Thanks much- I didn't realize there were separate in-flight options. (But I guess I should have since X-Wing did a similar thing.)

I'm just starting WC III for the first time ever, and I've seen several mentions of difficulty levels in the forums and other places. But, I can't find anyplace in the game to set it, nor can I find any mention in the manual. I'm playing the DOS version. Is it a KS-only thing, or am I blind?

Just saw this today, as I'm searching for answers to my WC3/Dosbox problems. I would guess that that message came about because mscdex isn't configured properly. I don't know how to do that with VDMS off hand, but I'm guessing that's what it has to be because I got the same error message when...

Can you believe all the stuff we used to know and forgot? QEMM, Stacker, getting the right combination of drivers into high memory to free up as much of that precious 640K of conventional memory as possible, etc. Windows may be bloated, but some things are definitely easier now.

That makes sense. And it does serve to keep it from being too easy and make it reminiscent of WWII dive bombers or torpedo aircraft.

Cool! I did not know that. WC is the only thing I've played on my PC since I discovered DosBox!

Sub Command is about the only thing I've played in recent years, and 688(I) before it. I used to play a little bit of Harpoon, and a LOT of Red Storm Rising in the '89 timeframe or whenever it was that it came out. (Too bad it will only run in real DOS!) Back a couple of years from that, I...

My one trip to Salt Lake City, I found the laws humorous but not really too bad. As I recall, it cost us $5 to have one person in my party join the "club" (which is really just a normal bar) for a year, and that person could bring something like 5 "guests" in with them at any time. Oklahoma...

To hijack this thread a bit, which races do you like to play in Starcraft/Brood War? I like the Terrans best, also like the Protoss, and really, really don't like the Zerg. I ended up never making it through the last mission of Brood War because it was so hard and I didn't feel like trying any...

Hah. Very funny. ;) I actually, shall we say, "proved by analysis that I can beat the mission." I started playing it again now that my frustration has died down after a week or so away and a few SO2 missions, and got to the point where I was making torpedo runs with some regularity. With the...

I'm wondering if the reason that not many posted recently is that the main link to the forums was broken. I didn't realize they were actually still on line until I saw the list of topics changing (duh on my part). Thanks for the hard work getting us back going.

Well, my first go at this reply got deleted when they brought the backup on-line (btw for the admins, the reason hardly anyone posted is probably because the forum link in the tool bar was wrong, and gave the impression the forums were down), and I don't feel like typing it all in again, but I...

That, and running into me. I'm currently fighting through the last one (for the first time), and I don't know how many times they've run into me. I've run into Hobbes or Bear a few times, too, but I wonder how they managed to pass flight school. Any more ideas on those Fralthra? In many, many...

Thanks very much.

I actually had to add it as "loadfix -32" to only use 32kb. When I just did "loadfix", the game told me I didn't have enough memory. Thanks very much for the help, and no apology necessary; it's only been a couple of hours since my first post! Since the loadfix is working, I've gone back...
