Black Pyro doesn't seem to work with GOG Descent 3

Post by Burlyman »

I can't get the Black Pyro to work with the Good Old Games download of Descent 3. I tried playing the single player until you get to fly it but that didn't work. Any ideas?

I have it working after adding this registry entry. You can add it with regedit or use the attached reg file.

Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Descent3 Mercenary
String Value name: UninstallString
You can leave the value empty.

I personally have a kind of a weird schedule.

I work second shift 2pm Eastern to 10:30pm Eastern Sunday through Thursday.

You usually can find me hanging around a BOZ server after 11pm or so, beating the snot out of the bots. :P

On Fridays and Saturdays I might or might not be online pretty much any time after Noon to 1 or 2 am.

Also, if you like, feel free to use any of my 4 servers as well.

Not many server operators left. Mainly its just me (Ari's Stables) and Do_Checkor (DescentForum).

hmm I'll try playing after 11 but I might forget. I've been having problems staying online due to summer thunderstorms.
