Well i have an 233 MMX procesor and i hate remakes.
While some of them are beter than the original they usualy have stupid requirements.
sometimes i can't understand where all that power goes and why my PC witch could run "INCOMING" can't run some third water remake of "Tetris" :ranting:
Its understandable when the game has superb Audio/Video.
But mostly they just mipmap the picsel's amd Quadriple the Min requirements.
Of course i wish luck to the remakers of old games but they should look how the game is runing on slower PS's

Has anybody ever come across the bug where you get a few hundred million dollars?

If you have a great negative amount of money, the - (the hyphen) won't fit and voila: -20317532 will turn into 20317532 You can do this by buying and selling your studio.

I also remeber, when I was once in the library, the man in glasses turned green and I could see his snake tongue. Does anyone know how to make him like that?

He does that almost every time I click on him while reviewing my tape library. Maybe it's just random?

Re: my earlier post, the bug only seems to happen with the music video show; "Talk for Two" went into the lineup without crashing (and earned me a record-setting .85mil viewers, thereby saving my ad contracts!).

After beating the game in hard difficulty and owning both satellites with billions of cash in the end, I want to give out some tips:

Dosbox seems to crash MadTV more often when the speed is very high. I accidentally found out that with only 5000 cycles (instead of 15000 I use to run Dosbox normally) it stopped crashing.

Self-made TV-shows are mostly buggy, those with block-size of 0 (hours) are the ones that cause sudden crashes. For now ignore the shows with 0 block-time as they can't be aired on TV.

Other than that no spoilers, but good luck in searching the mechanics of MadTV. :=)

I just wanted to say that I highly approve of this marvelous addition. A true underdog, this one k:

For all those looking to have a very nice and very clean cheat for this game, I found a trainer for it. It's an old DOS trainer (only 232 byes long!!!!), which I found at a german cheat website, couldn't remember where, but spent half an hour translating websites :P

You can get it here: http://rapidshare.de/files/2106580/MADTVTRN.ZIP.html

You NEED DOSBOX to run it. Open DosBox, type MADTVTRN.COM to get it a TSR and then type MTV toload the game.

ONce loaded, the money will never go lower than 9.999.999 millons.
Enjoy!, and thanks to Phoenix/TPC for making it!

Edit: So small can be untrusty, so, I started to search again for it and found it. Got it from here:

This is my alltime favorite. Thank you for the addition k:

I love to play mad tv. But Sadly a bug made my progress worthless.
I´m playing MTV in Dosbox and its day 17. at 1700, after visiting Mr. Raffer, Im trying to go to the news room but when i´m in there, the gme freezes.
Even when i´m waiting til the next day.

´Can anyone help me with this ?

[Bluntman]

Erm ... seems like you have to marry Betty within 16 days ... :whistle:

Nope, this is a well known problem for many fans. Sometimes it crashes after 10 days, sometimes after 30 days. No one has got any solutions on this yet. Maybe you should install the latest version of DOSBox (0.63)

Good luck!

Did you already see the bug, that you can "buy phantom" movies at the film shop?
Go to the Corner in the lower right, there are No Name Movies.
Sell these to the Film Shop Customer. You have to buy one movie for every sold "phantom" movie. But you can make big plus with that.
