Quick question - Going back to the weapons, I've taken a quick look at the game and modding capabilities, I haven't had the chance to dive into it atm, so I was wondering, would it be possible for different weapons for each ship, - Hornet Lasers, Banshee Lasers, etc. That way upgrading each...

Maybe he's referring to the novelisation? It's been about a month since I read it, but was Blair not promoted then also? - I'd have to check, but I could have sworn it was the rank of general (or brigadier general) - Please forgive me if I'm mistaken

Well, from what I remember, (been a while since I edited wc1 missions) - All the missions are actually held in the module.000 for the main campain. If you replace just this file in KS it will work. The only reason I can think it replaced the wc.exe file would be if the missions you downloaded...

Well, I'm gonna play around with it this weekend just using everything included with FC for now, I'll prob start out with a simulator mission, but to attempt what I was asking about, I was thinking of making a simulated mission where you jump the Proxima gate and have a good ol' fashion run in...

#wing-commander is still thriving on the beyondirc server, right now, a good number of us are mourning his passing and talking about the way he was. I'm aware of the fall out between the CIC staff and Eag, but I'm thankful for the kind words. Eag was a kind-hearted man and I will sorely miss him...

Ok... To begin with, right now, it's not possible to add more ships, to the simulator, but swapping them out has been happening for a while, in theory (I'd have to check with HCl) - If you switch ships, or modify them in any way, as long as whoever is playing the server and the clients all have...

cool - looks good in colour, I do agree the panels seem like they could be awkward, also, just curious, will there be a jump fuel indicator on this one as I can't see it

looking very cool :) Is the editor just for importing objects/making stats or will this also go on to be used for designing the star systems you use too? I also confess to be interest if this will be released later to allow some "alterations" to the game? - I know you guys are putting a lot of...

Looks pretty cool, can't to see it complete and with textures, the struts look a little... big, what roll is this again? Hauler? I could easily imagine a hauler with the more limited view as of course, fighting isn't it's primary roll.

good lord! a light fighter with 2 flash paks capable of a speed of 700k/s? - No chance, read the wc4 novel, those things are not light and even the Lance fighter with it's fusion power supply couldn't manage 700k/s with 4 tachyons... The pic reminds me somewhat of the arrow, I'd suggest more...

well, sorry iceman, I missed your post there... I do agree that would also be very cool, but my idea was more to have the flight sims in the stations themselves, rather than your idea of having it in your pilots own room. sorry if I offended you with that comment, wasn't my intention.

Well, this is a different to suggestions made so far, and that's a mission simulator, I was playing standoff and thought that something like this would be possible. What I'd personally like to see if you consider implementing this, is that as well as the player ships, how about having the option...

hmmmz, can't get that link working matey - was curious to see this mesh since I've spent ages trying to create some kind of jump point effect with 3ds max - any chance of a screenshot?

what might be interesting, is to be able to go from one mission to the next while in spaceflight, I checked out old wc3/4 missions and this was how they did the jump point missions back then, when you jumped, basically another mission was called immediately with a small cutscene inbetween. Just...

hehe - Eisen would do fine btw - no need to credit me anyway, I just used HCl's tools and ripped the ship out of the game :) - Credit, as always, should go to Origin :)

wasn't there an extremely similar storyline used for independence war 2....why do so many games have to borrow each other's plots...sigh, looks pretty tho

Hmm, well I don't have any reference material with me right now (ie novels) but, iirc, when the Kilrathi launched the nuclear attacks, had they not decided the war had become one of total annihilation, they had lost all (though little) respect for humans after they fell for the false...

Hmm, I've experimented with rpg maker too, which isn't too bad - tell me, how are u planning out this RPG, I'm not that familiar with sphere or the rpg toolkit so can't really say which would be better. Have you got any kind of story for this? More importantly, what kind of characters are u...

well, if you can recall HCl's old wing 4 mission editor - Arena, then yes, it was possible to fly the Razor, or any other fighter in the game, Don't know if it's still possible to grab a copy from his site however.

well, my first experience was with my Amiga 1200, got killed many times on that first asteroid field mission, but then again, I was about 10 at the time... Eventually got my first pc, and while shopping in a store just after a birthday of mine, I saw 2 boxes, one was wing commander 1-3 (aka...
