    MY Wing Commander IV DVD broke into two pieces :(

    :( I just wanted to show my m8 the DVD-quality WCIV movies, when my DVD broke into two pieces when putting it out of the DVD case :( So now I'll ahve to buy it once again. But I don't think, I'll be able to pay such a low price again (Germany!) + I haven't seen them here for a while at ebay...

    Problems with Norton

    Bad news for you: I once had a similar problem with switching from Norton 2000 to 2002. The problem is, the uninstaller didn't uninstall all files. So I thought, the only way would be uninstalling it manually (+ in registry) and guess what? The whole system was down - Norton giving a boot error...

    Problems with WC4 DVD? - after patches applied

    Have you tried yet to watch the movie manually under Windows? I mean the one, which doesn't play when crashing? Maybe that movie is corrupt itself. But honestly I can't tell for sure, cause I haven't played through wcIV dvd yet...

    Making WC DVD-case covers (1. try)

    I guessed something like that :) - Will try to make one, when I've got some more time. Currently don't have that much at the moment :( To the Armada Cover. I see... I already thought that something went wrong there during upload. - Datatransfer was too low :/ But as soon as I got the info...

    Making WC DVD-case covers (1. try)

    ? A single spin for the Kilrathi Cover? Those are 5 Cds. Do you want to put each CD into a seperate case or so? -But if you guys really want that - although I wouldn't know why?! - I could make them, no prob (well maybe some additional fixes needed ^^). Oh, and StewMc already uploaded the...

    Wing Commander Games and Windows XP - A Summary

    And switching off L1/L2 cache does not always help. I tried it with both my PIVs and my father'S Athlon XP and the game and videos were unplayable slow - just like the whole PC. I guess it only works for older CPUs / OSes etc...

    WC3 in Windows 98

    Really? Wow, didn't think so, cause Win9x can use real Dos Soundcard drivers. - I guess it's just similar to DOSBox: It runs under 9x as well, but nearly no-one uses it, cause you've got real DOS, too. And so it's said to not run under 9x (at least I've read that several times. But then I tried...

    Patches for WC3, WC4, WCP

    Same goes for the WC3-Windows patch, I'd say, cause it's just the files missing to turn the DOS WC3 into the Kilrathi version. The link has been mentioned here several times already, btw. But honestly I haven't noticed the USB Joystick fix for Wing Commander IV. That one will hopefully help...

    WC3 in Windows 98

    No wonder VDMS didn't work, it's for Win NT systems only. I'd say the best thing you could do is create a DOS boot disk. There are plenty of threads about how to create one, just check out the stickies. ;) If you are getting into any problems or have got further more question just ask. - Oh, and...

    High-Rez Hornet

    Your models look great - both Dralthi and Hornet! But somehow all your links are broken for me, and I'd love to see the avi + other pics :( Is that only me or is the side currently down?

    WC: Privateer (1) partition/disk/xp/elvis/toothfairy

    Sorry, no idea what's going wrong there, never had that error :( I've seen several Threads about Joysticks there already. Most of them had no replies from the developers, and if so, it was something like: "We don't care" :( - I guess they have just too much work to do for DosBox at the moment...

    WC3 in Windows 98

    Have you tried out idfferent soundcard settings yet? I mean sound blaster instead of Sound Blaster Pro or Sound Blaster 16 or the other way arround, or something else? When using VDMS I had similar crashes with SOME sound-settings, but not all. (Didn't post that yet, cause vdms only emulates...

    Making WC DVD-case covers (1. try)

    That's right, it isn't that important, I'd say so, too. ;) - Just thought it might have been the jpg-conversion, cause, as said, the Prophecy Cover is 100% sharp all over. BUT to: I have to correct you there. On the back of the redbox version, the text is the same size, but when printed and...

    Making WC DVD-case covers (1. try)

    Got it :) - Can't tell yet whether it'll help or not, but thx anyway ;) Btw, I'm currently downloading the back and the front of the privateer-box. EDIT: @StewMc: I've got a question about the Wing Commander IV Cover: What tool did you use to convert it to jpg? I ask, cause I'm unable to...

    Making WC DVD-case covers (1. try)

    Well, for my 6-DVD-Case it doesn't ;) But as usual there are plenty of sizes out there (I've seen 3-DVD cases in single cases size and as big as my 6-DVD-case.) - Btw, it took me quite long to find smaller 3 DVD cases, which I personally prefer over the big ones. Oh, and one quetion: StewMc...

    Making WC DVD-case covers (1. try)

    @StewMc: Your WCIV Covers are looking good :) - But one question about the CD-version: For what box is that for??? I have never seen such a big one before :o - My 6 DVD-case is as big as your Prophecy 3-dvd-cover. @Edfilho: The first DVD-Cover (Armada) is on its way :) IMPORTANT: I was unable...

    WC: Privateer (1) partition/disk/xp/elvis/toothfairy

    The only thing I currently know about Joystick support in DOSBox is, that the developer team is working on it and trying to improve it. That would explain why the CVS is better for you than DosBox 0.61. But the Joystick support is not finalized yet and will improve in future DosBox / CVS.

    WC3 Kilrathi Saga WinXP

    Ah, compared to the amount of RAM it isn't that much anymore, but just about right ;) - At least I learned to use 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 virtual mem compared to RAM. AND: Bad news :( The latest Cat 4.6 drivers didn't help my ATI 9700 Pro. The Game still crashes :(
