There is a map of the Gemini Sector, and it's 4 Quadrants, over on WC News, in their map section. (Along with every other Wing Commander map!)

Except for the descriptions of Freelancer-specific items, just about all of the language elements will be in English.

The problem is the system lighting. When I wrote the new Gemini Sector, except for Perry and New Constantinople, EVERY system has one light source, it's sun. (If it has one. Systems without a sun have a light source in the center of the system.) (In Perry, and New Constantinople, there's an...

I HAVE MechCommander 1/Gold/2, but the BattleTech games were a lot of fun. I had them on 3 1/2" floppies that would auto-config/run. Wish we could still set up autoexec.bat and config.sys like we did in DOS. Made my life a lot easier! (And kept my games playable until WinXP came out.) PS...

Kinda funny reading this. Devon_v's comments are, for the most part, the same things I heard when I was working on the "Privateer: The Reckoning" mod for Freelancer.

According to my data: The Centurion has: heavier armor & Shields quicker acceleration larger cargo hold 4 Weapon mounts, 2 Missile Racks, and an optional rear turret. The Demon's main advantage is a slightly higher speed it too mounts 4 weapons, but just 1 missile rack, and no rear...

I've tried several times, and have never gotten anything to run in DOSbox. 'Sides, I like what I've seen/heard about this remake. It's got all of the original stuff, with a few new wrinkles that probably could've been put in the original, if the computers had been better. And, of course...

You might try using that "bit torrent" program to see if you've got a corrupt file somewhere. There's several posts about people using it to fix errors.

Understandable. I realize that they are being completely faithful to the original game. I'm still curious, though. The Drayman has/had bulges that appear similar to those that house weapons on the Paradigm, IIRC. That has always made me wonder if the Drayman should've/could've had...

'Sides that... For those of us who played the original game... The Tarsus, when properly set up, is one kick-arse little ship. Sure, your first few missions are hairy, but every mission brings a better piece of equipment, and higher paying missions. I ran the original game with just the...

I'm a bit curious... As I'm familiar with the antics in Freelancer, and the many MechWarrior games... I wonder if the Drayman could fall into the category of "Capable of having, but doesn't necessarily have." In Freelancer, the freighters are, for the most part, capable of having 6-8...

Not to burst anyone's bubble, but I ran into a similar problem several years ago. I was making a computer game, from scratch, based on Avalon Hill's "Magic Realm" board game. After mentioning it on several forums, and being asked about legallity, I contacted Hasbro, Avalon Hill's current...

My thoughts have always been that Tolwyn hated Blair, but was cognicant of Blair's abilities. His reactivating Blair was simply his way of creating a Win-Win cituation: 1) Blair confirms the Border Worlds (Black Lance) attacks, and there is a call to war. (Tolwyn's ideal outcome-win.) 2)...

I beg to differ... The 2 Resident Evil movies were good, the 2nd is my favorite of the 2. The 1st Tomb Raider movie wasn't too bad. The Dungeons & Dragons movie was alright, except for the Elves, which seemed a bit wierd, to me. And while the Wing Commander movie suffered from the infamous...

The Righteous Fire intro movie is in the Privateer: The Reckoning v4.65 mod for Freelancer. (Remove the .FLMOD extension, unzip the file, and look for it in the "Movies" folder, it's playable in Media Player.)

I agree that many of their reworks of the classics leave much to be desired, but I simply meant BattleMechs that were seen in the Many MechWarrior games, in general, and not the abominations, and plethora of vehicles and infantry found in "Dark Age." Harmony Gold acquired the American rights...

About a year, or so, ago, it was announced over on www.mwrealms.com that a BattleTech movie was in the works. However, after they announced that it would be one of those "Start from the Beginning" type movies, fans complained vehomently about it. And when it was announced that instead of using...

L.I.F.: Place the mod in the Mod Manager's "MOD" folder. Run the manager, and activate the mod. To everyone with comments about the mod: Many of the bugs are due to a problem with my computer. For some reason, it corrupts the files. One way to fix it is to copy the "INI" files, open...

Something that finally clicked, made me realize that there may be some confusion about the Reckoning, and it's "TEAM." In October 2003 I decided to check out Freelancer, as I heard that it was alot like Privateer. When I did a search on it, I came across Lancer's Reactor, and discovered that...

Well, I cain't program, but I love Privateer.
