Works without the dreaded rainbow colours on my W7 machine after setting compatibility of mageslay.exe to Windows 98/ ME and temporarily killing explorer with a .bat file:

REM -[ScriptName].bat
taskkill /F /IM Explorer.exe
mageslay.exe
start explorer.exe
:bro:

Edit: Apparently I also have to lower the desktop resolution to 800x600 and use 16bit colours.
Wasn't necessary in my case.

BTW: Any way to get MS/TNP run in d3d mode?
It looks nice in SW but colored lighting would be a plus.

The rods were painful due to the deadly fumes
Rad shield.

The best part was if you did it wrong you had a nice mushroom smoke ending.
:lol:
Really? I never tried that.

Didn't tried plasma cannon, it could be interesting :lol:.
It's certainly spectacular.

The bug you mentioned never happened in my game. Thankfully.
It happens nearly every time in mine.
:x

:Legendurry:
I've only seen this game because my GF was given it as a gift.
:lol:
She ragequit about 15' in out of sheer amount of consolefaggotry in game.
:hero:

I will certainly look into this when I'm in the mood to replay Mageslayer or play TNP (I have only played the demo).
I actually bought original TNP when it was relatively new.

Never really got into MS, due to it forcing stupid perspective (no way to set overhead view to follow your rotation, unlike TNP) and seeming much less complex and diverse.

TNP is pretty fun shooter. Has aged well visually too - straight top-down perspective lets you use sprites without any of the problems usually associated with the use of sprites in games.

Wow, their eyes on higher resolution looks weird, especially Rosalind.
Also- Flece remind me Demi Moore.

Yeah, some skirmish maps are nice, like escorting some famous hooker for our boys. Funny that one was better than escort doctor mission for vanila.

My first contact with 7,62 High Calibre + Blue Sun Mod 2.0 (good riddance with finding working version without Decoder.exe error). Should play vanillia but those fixes were so temting...
Found few pistols, vest, some under-vest and backpack. Still 0 shots.

I know students are useless meatbags but when IT students get guns - you know you're in REAL shithole.

Played Real Guns Hardcore for pure lulz, but this version don't have .44 Magnum and 1886 T-800's shotgun with akimbo compared to my last try about 2-3 years ago. So shit is even shitter. Welp.

I remember I was actually a bit freaked out by that part. Those toys on the ground made me think these children were abandoned by parents who actually loved them and left them grow wild in the, well, wild.

Heck, the whole U8 is freaky as hell. I remember in the dungeon where you can find Slayer, there is a room with a hostile, presumably insane city guard living there, and there was a rotten corpse on his bed. The corpses man, the game is littered with them, even in the city there are dead bodies here and there. U8 was a horror game on its own right.

Does anyone else think Avatar from U8 looks a lot like Dirk from Dragon's Lair? Red shirt with gold embroidering. Little brown knapsack strewn to his back. Awkwardly controlled. Dies a lot.

The only real difference is that Dirk has short black hair, while the Avatar is a blondie with shoulder-long hair.

All U8 would have needed was for Lady Mordea to dress up like Daphne, and the comparison would be golden.
