  1. lol...oh boy, this thread is going south... I don't care who I play...quitters, whiners, winners, good players, empire, rebels, bad players, new, old...any race, color, creed, species, whatever...I just want to play! Can't play this week as I am out of town, but will be back next week looking for a game. Already heard from Rush actually, and am hoping to get a game up with him soon. Cromwell, I see you logged into the Hamachi networks all the time, but can't seem to catch you in one. I look forward to hooking up with you for a game too if you are up for it sometime! Anybody else out there who is up for a game, drop me a private message and we can work it out. Peace. --D
  2. Cool, lets play! Drop me a PM if you want to get a game together...
  3. Just want to chime in, I tried these instructions above last night on Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) installation, and success! I got it to work, and played about 700+ days worth of game without any issue. A few notes from my experience: - When trying to copy the files from disc per step 1, it had problems copying a few of the files in the "MData" directory (complained it was unable to copy or "Read" the file during the copy operation)...probably a problem with the disc? I mention it, only because I did a search and noticed some others had similar issues. My solution? I had an .iso copy of the disc, and was able to mount that using Virtual Clone drive and copy the files from the mounted image. - Follow the instructions to the letter! First mis-step I made, during step #1, is I actually copied the actual "folder" (named "REBELLION") along with the contents of said folder to "Star Wars Rebellion" (so I had C:\Program Files (x86)\LucasArts\Star Wars Rebellion\REBELLION\" as a path)...not good. That throws off the path and it crashed badly. You want the content of the folder, NOT the folder itself. - At first, I got thrown some non-descript erros that had path references in it, then it would go to the startup/game options screen, but nothing worked (except "exit"). The paths in the odd error messages were a clue, and my problem was that when setting up the folder in Step #1, I had put "Lucas Arts" instead of "LucasArts" (2 words instead of 1). Fixed that, and the game started and ran flawlessly. - You do need to sit through the droid speech at the beginning. No way around that. I vaguely remember having to do that in XP as well. - One thing of interesting note...and it might be my imagination...you seem to have to be a little more "exact" when clicking on planet when idicating the target of a mission or the destination for a manufactuing facility output. It wasn't too bad, but it definitely seemed like the actual area you had to "click" in was a bit more constrained. I am a UI designer/developer, so I am guessing it might be due to the way the newer version of windows manages the underlying control used for the visual objects? In any case, had no effect on playability at all, it is still a plenty large target area, and automatic once I realized that I had to be a bit more centered with the cursor. Could also be a factor of me using the touch pad of my notebook instead of a mouse. - And since we are on the theme of selection oddities...it was a bit quirky when selecting personnel for missions. Holding down "select" and clicking personnel had the behavior I would expect, but holding down "ctrl" and clicking was hit or miss...sometimes it worked, sometimes it acted like I didn't have "ctrl" held down. Not always though, but I noticed it. Otherwise, I played two hours last night complete with battles (simulated and not), no issues, no crashing on my Windows 7 64bit notebook. All good! Would love to get in a game with a real person...drop me a message if you are interested.
  4. I am still trying to get a game going...if anyone is interested in one, get in touch with me! Send me a message... I am on tonight...drop me a note if you want to get one going! --Dave
  5. Try to join to the network mastersofrebellion the password is starwarsrebellion i cant join to swrebellion12 the room is full. Im from spain so we use the gmt +1. I use to be conected the evenings and nights. See you Hey Cromwell - tried to join, it rejected the password... I am trying desperately to pull together a game!
  6. Hey Cromwell - Hope to hook up with you for a game... Most of the networks I tried to join are "full", but I finally did get into swrebellion12. Let me know when you are usually around, and what networks you are in, and I will try to hunt you down... Thanks, Dave UPDATE: Actually, was able to get in to Rebellion101 and see you there. Maybe we can get one going sometime...
  7. Got your message, but tried to respond via email and it bounced so I sent you a PM...drop me a note, I am up for playing. Same goes to anyone out there interested in a game, message me...I am looking to get into a game with someone!
  8. Hey everybody...my name is Dave, and I have been up here a couple of times over the years as a lurker. Recently signed up because I would really like to connect with someone to play. I started playing Rebellion when it first came out. It is still one of my favorite games. I haven't played it in at least 3 years, but would love to dust it off and give it a go again. I mean it when I say "it is one of my favorites"...not just a nostalgia thing either...I think I would play it every day if I could find opponents. If anyone is up for a game, please post here or PM me...I am (ok, was) a decent player. I would call myself at the "low end of advanced"...maybe not good enough to make the all-star rebellion team, but definitely good enough to get a fair amount of votes and to at least provide challenge to the best. I am also laid back enough though that if you are a novice at the game, and the game ends up getting one sided, I would happily go hang out in the rim systems and let you play your way back into the game so you can work on tactics, strategy, etc...I just like to play folks, happy to have a tough opponent or a less experienced one, and will make the best of either. So, drop me a note people...lets get a game going!
  9. This is one of the more recent threads on here, so I am going to shamlessly hi-jack it... If you (or anyone) is interested in playing, drop me a note in this thread or a private message. I use to play a lot back in the day, and am itching to get in a multi-player game. I am usually up late eastern time... --D
  10. Hello, I use to play rebellion all the time back in the day, and would love to give it a go again...anybody out there up for a game? I am available almost any night late (after 10:00pm EST). Drop me a message if you are up for hooking up. I tried the Hamachi network posted in some other threads, but bad password? Hope someone out there is still up for playing... --D
