I just found my old copy of ROTT yesterday! I was fishing around for my Windows98 boot disk, and found my disks with the game on it. I've been looking for it for years (And, of course, you guys know how cleanly I am ;) )

I used to love Rott. I install it today... and it's not looking so hot. It's slow, and I hate the inverted mouse-aim axis. Does anyone know if there are any ports out there for it? The source code's been out for quite some time now, so I imagine there's something...

There was GLRott, but it was canned due to "lack of interest".

:(

Damn. There aren't any more?

Another thing that's bugging me, is that I don't get any music. I get sound effects and stuff, but no music. Grrr.

Hi-res still doesn't work right, but both music and sound do.

I think ROTT was a little over rated.....But I would love to see if anyone made any PWADs for DooM2 that contained weapons from ROTT.:)

ROTT wans't overrated at all, infact, it's a "failure" in sales. :P

I love ROTT though, go akimbo pistols, sense of humor and has gargoyle heads painted on the walls :D

Hey Cheapy. Isn't it time you changed your title?;)
I found a ROTT demo a few weeks ago but It won't run on my box.:(

How in the world was ROTT overrated? For one thing, hardly anyone outside of the FPS world, and even a good chunk of people in the FPS world, has not heard of it (While EVERYONE has heard of Wolfenstein, Half-Life, DooM, Unreal, etc). Plus, it has TONS features that none of the other FPSes had at the time. It has the most creative Deathmatch (called Com-Batt) modes ever put in a FPS. It may sound silly, but Tag is a blast. What other game can you freaking play tag in?

And that sucks, Ninja. I honestly think the demo was more fun than the regular game. *crazy*

jRott or a nice OpenGL ROTT port would be nice.

It was a good game. What it needs is vehicles.
