now that is awesome :)

as i recall wcview is a little temperamental with these things, basically only some versions of the wc exe work - install sm1 and see if it prefers that! anyway, it definitely works with copies of sm2.exe - if not then i'll get the info out for you, i definitely have at least one copy of wc.exe...

Okay, so what loadfix does is block up a little bit of the memory (below 640kb). Basically, back in the day, 640 kb was the memory games had to run in, and you would spend literally hours trying to maximise that. The problem was that cd-rom drivers, soundcard drivers, mouse drivers etc also...

Given that this is obviously after the wc3 shoot - why is Jason Bernard expected to be sporting a MASSIVE moustache?

It probably flies a little more like prophecy than wc2 - some oversteer i guess. Anyway, having got it running today you need to install the prologue, then copy the latest inferno build exe into the saga prologue folder. Make a folder called wc2demo and put the latest release file (its not an...

that is the coolest spinning dralthi ever :)

serious bump there! - did you mount the cd drive as a cdrom? mount d d:\ -t cdrom if not then that might fix it :D (basically makes it poll for updates rather than assuming that the drive is static as the hard drive mounting does)

So i get that inferno build and install it to the same folder as the saga prologue? then install the mod?

Maybe I'm just being an idiot, but what is this supposed to mean? I install the 3.6.12 build from here: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=70692.0 then install prologue from here: http://www.wcsaga.com/downloads/files/releases.html do we need a wc3+4 demo...

I guess so, but in that scenario, it only bothers the people with their "seperate movie universe" the rest of us can see it as a variation: After all either it's robert's quadrant - belonging to robert or found by robert or it's roberts - belongong to roberts or found by roberts but it is easy...

Given the number of books that do make it to press with typos anyway - I'd say leave it, then people can make their own assessments - either that it's a typo or that its another sector, or that its an alternative spelling (which is feasible)

Farlander, the point remains that even if everyone else was backing up religiously and have amazing records of what jimmy the intern wrote in the 5th of april in 1989 - Origin didn't. No ifs, no buts. Whether you like the fact or not, they didnt. I believe that as strongly as i believe that iD...

personally, i find it irritating to play the fan sq0 in ega, get sq1 in pretty vga then have to dip down to ega again for sq2 - i dont mind the old graphics, but its nicer to progressively get better! - although the ega versions all run in scummvm these days so there is some advantage to them ;)

doesn't stop people printing it and getting it bound themselves :D - to the university bindery!

ah yeah, as i recall when i bought my copy of the collection (pre the dosbox supported versions) there was two copies of the collection, one with sq6 and one without!

Not even to make a copy for fans to port? or to give to EA? I fear you're missing the point, the source for the build engine exists BECAUSE the engine was sold, not because they wanted to sell it - once you do sell it though, it becomes a commercial assett to have neatly, well organised and...

so i've done some searching around - apparently the vivendi edition released in 2006 (with 1-6 running in dosbox ports) does NOT include the original version of sq1 (although the patch that updates the dosbox will include it if you have a copy) the older collection of 1-6 does include both...

Awesome, now to read the other two novels again!

excellent news! - will they remake the lost chapter though!

If by CD-ROM you mean the collection of 1-5 then actually it contains both. Edit: not sure about the compilation of 1-6 off hand
