Space Sim First Look: Evochron Legends
Evochron Legends is the latest free-form, Privateer-style space combat game from Star Wraith 3D. Players can explore a seamless universe, trade, mine, transport, escort and engage in combat in order to earn funds to customize the look and performance of their ship. Many of the features that players requested have been added in this latest game, including an all-new military track. The multiplayer component of the game has also been upgraded from previous releases. Other titles in the Star Wraith universe include RiftSpace, Arvoch Conflict, Evochron Alliance and Evochron Renegades. Visit the Legends website for a full list of features, more screenshots and a trailer.

Making the Game: HUD Vampire 2
... and here's the updated Vampire HUD, with the addition of the Thunderbolt backdrop and some changes to the instrument layout.
These updates are thanks to John "Captain Johnny" Guentzel, who provided several CD image archives of material used by the Wing Commander Prophecy development team!
Please note that the "Download" link points to an older-style Visio file; these do not open in Microsoft's current Visio viewer. We have converted the VSD into a graphic which can be viewed by clicking on the document thumbnail.
