glitch problem like me. Its a pain in the ass and so im gonna see about installing it on my XP drive. I know it works on XP.

i dont see the issue your obviously devistating everything in sight.

There is no way of fixing that. I've tried it and never managed to fix it. So i've installed it on my netbook, pluged in my keyboard and mouse and my LCD monitor. And played it with WinXP on Intel GMA950 where it worked just fine. The reason is probably Radeon or Catalyst drivers...

Naw, those are just sweet 8-bit particle effects!

Havent tried it yet, but i think i can get it to run when i get a new patch cable for my Voodoo2 setup. I have a patch to run it on Voodoo 2 and with those and XP drivers it SHOULD work right. In the mean time its Mech 4 Mercenaries time. :rockout:

I have just finished the game.. However, I have an old Voodoo card, that's how I got mine to work. Other than that, I also got that thing you have. I guess you are running it in software mode, yes? I tried first with hardware mode, but didn't get anywhere. Then tried a GlideWrapper from the Guru3d, same there - didn't solve it. So I had to install the Voodoo card (and remove soundcard instead).

There is a patch available, actually 2 different ones. One is for a compatibility issue under XP and one is just a patch for the game.

Even went so far first, so I tested it on an older machine, but same issue there.
I think I had a patch on the Pirates Moon CD even, but otherwise test Patches-Scrolls.de and see if there is any newer patches released.

I play my older games on my "legacy gaming rig"

My old AMD Duron 700Mhz with a G-Force 2 64MB running Windows 98 SE.

Hehe, this machine has been ticking over for some 10 years by now. Still runs as reliably as day one.

Very handy to have for the older games.
