    Confederation

    Just FYI we are adding a "classic" mode with support for the original artwork. It's basic at the moment only replacing the ship models, but long term it should look pretty indistinguishable from the original. We don't have any designs on supporting the old momentum free flight model that only...

    Digital Antiquarian Explores WC4 (May 18, 2023)

    I agree with your sentiment; pushing an area like FMV was absolutely on brand, and that choice is why it's my favourite game of all time. I don't think it's right to say they *should* have, but there was definitely more to do in 3D if they wanted to, especially for a franchise known for pushing...

    Confederation

    I knew it as Refpack; the source that everyone references for it was actually released here on the CIC on one of the dev CDs. Probably not a lot of cross over if you're converting to a scripting language; we are using C++ and the engine has support for scripting languages, but that's not the...

    Confederation

    This is really neat; it's actually the same approach we've been taking the WC4 remake (although we've obviously been focused on the WC3/4 formats). Whilst we've reverse engineered pretty much everything on PC from missions to comms as LOAF says if you've done any work with the PSX comm videos...

    Wing Commander 1 (KS/WCDX) Loader & Voice Over Mod

    This is amazing, this will definitely be my fan project of the year!

    WC4 Remake

    There's progress in two areas, hopefully we will have updates soon. That said life has been pretty hectic for me at home and at work so it's been slow going since the demo. ODVS is in a similar position. I'm treating this as a long term project, working on it when I have the time so progress has...

    Free to a loving home - my WC collection

    My parents are in the U.K. and could ship them onto me at a later date. Are you looking to send them all to one person or willing to break them up? If the latter if you give the specifics of what you have I can tell you which I would add to my display and which would be better off elsewhere as...

    In-flight combat gameplay of Privateer 2

    Odd, I find P2s mouse control with a virtual stick essentially to be the most unusable. To me WCP had the best (which was certainly close to Freelancer). In real terms they're the same (minus the inversion) but the mouse pointer is a lot easier to keep track of than the little mini sliders in...

    WC4 cutscenes only black and white

    I haven’t tested but I did report it to nvidia and it was happening on another game so i think there’s a good chance they will have resolved it. Edit: Just tested with the latest drivers, it is indeed fixed.

    Wing Commander Technical Manual?

    Probably the wing commander bible, link here: https://www.wcnews.com/archives/ A lot of it was made canon with the movie tie-in novel "Confederation Handbook"

    WC4 Set Revelation Comes to Light (December 16, 2022)

    I remember it being pretty noticeable even first play through; but also I was used to that kind of thing. In that era most sci-fi would keep reusing the same corridors.

    Yeah, bad timing there. I think if it had come after episode 1 the worry about comparisons with the original trilogy might have been viewed as opportunities.

    Read About Ginger Lynn's Other Profession (December 4, 2022)

    At the time I didn't like his Maniac that much, but I was more familiar with WC3 onwards at the time. He feels more like the WC1 take on the character - so given the setting that’s no bad thing. The main thing that still sticks out is his openly being buddies with Blair rather than rivals with...

    I’m not sure you can call any Marvel property an unknown at that time in history. The tomorrow war might have been a fair comparison if it had gotten a theatrical release. It’s getting a sequel (but then so did Guyver). In any case I’m not saying Hamill would be a box office draw - I just...

    Read About Ginger Lynn's Other Profession (December 4, 2022)

    I mean I think you can have Hamill open a movie, more so than I would ever believe you could have Shatner lead a movie. Keeping a (truly truly awful) actor to please the fan base wasn’t unprecedented. The size of said base is the main factor there. Wing Commander was never going to attact the...

    Maybe, but with Luke Skywalker you atleast have some Star Wars crossover. And a million people going to see a movie may not save it, but a million (or whatever fraction put their voice out there) championing it could certainly set the tone. Still, I think Prinze is a better Blair than Holland is...

    Complete WC GOG fixes and tweaks

    Here is my modified version of the dvd dll - I can't imagine it fixing anything other than super wide but give it a go.

    WC4 cutscenes only black and white

    I don't know what to tell you, 522.25 worked for me, and I just tried re-upgrading (to 526.47) and now it was black and white again; so it's definitely that for me.
