    Need some tech help with Dosbox

    You could also forget about your CDROM drive and copy the files to your hard drive. Then edit your *.cfg files in your Privateer directory to reflect the fact that they're now on your hard drive and go for it.

    No medical.

    I can easily imagine there being multiple doctors aboard the Victory, or any other carrier. By the time Wing Commander has rolled around, humanity has not only a huge population on Earth, but large populations on numerous colonies. A whole lot of people. A whole lot of people willing to go...

    How much do all WC intellectual property rights cost?

    I always heard it was a buck two-eighty. But then, I'm here in Milwaukee.

    Antibiotics

    Don't sweat that. Ebola is a virus anyway, therefore it has no cure. Enjoy!

    So Close damn joysticks HELP

    Oh, and as far as crashing goes, maybe try not using the special joystick patch at all?

    So Close damn joysticks HELP

    All right, here's what I've come up with. I'm running P2 on Windows 98SE instead of W95, but that probably shouldn't be making any difference here. I've got a CH Flightstick instead of a Flightstick Pro, but hopefully there should be enough similarities to get you going. Dark.cfg JoyOn 0...

    So Close damn joysticks HELP

    All right. Try setting it up in Windows and the game as a straight stupid old 2-axis 2-button joystick. If that doesn't work, wait and I'll see how it goes on my system. I've got a CH Flightstick which has worked for years, and I'll set up a fresh installation with no patches on my system to...

    Does anyone else get these?

    Have you been drinking heavily recently? Don't get me wrong, I'm certainly not implying that you're a drunk or anything, but just one or two nights of heavy drinking can set off teeny little muscle spasms for days.

    So Close damn joysticks HELP

    Try setting your joystick up in Windows and in the game as a plain old CH Flightstick.

    Armada not running

    Yeah, sounds more like bitrot to me too.

    More Wing Commander Auctions (July 7, 2004)

    What are the silver CDs like? I've never even heard of them before. I knew there were two printing runs, but I didn't know of any differences between the two. Are they just the same font in the same place minus the artwork?

    Back to an old one

    Man, we're dated. 95% of us are dudes in their early/mid twenties. There's a definite demographic here. 22/m/milwaukee, wisconsin

    2-3? 3-3?

    Doesn't anyone other than me go one level less for shields than engine generators? I really like extra power for afterburning and shooting. People may complain about weak shields then, but maybe you shouldn't get shot so much. :)

    KS WC3 CD 3 Error

    Yup, I've gotten that error too ever since I got KS way back when, running it in 95 like it likes. I get it now, running it in 98, and it therefore makes sense it's cropping up in ME. This also sometimes happens to me when Cobra's standing there too. Anyways, the solution is to go ahead and...

    WC4 - Selecting alternate guns

    I think it was the H key. If you're in an Avenger or a Vindicator, I think you press H and then you should be press G if Stormfire doesn't come up as the first special gun. Pretty much exactly like firing the camera way back on Tyr VII when you were still flying for Confed.

    Privateer 2 + speed issues.

    I run Privateer 2 without the slow-down patch. I use Turbo, which should be in the CIC files area if I'm not mistaken. Turbo works more precisely on Win2K and XP systems, but it does work quite well on my Win98 as well. I have an Athlon 800, and I cut the Turbo to 25-30%, and it works...

    Ok, now I know, quality wise KS sucks...

    I don't think your poor keyboard response has anything to do with anything that anyone can fix, to be honest with you. WC2 Kilrathi Saga is markedly slower than the original. Which also means your keyboard response with WC2 Kilrathi Saga is slower than you're used to. Unfortunately, nobody's...

    WC: Privateer (1) partition/disk/xp/elvis/toothfairy

    What kind of sound card do you have? Also, what sort of joystick are you working with?

    Ok, now I know, quality wise KS sucks...

    I don't think it would work, since secret missions and secret operations bring their own new executables into the mix. But hey, try it out anyway.

    Impressions on WC3 KS version

    Dirty is right. I guess they don't even have as many swabbies as we do.
