When I was a kid ( 10 years old I think ) I saw this game on TV, it looked awesome....few years later, I ordered the game and got it on two CD's. Now I'm 23 years old and I still love this game and I still have those two CD's. Best game ever.
do you know how can it work on pc? i got the original but i can´t play be cause an error appears, i guess that the problem is 64 bits when the game needs 32 bits
This is my favorite PC game of all time. I built a windows 98 computer last year so I could play my favorite games again and this was the first thing I got going. It's also the desktop wallpaper! I just showed it to a friend of mine a couple days ago by letting him play through the first level. Such a goddamn good game.
Rejoice people the game now works on Win10 and can be bought by the guys over at GoG. btw check out the Earth franchise specifically earth 2150, its atleast somewhat similar to this game or the closest there is i suppose.
Someone needs to make a game based on Metal Fatigue. A sequel is impossible unless whomever owns the rights decides to pull a Homeworld on it, which I doubt is likely. The closest hope we have is someone making a game which is very similar to MF. I'd love to see a game with modern graphics and the gameplay and story of MF, because strategy games nowadays are too dull in my opinion. In MF, you built yourself a huge base and robots that fought for you, either on the ground or on orbiting rocks, with tank combat underground. No game has done that to my knowledge, which is just sad because it is a great idea.
TBJ Shōkan Customizable giant robots and 3-layer maps? I don't think there're many games like that, but I'd sure love to see more. God damn it I miss this game.
Made my copy work a couple of days ago! Such a good game. Had some issues with the game freezing after an hour of play or so, but it was easily fixed changing rendering thread options on my Glide wrapper! I can help too if needed c:
Basically all you need to do is install a Glide wrapper, then install the game and choose Glide as your prefered render on the installation settings, and winXP SP2 compatibility, of course. After that it's messing a bit with your Glide wrapper settings to what you like. My freezing problem came from the wrapper settings. Glide Wrapper I used: drive.google.com/open?id=0B10N-tXUsTIraWkxdW5sdi1tMzA These are my settings: i.gyazo.com/afd833881ab0f25ffccf03f7c70346e9.png When I changed thread policy to "Use render thread" my freezes stopped. Used to freeze ~1hr in, but after changed that I could play for hours, alt-tab, etc, and worked perfectly. I also have a .bat launcher for the game that kills explorer.exe before starting up, though not sure if that's necessary, since it froze with that too and the real change was *after* changing Thread Policy. If that doesn't work it might be a combination of the wrapper AND the bat file, in which case hit me up and I'll help with that too! Good luck!
Hahaha well the freezing was caused by the game's rendering, changing that fixes it pretty much, and since on compatibility mode you have sound, done and done. No idea on the image quality though, but hopefully it doesn't freeze again!
For those asking for a remake, sequel, I don't think we'll ever see one. However, I'm trying to "develop" a game heavily inspired by MF. I'm now looking for a programmer that is competent with the unity engine, to get some sort of start. Also an animator. I'm going to do buildings, mostly as I'm not that good at 3D modeling, but I'll try. If anyone is interested, or know someone who might be interested, please spread the word. If you want it to happen, I need help.
This is an old upload, but I'd just like to mention that Metal Fatigue has been released on Steam and GoG. It lacks Rimtech's music (It plays as if it's only Disc 2 in) but otherwise it works.
This game is a huge childhood memory for me, pretty much.... I've played it not all that long ago... and it was still awesome. The combot part system was amazing.
+Maciej Bohn From what I know game was programmed by Zono Inc. and released by Psygnosis. Zono Inc. at some point completey ceased to exist and Psygnosis was later bought by Sony. Really bad situation :/
Metal Fatigue: An ancient, yet awesome game that is fueled by the distilled, pure essence of rule of cool. The first non-anime game where you can modify your bots and make them into harbingers of destruction (either from afar or in close combat). The only minus of this game? The AI. Game urgently needs a sequel or at least a spiritual successor.
For a kickstarter to work, we'd have to have something to show. We've thought of it though and it's something we plan on doing, once we have enough to show.
@MightyX1337 You bet it. You don't have to Zerg rush in this game. It's simply about giant robot beating each other to scrap. And I love giant robots that beat each other to scrap. I'm thinking what if someone used CryEngine3 to make the game go into modern gaming. Now that CryTek released the engine and the tools for it, then someone could make a Crysis 2 mod with MF on CryEngine3 (with better AI and collision detection).
i think there must be really some guys who actually can try to make a remake sequel to metal fatigue... i think ill start an community about metal fatigue...
@Maciejka0111 I think that today with online play this game would be a huge hit. I like Warcraft 3 but if I were to choose between Metal Fatigue and Warcraft 3 then I would choose Metal Fatigue.
I readed instruction with _inmmcnf combination and did it step by step. Effects was exacly like those wrote in instruction but the final effect never came! There is no music during play. Can anyone help me? I have xp pro.
@someotherguy560 I can play it on my current pc but I need to use win XP as it gives a lot of errors on win 7. Even while on XP I still get errors from time to time, unfortunately I no longer have my old pc that ran win 98. There is win XP patch for MF so just grab this and you will be able to play on XP, it even runs on win 7 but on that operating system it crashes in every second game.
sux. dous not run with vista or 7!! damit. Got the original CD. Compatible mode dous not work. get a frozen main menu screen x( hey! time for a NEW Metal Fatique 2017, isent it??! New graphics and easy to connect multiplayer please.
First strategy game in 3D?!?!?! Check again, mate... Homeworld (and few other games - NOT THIS ONE!) were the first... And Homeworld was way better imho.
Download nGlide and install. Run the game and choose GLIDE in game options. Restart the game and play. Restart the game after every match as this game causes memory leaks on newer systems. If the game does not start try running it with WinXP compatibility mode, change that graphic option to GLIDE, exit and disable compatibility mode - game should start fine now.

+roro You need to install nGlide and run this game in Glide graphics mode, then it works to the point where you can play one full match then you need to restart the game and then you can play another mission. TL;DR: Install nGlide, use GLIDE mode, relaunch whole game after every map.
+roro Try running the game with windows XP compatibility mode enabled (right click MFatigue.exe then click Properties and under compatibility select Windows XP. It should run and then you will be able to switch to GLIDE and after that it should always start normally.

Best game ever.
Yes, best game ever
And now at 35?
stop...the nostalgia...it hurts! :(( anyone here play this game anymore?
i know that feel bro....i wanna play this game again ;( but.....i got windows 7 u.u
cant get it working on win 7.......
i´m agree, to play this game you need a diferent OS.
Mauro Candia m3th0dm4n666 im playing it on windows 7. I have the original copy tho..
do you know how can it work on pc? i got the original but i can´t play be cause an error appears, i guess that the problem is 64 bits when the game needs 32 bits
Thanks to Nightdive, My childhood has been restored! :'D

net play over hamachi is fun :)

Haven't checked GoG for over a year. Thank you! I was one of those requesting this. Genuinely going to make my week better.
Best Strategy game of the century what a story n advanced ahead of its time
One of the hardest main menu themes of all time!

I know it's been 5 years and you probably didn't get anywhere, but thanks for trying!
I know it’s 9 years later but did anything ever come of this?
@@AzILayDying66 Unlikely. The guy didn't respond to the last. Sadly this gem is relegated to a Memory of what could've been.
This is an old upload, but I'd just like to mention that Metal Fatigue has been released on Steam and GoG. It lacks Rimtech's music (It plays as if it's only Disc 2 in) but otherwise it works.
Finally added to steam a year or so ago
i love the fact that the soundtrack is on CD in mp3, i tried it on a cd player for fun some years ago and it worked lol!
This game is a huge childhood memory for me, pretty much.... I've played it not all that long ago... and it was still awesome. The combot part system was amazing.
this game is fucking awsome, any other game had or have that way of capturing enemy's technology
My favorite RTS ever!
Metal fatigue > Star craft 2
this soundtrack was my favourite one in this game :-) too bad the game wasnt famous enough to get a sequel to this :-(
Dudes. If anyone of you want the game on GOG, then go in there. Metal Fatigue needs more love.
www.gog.com/wishlist/games/metal_fatigue
+Maciej Bohn I have upvoted this. Zono Inc. no longer exists so it might be hard on re-releasing this game on GOG tho...
SweetyHeaven Sony has the rights now. It'll be darn hard even if they want to include the game into their sales.
+Maciej Bohn From what I know game was programmed by Zono Inc. and released by Psygnosis.
Zono Inc. at some point completey ceased to exist and Psygnosis was later bought by Sony. Really bad situation :/
SweetyHeaven We cannot loose hope at this point.
Really? Now I know they didn't just rip this off with planetside 2 factions, they had the rights to it. xD
1:48 hits so HARD omg
Anybody else happy as fuck to see this game on Steam? I damn sure am!! :D

Why doesn't this game show up on GOG? :(
your wish has been granted
exactly, just bought it there and had some flashbacks to good old game times with it
its also on steam now
At long last, Metal Fatigue is now available on GOG!
Holy shit that's true, I immediately bought it. Thanks for this info.
www.gog.com/game/metal_fatigue
Same for Steam for any Steam players out there
For a kickstarter to work, we'd have to have something to show. We've thought of it though and it's something we plan on doing, once we have enough to show.
I love This music
YEEEEE
That would be awesome. Problem is that we don't really have anything besides the ideas and some concept art. Either way, it'd be good.
metal fatigue - return of the hedoth ... WANT NOW !!!!!

@MightyX1337
Plus the engine is free to download from their main site.
Also, there should be a kickstarter for a remake of it :p
Will do.
Hey, remember to spread the word :)
at least rollcage got sequel, maybe metal fatigue would get one too but unfortunately they were bought by sony :(
@someotherguy560 Easy to do via VPN like Hamachi, tried with friends and didint encounter any problems (you just need to have the same patch).
I readed instruction with _inmmcnf combination and did it step by step. Effects was exacly like those wrote in instruction but the final effect never came! There is no music during play. Can anyone help me? I have xp pro.

These Mil-Agro soundtrack can't be find anywhere, can you upload it please q_q

Anyone know who did the music for this game? They seem to be uncredited in both the manual and the credits.
sux. dous not run with vista or 7!! damit. Got the original CD. Compatible mode dous not work. get a frozen main menu screen x( hey! time for a NEW Metal Fatique 2017, isent it??! New graphics and easy to connect multiplayer please.
First strategy game in 3D?!?!?! Check again, mate... Homeworld (and few other games - NOT THIS ONE!) were the first... And Homeworld was way better imho.
Yeah but this one is also p. good.

Est ce que quelqu'un sait comment on peut le faire fonctionner?
+roro You need to install nGlide and run this game in Glide graphics mode, then it works to the point where you can play one full match then you need to restart the game and then you can play another mission.
TL;DR: Install nGlide, use GLIDE mode, relaunch whole game after every map.
+SweetyHeaven thanks I can play now
+SweetyHeaven Have got an other problem can t play it in Windows 8, have you got an idea for sloves it?
+roro Try running the game with windows XP compatibility mode enabled (right click MFatigue.exe then click Properties and under compatibility select Windows XP. It should run and then you will be able to switch to GLIDE and after that it should always start normally.
+SweetyHeaven
When I do this, a little black square appear and the game begin. But the rest of my screen is the office of my camputer. Result : The game run but I can t see anything XD
It s a very strange problem
