I cannot start the MP mode with MGE... Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

I want to run some tests in the hotseat mode, but I can't start a hotseat game! IIRC there was an option 'start new multiplayer game' in the initial menu, wasn't it? It is missing now. But I remember I was in MP mode with my MGE installation in the past.

Support Apolyton or Terrorists Win

there should be "Multiplayer Game" below "Load a Game" and above "View Hall of Fame". if it's not there, i've no idea what you could do except for reinstalling it :|

Full PM-box? Change here!

When you start a game and go into the options menu (Ctrl+o) what is the version listed?

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

If it isn't in 'Multiplayer' then 'hotseat' then 'start new hotseat game' then you haven't got MGE, or it is corrupted in some way.

Did you install the *ahem* patch that some nefarious person provides.

Suffering from ads?

Hmm does sound like the right version, probably just a messed up menu.txt Here's a copy of mine. Also might want to check your labels.txt and rules.txt
