[inactive IDMAS.EXE]

-------------------- MAX-FX Error report --------------------
No EMS driver found!!
Please make sure that as EMS driver will be init in your
CONGIG.SYS File i.e.:

DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM396.EXE RAM 2048

looked up the emm396.exe and its a windows 95 program. i can download it but im afraid it may have ill effects with xp. says its for 3.1,95,98,and nt.

Uhh that looks like a virus.

*.scr is a bad thing in windows.

Nice work rdwarrior it definetely is an old dos game called Motor City History Experience, I probed a little more and found that it was made by Austrian developer Max Design before they were bought out by Sunflowers, Motor City (marketed in Germany as Oldtimer) found a version here that worked for me in dospromt..

http://www.waronliner.com/filedb/pafile ... file&id=18" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Create a directory called motorcity and extract the files with paths in
the zip, but start the game with c:\motorcity\IDMAS.exe

http://racecarsim.com/mc_start.gif

I'm reminded of Sim City..

http://racecarsim.com/mc1.jpg

You are taken to an office where you have access to factory, staff etc..
you click the drawrs for options, but I couldn't make the sound work..

http://racecarsim.com/mc2.jpg

You'll love drawr 3 lol..

Anyway something to do if you're bored, will play more with it when
I have time :~)

Are you questioning me????

Most virus's end with the .scr attachment because this is a windows executible file that can trick a simple user(midtown) into thinking its just a screensaver. Try again bitchboy.

There was no problem against you as it was a honest mistake. Midtown thought it would be funny to start shit with me on my playing field. He failed.

And yes they can be a screensaver but always have caution when you are clicking on the files.

The reason i took it seriously was because you compared the two statements and laughed. That and the fact that your a pest to me.

Whats your problem ZitHeaD? Midtown is an enthusiastic youth,

For one im not a teenager. For two Midtown has got into my personal business between my Ex-girl and I. So yes i maybe being a asshole but the pest has yet to apologize to me for some of the shit he said.
