This easiest way dude to avoid glitches is to copy and paste your myth of soma folder into c: call it myth of soma 1


Then follow these steps with regards to the Myth of Soma 1 folder.

For the last step on windows 7 you can do by right clicking desktop, scren resolution, advanced, list all modes and change to native res and 16bit colour.

Cheers for the help. So far copied the client and set up the new shortcut, but it now says it needs to be run from the menu.

I'm useless at computers and this is confusing me haha!

did u rightclick somawindow.exe and "send to" desktop (create shortcut) ?

then rightclick the desktop shortcut, properties and add the ip to the end of the target location ?

sounds like u just move the full somawindow.exe and not made a shortcut

Sorry dude was out with my wee boy.

As jaheira said -
It needs to be a shortcut, right click it and add the IP address to the end

Step 1: go in your copied Myth of Soma folder
Step 2: Right click SomaWindow.exe
Step 3: go to Send To and click Desktop (create shortcut)
Step 4: go to your desktop
Step 5: right click SomaWindow.exe - Shortcut
Step 6: Click properties
Step 7: in target after SomaWindow.exe" hit space
Step 8: now type in: 192.99.150.23
Step 9: click compatability at the top
Step 10: tick "reduced colour mode" and select 16 bit
Step 11: hit apply and ok... Now run as normal.
