    Interesting... what happens during the installation if you re-insert Disk #1 when asked for #7?

    If Wishes Were Hornets (June 13, 2007)

    I think it's fully playable since v0.4 (or even earlier). I can't believe it's been almost five years since it was first announced :)

    If Wishes Were Hornets (June 13, 2007)

    The top game they would like to see remade is Star Control 2? I wonder if the Gamespy article author knows about uqm 0.6.2.

    Burn multi-CD (WC) games to DVD?...

    Well done sir. Does the burnt DVD require a specific volume label name?

    Jump-Space

    I think there is a substantial size difference there. The Morningstar is under 2/3 the length and 20% of the mass of a Broadsword. As a third comparison the Crossbow is 2/3 the length of a Broadsword, twice the mass as a Morningstar, but yet better protected than a Broadsword (in-game...

    Jump-Space

    I guess it can depend on the reference material: A possible implication from the WC2 game and its addons is that jump drives are generally too large to fit on a fighter craft. Attempts to miniaturise jump technology to fighter size craft (a la the Morningstar) was not too sucessful. In...

    On the download link, please right-click on it, and choose "Save Link As..." or "Save Target As...". You'll then be presented with a File Save dialog box - you can manually type in the name of the file, for example ks-compatibility.zip

    Creating WC 4 movie style effects... how hard !?

    I strongly suggest going to an animation school as it's the best way to fuse both the technical and artistic aspects of 3D animation together, as you mentioned, learning by doing things the right way... you also need to get a good grasp of all the basics - and then specialise in the discipline...

    Ralatha, When The Walls Fell.

    I found that I could never get the two capships to cross-fire upon each other as they maintain formation while chasing after me. To directly address the original question, if you end up flying a bomber with afterburners (like a sabre) then it's much easier as long as you have enough fuel...

    Ralatha, When The Walls Fell.

    It's slightly easier to evade the AMG fire when you're on your way out since your flight path is no longer constrained by having to maintain lock. While you can jink and weave all you like, by that time youre shields will probably be halfway worn and care must be taken that you don't end up...

    Run All Old WC Games in DOSBox Walkthrough

    I think the CPU requirements of WC1 is relatively low that it wouldn't have a great impact on joystick stability. Solely for the sake of curiorsity, does your PSOne USB Controller require drivers to work or did Windows configure it by itself? On the calibration screen in Windows, how much does...

    Which laptop should I get?

    Please reread my post. The parts, by themselves in isolation, aren't the problem. It's the overall design and combination of parts which stresses the system and causes them to have a lower MTBF. When talking about hundreds of thousands of units, it's cheaper for the big system builder...

    Run All Old WC Games in DOSBox Walkthrough

    What happens if you toggle between the normal/dynamic DOSBox core types? If that doesn't help, it's probably more expedient to try the Sidewinder instead.
