There's definitely some kind of bug/glitch with multiple lines for one condition; they'll never use the first one ever. So when there's two death comms, they'll never ever use the first possible one. So if there's, say, 3 taunts, they'll never use the first and will random choose between the...

I always find myself coming back to the modding scene around the same time every year. Hmm. Recently, and by recently I mean 12 hours ago, I randomly started looking at the comm files again. There's a lot of unused speech in the game, be it alternatives for a certain condition that don't get...

How quickly you forget. You put the model into your ship viewer years ago. We even discussed what the ship was, ranging from the Brack to a disabled capship, all ideas that you shot down mind you but still. :p EDIT: Annnd you referred to this fact later in the thread. Whoops. I didn't read that...

Just curious, but do you have any idea if there's a sort of DIY fix for errors like these? Are they fixed by your work?

Jacob Taylor's involvement may be a reference to Zero from WCP, as they were both played by the same actor.

Exactly my thinking. They're not doing anything with it, so why keep it locked up. At this point, with EA's recent business practices, I wouldn't even want to see them pull a WC game out of thin air. Too many season passes, microtransactions and games broken at launch, and still broken sometime...

Are these relevant?

I'm not very educated on IP rights and the like, but would it be possible (and legal) for someone (like Chris Roberts, for example) to make a Kickstarter or any kind of funding campaign to purchase the remaining rights? I'd rather see Wing Commander return in an official capacity even if it's...

Sorry if this has been posted somewhere, I can't find it for the life of me; is there a list of the tracks on the CD?

Blow it up! Blow it up! :p There's something oddly satisfying about seeing a really high-res flight deck in WCP/SO, especially since the SO Vesuvius model was...less than spectacular in that regard. Can you land on it at the end of a mission? I remember the Vesuvius having that function but it...

Not a fan of David Tennant or just Russel T Davies?

I'd be careful with the Vesuvius. It was really bugged in Secret Ops, even the textures were messy, let alone the interior collisions. You may run into an issue with the whole model and the components. Since the bridge/engines/etc are separate models, your base model should actually end up...

I can't believe how old this thread is. I remember it like it was yesterday. I felt this didn't have a place in any of the other WCP/SO threads going on right now, but I did a thing that was talked about in this thread; the Stellar Accretion Device using the unused models. I have the models...

Had a thought, and sorry for derailing the thread from super amazing models in-engine to destructible capships. Alien capships had this shield emitter mechanic, where components would be undestroyable until the emitter is destroyed. The component would be labelled in blue, instead of the...

When you made the destroyed Intrepid, did you take the Fralthi wreck file and repurpose it or make it from scratch? I wonder if there's a way to make the hull model change without making it a component when the capship is dead. Some sort of if/then flag, if capship dies, switch mesh, or...

Tried it, and everything went wrong. :P The ships file has two files, victory.iff and victoryd.iff. Victory.iff is Killerwave's, without modification. Victoryd.iff, I assume, is your modified version, but it doesn't work. Trying to load it crashes the game with a fatal...

I don't suppose you have something like a dropbox link for the "beta" patch so we can test it and bugsmash it further?

I KNEW I recognized your profile picture. It's the robot things from The Girl Who Waited, specifically, Rory the robot. Makes you think if an episode could work in the Wing Commander universe. Some human would be explaining that we're fighting a bitter war against anthropomorphic feline...

I don't know what kind of hardware Defiance is using, but if you want to test your patch with a measly Windows XP running a Pentium (R) 4 CPU 2.53 GHz with 738 mb of ram, I'm your guy. :p

Didn't WC3-4 work something like this? Destroying the capship would cause a bright white flash and all that would be left is a shell? Granted that had some limitations too, at least for the engine and hardware at the time. When you looked away, didn't the 'shell' despawn?
