I think the real benefit of the higher-res sprites would be not so much for the fighters but the capships. No more flying into a wall of pixels when you get close - exciting!

Thats incredible! WC2 in high-res - well, sort of.. ;) Wonderful job HCl!

Well, judging from the sprite pack it's unfortunately not possible because only a 180 degree rotation is rendered. The other side are the same images, just mirrored.

Enjoying right now! The Sabre is a real beauty! I think that was always my favourite WC fighter, not because of the firepower but because of the wonderful design...and the firepower :D So when can I sit in it? ....and maybe take her for a ride? ;)

Haha! Looks fantastic! Would be fun to have a WC3 remake in WC1 style.

The name of the officer saluting you when you enter the bridge sounds also familiar: BLAIR :)

Does this mean that the adventure part of the game has been dropped? ...and about this 4km monster - in WC 1 & 2 it was always like flying against a wall of pixels when you got too close to a capital ship or a base - won't this be happening here too, especially by a ship of that size? Or do...

I think you should check out Howards first post in his SciFi-Meshes thread. He talks about the game, the story and the game-engine. This should answer most of your questions. Here's the link again: http://www.scifi-meshes.com/forums/showthread.php?77919-Wings-of-Saint-Nazaire-(Game-Art)-Large-Images

Bad news - as far as I know WC Pioneer is pretty dead. The good news - Howard is working on a similiar project where a lot of progress is happening - You can find a trailer of it here: http://www.wingsofstnazaire.com/ ...and more of it in his modelling thread on Scifi-Meshes here...

Impressive! That's probably the most beautiful Hornet I've ever seen! Just keep boring us with stuff like that ;)

There are actually 3 more parts of this interview on Matt Chat - should be some of the previous episodes and one more to come next week. They are just basically about games and his work - no Wing Commander but still very interesting. I don't know the episode numbers by heart - unfortunately...

I know it wasn't you flying, Tolwyn :D . You would never fly using a mouse, right?

I did. Looks truly amazing! In the first one you can see the animated intro and a part of the first mission, which is continued in the second video. In the third and forth video you get to watch bigger battles against some bigger enemies. Unfortunately the guy flying seems equally experienced as...

I am looking forward to this game as I was to the original games, Unknown Enemy and Standoff. Who cares how long it was in development??? It's a fan-made FREE game and it's coming this year. I think that's all what should matter for a Wing Commander fan!

Ah, finally :) Downloading now...unfortunately I have to wait until tonight to play it...waiting is so ugly ;)

Just downloaded it -works perfect. BTW - great document and superb quality - Thx!

I agree that the quality improvement would be insignificant. What I was actually aiming for since a lot of people here are asking for different region codes is that most companies don't use the region code system on Bluray, which means no concerns about that - just one version, all episodes on...

That's really awesome news! Any chance for a bluray version?

Now this looks really really nice! Can't wait to see it in color :)

Well, I think it's cool that it get's preserved and won't get lost. Which brings us to the point why they don't want the code to become public - it's more than 20 years old by now...
