I played Meteor1 v0.621R Beta 4-5 years ago.
I found it on a game magazine's CD.
I beat it uncountable times :D
Yeah, good old days...
It has some "cool features"(bugs that are fixed now) such as:
- "slow bullet" effect (sometimes I ran over a sniper bullet of mine :D)
- random teleporting (i found myself in the middle of nowhere)

Anyway it was great. A few years later I check it on the internet and i found M2.
From this point of view M2 is the best game ever! :D

I can't remember which was my first M. It <b>was</b> M<b>1</b>, so I didn't start Meteor at July 2005 (my joining date)!

My version had the Medium Tank as the old one and campaing till Base Beta. It had the red menuback and the Alternate Worlds as the menu tune.

Oh, and PtX btw, I am converting M1 to M2 as a mod.

ah.. megagames.
In the freegames section i found it too and I thought it's the same version i have(0.621R beta) so I download it just for fun.
But in the zip file i only found a textfile:
"dead link, visit www.jbgames.com " or something like that.
Then I type the web address in ... and now i'm here :D

Thats a great screenshot, clearly a dedicated fan.

You are right about the grass, its because the versions 1.2 and above use 16 bit colour, the older versions were 8 bit using a palette.

Thx!
Hmm.. Dedicated Fan... Sounds cool! :o)
Can I be a 'Dedicated Fan' instead of 'Member'?

Anyway the list is not complete because i got Meteor 1 v1.2 and Meteor 2 beta v1.42 but i lost them in formatting the hard drive...(it was a 'perfect' system break down.. ;( )

About the grass.. In the Meteor 1 v1.31 setup the picture shows you the old 8-bit grass..

I've got v1.1.

About the grass palette, my mod CivilWar has another grass system, it's not the palette but the terrain theatre. :)

Yes, I add it here.. 1.23 MB
You should use WinRar to unzip it.
But remember it's a DOS application.
