I have it installed Kurai and I have all the maps and mechs but ever sense Mektek switch servers I could never connect to them.

Oh? OH you mean like when you click on MekTek it won't connect?

[Zaius Ex]

Have you tried using GameRanger?

That is correct.

I doesn't even want to run, at least not correctly.

Try renaming the MW4 folder to just MWMercs. I was having an issue with it also and that's what a unit member told me to do to fix it. Apparently GameRanger throws an error if the exe is in a folder with a long name.

Also: I dub thee, the Sovereign God of Fox-Girls

I will try that out.

Can it be The Sovereign God of Fox and Shark girls?

You have to shorten the path name to MW4 Mercs. Like shorten the mektek folder to mektek. I'll use my example path.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\mektek\MercenariesMektek\MW4Mercs.exe"

as for the actual game itself, you just click on "Connect" you can't change servers anymore unless you go to regit.

I hate messing with folder names and the like. But I will try it any way.

Kurai is much better at explaining it.

Right-on.

[Ookami14]

Oh Zaius, the only reason I can is because I had to do BOTH things in order to play on game ranger, and to change to the Kurita server on Mektek.

[Zaius Ex]

Apparently I had to as well. Just noticed my main folder is just mektek also. /memoryfail.

[Ookami14]

Lol. Its allright, I think everyone has to do it, but they just did it so long ago they forgot.

So, picking up the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog, and figured id ask before I bought. Anyone else have one, or seen it cheaper anywhere else? These are the cheapest ones Ive seen so far, and free shipping too.

B&H Photos $424

Buy.com $429

[Coralld]

Did you try looking on New Egg? I'm don't know if they would have it but if they did I am sure they would have it cheaper.

[firefox117]

Yeah, I should of said that. Looked on tiger direct, new egg, amazon and a few other sites. Tiger direct was only $399, with like a $60 shipping fee, same as amazon. Ive looked at a lot of sites, but those two seem the cheapest.

Also, wondering if anyone here has rudder pedals, and if so, what kind? Looking at a few different ones now, but not sure.

[Coralld]

Damn, I don't know, it looks like those two are your best bet right now, but I would hold off on buying them.

[firefox117]

Well Im not getting it just for MW:O. About half my games are combat flight sims, and I now mainly play DCS: A-10. But I did email thrustmaster already, and asked if it would work with MW:O, and as close as they could say, it would work. Plus ive been wanting to get it for like the last year now, just finally breaking down and getting it.

Hey, pg 62
