You bring a Shadowcat. I bring a Mauler.
You bring a Novacat. I bring an Atlas with a Longtom.
Ill bring Atlas W with an exiting configuration ;)

I think you're thinking of IPX/SPX, as far as I can remember, IPX/SPX and TCP/IP have always been separate, with Vista and 7 dropping IPX/SPX in favour of TCP/IP

When i get home tonight ill see if i can get a copy of MC 1 and then see if i can fandangle it to run on my VM with XP.

Honestly though folks if you're going to play some old school games best to just get a virtual machine set up with windows 98 on it for things like MC1 and MW2. XP can also run some of the older stuff.

Never ever use the Atlas W or J. It has as much or maybe less armor then a Jagermech A

Runs fine in native Windows 7 if you install using compatibility mode (xp or 98) all works except for the greyed out "Network" option.  Played the 1st mission - shat all over that kit fox (and salvaged)

Tried installing to "Windows XP Mode" under windows 7 (the provided virtual machine), get an error along the lines of "unable to continue running executable" whenever I try and run it,

Anyone tried using vm-ware etc?

Might have to try installing xp native to one of my older machines just for this!

If you take this seriously, you're some kind of mouth-breathing fappwit that shouldn't have survived infancy.

I'll have to try installing again in compatibility mode.  I could only get MC2 to work a few months ago when I tried, and from what I read MC2 is an inferior game to MC1. 

MC2 single player was a joke - aggro the whole map with a Razorback and then run away while the rest of your units peeled off the Razorback.  I tried not to do it that way as much as possible, but knowing that the AI was that retarded put me off.

7 64bit etc blah and blah.

It seems that the Network button is grayed out, because a file is missing in the MCG installation directory: Network.fst ...

The Bears have mechcommander gold multiplayer working.  You need a game service called game ranger, but we have confirmed this is working and have had a few games.  SOO AMAZING!

SO, who is up for some 1999 mech strategy action?!

Have a guide for how to get this to work?
