Running W2K SP4 with b 4124. Loaded DirectX 8.1 for W2k. MW4 installed normally. When I start MW4 the splash screen opens and the CD whirs for a while (copy protection) and I get: Exception: Attempt to read from address 0x00000051 at 0x00000051 Same error in full screen or OS Window and different resolutions. I installed Patch 3 for MW4. It would not install from a shared Mac Folder. But worked when I copied the patch folder into W2K folder. Any suggestions? Tom
I am not from our 3d team, so my worlds just IMHO =) I wanted to play one of the MechWarrior (3 or 4) games (because I like battle robots, mechs and all other stuff like this =), but I simply can't run it, even on my host PC. It crashes, shows me different error messages or just quits silently... So I gave up with it and playing "Shogo mobile armor division" (on my host PC)... Not exactly what I want, but very cool too =) Note, that MechWarrior and Shogo (free demo available on theirs site are not in supported games list, so there is no warranty that one of it will work under Parallels.
The link for supported games is: http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/3d/ Thanks for the tip, wonder
After a tip here on WINE, I found that a Linux user is getting the same exception. Sounds like a WINE problem. Maybe the next version. Sigh
