    Admiral Tolwyn- Madman or military savior?

    Actually, Hitler was not vegetarian. Goebbels started this rumor when Hitler would avoid certain kinds of meat for health reasons, because he thought it made him look more like an ascetic. Actually, vegetarians were persecuted in Hitler's Germany; vegetarian groups were disbanded, and their...

    WC4 nitpicks

    I found a continuity error in WC4. Notice there is a scene on that Border Worlds planet where Blair lands with Dekker's commando party. The doctor tells him that the virus looks for things like poor eyesight, etc. Sometime later, when Blair enters the Black Lance base, notice that man in...

    WC3 in WinXP : old patch?

    Hmm, apparently I have the new patch. Sorry to mislead, but the website posted was in French, and somehow I assumed it was the old patch.

    WC3 in WinXP : old patch?

    I just finished Wing Commander III. I used the old patch from the French site, and I have Windows XP, as I said before. If anyone still has complications, I will try to help in any way I can, but I don't know so much about today's computers, and their configurations. If anyone has an idea, or...

    WC3 in WinXP : old patch?

    I don't believe I am running this using any compatibility mode. What can I do to be sure? I tried playing for a little bit early this morning (I'm 1-2 missions away from disc 3) and now, I'm having problems with my joystick. The throttle is locked so that I go up automatically. It makes no...

    New Movie?

    I suppose the very simple fact is, the Wing Commander movie was not nearly as good as the cinema scenes from Wing Commanders 3 and 4 (I can't speak about Prophecy since I haven't acquired it yet). Mark Hamill, Tom Wilson, John-Rhys Davies, and Malcolm McDowell (of course, WC3+ original...

    WC3 in WinXP : old patch?

    Hey :) I'm already at the end of Wing Commander 3 Disc 2, and I haven't had a single crash or technical problem! I'm not sure why you're having problems now. You mentioned Windows 98, is that what you're using? The patch is working fine for me in XP. I'm sorry I only gave you sketchy details...

    Control option: mouse or keyboard?

    I'd use the mouse for movement and firing of weapons, keyboard for all those other things.

    WC3 in WinXP : old patch?

    Thanks for all your help throughout my ordeals, WUQKED :) Unfortunately, I've really lost touch with computers in recent years, so I probably wont be able to answer your questions all that precisely. I have a Dell Dimension 4550 MoBo: Not sure CPU: Intel PIV 2.00 Ghz RAM: 768 MB DDR...

    What will the Next WC Game Be?

    I agree with Manic. The people on the WC Saga project could recreate the missions in WC1 and 2, and the only abstract complication would be emulating the cinema scenes in between each mission. It could be done, but I imagine it would take some thinking.

    WC3 in WinXP : old patch?

    I installed the old patch last night. Everything seemed fine. Video working well, sound perfect, but TWO times, I crashed. Crashed BADLY. The first time, it took me one hour to quit the program and go back to windows. This is the 2nd time, and I'm on another computer. The old patch seems very...

    Any one have those sences from wc1 when you get into your ship?

    Did the SNES version have better graphics than the PC version?

    Best Looking Fighter

    For me, it's a tie between the Bearcat and the Dragon (both from WC4).

    New Movie?

    Question: Is the Wing Commander movie a thing of controversy amongst the fans here? Are there factions who love the movie, or do we all pretty much agree that the movie sucked?

    Fav WC game

    Wing Commander IV was my absolute favorite. My only complaint was that the game was too short. Call me a bad fan, but I've yet to play prophecy. I'm trying to get it on ebay.

    New Movie?

    I think I watched the film once, and I fell asleep after 45 minutes. I really hope they make a new game before making anything else. Hopefully Prophecy for Gameboy Advance was successful.
