Unread post Host install / setup guide?
I've got a powerful itch to play some tw2002 privately with my friends for the first time in decades, but despite hours of hunting and trying various things on my own I have not been able to get a copy of tw2002 to run, let alone host it for my friends to play along side me. Is there a guide from zero to running anywhere? If not, I would appreciate any guidance the community can offer! Thank you

No, there is no guide, and it does not particularly like Windows 10/11.
Hop on Discord, and we can help you get setup.

Hmm. That's odd. I just finished setting up the current version on Windows 11 for ARM running under Parallels 18 on a brand new MacBook Air M2 and it seems to run fine.

I've just installed it on Windows 10 (latest build), and it is running fine on my end.
