the game was like tiberiun sun only its post war barbarians using octopuses and dolphins, and some sort of strange blimp with the red sickle and hammer crossed... someone got a pin or needle?

C&C: Red Alert 2?

Post war barbarians?

[Stormkeeper]

Sounds Yuri's Revenge.

Command and Conquer Red Alert 2's expansion. The barbarians sound like brutes to me. They punch tanks, yes?

[Al Tarket]

i am not certain however you get enough yuri clones and towers together you got more then enough of a captured battalion of troops and tanks to use, talk about an unfair advantage over one side.

anyone used to play quiver?

Yea, but if psychic towers loose power, you lose control of the captured units. And you can just 'feed' masterminds grunts to make it kill itself. And snipers can deal with the Yuri clones. If you don't have snipers, Terror Drones and dogs will do just fine. IIRC, Brutes can't attack dogs and vice versa.

Re-installed Emperor: Battle for Dune. Bring on the Minotaurs!

=edit=
Anyone know how to stablise framerates on old games? Right now, my Emperor frame rate goes from 60 to 100 then jumps back down, and keeps going up and down.

dosbox

And if you don't want to learn how to configure it, D-FEND Reloaded.

[Al Tarket]

pretty simple,

Code: [Select]

mount c d:\folder\folder
d:
game.exe
the speed of dosbox should of been automatically set so it can played without the insame frame rate speeds.

the speed of dosbox should of been automatically set so it can played without the insame frame rate speeds.

It usually works, but some games, like Stargunner, might encounter problems. Mind you, Stargunner is a VERY nice side-scrolling shooter. It's not as good as Raptor, but close enough. And no way can it beat Tyrian 2000.

[Stormkeeper]

But Emperor is a 2001 game. Will it still work with dosbox?

[Androgeos Exeunt]

Is it a DOS game? If it is, try checking the games list at http://www.dosbox.com.

[Stormkeeper]

Its not. T'was built for XP, iirc.

[Androgeos Exeunt]

Arrr...then don't use DOSBox. It only emulates DOS games and some DOS applications like ImpulseTracker.

i am on planet leeds after meeting up with trent's adoptive father. im not sure how but playing freelancer is making me crave to play gta:sa again, probably the utter random stupidity factor. going around watching random thing go off and then causing choas like flipping cars over and somehow they explode after a few seconds which is highly dubious and rather odd . i will play it after i done freelancer.

current situation: after escaping from liberty > Mactan > wormhole > Planet leeds.

Just picked up "House of the Dead 2" and "The Thing", anyone played these? If so any hints/tips/recommendations etc.?

EDIT....Oh yeah I also picked up "Bet on Soldier" the other day! Anyone played that?

[Stormkeeper]

Downloading Fire Fight from HoTU!

[Androgeos Exeunt]

So did I. I've just finished downloading it. Now, what do I do with it?

[Stormkeeper]

... Play it ?

[Androgeos Exeunt]

... Play it ?

How?

[Stormkeeper]

Apparently the arj is a format 7zip can access; use it to unzip the files, the run the game. I can't seem to start it; i'm attributing that fact to vista.
