Let us learn from the decimation of the Gray Death Legion under Lyran contract. The lack of care Steiner displayed for her own troops does not bode well for mercenaries under her command. The escalating FedCom Civil War has cost us greatly these last few years. I need not remind you the GDL has paid a toll far higher than most. It is important in these trying times that we keep our heads and remember our roots.
Loyalty is coin hard to recover once spent. We have pledged our support for Archon Princess Katrina Steiner, the lawful ruler of the Lyran Alliance, and will continue to see that pledge through to the end of this war.
The web server is back online and we have a new version of MTX available. The new version brings with it an offline mode, allowing you to install games and updates when the web servers are down.
A critical flaw in our design pattern has been addressed where MTX would fail when our servers went down. There are risks involved with installing and updating in offline mode as the client can't verify the files to make sure they haven't become corrupted, but it does give you the option if you wish to install when the web server is unavailable.
If the files are corrupted, you will have to re-download and reinstall in order to connect to servers running the correct version. We've also removed the skin from MTX in this version. At some point we will allow for custom skins so you will have the ability to customize MTX's appearance.
The public outcry of the application being laggy has been addressed and the result is a much more snappy windows form application. We strongly recommend that you install the current public beta version 1. This version is not dependent on our website and should function much better under heavy traffic. Some people have expressed questions and concerns about using MTX to install the game. The main reason we are using MTX to deliver this free distribution of Mechwarrior: Mercenaries is to be able to serve the many updates we have planned in the near future.
Patching and updating Mercs without an easy method of distribution to the amount of people who will need the patches and updates, will become a much larger problem than simply being patient with us and MTX while we work out the bugs. The community will fragment with all the different versions that will be out there once we start releasing updates without a system in place to deliver the updates to everyone playing the free release.
We are aware of hardware issues and long standing bugs with Mechwarrior4 which we plan to address in the future. Also worth noting that we are planning to release more Mechwarrior titles via MTX in the future. We realize MTX caused grief for many folk and we apologize. We hope our , guests that crashed our server this weekend will return and not be too disgruntled.
Next you will need to install the patch files to patch the game to Release Now navigate to your install folder for the game, it should be in this file path, 'C:Program Files x86 Mechwarrior Mercenaries - Mektek Mekpak'. You have completed step three, you have now patched the game to the final version of the free release from MekTek. Next you will need to navigate to the MW4Mercs.
Right click on the MW4Mercs. Now go to the Desktop Shortcut File, right click on it and select Properties. Go to the Short Cut Tab and find the line titled Target. You can now configure the graphics setting for the game that will be loaded every time you start the game. This forces the game to run in 32 bit. Older games were made before 64 bit came out and will not run properly on a 64 bit system unless you force the game to run in 32 bit.
Some older games will freeze or crash when starting in full screen. Running the game in windowed mode can fix this issue. Once the game starts in a window you should be able to switch to full screen by clicking the square full screen icon in the banner bar.
This will start the game in the desired screen resolution. Back in the day when this game was made, allot of people still used CRT monitors with screen resolutions that had a max resolution of x This game may have issues with newer monitors and graphics cards that run higher resolutions by default.
Other resolutions that this game was designed to run in were x, x, x, and x This forces windows to emulate OpenGL architecture when running this game. Allot of Older games used OpenGL and it is required to run. Back when this game was made a lot of systems had a max refresh rate of 60 FPS. Most computers now will run at a minimum of 60 FPS and go much higher.
This can cause weird anomalies in this game such as mechs rotating super-fast in the mech lab or the mouse cursor will leave pixel remnants of itself whenever you move it across the screen.
If you are having issues with the games FPS not synchronizing with your system, you can lock the games FPS to 60 with this command. This games start up videos use older formats that do not seem to work with newer systems, causing the game to crash at start up.
Use this command to prevent the videos from running. There seems to be some kind of a driver conflict with the joystick when running this game on newer systems like windows 10 causing the game to crash at startup. Use this command to disable the joystick functionality in the game.
This command will prevent the Auto Configuration Utility from running when the game starts, this is helpful if the Auto Configuration Utility runs every time you start the game. If you're looking for a cheat or a trainer for the Mechwarrior 4 games you can use Cheat Engine, there are premade cheat tables you can download on Fearless Cheat Engine.
