    More Tripe from the Blogosphere (February 19, 2011)

    The blog comments are really funny. Seems like we're not the only ones to notice the author's slapdash style and fraction-of-a-second research...

    WC3 and WC4 Demo Problems

    Could you please note the exact error message? "max tre files 8 exceeded" doesn't ring any bell, except a faint suspicion of the old DOSbox issue of defining too much memory.

    New Wing Commander after Secret Ops

    I don't own an Xbox either, but so what? Consoles are around to make gaming sociable, to hang out with friends and play against each other. In my group of pals, we have the PS3 guy, the Xbox guy, the Wii guy (me), and we get together lugging the consoles around, discussing technology and...

    Heart of the Tiger inapropiate?

    We all believe that it is a title of honor. I don't really buy in to that. Naming Blair "Heart of the Tiger" would be like calling Thrakhath (or rather more fittingly, Melek) "Head of the Ape" (..or-whatever-simian-like-creature-you-guys-have-on-Kilrah). I understood it the same way as Toast...

    Smithsonian Snubs Space Sims (February 17, 2011)

    Many entries in the comment board are asking for the reasons for the very limited and sometimes senseless selection - and most of them are insightful, well-formulated and fun to read. I guess the academic reception of video games as an art form, as good as that move may be, still has a lot to...

    New to wing commander 2 questions

    Some of the inconsistencies in Privateer Gemini Gold are caused by the VegaStrike game engine the remake is based on. The plan was to do a full conversion and have all the features of the original Privateer work in shiny new graphics, but in some cases work is not fully done. The ship dealer...

    Privateer 2 ger/eng differences

    I'm guessing that NHK is "Netzwerk für Handel & Kommunikation", and I further guess that it was adapted due to political correctness issues. KK is the usual german officialese abbreviation for nuclear plant (Kernkraftwerk), and KKN designates the former nuclear plant "Niederaichbach" - which...

    Famous Flight Suit Now For Sale (February 9, 2011)

    Since LOAF or Joe will (hopefully) outbid anyone anyway... ...here's you flightsuit pattern, darkmage: http://thegreenpepper.com/downloads/142web.pdf (Just the ad, they still want to sell it) Needs some accessorizing, but that's not too difficult (you can see the patched-on clasps on George's...

    You're Invited to Mindy's Release Party! (February 9, 2011)

    Too bad Chicago is a bit of a long drive for me... - and the question's not even that hard ;) C'mon guys, go meet the lady. I guess she'll laugh if you bring your WCP box to sign..

    Shotglass' Lego Bar Just the Beginning (January 25, 2011)

    Amazing work! I'd love to see some "behind the scenes" shots of the whole diorama setup, but that would spoil the illusion ;) Oh, to have the time to do a Lego stop-motion movie in that....

    Hey Maverick, sure is quiet around here...

    Someone said my name? Uh, no ;) Danr, you can play around with the webstats counter on the front page (left column, green icon below links), it shows some amazing things - among them a bump in the usual bleed cycle for game sites: While usually a game community loses around 10% activity for...

    Little Lights on Starship's sides

    Every time I come here I am amazed about the depth of knowledge that has been reached about everything wingcommandery, and every time, albeit a casual but regular fan of the series, I feel like a newbie. What question can be raised that does not have a factual, documented and checked answer...

    Suggest a Movie!

    I felt a little steampunky the last couple of nights, so I watched: Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow - reminds me of Crimson Skies and Strike Commander, while staying pure comic book style Rocketeer - same line, a bit more geeky than heroic, but has its charm The League of Extraordinary...

    Kilrathi Female Model WIP

    I see, some rather obvious but tricky problems have been, umm, embraced. Good one :) But I'm still interested in the storyline/diorama ideas you were hinting at earlier - what will that be, a kind of illustrated novel?
