Uplink Trust is a Weakness

[maxi155]

I need some help- I don't know how to destroy computers. Whenever I delete system files and i want to reconnect game says that there is no local host (deleted) but my mission isn't campleted. I added patch for this game (ver. 1.3)

Excellent game. I have the exact same problem. I just dont accept those kind of missions. You can still play the game quite happily without doing them. Take a look at the uplink forums if you really want to find out. Im sure someone will have posted about it there.

From the FAQ:


Q: How do I destroy a mainframe?
A:
1. Go to the console
2. Type in "cd usr"
3. Type in "delete"
4. Type in "cd sys"
5. Type in "delete"
6. Type in "cd log"
7. Type in "delete"
8. Type in "Shutdown"
9. Erase your log chain and then fast forward time until it shows up that the mainframe is down <in the Uplink news>
10. Reply to the mission email

Ye done that, doesn't work for me. Uplink has quite a few bugs (I can't hack into the banks because they catch me no matter what I do). Hopefully a new patch will fix these but I'm still able to play the game quite happily.

when do u get caught? during the bank robbery or after?

u can hack into the banks u must be doing something wrong have u deleted all the logs?

[Arbagan]

Sometimes during, sometimes after. I know you can (I tried it on my friends computer absolutely no problems what so ever). It's just a bug in the game (possibly an XP bug since it happens on both my computers which are running XP - my friends was running 98). Oh well I guess i'll try backwards compatability mode then.
