Oh man, thanks! :amused: I've just started playing MW1 and have been experiencing a lot of problems. I was starting to worry I'd never be able to play it.

Does anyone else have display problems with the crew page, or crashes when hiring more crew? And if you do, do you know how to fix it?

If I remember right, the game archive on the site has been replaced a while ago with one that doesn't suffer from the crash/garble on the crew screen. Download the current one and see if you get the crash with it as well.

What do you mean by "spotty sound", exactly? Mechwarrior doesn't offer much in the way of sound. The four MIDI tunes mentioned above and some PC-Speaker SFX during combat are all there is.

Aha! I fixed the errors with the crew status page, and the error with the crew recruitment at the bar! :nuts: Turns out the problem was created when the game was cracked and the copy protection eliminated. I downloaded Mechwarrior from our good friend The Underdogs and that copy worked perfectly without any errors.

We have an unofficial manual though with the copy protection codes on Abandonia, so it's just an inconvenience to type the codes in. But at least the game actually works. I suppose I probably should upload the working version.

You need to target them manuually. That's how it works.
