Sorry, but that's a very common prob. - So far no-one has found a general solution. For some it works withe the tricks you tried, for others it doesn't (including me :( )

And how can I get it to work? - Even with the latest version of Freedo (1.7x) I can't set up my controls. :( So some more infos would be nice ;)

Ok. Here are the most important settings you need to change: Under "Compatibility" you need to enable "Low-Level CD-Rom support..." Also disable either EMS or XMS there (I disabled EMS, but other had to disable XMS and keep EMS enabled) Btw, i still suffer under the sound stutters, but I...

This Topic at VDMs Forum should help you to get past the error-message. - I forgot which setting it was exactly, so I'll post the link to the Thread: http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=4701&highlight=wing+commander And this might help as well...

Commodore PC-10 with two floppy drives - Forgot most other specs. :( - Was only 5 when we got it (1988) ^^ Then my father bought 5x or 6x 486/386 PCs in 1993 or so... But if you only want to know MY first PC: Hmm. Difficult to tell, cause all PCs I got where family-PCs at one point or the...

I know the FreeDo 1.6.x bugs - I tried it myself. But if the info about FreeDo 1.4 is right, I'll try to find it and try it out with it :D (My 3.2Ghz should be good enough, if not, I'll OC some more ;) ) EDIT: 1.4 is even more buggy for me. - voices stuck in intro, can't select/ change any...

Will do so. - But don't expect a new guide that soon. University started again, so might take me some time to do so...

@ChrisReid: Yes, I remember that. - The Emu is for the Mac version, but I've got the 3DO version :( @criticalmass: Thx. But i'm searching for a Joystick, not a gamepad - gamepads are quite easy to get via ebay as well ;)

Too bad I don't have a 3DO Console (yet. Hard to find in Germany. But luckily I just found one. Have to ask buyer which version it is - no idea if there are diff. versions.) - my Super Wing Commander CD is getting dusty. :( Stilll no-one knows a way to get it working with an Emu like FreeDo...

Lol, I see. Good luck with that auction ;)

Then just get the Deluxe CD Version like I did via ebay. - Anyway: A Floppy drive costs only 5$ or even less nowadays, and imho wc is def. worth it ;) Here is a cd-version (US-ebay): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8186186938&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW That's...

To WC1: Not all LCDs have got probs with 320x240 res. (My own can show that res without probs, btw) - I can't remember who it was, but someone here said, that he/she tests WC1 with the LCD he/she is interested in before actually buying it ;) And you can always find a DOS-copy of WC1 SM1/2 at...

Good idea ChrisReid :) - Was thinking of making a whole new FAQ for running WC-games under XP, cause it seems people are currently asking same questions again and again. - Which sometimes is of course understandable, cause some tips are only mentioned somewhere during a sticky and not in the...

Download the Video-skip-Fix from Hcl in the wcnews file-section. That should fix your prob.

Hmm. Are you sure you mounted your cd-drive / directory as drive D with "-t cdrom" option? And I suppose you kept EMS=False, right? Other than that, no idea :( EDIT: Or try what ChrisReid just said...

Once again the solution is already posted in post#12 in the DOSBox.conf file for WCIII. most important parts: mount cd-rom drive as cd-rom drive ems=false CPU core set at dynamic core is faster, but most likely not that stable Anyway, for WCIII at Ok speeds you need more than 3GHz, at...

You won't be able to run WC3 via Dosbox with a PIII 800Mhz at acceptable speed - no chance. - Even a 3GHz CPU ist still too slow for perfect speed (in close combat even with dynamic core, which is unstable, btw) To your VDMS prob: I know that there is a way arround this error-message, but I...

I was finally able to test your patch with my KS WCIII version. - Still crashes. :( after the Intro, to be exact. Too bad... :\

That's normal. you have to run "loadfix" before starting Wing Commander II. - That should fix it ;) If you still got probs, check out my dosbox.conf for Wing Commander II in this Thread (It's post #12)

Ok. I'll try my best :) 1. Install the game, like you did. 2. Download this file: http://www.wcrevival.de/hcl/prophecy_video_fix.zip 3. Open this zip-file with Win-Zip or Win-Rar or Win-Ace or what ever you prefer. - Windows itself should also be able to open it, but not sure :confused...
