Anyone remember this? Tau Ceti was an awesome game for its time and I used to love playing it on my trusty old ZX 128k speccy
 . I would love to be able to get my hands on this one again...There was also another game I used to play long ago on my Amiga 500 but sadly I cannot remember the name. It was one of the 1st 3d games out on the amiga, I think I used to play it about the same time that Space Hulk was out ( another 3d game). The game was like a cross between a 3d shooter/adventuer game, in which you enter an abandoned underground base in some sort of power suit and solve puzzles etc. You are constantly being attacked by the base automatic defences which are robots. I remember there used to be some sort of wheel type robots, and that you could sometimes collect power cells from the dead robots.. can anyone remember this game? I know that I am a bit OT with this but I am unsure which forum this ought to go into. But I DL'd Space Crusade from another site (as it is not on Abandonia so may be worth getting on here also, it is abandonware..) but I cannopt get my units to use their ranged attacks. Does anybody out there have this game and have the same issues?

Cool, found it! Now all I need to do is get the software to make it work on my PC . Any ideas where I can find it?

Space Crusade... ah, yes. Remember it.
Well, the problem you have is typical when you are running the game on a system too fast for it. Try with DosBox on low CPU cycles (1500 and lower) or on a very slow PC computer. I'm talking 30 Mhz.
