Well sorry for the flash back, but I have the urge to play this game again. But it would seem that it is not compatible with XP (go figure). But after some research I found out about this patch, its called "mech2.py" but all the links are broke, so I was wondering if anyone had a copy of it on their computer.

Dang, edit ran out of time right as I clicked "Apply Message Changes".
Well that was the patch for version 1.1, apparently that fix for XP needs it to be that version, but I can't get it to update for XP, arg!

Oblivion, don't suppose it works on your computer right now, because if it does, could you just copy the MW2 Mercenaries directory, and put it on FileFront/planet or something like that so I could download it and past it over my directory?

Nah I lost those disks years ago, I just happen to have a folder for my older games that had updates and things in it. Have you tried putting win95 compatibility on all the exe's in the folder?

(I'm sure you did it to the main one but maybe not to all)

I think there's a way to get a XP to work with older games... Just google "Get older PC games to work with Windows XP", although I've tried this for a 95 game, didn't work. I don't know about Mech Warriors though.

Yah I have, but it did not help much, it said something about not able to innate w95int32.dll or something like that. I downloaded the file and put it in my system folder but it didn't help anything.

XP runs some older games fine, some in an interesting state... (flying at about 200000000000000000 MPH, anyone?) and some not at all. Your best solution would be to find somewhere to install Windows 95 to, although you have to watch it... WIn95 thinks all HDDs are smaller than 8 GB.

Renguard is a wonderful initiative
