Well I finished downloading and I guess it auto-installed, but when I go to play it asks me for a Disk 2...I'm not really sure what to do now since the site is apparently getting nailed hard cause I can't get on it again lol

Yeah, i read somewhere that until they get they reach the official greenlight day Microsoft gave them, they have to keep the disk check in.  I think by Sunday it should be gone though.

Is it just me or is MTX broken. Can't get it to run without crashing and it thinks I'm not on the internet.

That MTX thing is a piece of crap.  It was constantly working slow and taking forever to just check on it when going from a webpage, like it was hogging up so many resources, it was more taxing than a videogame lol

Can they seriously not distribute this as a torrent?


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - Surf314 - 05-01-2010

Yea I can't download MW4, it keeps giving me errors like I'm not connected to the internet. MTX sucks.

It is a torrent. That's what MTX is basically from what I can tell.  Like a proprietary torrent.  Just that when it's done, it does the installing work itself.


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - [fr31ns]Karrde - 05-03-2010

Well, I got MTX....it just doesn't work ;P


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - Kirby - 05-03-2010

Too lazy to look and see what MW games are being distributed... but if it's MW4 Vengeance, MW4 Black Knights EXP or MW4 Mercs, I have originals of all 3 and can make ISO's

They updated it for modern windows and better graphics. Speaking of which does anyone know the other fan update games? I heard Theif and System Shock were both being worked on.


Also what is assault tech1: battle tech?


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - Dtrain323i - 05-03-2010

screw MW4, if any of the games need an update/free download it should be Mechwarrior 3. Which IMO is the best of all of them.


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - Maxon - 05-03-2010

Well still can't play the game, MTX won't open cause it keeps wanting to download an update, and I can't uninstall the game cause apparently it goes through the MTX program lol


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - [fr31ns]Karrde - 05-04-2010

Man, MTX is really bad.  Why are they making it so reliant on their own website anyway?  It should really only contact the main servers when it absolutely needs to.  They don't seem to have enough BW to handle this shit.

*edit*

Well balls, got it on, but looks like they still haven't pulled the "disc 2" thing yet.  WTF are they doing releasing something as "free" without getting final clearance anyway?


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - Kirby - 05-05-2010

I installed MTX, tried to launch it, it sat there for 2 hours doing nothing before I lol'ed at people who release things without testing and deleted the entire folder.

I mean seriously, who makes somthing and doesn't include an uninstaller?

Crappy release is crappy.


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - Odin - 05-06-2010

I still have the old Mercs ISOs I copied ages ago, so jokes on you guys.

Surf: AT1 is a still in development MW2 style remake.  Got the free floating reticle, independent torso twist, all the complicated simulation stuff.

Mercs is supposed to get free floating reticle in the next mech pak.  Havn't really kept up with the game for months so I dunno anymore.


Re: mechwarrior 4 is free soon - [fr31ns]Karrde - 05-06-2010

That letting you get passed the CD check?  If it is, please don't upload the ISO somewhere and definitely do not PM me any links.

Uh its letting me get past the CD check because I'm running the ISO on Daemon Tools instead of using whatever shitty downloader the free MW4 uses.  I'll see if I can dig up the ISOs for you.

Do you use Win7 Odin?



I'm assuming not because of your post, because under Win7, the game locks up w/ the ancient copy-protection and will not load.

I can confirm all this because I

A) Have legit CD copys of all the games

B) They will not launch under Win7 because of said ancient protection

C) Have a legit copy of the latest Daemon Tools Advanced, and game still does not load with .ISO from CD.
