Piracy on the spring forums? More likely than you think.

This is abandonware isnt it?

Possible, considering it's about 13 years old now. Anyone who is adept at using google and not completely braindead can acquire his own rip or iso of the game anyway.

damn im braindead ^^

i was searching like about 2 years to find a version which is compatible with xp^^

in my meaning copyrigth should be "I cant buy it, I can share it :)".

i can remember seeing screenshots of that robot guy in magazines a few years back..

looks like they are all from fmv's though..


do you have any screenies from in game?

here is a video of it http://zzone.lewe.com/downdown/level_20_kimocn.flv 22MB

Awesome. Still have my original CD. One-of-a-kind game. The UI kinda sucked, but the gameplay I haven't seen since.

DosBox

Or VDMSound, I got it work with both ages ago. I've got my original copy in the basement somewhere, but it's in funny speak (as in german).

Doh! Never mind.

Edit to save this post: rocket soldiers in APC's were really strong in this game...

I played it as a kid, never made it far since I couldn't figure it out very well and tanks seemed OP to me as they oneshot everything else.

I watched a friend play it on the PSX back then, he was a lot better at it than I was on the PC.

Warezes are illicit on this bulletin, yes?

Correct.

Dont you have to dick around alot in notepad to get this to work on dosbox?

Did it have any special requirements or incompatiblities? I can't remember if I actually got it to work in dosbox, but it should run fine in a shell window with VDMSound (2.1someting, some older but better release).

i´m running it now on xp without dosbox or something like that...

kdr... tanks are good, like in real life :D

i love always is to sniper the bot out of the tank then i can hijack it :)

u need to micro tanks then u can kill with a medium tank without problems a heavy tank or a rocket tank

i remember playing the demo of this like a billion years ago on my sweet ass 486

Don't think there's any reason why you would have to, no, few configuration options in DOSBox has anything to do with compatibility at all.

There isn't even much reason to go text editing much at all when using DOSBox really, as the standard settings are pretty decent, launching games is just drag and drop and there are frontends available.
