Hello!!

I just got Interstate and hyperblade. 2 of my oldest fav games I lost f**ing years ago.

But anyway... Whos up for a online battle?

Hyperblade can be played online using a program called 'Hamachi'. This little brilliant tool allows the comp to think its only a LAN.

Interstate can be too, but I am unsure if anybody plays that anymore, or if there servers are closed or whatever.

I got it installed and running with disabled sound accel.

Ive been running it in software mode because I was having too much fun playing the single player game. hehe

Also my wife has been playing it, so maybe we have a 3rd. Shes not too good, like a wimpy AI player. 😀 That could change.

Ive got to run a few test in d3d and even maybe try 3dfx.

check back later.

Moderation: I am moving this to Milliways - it has nothing to do with getting games to work under Windows.

And may I suggest you use private messages (PM) to coordinate your gaming sessions?

Turrets are the best. Just lock onto the next enemy pressing 't'. Then just rat ta tat tat.

I'm pissed off that Jade dies in I'76... But hey thats the story.

Now, about the version....

I 'aquired' the re-pack, and it came with a gold-edition patch... And I think version 1.0801 or something.

goto start-run

type in dxdiag

click on sound

slide the sound accerlator to the left for no sound acceleration

play I76

remember renable sound acceleration after play I76 for more modern games.

this works on XP and below. But not for Vista, directx is locked on Vista (POS)

Oohh ok, I'll try that.

I also got interstate 82 now. Its insane. I just got passed the mall level, and then it crashes. Great. 🙁

Is there a way of fixing that? I mean, I dont really care about single player, I just want online. But it would be interesting to see the story unfold.
