    I'm able to get Privateer up and running, but I... can't do anything in my ship O_o

    You can use CTRL+D to blow up your ship and get back to the main menu, from where you can load a saved game.

    Run All Old WC Games in DOSBox Walkthrough

    Weird thing is though: if you alt-tab out of dosbox, in the other window is says something like "can't run in simple mode, switched to normal mode"

    Run All Old WC Games in DOSBox Walkthrough

    Thanks for all the great info, thanks to the settings by THE_WUQKED I got Privateer to run again! :D The reason I'm posting though is to suggest setting the core setting to "simple" for me that solved the problem of the intro movie crashing and the game seems to run a bit better as well. Could...

    FreeLancer planned for Xbox

    FreeLancer sounds very, very interesting, the most Privateeresque game since Privateer. I hope that when (if) it finally does come out that it supports keyboard though. That was one of my biggest peaves (appart from getting it to run) of Priv 2.

    Privateer Screechy Sound

    I had a similar problem recently. All the sound was perfect, except when I fired my guns. It didn't matter if I fired my tachyon or mass drivers. Rebooted and everything worked perfectly again, still don't know what went wrong that one time, weird.

    Privateer 1

    Have you tried running it without sound? A lot of the problems I had with getting Privateer 1 to run was with the sound card. Please check if this might be the problem by turning the sound off.

    Priv2

    Fraid not. There is a patch that helps to prevent the game from crashing when landing (although this still happened to me). However this does not make it playable in Win95. Like you said, there is a version, I beleive is called Privateer 2 Gold, that you can run in Win95/98. I've never...

    Privateer to RF savegame conversion

    Darkmage, you're right!!! I feel like such an idiot!! I've probably played RF 5 or 6 times, but I've always started from scratch, however this time since I wanted to play priv and rf back to back I wanted to import my priv game for the first time. Thanks!!

    Privateer to RF savegame conversion

    Hi, I just finished Privateer (again!! :) ) Now I'd like to continue on and play RF again as well. However instead of starting over I'd like to continue on with my save game from Priv. I've copied it from .sav to .prs. The problem occurs whenever I look at my cargo manifest, probably due to...

    if you could design a wing commander game

    Too bad.... Another option that could be included in a possible new Priv/WC game: the ability to hire more than one wingman, for those truly difficult missions, although they solved that problem partly in P2 with the Nuke'em

    if you could design a wing commander game

    Actually, I never paid attention, but did you still have to pay your wingman, if they died, that would be cool: finish a mission, then callously turn your guns on your loyal servants!! HAHAHAHA!!!! ;)

    if you could design a wing commander game

    Hey, you could still have the sexy wingman, like in P2, you just don't have to give a rats ass wheather they survive the fight, plenty fish in the sea.

    WCIV: DVD

    Why didn't they release the game on DVD as well, if there's such an improvement? They already put in all the work to make it, why not sell it? Sometimes Origin policy doesn't make too much sence to me.

    Privateer 2 Cheats

    Yeah... I can understand that. That's why I was hoping somenone could give me the name of a good newsserver. I've had no problems logging on to the creative one for example. But I can't find one for Origin or EA.
