Frequently Asked Questions
Important:
Due many changes we recommend a fresh install of MAXR especially when you make use of the resinstaller. Some game resources changed and if you e.g. don't have sound any more you know that you have to rerun resinstaller
0.2.9.
Info:
If maxr fails to start maxr.log is a good place to start. If you're stucked it might be a good idea to take a look at the
manual. Please report crashes, bugs, odd behaivors or differences to the original game on the
Bugtracker.
Hint: Drop by on the Discord to find other players. There is no game lobby or some sort of master server. MAXR is a standalone application and you have to find other players the old way. Ask your friends, on the Discord or even on the bbs. Remember about timezones when you party.
Make sure to check the
manual for hotkeys and ingame commands.
Job offer: You got some free time and want to get involved? Waste precious leisure time without getting money for it? We're still looking for
translators, testers, sound artists, packager for various distros and especially an amiga porter! Just report on the bbs or on the Discord or send us a mail/postcard
