I didn't follow too closely when watching the video, so pardon me if it's already answered in the video: did he end up hijacking a different button for opening multi-player dialog? I assume there is no way to recover the removed multi-play button since the sprite (?) was already removed?
Also I'm surprised not only they removed the multiplayer button, they even centered the remaining one.
- devstar 3y agoI could be misremembering since I watched the video on its initial release day. I believe the sprite asset was still there and he was able to restore the original button.

- sangnoir 3y agoThe sprites weren't modified. The vendor of the online version (GOG) had patched-out the button that he patched back in.
- thrdbndndn 3y agoAt 5:12 he showed what the menu should be like from an old screenshot, which has a multiplayer button (right bottom, "two computer double arrow to each other", refer as B2 below). On the left of it, it's a button of "a worm with a hard hat", refer as B1 below. In his GOG copy, even after fix, there is only B1 and it's centered now to occupy the full space. At the end of the video, after the fix, he was still clicking B1 button to enter "network play" since no B2 button is there. So I'm still confused. He didn't restore the missing button. But of course he did something. Did he re-bind the networkplay dialog entrance from missing B2 to B1? What happens if you just click B1 before the fix? Was B1's original functionality overridden by his fix? Alternatively, if it's indeed supposed to be at B1 (I can't tell from icon what its functionality is), then why even mentioning the mission B2 to begin with?
