smrtgi19: It uses IPX for LAN which is no longer supported... it also uses NovaWorld which does not work atm, not sure how to get this going?
Haven't tried it yet as I ain't bought it yet, but you might want to give IPXWrapper a try to see whether it does the job.

Haven't tried it yet either, but it's reported to work with another Novalogic game, Delta Force II, which is a good sign.

Not sure if this will work with the GOG release but thought I'd mention it anyway. There is still a fan mod site going (17 years later) and they have some patches for multiplayer. Also have mods to play the NPC ships included. I think service bay 2 is the best mod since the ships are more balanced. But haven't tested this with the GOG release.

Hi there,

have you found anyone online? I have so many memories from this game I want to buy it again, only if I can play some multiplayer again. (ok, the campaign is awesome anyway)

Someone said that there was a IPXWrapper in the game folder. Might want to look into that.
