    Favorite WC Moment

    Did he really say that? :eek: Damn, somehow I missed that :(... when exactly did he say that?

    What's the Difference?

    I did not know about SWC before pics of it where shown in the CIC news some months ago... I'm quite confused about the VERY different opinions about SWC... so to get this straight: who played SWC on the 3DO/Mac, and what was better/worse compared to WC1 PC? And another question to those...

    Software Savings:- Priv 2 - hmmm

    Did you get the version that needs P90/win9x/DirectX5 or the DOS version? If you got the "DirectX-version", where did you buy it? Why I ask that: I'm from Germany and I'm searching for an online shop who still sells the "DirectX-version" and ships to Germany at an "acceptable" price...

    What's the Difference?

    I'm not sure how good the 3DO sold in the rest of the world, but in Germany it sold very bad and therefore it's almost impossible to catch one in Germany these days :( ... I would like to get one if it's not too expensive and only if it includes SWC or WC3 (are there more WC titles for it?)...

    why are add-ons always so difficult?

    I agree with you on SM1... I'm not sure about SM2: "a little easier" at best, perhaps even harder :( Anyway... good hunting!!! :)

    Favorite WC Moment

    I think (one of) my favorite moment(s) was when I first finished WC2... it took me dozens of tries... and some days later I found out about the cheat codes :mad: ... I know, I know, most of you perhaps don't like people who cheat, but especially in the add-ons for WC1 and WC2 I finally had...

    why are add-ons always so difficult?

    Especially in the add-ons for WC1 and WC2 I finally had spent SO MUCH TIME to succeed in some missions while still failing some others even after dozens of tries so that it always took me to the "bad outcome" in the end :mad: ... finally I was so frustated that I just wanted to see the "good...

    Command Keys in WC2

    IIRC, you first have to switch to the "rear view/turret", then try to press G or H to switch to "tractor beam mode", then you can "tractor" objects by pressing the "fire" button or "space". good luck Jochen

    Once Again...

    I agree with all of you, it's (almost) always the right thing to do all you can to get soldiers back home who risked their life for their country/nation/planet/race (I'm sure you know what I mean :)). And because of Tolwyn's behavior in SO1, SO2, End Run and Fleet Action it was very hard for...

    Kilrathi Saga

    It must have been between 92-94 when I played SO2 (don't remember, but it must have been at least a few months, if not even more than a year before WC3 came out and therefore I couldn't await the story to *continue*), so I don't remember: does it really have better graphics than the "normal...

    Kilrathi Saga

    Comparing the music is not that simple. KS does *not* support (General) Midi anymore and therefore the sound will not be very different no matter which soundcard you use with KS (if it's not a *very* old one). When comparing the "soundblaster sound" of the DOS games with KS, the DOS games...

    Possible plots for new WC games

    In my opinion, the next WC game should pick up the story where it ended (unfortunately, I never finished Secret Ops, but I expect the Nephilim to remain a threat), so another conflict with the Nephilim is what I would like most -> One vote for that answer BTW, sorry that I did not appear in...

    WC Project Online

    Unfortunately, some people had nothing better use for their spare time but to use your last thread to flame at each other so that TC (one of the moderators) had no choice but to do his job and close the Thread... Now for the subject of this Thread: Well, it sure would be great if a project...

    CH Products throttle pro usb button mapping needed.

    Perhaps you should try to search on CH's website...Saitek for example is offering much game profiles for their controllers on their website, "official" and "player created", perhaps CH is offering something like that, too

    A bit of amusement...

    Either "goodulant" is one of them, or you invented 8 new words :)

    I have a question...

    You might want to read Freedom Flight, there you will find many informations about them. If you don't know where to get it, check the CIC "where to buy" section at https://www.wcnews.com/wheretobuy.shtml

    Diablo Type Wing Commander RPG

    Diablo II is great! And Wing Commander is great, too! So how could a WC RPG based on Diablo be bad? :) Therefore, a clear "YES" from me!

    Privateer Re-Boots

    I see... Hmm, perhaps you could use 16384 instead of 4096, but still I don't get it why you must INCLUDE this area. How about trying to EXCLUDE it (X=E000-EFFF) ? Still increasing files and buffers could help. Which values did you try so far?

    Privateer Re-Boots

    Well, there are some things about your config.sys and autoexec.bat I don't understand: your line: device=a:\emm386.exe 4096 RAM I=E000-EFFF FRAME=E000 why not simply use device=a:\emm386.exe RAM perhaps including that RAM area E000-EFFF and limitating EMS to 4096k causes the problem...

    Theme music (complete)

    Again I have to say: When it's just about the (main) theme, I like WCM best. Because of the last poll, the first thing I did when I came home a few hours ago was listen to it again :D
