MECHWARRIOR2 WINDOWS 95 VERSION 1.1 PATCH
Below is a list of items and concerns that this MechWarrior 2 Windows 95
Version 1.1 Patch addresses and corrects:
DirectX - We optimized our game to work with DirectX 2.0, which is
Microsoft's current released version at this time of development. As
Microsoft releases newer versions of DirectX in the future, we recommend that
you update to the most current version. This patch will not install DirectX
for you.
Joystick Throttle Problems - Some players using various joysticks with
throttle control were unable to go to full speed or reduce their speed to a
complete stop. The patch resolves this problem.
Rudder pedal fixes - Players using various rudder pedal input devices while
configured with "Torso Twist" were unable to move their 'Mech through its
normal range of motion. The patch resolves this problem.
Microsoft SideWinder 3D Pro - Along with the throttle fix, the Microsoft
SideWinder 3D Pro suffered from occasional erratic control problems. The
patch addresses this problem.
Sound Card conflict - When entering Cadet Training players received the
fatal error "WAIL32.DLL" with the IBM MWave. The patch addresses this
problem.
Sinking Mech - Occasionally when entering a Trial of Position in either the
Jade or Wolf missions, the 'Mech would begin the mission under the ground and
be unable to play the mission. This collision error has been fixed.
NetMech, Team Leader Killed - In the Free For All Trial Mission, the team
member designated as team leader had to be alive in order for the team to
achieve "mission successful". Players had no way to tell who was team
leader. Now, any team member can win the mission for the team.
"M" torso twist - While "Torso Twisting" your 'mech, the "M" key should now
center the legs to the facing direction of the torso without the previous
jerky disorienting movement.
Star formation in trials - Adjusting your star formations in the trial now
works.
