Easy. A shield icon consists of five frames: ship + 4 quadrants. Weapon selection involves adjusting one of our HUD scripts. We have a default HUD in place though, so you could just use that one at the start. Mission creation tools our now available, by the way, via our forum.

You will learn how to build something like this though, which is something, I guess.

Aim lower. ;)

Update: I expect to have the first tutorial draft along with the necessary tools and autopilot template to be available on Tuesday at the latest.

I'll try to write a tutorial before my vacation. Without it, you might not be able to utilize our autopilot template.

Not very likely. There are a lot of changes in Saga's code, performance optimizations, bugfixes, etc. Some changes break FSO compatibility. I expect FSO to utilize our features, but I do not expect them to spend a LOT of time going through the code and implementing every change we made. I will...

Correct. Still, one could always opt for Freelancer/Prophecy-styled cockpits. These should work nicely.

Without the RTT functionality cockpits are pretty much useless. After a lot of consideration we decided to axe them for the initial release. Adding cockpits isn't hard and any skilled modder can do that in a matter of hours. You don't even have to modify existing models - all you need to do is...

In our rough estimation, creating a game like Saga with a medium-sized team and middleware technology would have cost as 2 millions at the very least. Do the math how many copies you need to sell to just start making profit. ;)

Then again, with an appropriate PR campaign you can sell almost everything these days. According to our website statistics most visitors come, unsuprisingly, from Germany. Think of the possibilities with better media coverage. ;)

Obviously the number was an educated guess - we do not have download statistics for half of the mirrors and that does not take torrents and file hosters (which are very popular in the Eastern Europe) into account. It is safe to say though that Saga has been downloaded over 100k times during the...

Thanks for reporting. Please try zero, which is the standard value for the first HID.

Thanks for sharing. Geforce 7800 is a fairly old card and by the looks of it it can't handle some of our models. You can try some performance tweaks suggested here.

This full release of Wing Commander Saga contains two campaigns. The first is an upgraded version of the original "Prologue" campaign. It has been upgraded with an expanded story, more characters in-game, Wing Commander style autopilot sequences (rather than the long, time accelerated autopilot...

Don't attack him head on. Evade him and kill his buddies.

REG_DWORD, hexadecimal

They key is called CurrentJoystick and usually the default value is 0 for the first joystick and 9999 for no joystick. Try using 1 or 2 instead. Sometimes the launcher may enumerate input devices incorrectly.

Please try the registry trick posted above.

Try setting the key value to 1 or 2 and then start the game via wcsaga_sse2.exe. Do not use the launcher. See if that helps.

Appreciated!
