    HoTT Brings In The Cats (June 25, 2005)

    HoTT has returned from.. somewhere, bringing with him a brand new photoshop in his own unique style. This one seems to be a suggestion for alternate WC3 wingmen with cartoon cats (or cat-like things) as the common theme. Can you identify them all? Because we sure couldn't. Most of them probably...

    Say Hi To The WC3 Trailer (June 23, 2005)

    Yeah, it's probably a funny ratio since I cropped a bit of blackness off the sides and there was a VCR tracking line across the bottom that I cut out. I would have made it proper 16:9, but the in-game engine bits and the color comms were in 4:3.

    Announcing a new CIC utility for fan projects

    Yup, but then just about all projects are guilty of doing stuff like that. We're just saving people the trouble of thinking up their own crackpot ideas.

    Happy Anniversary ace And blonde! (June 19, 2005)

    Today marks the first anniversary of ace Hyphen One's marriage to blonde Hyphen One. We can only assume that the past year has been a complete success since so far they've only murdered each other in Halo. Although there's no sign of a mini Hyphen One yet. We'd also like to remind people that...

    Stealth Attack In New Wallpaper (June 14, 2005)

    Cyberion returns in style this week with the release of this new wallpaper. The wallpaper depicts a Confed shuttle trying to flee as its escort gets picked off by a wing of Strakha fighters. Some scarring can even be seen on the top of the shuttle. If you like this work, don't forget to check...

    Choose Your Favorite Station (June 6, 2005)

    New Constantinople was in our list of poll options that got sent to Kris, but he apparently missed it when putting the poll up. If it's easy to add I'll ask Kris to fix that, but if not.. sorry :( As for the options, I chose Blackmane just because it has the longest flight deck by far of...

    Choose Your Favorite Station (June 6, 2005)

    They're something that's taken for granted, but you'll be glad they're there if your carrier ever gets blown away. Space stations in WC may not have giant lasers, but we still get attached to them and have our favorites. Now it's your chance to pick the best in our latest poll. There's a nice...

    Bonuses Hidden In Wing Commander 4 (June 3, 2005)

    A lot of people are aware of the Easter Eggs hidden in various Wing Commander games, but it's been our experience that not everyone has actually tried them. There are several command line additions you can add when executing the game that give different messages. You can also bring up two neat...

    SO Guide Update

    I think they're the same thing.. I know 3D Exploration was renamed at some point. Not sure if the plug in works with all versions. It's years since I used it.

    SO Guide Update

    I'm not 100% on this, but if you end up on the losing path for a particular episode it's fairly certain that you'll get the losing password. Not only that but you probably get the losing password for failing particularly important missions (such as defending the Ella starbase). Thomas...

    The Word Game

    Alright, some of you have gotten way too lazy and terrible at this. About 9500 posts ago, people actually thought for a few seconds rather than blurt out the first word that came to mind. Some people also had the tact to wait for more than one or two people to respond before jumping back...

    Bringing You News Non-Stop (May 26, 2005)

    We hit something of a CIC milestone today, two years of bringing you news every single day. Previously we had taken breaks on some days, but since May 26, 2003 we haven't missed a single day. By comparison even quite a few subscription sites take breaks on public holidays. This day two years ago...

    Nanostray Appears At E3 (May 21, 2005)

    The photo of Nanostray was missing from yesterday's update so here it is. It's a new game for the Nintendo DS that we previously hadn't heard of. Chris got a chance to play it and says that it's a "scroller arcade shooter". When I saw the picture with the planet view up top and a map down the...

    Super Wing Commander On The Big Screen (May 19, 2005)

    AD is doing well for noticing strange things. Apparently a film called Synthetic Pleasure was released in 1995. The strange part comes from the complete film credits listed on this site. Super Wing Commander was apparently featured in the film. We haven't seen the film so we're not sure how it...

    Alternate Origin Logo Extracted (May 19, 2005)

    While searching through files for his WCIV movie project, AD came across an alternate version of the Origin logo that plays at the beginning of WCIV. Here we give you both for comparison purposes. One is fiery, the other is less so. It's possible that one was used in different regions. --...

    Cloaking For All (May 17, 2005)

    I believe it says in the Prophecy ICIS manual that several cloaked Excaliburs were sent in to Kilrah system but they were destroyed so it seems reasonable to assume the aliens can see through cloaking. There was actually meant to be a bit in the first mission where you'd cloak but the aliens can...

    That New Movie (May 18, 2005)

    Star Wars Episode III gets a global launch tomorrow, and early indications are that it is going to be great. Lots of WC fans are waiting for this one. In fact LOAF is already waiting in line along with Frosty and his brother. Internet access in Star Wars queues is limited, but here's a cellphone...

    Cloaking For All (May 17, 2005)

    HCl is working on a patch for the Secret Ops engine that many mod makers would love to get their hands on. A patch to allow cloaking ships! The screenshot below is the result of tweaking some translucency parameters in the game. Unfortunately the effect currently only works in Glide mode, but...
