    For whatever other failings Saga has... that Thud is gorgeous.

    Modeling discussion?

    It's less that I have a specific project in mind, and more that I'm dipping my fingers into modeling again and trying to do so seriously this time through. My intent is to avoid bad habits and create with an eye to a usable finished product on all projects, which requires knowledge and...

    Modeling discussion?

    I was curious if some of the more experienced modelers were open to discuss technique and method... less of a specific-program or a specific-problem line and more best practices and a professional approach to the art. My leading question(s): when modeling complex objects, and with an eye to...

    Edit save game files?

    Is it Gemni Gold or Privateer Remake that the Demon is flyable? I remember those being extremely cheap and approaching broken-powerful. That might be a good place to start. Or scouting missions with the best armor/engine/AB you can afford.

    Hakagas

    Recycled into Hvar'kann parts? I'm guessing that the fact that they were crushed despite massive superiority during the assault to Earth made them less than worthy in the eyes of Kilrathi fleet leaders. In a culture where defeat=death it might make since to scrap a ship type after a defeat...

    Rapier Redux

    Looking great. Maybe give the top wings some "shoulders" to round out the bulky/aggressive Raptor feel? Also, what program/technique are you using? I've never ended with anything near this but I've primarily stuck with vertex modeling keeping it in one contiguous wireframe... had some decent...

    Engineering a starfighter

    I've always thought of it as an odds game - if you spread your guns out over a wider area they are more likely to hit *something* even if not at full force. If you spread the long-range weapons out farther (WC 1/2 lasers, particle cannon on the Sabre) means that while you're not usually going...

    Need help with Saitek HOTAS setup

    Aginor hit it in one - the profiler software should be able to assign which axis is reported as rudder. If that doesn't make it work you could try assigning keystrokes to the twist function, and see if that will put the pedals through as the rudder control. Worst case, mapping the roll keys to...

    New Wing Commander after Secret Ops

    Make one or assist with making one? Or play Standoff. Or both.

    USB joystick not detected by WC3 in Dosbox 0.74. Another 64 bit issue??

    I've had no luck with DOSBox and joysticks using Win7 X64 and two different Saitek sticks - the stick is recognized, buttons work, but calibration goes bad and recalbrating doesn't seem to work. It's supposed to be "calibrate in Windows, go" but this is unfortunately not for everyone. You...

    Help Remembering a Spacefight Scene

    Unless your credit agency or bank automatically blocks overseas transaction it should be easy. Even if they do, it was cleared up with a quick telephone call in my case and I imagine yours would be similar.

    Help Remembering a Spacefight Scene

    Darkmage: :) Obee: Not really. Most of the FS1 and FS2 campaigns have been remade under the open-source banner including model, and IIRC the content itself was either made open or "left open for interpretation" - not that it matters, since the core game was frustratingly terrible and the...

    Help Remembering a Spacefight Scene

    Why does GoG.com have an open-sourced game up for $6? /edit: a better question might be why is there no Wing Commander on there yet?

    Dragon Vs Vampire

    The stock Tigershark has most of the attributes of the Dragon already... give it uprated shields and a couple of light torpedos under the wings and you would have a viable replacement for fleet combat (especially given that you could carry at least four, perhaps as many as 12 Tigersharks in the...

    WC inspired skin for IL-2 Sturmovik: Forgotten Battles

    Still cool even if not directly WC. Are you thinking about doing one for the Thunderbolt or Hellcat?
