    Wrap Your Video Card For Better Effects (August 19, 2005)

    Yeah, I forgot about that one... I think Eder did the right thing, 32-bit Direct3d is nice enough, no need for Glide.

    Morningstar and Mace missile tactics

    Fire it towards a bunch of Kamekhs (Sim mission 10, for instance). It is F-U-N!

    Sudden crashes

    But we all agree that WinME sucks, right? :p

    Wrap Your Video Card For Better Effects (August 19, 2005)

    It´s not that Standoff *can´t* support 3dfx... It had some minor glitches (mostly with textures) and Eder decided to scrap both 3dfx and Software modes from Standoff´s regular options. It can be turned on by tweaking stan_cfg.dll, I think... I wonder if the game would work correctly with this patch.

    Of course, we could fill those empty rooms with lots of people and plenty of cutscenes, but for that please report to my previous post on this thread.

    Nice work! (episode 2 spoilers)

    Try the nightmare setting. ;)

    Uh-oh, Sim glitch

    Fatcat, you have to disable sound acceleration on dxdiag.exe... But first try the anti-video-skipping patch on Standoff´s starting menu´s Options. Fleeballs, I´ll have to check that later for you.

    Suggestions for Standoff

    I bet there´s more cutscenes-per-episode in the upcoming chapters... but if you want the game to be finished in a reasonable time, it can´t be made like WC2´s one-after-every-mission. However, if you have ways to provide proper funding for the staff (beta testers included), Eder would...

    Athens plane crash.

    As a backup system, on an emergency, that´s better than NO one flying the plane (like the Greek 737)

    Athens plane crash.

    Manufacturers should program the autopilot to bring down the plane to 4000m automatically when there´s a decompression. Naturally, if the pilot is ok, he could disengage the autopilot and steer the plane himself. But the thing should be automatic at the first sign of problem.

    Uh-oh, Sim glitch

    Say that to Chris Roberts... You can kill Kamekhs with an Epee in WC2 :p

    Engine limitation question

    I think the cockpits already are as super as they can possibly get - on this engine.

    Don't be sad when the forum is so quiet...

    The Firekka only has Stilettos, Rapiers (M2 onwards) and Gladii at this point. Given the limited number of ships, there´s no point in flying Gladii on patrols, risking losing them and not having them available in the next mission.

    What bout the simulator?

    Yeah, Pierre is going to be so happy when he reads this :p But I still agree with Q on this one.

    Don't be sad when the forum is so quiet...

    The Firekka doesn´t even have a full fighter compliment yet, they are picking up ships here and there and awaiting supplies, so Bradshaw really has only TWO types of ships available... he will get to pick his ship when he has real options. Well, you said it yourself... it is the Engine´s...

    Standoff Episode 2 - certainly not disappointing

    Try starting a brand new game instead of flying the old missions in your mission history terminal...
  19. Starkey

    Wowee...

    No, in the campaign the fighter losses are almost always tracked.... You can´t change that. What you could do to minimize your losses is to find in your nav map which wingman is being chased by the most enemy ships, and fly to aid him... However, chances are high that you´ll always have 2-3...

    Unable to launch Prophecy in Win 2K

    SO (and thus Standoff) will not work on Win2000, or at least not without some work... Try the instructions on this thread: http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=16182
