Additional Comments

If alt-tabbing would work, I would rate the game Gold! I've read the test data from Nándor and he says that the game crashes when changing map in Skirmish. I had the same problem, but I got a little fix. If you start the game in a console, the game won't crash when changing maps! No idea why, but it works! Multiplayer was tested with two computers on the same LAN. I think the game works fine with a P2P VPN too. That way you can play on different LAN's with a lot of old games that use DirectPlay. I've installed from both disks and have a no-cd crack.
