M1 Tank Platoon 2
I just found my old copy of M1TP2 and installed it.
It runs fine. Only one problem: I can't quit the program. There is no exit button and hitting ESC or CTRL + Q does not work. Any ideas guys? |

Ctrl-Alt-Del, and then closing it in task manager.

Tried that - doesn't work.
Neither does ALT-Tabbing. Does anybody else have this problem? |

Yep Alt-F4 works for me too
"New" (well Gforce 2 onwards ) graphic cards make M1TP2 menu's exit button disappear. |

I sooooo miss this game! And I sort of quit trying to play it once the text disapeared. Will reinstall it and see if the ALT + F4 helps, because there was no use trying to play a campaign if you could not properly exit.
Wonder if anyone ever attempted to "FIX" the font problem so the text would show up? Perhaps it is just a setting in the INI file? Or a registry entry perhaps? And what a SAD SHAME that Hascrap killed this game and Gunship! They both had awesome potential |

Get over it, m1tp2 is antique and deeploy buried under the sand of time, and hopelessly outdated anyway. Play Steal Beasts Gold (smile price) or the follow-up Steel Beasts Pro PE, it will make you not missing M1tp2 anymore.

I just finished building a Win98SE box (Gateway P4 1.8 gHz with 512 RAM) for my treasured MicroProse sims and other games that you simply cannot fully enjoy via emulators and ports. I have the same issue with not being able to close except by using Alt+F4. When I do, I get an error box stating the game has performed an illegal operation and must be shut down. Otherwise, everything works fine.
I have a Diamond Monster 3D II voodoo card so I can use Glide, too! I'm also going to install EAW and a bunch of other DOS and old windows games. Jane's LongBow 2 should look particularly good on this computer.
