Since the current available GOG version of MAX 1 (v1.04 - r21516) already contains the last available DOS/32A v9.12 extender, I had very high hopes to see round based gameplay above 100+ rounds... but sadly, nothing changed at all! After I've crossed round 95, either from there the game crashes permanently everytime you try to end the round, or it developes some weird behavior, and finally after round 102-105 it's really game over, at least for me! :(( Tried it on my W8.1 game box with 2 fresh game restarts, until round 95 starts everything runs smoothly, and after hitting round 96 you're doomed! Really sad, because I totally liked MAX 1 since its first appearance back in the 90's (then played on an P75 with W98SE, and already buggy like hell ^^ ), but yeah, since the game never got any proper W2k/XP/Vista/7/8.1/10 upgrade I guess it's finally the end, especially since Interplay seems to be as dead as a doornail right now... their webpage is mostly empty now, but it seems it was still alive some time ago... It's really unbelievable to me that no one was able to do some kind of fan made patch or fix since the 1st release in 1996, and it seems the original developer crew also shifted into another dimension? (or dead already?!) Well, I'm going back to my corner and will shed some tears about the situation... :/
