I beat the campaign last night and tomorrow night I will hopefully play Pirate's Moon for the first time. I was never able to get past the glitch where you fire jump jets and faceplant every time. I believe the first mission had a large trench you need to get across so I could never play it.

I believe the first mission had a large trench you need to get across so I could never play it. I hear that glitch pretty much killed the game. I started the PM campaign last year and I'm on the 3rd mission. Maybe I will continue soon. If running the game with my frames limited fixes this JJ glitch you have, I will let you guys know.

that wasn't a glitch, it was a skill difficulty. You have to find just the right spot to jump from, which is basically right where the light is at the bridge. If you can't make the jump in the dark you're a NOOB!

Using JJs in any mission and anywhere on the map will cause you to nose dive. I've tried it many times in different situations. The only place I was able to make them work correctly is 'after' stepping off the edge of the cliff. Timing was critical since you're in free fall before it works and if you hesitate too long you go down to the bottom. But as far as JJs in general, you do a nose dive using them normally in missions. I think Stoney is correct because I don't have my frame rates capped at 30 either.

It's a physics issue, just use some Frame limiter, its working fine for me.

Yea I've had the JJ issue since day 1, like when it came out. 5 or so years ago I tried the game with patches and limited frames and still had the issue so that's why I've never actually been able to play the game. I'll probably try tonight if I'm not editing MW3 videos. For what it's worth I played through the whole MW3 campaign now at 60fps.
Has anybody tried the dgvoodoo plugin with Mechwarrior 2?

I never played MechWarrior 2. Back in the day I had the choice of a N64 or PS1. The PS1 had Mega Man and MechWarrior 2, but the Nintendo games won me over. I missed out on it. I held onto a MechWarrior 2 poster from Electronic Gaming Monthly forever. I need to buy that back issue and frame that poster.

Mechwarrior 2 was the second PC game I ever played, man so many good times. I actually replayed the Titanium Edition last year but didn't record it as I did it on my 98 box. I'm actually going to see if I can get it running without MechVM.
Edit: This appears that it'll be a hard task to complete but I'm determined to play in 4k lol.

I'm sure my friends are getting tired of me pumping MW3 videos daily.

Nice job man. Nice to see the weapons mod being played with. Makes me think of some things to improve upon for the next version. Just one minor complaint..... Playing music from 'Mech 4 Vengeance on a splash of 'Mech3 to me is like blasphemy

I did that on purpose to see if I'd get any hate on Youtube. A way to see if any real Mech fans watched the whole video or not haha. I'm surprised there's no comment of the Mech 2 remix music in the background hehe.
Quick cut in the beginning of that is bad, but when kids come running in I don't want to restart a mission so I cut it out. I love the new pulse laser setup but damn the heat build up is real. I had to redo the way I played to accommodate my use of pulse lasers.
I've been fiddling with Pirate's Moon the past 3 hours but can't seem to get it to work. MW3 was an easy 5 minutes job. Not real sure why PM isn't working.
Edit: Just got it working, but none of the mods are there.

Haven't done (released) any modding for Pirate's Moon yet. It's an entirely separate game from 'Mech3 so the 'Mech3 mods don't migrate to it. I do have a mod in the works for it though.
I like 'Mech2 music, hence to comments.
