Aramgetron is the largest online-multiplayer Light Cycle game currently available. YOu can play one player against the computer, but the main focus of the game is for you to play online against others. I highly recommend it.

Surprisingly enough it is available for linux as well I was playing that a couple of times. I haven't tried online with it. Unless I did and never noticed befoer while on my ubuntu partions over here. It's the largest one for the light cycle game only.

Digit try Ubuntu linux or the ultimate edition of Linux. I naver had a problem with it on my clone machines or on my Dell or ibm machines over here. Could be that there are some hardware compatabilities issued with the what they had on the CD and what t was trying to run on. I know I had some but were easily fixed by debugging it on a individual problem. And worked flawless afterwards.

I try to run knoppix live from the CD and my machine freezes white it's booting. I wonder why? I can run SL on my xbox, but I really don't have any apps for it other than what little it came with.

Are you confined to just that one map, or are there others? The standard map is just a large square area of varying sizes. However, many servers host many different variations of this map. It is nothing like TRON 2.0 though.

I actually like this better than tron 2.0. The PC version keeps freezing up. It does it all the damn time. Locks up my whole system. The xbox version has small, claustrophobic maps.

If that doesn't fix it, it needs to be reinstalled because it may not be seeing the correct video card or it may be corrupted somehow, such as the CD has been corrupted, or whatnot. Even a simple defrag will allow programs to work if they're all fragged up. I've seen 98% of the errors you can get on the game, so if you have the need to throw disks someday, either I or someone else can make the problem go away.

Well, my gaming and multimedia machine upstairs isn't connected to the internet. There is no firewall. No antivirus software either. That's the machine that I use for playing tron 2.0.

That's probably true of xp, but 98 is a very small windows version. It's one of the reasons I still use it. A backup of my C: drive using msbackup (not including user-installed apps) is easily small enough to fit on a single CD-ROM.

We have a separate machine downstairs that we use for Internet access. I haven't done any gaming online in a very long time. I mostly use my computer for running MAME. I prefer my softmodded xboxes for emulation of game consoles, but the PC just does a better job for MAME. My PC is really only used for MAME, creating programs, making MP3s, burning CDs, etc.

It's great to have a machine that is dedicated to gaming and multimedia only. No need to worry about viruses, connections, patches, bullying tactics by MS, cookies, popups, etc.

I had found one nice program that really does an excellent job in finding files that can be removed and other unwanted files off of the hard drive. I've seen this application take care of over 11 gigs of stuff to get removed from windows without damaging the rest of the stuff. http://www.stevengould.org/index.php?Itemid=69&id=15&option=com_content&task=view Jademz Wrote:Haven't tried it, maybe soon. digit Wrote:I actually like this better than tron 2.0.
