What ^ said. Although, it'd be harder to find any good games Volition has made recently.

Me again. I'm still confused about what happens after I get the .iso files. Some help please?

[karajorma]

Pretty simple. Either you

1) Open up your CD burning software and choose the burn image option

2) Do a google search for Daemon-Tools, download it and set it up to provide you with a fake CD drive which will treat the image files as if they were real (Actually a lot easier than it sounds).

Personally I'd do the second to install/play the game and then back up using the first method.

Run the setup, you'll see it.

Been a few years, and nobody's taken the shot yet:

Pretty neat how :V: is/was so nice about it. Usually game companies go bonkers about that sort of stuff.

Well, it might have gotten them a few more sales. I mean...I know that if I hear a good CD (don't trade games with friends much) and they offer to burn it, I'll usually take it. If it's a real good CD though, I'll usually buy a copy. They could have possibly been trying to get some more sales from that. Nothing to lose anyway. The people that are recieving the free copy probably would have never bought it anyway.

Hmm. With a name being "good wish", what did you expect?

[ET-1087]

Well...I got it working.




Thanks for all the help. Now just to set my old Wingman Extream Joystick up. That's gonna be fuuuun.

Ah well.

Okay, so now I've beaten the SP part of FS2....how about the MP?

When I try to register with parallax I get an error. Nothing I can do works around this. When I even try -hosting- a game using the MP in FS2 it crashes. Some help please? What do i need to post?

And another thing. Can anyony give me a link to the cutscenes? Because I don't seem to have them. They are on the cd, but they don't copy over...help.

[karajorma]

The cutscenes won't transfer across from the CD automatically even on a full install. Retail was designed to be played with the CDs in the CD drive so the cutscenes would play off the CD when required.

As long as you aren't using FS2_Open the cutscenes can simply be copied off the CD to your freespace2 folder and they'll work just fine. It will still ask you for the CDs though most likely.

There's a cracked exe on my website's download section. Try the HotU crack pack for an exe that should play cutscenes but which doesn't require the CDs.

Well Interplay never update their main site so i assume'd their dead. Well AFAIK.
