    Vengence of the Kilrathi Deluxe CD

    Possibly. Are you trying to run the game in Windows or DOS? If you're trying to make it work in DOS, try running WC2 in Windows once, just for kicks. Lots of people have no trouble running this game in Windows 98 itself. If you're really hard up and want to use the actual install program...

    Excellent. Still no Strike Commander CD support. However, one certainly can't complain with Mr. Ridge's hard work as it is. Have I said excellent already?

    Vengence of the Kilrathi Deluxe CD

    Well, the installation method seems all right. It's the one I used, anyways. What exactly is your system configuration? That can help tremendously.

    Sound Blaster Live! In DOS

    Well, for starters, sbeinit doesn't particulary like being loaded into upper memory. Other than that, sorry, I can't get my SB Live to work quite right myself. The Creative diagnostic program sees the card just fine, but not a single game will. Go figure, hey? Other than that, there's just...

    Wc V ending

    I think it would be cool if Maniac showed up in a Privateer installment. After finally having been kicked out of Confed for still being a Major, or failing to pass physical flight requirements, he decides to continue flying however he can. He's said in numerous games that when he goes, he's...

    pdf novels.

    So far, my take from Half Price Books over the years has been: WC1 Deluxe $2 Wc2 Deluxe $1 Prophecy Gold $8 Complete Academy $2 Strike Commander $2 Fleet Action novel $3 I see copies of Privateer all the time in there at a similar price. I'm just waiting for Armada to float my way.

    pdf novels.

    Also, if you live in a state lucky enough to have Half Price Books locations, they are usually a top resource for finding all sorts of Wing Commander stuff. Real cheap, too.

    wc 4 (staying on confed)

    My theory is that Circe/Speradon and Ella are the big decisions. If you side with one character on both choices, then your ending is guaranteed. If you split the issue, then the game goes down to the little decisions, like "hoping Eisen gets to the right people," or telling Maniac to chill...

    Favorite Fighter WC1 and 2

    Why didn't they upgrade all fighters? It's a slow progress, I'd guess. Probably because the Empire of Kilrah would have pounced all over Confed if Confed pulled all of their Rapiers, Ferrets, Hornets, and Raptors off of the flightline to upgrade them to the latest spec.

    peace on earth?

    I would imagine countries might probably still exist. If autonomous countries still exist, they're probably all at least loosely united under an "Earth" banner. Different flags don't mean so much in this case. States and provinces of countries usually have their own flags, yet still consider...

    Favorite fighter from WCP

    I don't know, I guess I liked the Wasp. The Panther was excellent, but I really ended up hating the Panther by the end of SO just because that's practically all you fly in it. It made everything seem like the same mission. But since there's still Thunderbolts around in SO, they have to get my...

    Favorite Wingman?

    Quite right. I often wonder what people are talking about when they say they hear a "british" accent. And for the record, I always enjoyed flying with Maniac. At least in Wing 3 and 4. I never had to worry about him getting into too much trouble, what with his talent.

    Favorite fighter from WC3\4

    The Thunderbolt. Those guns are simply unstoppable.

    Kilrathi Saga joystick troubles

    Well, if nobody has any suggestions, then perhaps I'll try a new joystick. After all, it has been 7 years since I bought mine, perhaps it's time for a replacement anyways. Can anyone recommend a gameport joystick that works with Kilrathi Saga? Does anyone even make gameport joysticks these...

    Kilrathi Saga sound

    Hm. I always thought that sound problems were inherent to WC2 in the Kilrathi Saga. At least with speech, anyway. It's never worked quite properly for me, even when I was playing it on a real Win95 machine.

    The CIC OT Zone's Official You're All Huge Idiots Religion Thread

    To try and center it back on the original topic, I think it's very sad that Bush wants to make sure gay marriages can never happen. Whether or not you find it a religious issue, my point is that America is supposed to be a country founded on the idea that all people can have the choice to do as...
