First step, http://abandonia.com/games/en/964/M.A.X.MechanizedAssaultExploration.htm

You'll probably need a DOS emulator, like DOSbox or VDMSound. Both are pretty easily found on google, and I'm in a bit of a hurry to head back to my game in progress.

It's also a review, so you can get a look at the game. (The story is eerily similar to CC in some ways.)

I grew up with this game, and am pleased to say you can play it as well, however, we need people who can help us out.

Me and Empyreal (He says Hi.) have been trying to figure out how to get a multiplayer match going for it, but have been unable to figure it out, so, um, we need help! :D

I'll be checking this topic every few minutes between turns with 'BASTARD A.I.', as I call him, for any questions about setting up DOSbox, (If you're no good at DOS, use VDMSound, you can right click MAXRUN.exe and just hit use with VDMSound, it'll work easy.)

Also, please note this game has been stripped down... No music, sound, or videos. Still an amazing game though.

Again, any questions, please, ask away.

Bad link.

Also, give a step by step guide to setting up/running the game and the emulator.

Link works fine for me...

Erm, if you're no good with DOSbox, or DOS in general, download VDMSound, and open the MAX folder, and find 'MAXRUN'.

Right click it, and hit, 'Run with VDMS'.

Game loads up. You're good to go.

Code:
Warning: mysql_connect(): Host 'stweb2.driften.net' is blocked because of many connection errors; unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts' in /mnt/disk/www/abandonia/www/postavke.php on line 8
MySQL server is down


Link does that.

Perhaps you could FileFront it?

Thanks for the guide though.

Hmm... Alright, lemme check out other links.

http://www.the-underdogs.info/game.php?id=2441 Bottom of the page, though Empyreal was reporting slow download times from this site.

Only one I can find for now, unless you want to try and go to http://www.abandonia.com and out M.A.X. in the search engine.

Abandonia.com has the same error.

Also underdogs is unusably slow.

Please filefront it.

Eh? The best strategy game evar, and you have to run it on a DOS emulator?

Granted, I loved "Castles", but then, that was forever ago, and it doesn't hold much value to me now except for nostalgic purposes. And it would be pretty hard to top my experiences with Evil Genius, anyway.

I'll pass.
