Guest superkingdave Posted March 12, 2003 Report Posted March 12, 2003 please... it cant be that hard :) i had it on my amiga back in the early 90s and that was pretty s***. it wouldn't have to be that in depth someone answer my prayers please
Guest yatpeak Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 Sorry, but what is championship manager? Thanks, Wyatt
Guest SirGaz Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 It's a football management game (Soccer for you Yatpeak - being in Australia). Just about the game that all other football management games aspire to. The latest incarnation runs (just about) on a 2GHz PC with 512Mb RAM and 40Gb hard drive (exageration - but it is pretty system heavy). The earlier versions weren't too bad though. It's entirely text based but blooming addictive, entire weekends go by before you know it. Edit, just re-read my post, my typing is definately getting worse, roll on 4:00pm and I can go home and relax.
Guest Emad Posted March 13, 2003 Report Posted March 13, 2003 It nearly ruined my GCSEs, bastard program (mind you, try to beat 1.6 million points (without cheating) on 97/98 :)). Glorified spreadsheet. But still a laugh.. Been playing CM4 Beta for PC. Looks a bit prettier, but doesn't have the right feel.. Ah well, its a beta..
Guest Billy Marrafyass Posted March 20, 2003 Report Posted March 20, 2003 YES YES YES - cm3 + cm4 (demo) are a bit too complex - I still play CM2 97/98 and edit the stats. It's a DOS game, which runs on a DOS emulator on later versions of Windows. Maybe someone could create for the SPV??? - it is after all a very simple game. Maybe the SPV screen would be too small for easy readingof all the stats???? Come on all you clever folk - this should be a doddle compared with Gnuboy and SmartNES...? :wink:
Guest Emad Posted March 20, 2003 Report Posted March 20, 2003 Problem is its not open source.. And the screen probably is too small :) What emulator do you use for CM2 97/98? I've been trying to get it to run on Win 2k with no luck ;) Hmm.. I think I may try this if I don't get a job next week - not a direct port of CM, but a game similar.. We'll see..
Guest Emad Posted March 20, 2003 Report Posted March 20, 2003 Ahh, got a job - maybe my three month summer hols :)
Guest Billy Marrafyass Posted March 21, 2003 Report Posted March 21, 2003 CM2 97/98 doesn't run on Win 2k - it just doesn't recognise a DOS game...if i remember rightly we used to have a dual boot system - win 98 & win2k: we used win98 for cm2: it runs fine on xp though...
Guest Flash Posted March 21, 2003 Report Posted March 21, 2003 Don't want to put a dampener on this wonderful idea chaps, but imagine how slow it would be - it's bad enough on a PC! :wink: In order to enjoy a 'playable' game on the SPV, you'd have to remove 95% of the game engine - there'd be nothing left!! :)
Guest superkingdave Posted March 24, 2003 Report Posted March 24, 2003 but the first championship manager ran on my amiga off three floppy disks. my amiga only had 1 meg of ram... maybe someone could make an amiga emulator for spv... then even if cm was impossible we could get football manager or swos or one of my favorite ever games... ancos player manager
Guest Billy Marrafyass Posted March 24, 2003 Report Posted March 24, 2003 Cm2 doesn't run that slowly on my PC - though it is rather a fast machine. I agree it's probably just a pipe dream to run it on the SPV, but then again matbe not - I mean Doom is on my SPV and works a treat....I think the only issue is screen size (all thosee stats on THAT screen)..? Mind you the people who could sort this for us are more than likely not in the slightest bit interested in Championship Manager!!
Guest rocknsock2k Posted April 14, 2003 Report Posted April 14, 2003 it would have to be such a small and basic version that it wouldnt be very good- im sure everyone knows how slow doom runs n thats a lot smaller than any or the recent cmsssssssssssss
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted April 14, 2003 Report Posted April 14, 2003 Doom is perfectly playable on the SPV :lol: Make sure you use the "exp" version, no debugging and a lot faster (loads in ~10 seconds etc....)
Guest tomesy Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Championship Manager would be awesone. I would be greatful for any football manager type game to be honest. There used to be some really basic and addictive football management games for the ZX Spectrum, so complexity doesn't necessarily improve playability.
Guest capt_janeway Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I am a total dumbo - but what about a real-life premiership prog liek I had on my palm - ie: fixtures, tables etc and when you added results etc it would update the table automatically for you. (Actually being a WHUFC fan - maybe a Nationwide prog might be better :roll: )
Guest Falslev Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 If u use GnuBoy you can play a game called Soccer Manager. I have played it ones and it was with all the real football clubs and players. Contakt me for more info
Guest spacecowboy6982 Posted April 19, 2003 Report Posted April 19, 2003 Also, O'Learys Manager 2000 or something for GBC - theres a link to it in the software section - its a champ-man clone. SpaceCowboy
Guest Rayman Posted May 27, 2003 Report Posted May 27, 2003 It would be really cool if there was an application for syncing your PC CM4 save game to your SPV. Then you could research players, teams, formations, training schedules, stats etc whilst on the move and then sync back to the PC version of the game. Now that would be cool!!!!!!!
