Subject: How to extract max.res
First of all welcome at our board legolas558,
This is a Thread about the extracting the max.res:

But I can say you that extracting the files from the max.res and make them ready to be used ba MAX-Reloaded is al lot of work. First we use *.pcx-files and not *.bmp and the second is that we don't use the same images, what means that they are modified for our use.
One of our developers, Eiko, is working on a "res-installer" which should extract all files out of a max.res file and install them to your MAX-Reloaded folder, but he hasn't finished his work yet.
To get the files anyway you can download the unoffilcial package of MAX-Reloaded. (See the Thread of MAX-Reloaded 0.1.5). In these package you will find all files witch are needed by the game.
But an other point is, that you cannot play MAX-Reloaded over net. Just singleplayer (what realy means SINGLE, whitout AI ) or Hotseat are working yet.
Making game playable over TCP/IP is in progress.
MFG
