Enjay Posted May 3, 2010 MTX? MTX is the central point of distribution for the launch of the FREE Mechwarrior release. The MTX application boasts some of the following features: * Bootstrap Installations * Incremental Delta Auto-Patching * Torrent or HTTP Downloading from an exclusive MekTek Tracker * Custom Web Browser * News Updates from MekTek and Partners * Online Help * Community Chat Lobbies * Network Diagnostic Tool Hmmm... 0 Share this post Link to post
wildweasel Posted May 3, 2010 And, predictably for Steam-knockoff-type software, it is utter trash. So far I've had MTX refuse to download anything and even crashed and froze twice on me. The workaround is to take its .torrent files and just download them using another torrent program, then transplant them into MTX's folder and then get on with the installation. ...Of course, the person that told me this has yet to actually be able to play the game. Why exactly couldn't MekTek just post the ISO files somewhere? 0 Share this post Link to post
DuckReconMajor Posted May 4, 2010 I couldn't find the .mtx file after I installed the MTX software. I thought I'd finally found it on Fileplanet but it turned out just to be the game itself. Yay me! 0 Share this post Link to post

Snarboo Posted May 4, 2010 I'm willing to wait in line 8 minutes at Vileplanet to get the full 1.5 GB release. Why they didn't have both options available from the very beginning is beyond me. 0 Share this post Link to post

I dont' know what they'll do to fix it, tho. 0 Share this post Link to post
Snarboo Posted May 4, 2010 I tried installing MTX, and as soon as I tried to run the program it crashed. Not only did it crash, oh no, it launched the program four separate times, which brought my computer to its knees. Not even Crysis slowed my computer down that badly. Until they release a standalone version or bundle Mechwarrior 4 with MTX, I'd say don't bother. 0 Share this post Link to post
SyntherAugustus Posted May 4, 2010 If you download the fileplanet link you can play within the zipfile. If you want to play online, you can download said file and follow this http://www.mektek.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=156383 Frustrating yeah. 0 Share this post Link to post
