Apologies if that was a technically inaccurate comment. I was referring to the higher resolution the game now runs at.
Feel free to correct me on any issues because Im very much a casual when it comes to this sort of thing and there will be absolutely no offence taken.
I can now play WC4 gog...
Just tried this out. Loving those black backgrounds in WC3. Combined with the hi res textures this is a game changer. Great stuff and very much appreciated
Very interesting. All these years and I never thought to try that in WC3. I agree, the Victory looks wonderful there. The textures in WC3 have not aged well especially if your playing with the blue background. My default way of playing WC3 these days is with the Direct Draw patch with the black...
86Box sounds interesting, first I've heard of it. Sounds like it could do something for the backgrounds in Starlancer. I messed around with the Voodoo glide wrapper with various settings but I can never get those backgrounds to look quite right. Still plays very well though.
Yea, I noticed there was an update for these 3 titles when I logged into gog a few days ago. For WC 1&2 the initial startup dos menu has changed from yellow/green to white/purple and you can now run the classic dos setup programs. I think it may have changed the conf files as my mt32 munt sound...
I remember seeing that same WC4 stand when my mother brought me to pc world in 96. I would have been 12 years old at the time. They had pc's set up and running wing commander 4 that you could actually play. I remember seeing the intro and thinking that the lead actor looks very familiar. When I...
This gets me to thinking about an Easter egg that you found on the ship selection screen on WC3 (pc) that showed various stats some of which were inaccurate to the overall lore. Still a fun thing tho. With Easter almost here, could you remind me how to access this?
If S42 receives high praise from the 'gaming journalists' of the world and is highly successful in terms of sales (some might say the latter has already been achieved), one would wonder if it will see a console release at some point. Perhaps not this gen.
I only bring this up cause it's been a...
The space combat feels like a tacked on feature.
It's functional but feels so incredibly flat. The targeting system sucks but the combat is usually so easy you don't need it anyway.
It's not terrible but it really does get old fast. The occasional skirmish with crimson ships in very small and...
Spent some hours on it recently and found it to be one of the most boring games ever (with the exception of the terror morph stuff - that was actually quite good). But one good quest line isn't enough to recommend a £70 game that consists of mostly pure fluff.
The only good space game I've...
The intro to Strike Commander CD ROM version, the one that includes the expansion pack, features Russian migs I believe. I think Strike Commander may be the game you seek
