Shoot me a PM Teancum (btw, what is up with your screenname). I've tried to zip it, copy it, etc, but for some reason the copies I've sent out dont work, as far as I recall. If anything, I guess if I get the money, I can burn a copy and mail it.

Not surprised he was devastated, even if we as fans are disappointed, to see a project you were involved in be completely done, and then all the hard work down the drain has got to be heartbreaking.

Hi skizzo. It's been a while, hasn't it?
Also, it was in beta, not 100% complete. Still, at least now we have a somewhat playable from that can be spread around to whoever wants it (when aaron fixes whatever problems he's having). I guess that sorta counts as a release, right?

Shoot me a PM Teancum (btw, what is up with your screenname). It's definitely NOT what you're thinking: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeancumI've tried to zip it, copy it, etc, but for some reason the copies I've sent out dont work. Yeah, you have to rip the disc as an actual PS1 game for it to actually play. I just did this with the non-Greatest Hits version of Jet Moto 2 so I could put it on my PSP (I'd rather have 10 racers). The tools to do so are 100% free, but I need to find the link for the tool I used. Once you rip the disc you can simply RAR/ZIP/7ZIP it up and you're good to go. I was actually wondering who or what entity owned Jetmoto's rights. I wonder if Sony would ever be willing to sell them, Just out of curiousness. Possibly, but I'm sure it's for a lot more money than any company/entity that wants it has to offer. It's a shame, too. Jet Moto would be the perfect multiplatform series to release on PlayStation Network/Xbox Live Arcade/WiiWare/Steam (for PC). Still I'm guessing to buy the rights would cost several hundreds of thousands, if not a million dollars and change.

There's a new Twisted Metal game coming out. Perhaps if it sells particularly well, we could see a Jet Moto revival sometime.

I don't doubt it. Never thought it would be cheap at all. You said you had experience with C++ right?

Heh, yeah, but bringing 199x Jet Moto up to 2010 standards is beyond my capacity.

I'll be hanging around for sure. Always loved the game =P, never could find anyone else that shares my interest until now though! Glad to see Jet Moto is still alive!

teancum sent me some links to try and get my copies zipped properly and working. I'll give it a shot in the next few weeks. Got 5 papers for school, and an anniversary party to throw. Gonna be pretty busy for a bit.
