Is there a patch anywhere in the wther that will enable me to play Viper Racing without the CD? I realy want to head-to-head with my buddy, but only have one retail version between us...... Thanks!
Just type "-nocanary" at the end of your desktop shortcut command line, make sure you leave a space and don't use the quotes!! > Is there a patch anywhere in the wther that will enable me to play Viper Racing > without the CD?

Well, in this case the patch can be found in any retail stores around your town. Go buy a second copy if you love this game that much, so you can install it on another PC. Or else your hurting the sales at MGI, and not helping them in the making of future titles that you would enjoy <g>. -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard/Nas-Frank> -- NROS Nascar sanctioned Guide http://www.nros.com/ -- May the Downforce be with you...

Go to the MS-DOS Prompt and type the path to the Viper Racing executable, and then add at the end " -nocanary". Works all the time for me. >Is there a patch anywhere in the wther that will enable me to play Viper Racing >without the CD?

Thanks all who responded -- and to those who bashed me for not buying another copy -- I'm not willing to plunk down another $30 unless I am sure the online/networked play is good enough to keep our interest.

It sure is man. Dan Belcher and I race eachother in Viper all the time and we never have any problems. And Demolition Derby is the greatest. HEHEHE It is definately woth the purchase of another copy of Viper Racing.

If the friend doesn't have a computer, or doesn't have one FAST enough to run the program, is MGI *really* losing a sale? If running the game on a network is the only time he plays it, then is any harm really done? Eldred __ Put your message in a modem, and throw it in the ***-sea... remove SPAM-OFF to reply.

If you're going to get another copy go to http://www.outpost.com. They have it for only $10 + free overnight s&h. I wish I had known about that when bought my copy. :) > Thanks all who responded -- and to those who bashed me for not buying another > copy -- I'm not willing to plunk down another $30 unless I am sure the > online/networked play is good enough to keep our interest. -- -----------------------------------+---------------------------------- ICQ #: 18197225 | http://members.xoom.com/morganv/ alt.games.quake2 FAQ: -------------+---------------------------------- http://members.xoom.com/morganv/files/ALT.GAMES.QUAKE2_FAQ.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------
