    Wing Commander Games and Windows XP - A Summary

    Hah! Don't know what happened but the game is working...just trying to figure out how to get the setup program to reconize my mouse and joystick. I can use them on the menu screens in-game but not in-flight because Setup.bat doesn't pick them up for some reason. I'm running it in Win95...

    Wing Commander Games and Windows XP - A Summary

    Yes I am. The problem seems to be that it's not reading the CD-ROM. Any other games I play work fine but for some reason WC4 really doesn't want to. I'm getting pretty frustrated cause it runs smooth and perfect until it goes to load the first flying sequence. Then it suddenly stops and gives me...

    Wing Commander Games and Windows XP - A Summary

    I did mount my hardrive. And actually, after playing around a little, I got WC4 to run straight from windows XP but it crashes when it goes to load the first flight sequence after the opening movies I get a message saying "Application files could not be found on the local hard drive or on any CD...

    Wing Commander Games and Windows XP - A Summary

    Okay, everyone says to install the Win95 patch for WC4 and I plan on that, but I can't get through the game install. When I finish the going through the system tests, sound tests, etc. and go to actually install the files it crashes and tells me "Not enough space on drive for Swapfile. There...

    any new information

    Any guess on how long til the demo's available? I'm sure you don't have anything specific, but are we looking at days, weeks, months, etc? I'm very hyped about this project and just eager for any morsel you guys throw out there! Thanks for investing so much of your time and talent! You guys...

    WCKS in WinXP, music/timing issues

    Well that sucks, but I guess you get what you pay for, eh? Now that I know I can play on DosBox I guess I'll just track down a new copy. The last time I tried dosbox it was v.60 and I couldn't get it to work right. v.63 is pretty easy and D-Fend makes it even easier. Anyway, thanks for the input!

    WCKS in WinXP, music/timing issues

    BTW, just so no one gets mad at me for downloading WC -1 and -2...I want you all to know that I have an original copy of WC -1 and -2 on floppy but WC1 is on 5 1/4" disks (which of course I have no disk drive for and haven't for about 10 years now) and one of my disks (Disk 5 to be exact) for...

    WCKS in WinXP, music/timing issues

    It came from http://www.the-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ and they have a copy of it, sans-WC3. Anyway, all the correct files are there and the game plays perfectly, the music just won't play. I was just wondering if anyone knew about this and if so, if there's a fix.

    WCKS in WinXP, music/timing issues

    Okay. Just got installed WCKS in WinXP and everything is decent, if not exactly perfect, with one HUGE exception...I don't have any music at all. The sound effects work perfectly with both WC1 and WC2 but there's no music at all, not even a little stutter. The music was the soul of the game...

    Privateer Remake 1.0 - Bugs

    I was in Perry, jumped to Midgard and was tractoring in a Dralthi that was sitting at a jump point (to Rikel) when I suddenly TRACTORED IN THE JUMP BUBBLE!! Apparently they're only worth 170 credits at the nearest base as space salvage! Other than that and a few other things that others have...

    Favorite Ships

    Already did and left a post. Congrats on a job well done. The Raptor to me is like the Harrier in real life...a lot of people want to call it ugly, but I find it gorgeous!

    Favorite Ships

    Okay, I'm sure it's been done before, but just out of curiosity...what do we love around these parts? Personally I would go with the Raptor for its looks, armament, and armor. I was never afraid of a Gratha in that tub and it was the only ship that I didn't get nervous about fighting Jalthi...

    Who loves the Raptor?

    Lol me too. Except that I would complete a mission and get to the TC and for the longest time I didn't realize you had to open you ComLink to land. I would get to the ship and eject. It was the coolest thing ever when I finally figured out how to land! Pretty sad, eh? But hey, I was 9...
