Seriously good fun and pretty addictive too (though the last mission in the game is preposterously, unfairly, difficult .. and nearly ended up with my 360 controller in bits)
Why not? I play fear2 using my gamespy ID. I was able to log in in age of booty too, LAN works, but it crashes when hosting or joining an online match.

Because thats not LAN, thats still internet. It might be using the LAN once you start but it still requires an active connection to get into the game I am assuming. I don't have an active internet connection where I LAN so the game is not playable offline but I wanted to try it with my buddy.
If there is a workaround then its great, if it requires gamespy then it's just shit.
does anyone know how to change the resolution? i can only go up to 1280x720, 1152x720 is greyed out. so i either have scrolling issues in window mode or it gets stretched in fullscreen
Aww, shame. I dunno what it is about the game, but something grabbed me straight away and I've been playing ever since (I wish there was something for XBL like that SteamCalculator, I'd love - and hate - to see how much money I've spent on that bloody thing)

I guess you'll have to do with the provided resolutions. If you've a widescreen monitor that uses a different proportion, then you can try tinkering with its settings so that it doesn't stretch stuff when in resolutions that don't fit the screen.
The game's current resolution values can be found in the registry. I've tried going from 1024x768 to 1280x1024, but I didn't see any difference. Either it doesn't alter the resolution because it's not a supported one, or stretches 1024x768 to 1280x1024 (just like the monitor would do on its own if you picked the former and went fullscreen).
In case you want to experiment, the registry entries are in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Capcom\Age of Booty
That's in WinXP. Don't know how it changes in Vista.
PS: Has anyone found a way to alter the default player name? It's not in the registry.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
