    Wing Commander 4 rated as the 29th worst game ever

    Watch it kids. Play nice, or I'll turn this forum around and no one will get to go to Disneyland. This list isn't too entertaining... just a long list of games with comments lacking wit about why the writer hated it. After every entry, I was left asking "Why was it (shoddy/dodgy/etc)?"...

    Yet another WC4 XP issue

    With a messed up disk, there's no way anyone can help you. You're basically SOL until you can get ahold of a set of clean disks. It also bears noting that you definitely need to start taking much better care of your disks.

    Your favourite WC1 NPC

    Really? Not even those on Tin Can Sally? My favorite was always Spirit. A portion of the reason is that she's Japanese. I myself am not, but I have plans to move to Japan within the next few years. The rest of the reason is that she is quite wise and polite, and KNOWS HOW TO OBEY ORDERS. Stupid...

    Kilrathi Saga sucks..(?)

    I've never really understood anyone's objections against the KS set... it worked perfectly for me, beginning to end. The only problem I came across was that my CD drives firmware was so old, it couldn't read CD-R's properly. A quick and easy replacement later, and the games were working fine...

    Question (Probably not the first to have this idea)

    Time and again, the Wing Commander community has amazed me with what can be done for fan projects. Particular favorites are the mods of Secret Ops and Prophecy, which lead me to the following question. With all the talented model-makers out there, is it possible to replace the current ship...

    Matter/Anti-Matter Power Plant

    My thing is... why didn't they incorporate it into future fighters like the Prophecy ships? Infinite afterburn at the expense of those thick, thick sheilds sounds good to me. You could probably install a seperate power plant for the engines too.

    Ghorah Khar 2-D: Hard, Or Maddeningly Impossible?

    The other thing is that if you can deal with not seeing the ending, the kills don't count towards anything, so you can just skip that mission and move on to SO2. *L*

    Ghorah Khar 2-D: Hard, Or Maddeningly Impossible?

    Well, the thing about it is that the torp STARTS locking at 12000, and the AMGs start at 10000. The torp's not done locking before 8500.

    Ghorah Khar 2-D: Hard, Or Maddeningly Impossible?

    Aron, if I try that and it works, I will appoint you to be my Official Wing Commander II: Vengeance Of The Kilrathi: Special Operations 1 Guru (tm). Otherwise, I'll have to officially declare this mission impossible. One of the main problems I have is that they're firing their AMG's...

    Ghorah Khar 2-D: Hard, Or Maddeningly Impossible?

    Yeah, it's tough staying on one said of a Fralthra when it's always got its AMG's pointed at you. Two shots and you're toast. Although, having to weather your own wing gunning you down means a flak blast will kill you in one shot.

    Ghorah Khar 2-D: Hard, Or Maddeningly Impossible?

    For those who don't remember, this is the (technically second-) last mission in Special Ops 1. I'll go over it for those who are as old as LOAF; your memories prob'ly ain't workin' right. ;) In Sabres, you and Hobbes fly to Nav 1, where you meet with two Sartha fighters, and rendevous with...

    Problems landing on base in KS?

    Another thing worth noting is that you oftentimes have to target your carrier before you can communicate with it to request landing. Just hit T until you're targeting the Tiger's Claw (Or Concordia), then hit C. Select the carrier, then request landing.

    Announcing a new CIC utility for fan projects

    I just wanna know why I always get the Freespace 2 engine. Are they tied to IP's or something?

    Your first Wing Commander game?

    Mine was Wing Commander for the SNES. I never destroyed any cap ships (Taking "you don't HAVE to destroy them" a little too much to heart), so I got a bad ending. *L* Then I went through it again and got the best ending. Ah, those were the days...

    ddhelp.exe error w/ Kilrathi Saga

    I run Kilrathi Saga in Windows 98 SE. After running the game for an extended amount of time (an hour or more), or exiting the game via the "Quit Wing Commander" link in the barracks, the game just crashes to Windows saying ddhelp.exe cause a conflict in an unknown module. Does anyone else get...

    Jotunheim 3

    Game: Wing Commander: Secret Missions Mission: Jotunheim 3 The game guide isn't particularly helpful when it comes to this mission... how did you pass this horrific mission? I have yet to pass it, honestly. A tactic I've come up with, but haven't tried just yet, is going towards NAV 1...

    How do I play Privateer with Dos 6.22?!?

    the thing I've found about myjemm is that it absolutely hates it when you set the music for general MIDI... it's crashed and frozen windows every time for me.

    yeah, you're in a Rapier, not a Raptor.

    Kurasawa 2 - Your tips and tricks

    uh, yeah... in Kurasawa 2, the Confederation has captured a Ralari and plans to use it against the Kilrathi. When you reach the Ralari to escort it to the Tiger's Claw, a few of the Kilrathi are already shooting it, making it nigh impossible to rescue.

    Kurasawa 2 - Your tips and tricks

    Yes, I am one of many proud-as-a-Kilrathi to own Kilrathi Saga, and I'm having lots of fun. Naturally, the Kurasawa 2 mission in the first Wing Commander installment is a point of frustration for many players. Me included. Regularly, I try to the get little kitties off the Ralari by taunting...
