The intro to Star Wars - Galactic Battlegrounds for the PC. Noted for being extremely similar to Age of Empires II - Age of Kings (both games were built using the same engine).
i appreciate that you took notice. I can only blame gameranger because it was the only thing that could have caused it at that point. Its always possible a backround script somewhere on my pc caused the virus. As for my firewall i had AVG 8. Its never failed me like this before soo...
lol, IG zones shut down for star wars like 3 years ago. It WAS the main source of attention, they had plenty of players, tournements, contests, etc. but now, the games pretty much lost its community and fanbase. the zone whas replaced by a website called voobly, but guess what? NOBODY PLAYS ON VOOBLY. I mean 0 people practically. If anyone wants to play multiplayer, they should use gameranger. It acually works pretty well, its better than voobly or Xfire
I know this is a little late, but I'm actually having the same problems. Are you playing on a small screen? Because the ratio that fits it has less colors than normal, so that might have something to do with it. As for the confusing faction colors, I would recommend going to the "Options" menu, and turning on "Friend or Foe colors", so that all factions are color-coded (player is blue, allies are yellow, neutrals are gray, and enemies are red).
lol here's one for ya, a friend of mine about a week ago tried gameranger and got the exact same virus i got. apparently the virus was a registry edit that removed the ability to run an .EXE program.
second of all, i apologize for the virus :P but man, there are hundreds of people who use gameranger, never heard of it giving them a crippling virus, i dunno what went wrong with yours :( i assume you're using firewall and all that stuff? anyway, i don't see how GAMERANGER caused a crippling virus, but i assure you, more goes on at gameranger nowdays than voobly (at least starwars related)
@TheWomacker you can donwload a fixer for color on w7. It fixes the .exe of every old game that has color problems. Age 2, Starcraft1, and so on. I can send to you e-mail, if you want.
lol, ok first of all, even if there's 10 people "24-7" do those people play STAR WARS? I'm well aware that people play other games on voobly, but i havn't seen much of star wars (or at LEAST not 24-7)
La fracción de video del 0:05 donde pasan los tie fighter de fondo ¿En que película pasa o es una escena eliminada? ya que he visto todas las películas pero en ninguna he visto ésta escena.
tengo entendido que es un montaje del episodio 4, se supone que en el fondo estaría Darth Vader, cosa extraña porque pudieron fácilmente usar otras escenas de combate o de ejércitos
Empire at War: I'm the best RTS Star Wars got
Galactic Battlegrounds: Hold my Nova Crystals.

ES DE LA PELICULA ORIGINAL , ESA ECENA DESAPARECIO EN LAS REMASTERIZACIONES
its like saying Age of Empires 3 is better than the first one.
@WafflezDay I'm thinking about re-installing it. Send me a message if you wanna play online.
there are mods , try that
and i just went on voobly AGAIN, and AGAIN, there were 0 players online... am i missing something?... 10 people online 24-7... rubbish...
people still play jedi fest and bh fest on gameranger ^.^
certainly not as many players though... 8P
the games are nothing alike in anyway
where can I get that?
