On a related note:
"Your current hardware or driver setup is not compatible with MechWarrior 4" Anybody know what to do with this? I looked around the web, on Mektek they had some threads that did not help. Other sources suggest it's a driver problem . . I am trying to install it for a buddy of mine and this keeps cropping up. On my LAPTOP with the SAME VISTA it's running without Problem so far . . |

This is kind of neat. IGN's "Rewind" of the MW trailer.

QUOTE (Stahlseele @ Jul 9 2009, 04:44 PM)  ACTUALLY they just announced the Return of the older Models. The Unseen are back. They got official License to use the MAcross and Dougram Designs. That's sweet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Bye Thanee |

On my LAPTOP with the SAME VISTA it's running without Problem so far . . I don't know your background in computers, but I'd start with checking the hardware requirements (the hardware may require a specific chipset), going through and updating all of your drivers, especially your video drivers, perhaps disable hardware acceleration or alter whatever the interlinking pages or whatever option that is there, and try running the game in a different mode (like WinXP). I couldn't run GTA San Andreas on a computer way better than the minimum specs, because of some silly hardware acceleration option I had to toggle. |

This totally has me firing up Megamek full of old Unseens and stuff, just to get back into the "old tech" groove. I'm in a current (rl, tabletop) campaign set in 3039 or so, that's been a blast...but just the announcement about this game has me wanting to play rompin' stompin' robots even more old school.

The war of 39, a mechs/RPG/shooter mix about finding mechs in the Kurita underworld to stop the Davion incursion... one can dream, right?

As far as we can tell, it's being built on the UE3(UnrealEngine3) which should make modding it easy enough that such things are not too far off actually ^^ |

Holler if anyone wants to try and get a MegaMek game going some time. I've yet to try multiplayer (I mostly use it to experiment with Lance formations against the computer), but I'm always in the mood for some Battletech, lately. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Hell, once the freebie MW4 is released, I'd be down for some Multiplayer of that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I'll suck. But I'll still be down. |

I'm glad they're setting it before the Clan invasion. I've always had a soft spot for level 1 play; the increase in lethality in later eras makes tactical play less meaningful, IMO.

I just set up an account at megamekwars, which uses megamek to fight campaign-style battles (with each player tracking their batch of 8-9 meks, earning and spending c-bills, pilots earning xp, etc). So far I've only played a few tutorial matches, but it's pretty fun. There's just a big lobby where you ask who feels like a game, etc, etc, and then you throw down.
Tech level seems to be about 3025-ish, so it might be a fun way for folks to get their "fix." |

QUOTE (Dumori @ Jul 19 2009, 08:54 PM) I was asking more for any ETA on the MW4 release. Days, maybe some weeks. MekTek literally got blindsided by this. They were bascially told one day: "OK, here's the deal, we want publicity, the Community knows and likes your work. Go, make a crack, get out the serial numbers, make it work, you can release it for free . . your stuff and all official upgrades included" So, yeah, they are doing their best to get it out there, before this gets retracted. |

That's what's the main topic of discussion is right now, concerning this matter.
Nobody knows as of yet. not even the officials it seems. And there's probably not going to be any important News until after GenCon we are afraid. But it seems one of the Models affected is, in fact the warhammer. Now what mech did we see prominently featuring in the new Mechwarrior Game Video? Exactly. Concern regarding this matter is high. |
