He probably Shut Down to MS-DOS Mode or something.

I got my Academy CD for free. "Borrowed" it from school... It's a CD of like 10 older EA games that came with the Soundblaster Multimedia Kits (SB16/4xCD) they bought to upgrade computers 6 years ago. They had a box of like 20, and they aren't allowed to play games on the computers anyway, so I...

Exactly. Although if we are successful, working out the deal for the source might take a little while.

Yes, but not after the Movie. To me that seamed to be an intentional attempt to kill WC. As a space/sci-fi movie it was okay, but as a Wing Commander movie it stunk.

I got two copies of Priv Gold EA Classic for..let me look..3.99 each. And a copy of Armada EA Classic for $1.87 The same day I got a copy of Mechwarrior 2 Mercs 3dfx Edition for $0.99 (who says you can't get anything for a doller!) I later found out that a used copy of KS sold at the same...

'tis a SB16/AWE32. Priv really liked that card, but I can't use it as the PC is my mothers now . I wish I had the card, I'd give up the couple extra features my AudioPIC (which is the same as a SB64-PCI) has for the DOS support.

Um...what does this mean?? Lack of customer support causes people to pirate games, and therefor have *no* customer service? I've found customer service to be very helpful in the past. Not that I normally have problems with games... Usually I'm the one providing support I get $20 doing PC...

I agree with Kris on the issue of the WC license. The guys at EA aren't *that* stupid as to sell the WC name. After the WC Movie, would you really WANT Roberts to have the WC name?

The letter will be sent. Money would be nice, but I think I can spare 33 cents... Or the online time needed to send it e-mail. It's just a matter of getting the last 100 sigs to meet 500 before it's sent

Hmmm.. Not it's not I tried. The same P-100 / SB16 ISA that loved WC1 hated WC2. I never did get the darn speech pak working, even in DOS Mode. And my current PC has an AudioPCI, and the DOS Legacy driver crashes with a "Memory Parity Error". No sound = no fun.

It didn't fail, it just sort of..stopped. A while back Pedro posted on here somewhere about finishing it, possibly as a smaller mod then originally planned. Personally, I'd like to see the things that were done released as a resource for other modmakers.

Well, I need a vid card with a TV-out, but I'm sure I can find someone who has one to work with. Good thing is it could be done as a VHS even, as long as we didn't sell is commercially or anything..

Fellow WC Fans, The future of WC is in our hands. So what do we do with it? I've seen fan projects come and go, Unknown Enemy, the Fan Movie, and lots of WC mods. Recently I came up with the idea of making a fan WC Movie using the yet-incomplete WC mod for Homeworld..use TV-out to capture a...

Could you guys close this topic? There are much more constructive things to do then argue over something that we probably can't change short of buying the rights to WC... See my post under "This pisses me off...." for an explination of why i say this.

"Workarounds" Hmmm.. Hey, anyone got a 'backup' of KS I can borrow?? Thats a good workaround. Then again, we don't pirate WC games. Takes away money from EA.. Wait, they don't want my money!!! I'm not insane... 1 years ago I found the perfect game. WC3 touched my life like no game ever has...

US Navy Fighters was one of first few games made by Jane's. It is a part of Janes Fighters Anthology, which also includes Janes ATF and all the add-ons for those games in one easy-to use interface. There are loads of copies of Fighters Anthology EA Classic at both my local game stores.. And the...

For the record, Prophecy Gold stopped production last year and so it's possible no copies exist. Plenty of copies of plain Prophecy exist, and it's in EA's Sci-Fi Bundle along with Blade Runner and Dune 2000 for the cheap price of $19.99. [This message has been edited by Jumper (edited June 27...

How about this, this is a way to help.. Everyone e-mail PC Gamer and say how much you enjoyed the WC1 KS on the PCG CD..and say that you would like to see Wc2 also. If they put WC2 on the PCG CD, I'd be happy. So would lots of others. At least in the US.

[b] I'm not, and a lot of people are not either. Seams that the people who already have it don't care about helping those of us who don't get it for the same reasonable price that you might have paid when it first came out. Most WC fans, at least that I've talked to, got it then. It's just us...

Anyone interested in creating a Coalition for Lower KS Prices? Perhaps do a little digging into these auctions, see if sellers are jacking prices??
