    Admiral Tolwyn- Madman or military savior?

    Perhaps you should create a newbie section of the forum and allow the newcomers an area to where they will not have to be shawned by the "vets" who find these discussions tireing. Post a rule for the vets..stay out of the newbie sections so the vets wont waste time becoming agitated by topics...

    Admiral Tolwyn- Madman or military savior?

    Yes...sci-fi often mirrors current world events. One example would be the Star Trek series...both original and NG. Has anyone considered that perhaps Tolwyn's character may have been based on a national socialist leader such as Hitler? Tolwyn could also be compared to another, now captured...

    Acquiring wing commander games

    Best place to find WC items is on ebay. Might also check flea markets and pawn shops around your area. Good luck!

    Tolwyn and Hitler can be thrown into the same bucket... ..the bucket of loonies.

    Wing Commander 2 Special Edition

    Its fantastic there are programs to run these older games in today's pc's. What Im confused about is why games like Doom and ROTT can run without ANY emulator/dosbox or whatever program. Oh well....might have been a lack of forsight on the coding part.

    Off Topic- Wing Commander IV DVD Dual Sided Sale

    Grabed one as well....cant beat the cheap price. And that little patch one of the CIC members came up with makes the purchase of this item well worth it.

    Dragon*Con: The "down and dirty"

    Wow...I will rush right out and file a flight plan to Atlanta, lease a lear45, pay 3,000 bucks for fuel and rental insurance, take time off from much needed work, let bills go to the wayside...all to join 20,000 + "nerds" who get jollys from porn dvd's and magazines? I dont suppose everyone...

    I just started my wing commander collection.......again

    Probably someone who has decided to move on to different things, perhaps because there has not been anything new in WC for a long time. Problem with that is like anything else that is rare..it becomes a valuable collectors item. However...it can only be valuable if said item/s had a huge...

    Admiral Tolwyn- Madman or military savior?

    Tolwyn's problem was simple... ....Absolute power corrupts absolutely, no matter how it begins. Over analyzing a simple problem usually causes the problem to become more severe than what it was when it started.

    Im wondering if anyone has done this...

    Sorry for the delayed post.. I would be happy to help in any way I can. Thanks to great utilities such as Mario "HC1" Brito's WC movie player, which can extract these FMV's to uncompressed avi files, makes the processes less of a pain when creating either VCD or DVD discs. I just wish the...

    Control option: mouse or keyboard?

    Oh btw, I voted. If there were no other choice...a mouse would be the prefered control interface. My previous post is only a personal opinion regarding flight control. And it would not be too far fetched to have a ship capable of different types of control interfaces for the pilot's...

    Wooden model of hellcat

    Very interesting! Are you carving this model or using small modeling tools? What type of wood are you using?

    Control option: mouse or keyboard?

    I dont believe in any game that limits your choice for control option. Dispite what was mentioned in the interview with the game developers for FreeLancer, and I quote... "Final answer...joystick support or no?" "NO! And you wont miss it" Thats a load of bull. I miss the joystick...

    Favorite fighter.

    I doubt that raptor would hold up for very long against the Steltek drone. One good shot from that bad puppy and your space litter. Care to try against a super Centurion loaded with 6 type II Steltek guns and level 7 engines and shields? ;) (even the Steltek drone cant handle it)

    New Movie?

    Ahh..the movie wasnt so bad. Granted it could have been made to reflect the games a bit more. Im wondering who the test audience was, cuz with all the unecessary added dialouge in the script, that in itself made the movie quite rediculous..as if no one in the world would catch on or...

    Im wondering if anyone has done this...

    Each disc takes about 670mb, vcd format. New discs in dvd format using Divx Pro 5.1.1 should be ready soon. Just got a new dvd burner and this will be a great break-in project for that drive. ;)
