    Question for WC war vets...

    The Scimitar was capable...plenty of missiles and shields. I will say the Dralthi ][ was a great upgrade, more speed, same guns, and lots more maneuverability. Plus, an opportunity to fry Jazz a bit early.

    Question for WC war vets...

    WC2 doesn't hold any really memorable memories for me...I'd really have to say a lot of WC1 missions I loved, though. Like first Raptor flight, first encounter with Hhriss, flying past hordes of Jalthi and Drakhai Hhriss and a couple of Snakeirs in a Dralthi...speaking of which...that damn...

    Dreadnought

    Well, when I was wiping out the Sivar with my lasers alone (damn wimpy WC1 capships), I noticed that on the bottom of the big round sphere up front (obviously the weapon's housing), it looked like there was a big round closed hole...if you know what I mean. I don't have WC1:SM1 data files on me...

    I believe I did make such a reference.

    NEW PICS OUT TODAY

    You can quote me as saying earlier in the thread that "if it weren't for Macintoshes, we wouldn't have Windows". Microsoft Windows was originally a licensed and heavily modified version of MacOS (see Apple's lawsuit to stop Microsoft from using that license on later versions of Windows). As...

    You and your ship, or your fighter.

    You damn superfighter freaks...:-) I might just have to take you all down in a Hhriss.

    B5TC

    CEOTrident has made a lot for his XWA TC, dunno which specifically. He might be able to help you.

    I think it has something to do with the fact that the Macintosh Operating System, up to version 9.whatever, is a non-multitasking operating system. One button, one task...keeps it simple. ;-)

    Could you send me links for all those fan projects out there?

    Holy crap! The XWA TC info listed there really really really needs to be updated: Steele fell off of the face of the earth, and he wasn't really organizing a total conversion seriously... The project leader is Noburu Akimoto, he can be accessed at nob_akimoto@the-sfa.org - and our website is...

    Here are my PICTURE links.

    Well, since Nob and I are in control of the WC ship stats in relation to XWA's, we will determine how the universes cross over (and even how WC1, WC2, Privateer, WC3, and Armada will cross over). As it is, we're making the WC ships generally stronger and tougher than the XWA ships, and we're...

    *dreddnott lowers himself to replying to the thing known as Antman* "If it wasnt for the mac, you wouldnt have a PC" This statement is loaded with ignorance: the IBM PC was released in 1982, and very shortly afterwards came the Apple Lisa: a clunker that directly ripped off Xerox's GUI...

    Thread Order

    All right, baaack to topic! Perhaps you should consider reversing the post order (first post first), it may actually end up keeping the thread on topic (i.e. they see the original message and the progression from there, and not the last inane off-topic piece of shit that they feel obligated...

    You and your ship, or your fighter.

    I've always been partial to the Tarsus, but the Grikath really makes my heart race...ugly, slow SOB that turns and shoots like hell! Or, just give me a Ferret and I'll be happy. Testing it out in the WC Academy game proves it's the most powerful fighter ever. :-)

    Ongoing WC project about to break out

    DXF is basically universal, it contains, however, no texture information whatsoever.. You can convert the Fralthi to any format you like, because I'll texture it from scratch. I'll be getting the Strakha Mk. I and maybe the Crossbow done soon, as well..

    Various Ship classes...?

    I am not now, nor have I ever been stupid...post count is a poor determinant variable, don't you think? Perhaps you should judge by post content, not by post count, which is more indiciative of level of insanity (not necessarily a bad thing).

    Ongoing WC project about to break out

    All right, here are some of the WCTC DXFs and textures (a few WC2, Privateer, and/or Confed are missing, I'll make another zip with the rest if you need them). http://www.xwlegacy.net/wctc/other/wctctexes1.zip http://www.xwlegacy.net/wctc/other/wctcmodels1.zip I'm expecting that Fralthi...

    converting WC1-WC2 ships

    Actually, me and the XWA WCTC gang have made a few...but they're for XWA until we give them to the Unknown Enemy team, and/or Defiant makes an OPT to 3DS converter. Specifically finished are the Hornet, Scimitar, Raptor, Rapier A, Drayman, Venture, Salthi, Dralthi, Krant, Gratha, Jalthi...

    Ongoing WC project about to break out

    We texture the ships with an in-house texturing program known as "ACE_DXF" (Alliance Craft Editor, DXF format only). When I imported the Gratha (or any other ship) DXF into ACE_DXF, and as I apply the textures in ACE's native PRJ format, the textures are mapped. Only PRJ and XWA's native OPT...

    Priv/WC2 problems

    Privateer is the pickiest game I've ever played - although I don't have it to test since I got my PCI sound card to replace the 1994 SB AWE32. WC2 and WCA both do speech, MIDI, and sfx perfectly (Yamaha DS-XG, $15 card). Get a 486, they're fun for doing lots of things, even WC1 if you use...
