Re: A few points... I am not sure of that. For instance roman were great engineers but very poor scientists. Furthermore, they were bad sailors (they even couldn't cross the mediteranean see in one time), and I think that it is earth exploration which gave Science it's "acceleration".

No I mean extended memory compatible with the old 286 ! When you had dos, there was two kinds of extended memory : ems (286) and xms (386). Now of course win95-98 is using the 32 bit mode. As far as I know no game using XMS (via an old "driver" called dos4gw, or something like that) can run...

:o Hehe ! Nice Pic ! Your meshe and your texures are very good ! Well done ! Do u mind if I ask you a few questions ? ;) How long did you work on this ship ? What kind of soft did you use ?

No it's for win. Actually I run WC1 under Win98 and I have no pbs. I remember that when I installed win95 years ago, wc1 and 2 didn't run. But now it works well. You must have ems.

I use CPUKiller (it's a shareware) and WCI is slow enough to play. In fact, on the Claw, the mouse cursor is very, very slow. But in flight, it runs well !

I liked the kilrathi theme in wc2. But now my three favourites are : WC4 - Confronting Tolwyn, War Averted, Tolwyn's Death WC3 - Intro WC2 - Cutscene 1 By the way I remember the first time I saw the WC2 Intro (where we first hear the Kilrathi theme). Wahoo, it really was like a movie ...

I regret that you can't fly in battles involving four or five carriers + their escort ships and fly groups. I liked Xwing VS Tie Fighter for that. I mean that for me, giant battles are missing in Wing Co. The only one we have (but I can be wrong) is the final battle in Prophecy, the one near...

If entiere worlds were slaughtered, the casualties must have been very high ! Nevertheless I don't expect the density of population to be very high on every confed worlds. I mean in the few centuries of space colonization, mankind couldn't have the time to grow so much that it reached so many...

Yes you're right ! Know I remember. But netbios is above ipx so you have to launch ipx first. And of course all of these drivers use memory :(

I played it multiplayers years ago... If I remember well it works with an ipx driver. I don't remember having any difficulties. Maybe some low memory pbs, but it was dos... It was great ! I loved the kilrathi cloaked fighter ! :D

I don't know if it is related to this fog, but when I played Prophecy for the first time with my voodoo1, there was some kind of pink fog, when flying in a nebula. That was beautiful (I find), but because of the limited visibility it was harder to fly. Now I use D3D, and there no fog anymore in...

Did you notice that during the old good time, you had to possess an up to date PC. I mean when WC2 came out I had to run it on a 386DX25 with at least 4MB of extra ram and a Sound Blaster :) . It was very expensive. The same thing when I bought Ultima Underworld. Now, fortunatly, no game...

Well, I have the most respect for WWI aces. The performances of their planes were very poor and they often risked to lose the control. Furthermore, the reliability of the engine (at the beginning) wasn't very good. I understand easily that you became an ACE with only five kills (30' of flying...

Maybe your right. I've heard (don't remember his name)of a German pilot who had 137 kills ! He finished the war flying a me262.

Don't you think the Kilrathi have some kind of Academy too ? I mean, piloting a starfighter shouldn't be easy and everyone has to train a lot before handeling one. Furthermore I think it is a great mistake to waste the pilots. Look at WWII. Near the end, germans had very good planes (not many...

The one I like the best is the Tiger's Claw. Maybe because it's the first one ! I like the Concordia too. The Midway is OK, but looks too "classical" for me. All the Nephilim's big Cap Ships look terrific ! They have a pretty different design and they are frightening !

This make me wonder one thing. If in the traitors are killed in wc, why wasn't blair killed when he was convinced to be one in wc2 ? Maybe there was no proofs or something ?

You can use this pic as you want. If I wanted to keep it only for myself, I wouldn't have posted it here. ;) What is the adress of your page ? [Edited by Sadic on 04-29-2001 at 15:12]

WC Universe sounds good to me. And as it is an original game, It will be better with an original title !
