plan fer this page was ta review the different files
available fer download for the game, such as the patches and
Lawmaker. But that's kinda borin'... let's do somethin' else!
If ya didn't get my font pack offa the
first page (shame shame) yer probably wonderin' why this site
looks so damned ugly. In fact I'm surprised ya lasted this
long. Well don't waste another minnit,
get those fonts now!

The Outlaws Sequel Petition
Check the petition for an Outlaws sequel that ran
on this site. You can also check out ideas
from myself and other readers for what to put in a sequel;
if you have some ideas send them in and I'll add 'em to
the Outlaws 2 Wish List.
And finally
in a slightly different vein you may be interested in
my Sketch for a "Realistic"
Western Shooter which incorporates some of the ideas
I had for an Outlaws sequel into a rough draft of a very
different type of Old West game.

MGL: Faster Outlaws Framerates
If you're currently using the DirectDraw Outlaws video
drivers you may get a big performance boost by switching
to the MGL drivers hidden on yer Outlaws CD. MGL boosted
my Outlaws framerates by 300%! Can you say "169 frames
per second" without a 3D accelerator? YES you can: MGL!

Outlaws Adventures in NT
Once ya get used ta WinNT it's hard ta go back ta 95.
Even though it says it doesn't on th' box, Outlaws DOES

'95 partition around fer playin' Outlaws. Check this
page fer th' reasons why.
