MechWarrior is a full game and the full game will be released for free. It's not a mod.

Requirements should be similar to those for Descent 3. I'm guessing anything PIII 500MHz or higher would run it just fine. So basically anything this decade should work for you.  :)

I, for one, hope this is much, much more than a reconnaissance mission.

Cool! My kids will love that. the kid's machine is not too bad with D3, a little stuttery under heavy load due to onboard video.

Here's my Windows 7 screencapture-

I’m unable to find any downloads for Mechwarrior 4 but I did see that Mechwarrior Living Legends Beta was just released.

Oh, thanks for reminding me to restart that download! I'll find the link and post it... I had to go looking for one that worked. It's a torrent.

Gee, I think this thread has been derailed.
* Zantor  pushes the thread back on track.

I could use a little help getting the text right for this. I think I still have the PSD floating around; it's a game screen shot with text on a layer added to it.

Make it stand out properly and look right. I was told not to do text straight on a textured background, but to do something to make it stand out. I use Photoshop 7.

Try outlining the text with a contrasting border, dark gray or off white.

Shadow effects can work as well.

Indeed.  I'm guessing that shadow effects may look the best.

Look at the logo for the Blue Christmas theme, I did that in the Gimp. Some texture for "Planet Descent", then Xach-Effect to give the chiseled look. Then shadow.

Edit: here you go:

This isn't a full game. It requires Crysis.exe to run. It's a mod for Crysis.
