Actually, Mechwarrior2:mercs lets you continue with the random missions. I have the titanium edition and it let me. There was a patch for that game, and it was publically released. As far as I know, the only difference between Mercs Titanium edition and patched Mercs is that the titan edition has 3d accelleration.

I spent many hours with this game in 1991-92. It was form me a first game with 1st person shooting part. I loved to hire and dissmiss new crew and command them in battles. And then see how their skills grow during succesful batles. Sometimes I invited friend to help, because commanding 4 additional mechs, and driving and shooting at same time with your own it was pretty taugh task sometimes for one. What I remember yet - negotianting missions, trading with spare parts and ammunitions while buyimg them on one planet and selling on another. Travelling while searching some specific spare parts for your mechs. etc. This was certainly my best game at this time. Thanks.

IIRC, it's non-WIN-compatibile. Try DosBox, works like a charm (and should work VERY well even on slower machines).

I have been looking for the original Mechwarrior for years if anyone knows where to get it or wants to sell a copy with code book my e-mail is ***edit by strobe
I got to play the original at a friends years ago have always wanted to play again.
Front Mission 3 is Good and FM4 is ok great features but too short of a game I thought. Let me know.

***sorry, but this game is ESA-protected, so there's no way to get it but buying it

http://www.the-underdogs.org . They have ESA's permission for hosting the game.

Strobe, don't you think it was a little harsh on him? From what I understood wasn't asking for w***z, but for possible buy link or a trade offer of a second-hand copy.

Either way, I doubt this is possible. No data storage device - especially a floppy - can survive for 14 years undamaged.

:ranting: Another goddamn n00b.

Read the post just before yours. It's not like I didn't give a link to a site which has the hosting permission and not like I have not explained why it cannot be hosted here.
