Hi People. I love that game, played it for many years. But now with new PC and new LCD display ( 800x600 is the lowest res supported ) i can't run that game. It starts up, but i get black screen ( though sounds from intro and game are still running and i can click on exit button ( i remember that much about its poss ). But i can't force that thing to open in 800x600 or even 1024x768. Can anyone propose some ideas how to make that damn thing work?
@MIMALECKIPL the game dont work on my vista, so i DL the game and it works fine. Its not ment to run on Vista (im only assuming you have vista, im just proposing a solution) i dont want to spam a video so if you want to know anymore PM me. To answer your "what have you downloaded" question, i DL the full game, and like i said it freezes sometimes, but as long as it works i dont mind having to restart a mission. Also the reason i DL was just outta frustration, but it worked.
@differentskater OK. Though i was refering to my display problems not running problems. With old screen i had no problem at all ( the old digital screen ( not LCD ))... the game was runnin' fine. But now i got new PC ( Win XP plus Radeon HD 4350 and Viewsonic VG500 LCD screen ) and the screen displays only black field, i hear sounds of game but i don't see a thing, only the "Out of range" sign... How can i fix that? Buying another screen is a no option. Any alternatives to it?
@differentskater I wrote the wrong stuff with "Buying another screen..." - It is an option but i'd rather find some solution or someone could help me fix that display problem. Lowest resolution on my screen is 800x600...
lol idk whats more funny the fact that scarboroughman 1 and junije are fighting on youtube like dumb fucks or that i've never hear of this game, i can't believe it!!!!!!
@Junije1 dude.. are you stupid, or are you a complete dickhead? i just got off on a break from school and i rarely get to get on my computer because my parents are ass-holes. so getting on the computer is kind of a big deal for me. shut the hell up.
@scarboroughman1 It seems your parents and me both share the same opinion that you need more socialization. It's a good thing they ban you from using your PC too much...
@Junije1 WHAT IS IT WITH YOU AND THIS WHOLE SOCIALIZATION THING?!?! i socialize plenty. and my parents dont ban me from using my pc, they just make me work my ass off when i am not in school. so i rarely get to be on because i am usually out hiking at the Horseshoe Canyon Ranch. i live in jasper arkansas. if anything i socialize too much. dont try to know me. because it is obvious that YOU dont socialize enough. all you do is try to insult people you dont even know. fuck you.
@happierpie aslo if you didnt already know, you can kill the Plasma bug with a rocket to its ass just like in the movie instead of using up ur airstrike on it =D
@the1stfreelancer Don't you know it, jump jets ftw! having a whole squad with marauder suits wins because you could just jump jet away from tankers etc.
i don't know if you guys actually know this, but this game is so easy to edit, you can easily open the missions folder and change the spawn rate of the bugs, from just a few, to over one hundred, like wise you can edit the type/placement of the bugs on the surface, and end up with huge hordes of them. Same with the ammo dump, you just copy it's placement several times and you have unlimited supply.
@cherrypowered Aw man, I wanted right at the start face off like 30 bugs coming out of a bug hole. =< I'm with LilPunKid they should re-make this game not the shitty fps that came out...
I've been so wanting to replay this game ,but the problem I had is on vista that even on compatibility the top and bottom parts of the screen after the intro movie can someone please help me so I can get this baby up ;-;
Even though it's kinda old it's still a cool game. Just finished it with the same team I started off with. Named all team members after my family and buddies so it took me a long time to play while I was keeping everyone alive. Haven't played it on hard though.
I have the retail copy of this, and when I install it on Vista it goes straight to the title screen, but doesn't display any of the buttons and I can't do anything except use ctrl-alt-del to exit. does anyone know of a fix for this, or failing that, where I can find a reliable download?
Beat it, tweaked some values, and eventually started working on "hard mode." I loved this game... maybe I should look into finding a copy again... hmm.
Yeah an awesome tactical game. I quite enjoyed it, it gave me another perspective than running in the first line, showing my warface and killing bugs. Quite good game, and you can you platoon and squad tactics very well.
And later the suits helped me quite a lot.
I liked the story and the maps as well, in the last map i thanked god that the game is over :)
the problem I got with this game is that all the terrain looks snow covered. It's that all the background and scenery becomes puffy white so much that from a high elevation you can barely see your troopers at times. I'm using XP operating system.
I remember this game, quite alot of fun despite the bad write up most reviews gave it.
Fairly challenging game, although I did manage to complete it on my first run where the only losses I got were that bloke you had to sacrifice to complete a mission (and he was just a green limp dick the Intel guy kept as a fluffer), and the platoon Sgt. you rescue in the 2nd mission. He decided to blow himself up with a nuke launcher instead of the plasma bug I ordered him to attack....
On a modern system (Core 2 Quad, E9450, with nvidia 9850gtx), I got it to work by using the nvidia patch (basically replaces the game exe and d3d.dll file), as well as installing the Microsoft ADPCM audio code, and setting it to win98 compatibility mode when running this. Still, the sound stutters slightly, and the menu isn't always right, but the game runs just great. It's so much fun. It didn't make a big splash in the US like the fps did a few years later.
it´s dont work on me every thatself crash... I Have patched 1.1 and nvidia but i ever have 1,0,0,1 can anyone help me it crashes every when i want to start the game
Also, if your having a problem getting the movies to run that run while the game is loading, or if it crashes your copy, make a shortcut to your .exe file and add the line "nomovies" after the target path finishes.
Now, if anyone can find out how to restore the text on the options and squad menu, I'd buy them lunch :)
I remember this game! It was originally made for the 3Dfx Voodoo 1 accelerator.
Later, they released a patch for it that allowed you to play with Nvidia video cards. (Was really smooth and fast, but the title screen didn't display right).
I remember cheating in this game by modifying some text files. I nearly had my whole team in top level armored suits by the end of the game. The sniper part rocks!
I have put the game in Windows 98/ME compatibilty mode and that starts up the game, but in the game the sound stutters and pops allot, after a while the game itself starts to stutter and lag which makes it almost unplayable...
In the video I can hear some sounds dropping out and some pops, but hardly as much as I have, what system/OS are you using?
Dam, I liked the movie so much back in the 90s. I did search for the a game a few times after the movie, but was unlucky. And here we are, a decade latter I find a game that was release a little bit less then a decade ago, exactly by the time I was looking for a game. Damnit.
Well, it's too old to start playing now, but nevertheless I am downloading, lets see what happens.
If it is branded 'abandonware' by ppls it does not mean that downloading it is legal, it is just out of market and nobody cares if it is downloaded or not...;)
ah man a next gen game with the klendathu invasion would be so so SO epic

Click Sound, video, and game controllers, and then click Next.
