As for jump-jetting, you have to fire the jets in short bursts to control your fall. It takes some practice to get the hang of it.
Don't forget that as long as your mech has both legs, you can stand up after falling prone by pressing U.

I'll try, thx for the tips

I loved this one in my younger days...one of the best game purchases my parents ever made. But does anyone remember the Mechwarrior version on the GEnie network? It was multiplayer and open ended. As you gained experience, you gained rank and the ability to pick planets to invade. You could only play cooperatively, but success/failure in a battle affected the big picture.

Finally!

I loved this game when I was a kid and have wanted to play it again for years! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how to get it going even after downloading. Is there a straight forward step-by-step on how to get the game going on a PC running Windows XP?

Thanks for any help you can provide!
