Dutch Blitz over the Network?

Jelindblom

If anyone has ever played the card game Dutch Blitz, you know how much fun it can be. Does anyone know if this game has been written such that it can be played over a LAN (similar to MSHEARTS)?.

Zork Nemesis

Jim Moreno

Hello all, I just looked through every page here, and saw nothing on it. The game installs fine, but I get 'Insert CD I' error when I try to play, and CD I is in the drive! Switching CD's does nothing, nor does taking out CD I and reinserting it.

System Shock 2 won´t run, even with "-lgntforce"

Preacher

Just wanted to play this classic again but noticed it won´t even start. Installed perfectly by running Setup with the added -lgntforce parameter. Applying the patch was successful, too. But as soon as I try to run the game, even by using this -lgntforce parameter it just returns to the desktop.
