I think wcnews itself is and has been the most important thing going on for Wing Commander. Pioneer, assuming it eventually gets finished, is probably second. I can't talk for anyone else, but I'd rather play a finished Pioneer than EA replay, Saga, GG, or Standoff.

Will the weapons on the MFD's change when the weapons on the ship do?

If you want to make the camel look bigger, make that cockpit smaller. It's absolutely *huge* compared to the fighter cockpit, and the cockpit really serves as a point of reference for size. I suppose if the ship is big enough you could also add some windows... now that would make it look bigger.

Hmmm, looks great! I suspect the reason why Plasteel likes the loading screens better is because you aren't using any AA in the new screenshots.

I don't make it a point to memorize every specific rule on every forum that I post on. In any case, I have PMed Chris on the matter. Again, sorry for violating your rule.

I wasn't trying to be an asshole to you, and I didn't know about rule number 9. I apologize. I will PM Chris then (assuming I'm not banned first) and perhaps the section of posts that violates rule 9 should be removed?

For asking a question?

I'm asking Chris, not you.

In that case, Chris, why do Brad's actions warrant a permanent ban? Is there something else Brad did, because to me it seems that brad just got a little bit aggressive in defending his point of view -- something that I think just about everyone on this board has been guilty of in the past if we...

Permanently?! That seems a bit harsh. I could understand a temp ban, but a permanent ban for someone who is a huge contributer to the community and is involved in a fan project? It seems to me that the punishment doesen't fit the crime. As for scoops/autopilot speed, I like the idea. But I...

Wow, neato! Have you thought about a module that can attach two central modules together, for really huge stations?

Weird, I've seen a couple Dell laptops that don't. Good to know that the (seemingly) majority will. Lenovo, actually :)

Actually, no. All laptops are now widescreen (mainly 16:10, some 16:9), while CRT's are in general all 4:3. Since you loose size from the aspect ratio a 15.4" laptop should actually end up smaller than the 15" CRT. Anyway, another thing to make sure of is that the laptop has a button for...

Cool, application sent.

Mr. radar

Yeah, I remember that feeling all too well! I'd probably still want the health meter myself (especially for multiplayer) but it's an interesting idea. Easy enough to test out too; just place a sticky-note over top that area of your display.

Actually, so called 'realistic' shooters have been doing that for quite a while now. Most FPS games use damage percentage and you're delusional if you think that is going to change any time soon. To be fair though, there have been awesome games which have used either method, take HL or Deus ex...

Maybe include the smaller videos by default, while making the .mve's available for seperate download (just in case there are codec issues) would work?

I think I should add that the decision of whether to go for a numbers or color representation of damage is a fundamental gameplay decision for a space sim, and probably depends, in part, to what the space sim is aiming for. For example, try as hard as I might I can't possibly imagine playing...

...and Dosbox does have a mouse sensitivity setting. Alternatively, just try a different mouse.
