Oh wait it works!!! Must be something to do with winxp. Ok sorry I'll use tech support section next time. The problem I had originally was under win98. I'll outline the problem I had in case anyone cares, but I don't. woohoo! (I actually hadn't tried playing it since I got xp which was...

Does anyone know how to get sound working on a Winxp system that's absolutely impossible to configure in Dos?

Well I'd sell my WC books to increase availability, except the covers are only still on three of them (wear and tear). No I still wouldn't sell them. More WC novels please! We'll buy anything! We're desperate!

plus i did read a large number of the novels when i was 12-15, so my standards may have been considerably lower.

agree re: Anderson and Jeter. Read Rusch though. One novel, but class. And Zahn and Stackpole wrote enough novels between them to make the EU a cool thing. Amazed you like Perry though. I thought some of his writing made me want to gag (page 42 I think, about them 'all liking luke'). Also don't...

on EU, it's a matter of opinion Lehah ;) sales figures might argue otherwise (although admittedly the pulbic are idiots). Have you read Crispin, Rusch, Wolverton or Kube-MacDowell?

BTW anyone else here love Freedom Flight? I thought it captured WC1 feel absolutely flawlessly. Good background for the game too. I reckon FF doesn't get the accolades it deserves. End Run definitely my favourite though.

He must have announced it in the last six months, because that's the only possible time I might have missed it with A-levels and all. For the proof that Zahn named Coruscant, http://www.starwars.com/eu/feature/20000807/index.html near the end of the page. The Mara Jade thing would surprise me...

"George Lucas has recently said the Star Wars books are not part of the canon Star Wars Universe. The only books that are the movie novelizations. The Star Wars books USED to be canon, but not anymore. So pretty much are published fan fiction now, like the Star Trek books." That's news to...

Or just men in jumpsuits, as may have been standard when travelling in a transport. Not much alternative wear to jumpsuits other than fleet uniform (unlikely) and marine gear (they wouldn't be marines).

hey I think you're talking about my site! wow.

that's what I think anyway. My universe is happy without the movie to complicate things.

There's a copy of End Run going on ebay at the moment for $5. Just thought people might want to know. I've already got mine.

re: FMV vs animated, I think that the acting in Prophecy was an example of a game being let down by bad acting (and scriptwriting come to think of it). I didn't think much of the young talent, and Hamill and Wilson kind of showed everyone up IMHO. The good thing about animation is that all you...

That actually was a pretty good answer. McCubbin probably just didn't know what he was talking about at the time. He made a WC guide, that doesn't make him the foremost authority on Wing Commander. I trust his opinion far less than I trust LOAF's. Even less than I trust my own. I don't see...

"Because he didn't know what the hell he was talking about. Much like yourself." Oh good one. I never looked at it like that before. Seriously, rational explaination? I'm thinking he must have had a reason. He isn't just going to say that off the cuff. It's a pretty well structured...

"No, you miss the point. He wasn't told, "Make sure you're accurate with the movie. Oh and by the way, It's not really part of the WCU, it just shares the name." He was probably told, "Write a book. You have a month."" Then provide a rational explaination for why he said that it was...

Surprisingly enough, I singled out KrisV since he was the last to individually attempt to dismiss that I say. So please don't call my actions idiotic. "But I already claimed just that -- he is *not* in a position to decide whether or not his work is part of the Wing Commander Universe..."...

"hen you sign on this board, be prepared to respect people (esp Administrators! ) or get your IP addy banned. It's simple." I respect the administrators, thanks. However my point that they have no authority to judge what is right or wrong with regards to Wing Commander extends no further...

*big sigh* LOAF where have I ever said that someone is right or wrong? I'm not ego-festing. I've never figured that an online internet forum is exactly the place to boost my ego, thanks. Kris, on the other hand, is evidently egotistical enough to call me and others "wrong", which I resent and am...
