OK, how, and for how long? I can load TTO and TTD on XP, and often load/start a game, but very shortly afterwards, it crashes.

Yeah, I can do so as well, but it crashes with some kind of critical error, such as memory errors or something... it never works longer then a minute...

oh c'mon, please show us some kindness, and tell how you've done it.

BTW OT: you should add some anti-aliasing in your avatar.

lol combat... I don't think it's gonna help :roll: You're just making me think this is a hoax even more... (I just happen to know I am one of them guys that pissed you off :? )

We didn't try to bully you or anything... We we're just JOKING

That's

J - O - K - I - N - G

I mean... If we insulted your family, hit you in the face, spit all over you, burned down your house: THAT would be something to be pissed off about... You should just laugh back at the joke... If we were doing the same joke, but we would replace all combat with spiff I would be 100% sure you would join us in the joke and i'm 100% sure spiff would be able to laugh about it as well

I really think a 10 year old could act more mature than you seem to be able to at this moment... :? :? :?

I believe that Combat didn't get it working and is trying to p*** everyone off by what he's doing now. So please, just act mature and tell us. We said please many times already. :roll:

Well, I tried that NOLFB.COM utility Combat pointed us to, but it didn't help - TT[O|D] still crashed shortly after loading, with the same old error.
