    Movement (through space) freaked out.

    Sounds like you hit the ( ` ). pressing it again should switch you back. If you went into the config file and changed it, you'll have to restart the game for that change to apply. Then of course, the key you changed it to will toggle that behaviour.

    Mercenary guild render, mining base model

    WOW.. you can even see the concourse details in there. The model corresponds quite nicely with the concourse image you get when landed :)

    Try it with 0.4.3 That is a pretty recent build. There are some differences of course, CVS would be preferable (we'll need to tag priv 1.0 in the code if it hasn't been done already). Please post your compile problems on the VS board.

    How do I get a CD?

    There is one, same place as the windows version. http://www.filerush.com/download.php?target=privateer1.0.dmg (thanks CIC for seeding it)

    Operation Flashpoint 2

    Where'd you hear that? I haven't heard anything about Vietnam. flashpoint2.com says Vietnam is of course in Asia, but that hardly sounds like a description of a Vietnam War era game. I am a bit suspicious about having a team battling a significant threat to the free world, it does sound...

    Great. There is a wiki on the vegastrike site that may be helpful. Good luck! If you run into problems compiling, please post in the Vegastrike subforum dedicated to compiling problems and it can be worked out. You don't need to compile data. You should have it in the installer already...

    Question about the drone texture

    I'm aware of that. My point was that the original game was unable to display all the detail. 320x200 will do that to you. Why would I have mentioned the details visible in the texture if I didn't think there were details?

    Question about the drone texture

    The graphics in the original were somewhat limited in the amount of detail they could display. He based his comments on the texture, which shows a lot of subtle details you couldn't see in the original game. Not all greebles are right angles, the shape I imagine will remain an ovoid. He feels...

    Questions about game mechanics

    The game does indeed keep track of flightgroups. You can run across the same group in different sectors, or follow them around and watch where they dock. The savegames are a little large because of this :) The game is very close to the original, with some easter eggs, and a few changes that...

    Linux Fans, Please Test

    I wonder if the supplied binary would work on AMD64 at all.. If it does, it would probably be in 32 bit mode. Worst case is you get to compile it yourself. The code is all available and not entirely hard to compile, though an ebuild would be easier :) I've no experience in making those...

    Troubles in Linux 2.6, Debian, missing files

    gah.. there's a candidate for the first patch then :-/ Only an issue in the linux installer?

    Question about the drone texture

    It is, and me too :) I assumed he was talking about making a highly greebled model like his Third Wave cruiser class spaceship instead of a game model.

    Privateer freezes after splash screen

    This is related to another of the sticky threads (thanks for checking out the one about the initial "freeze" btw) Vegastrike connects to itself to send sound data, and for some reason the windows firewall blocks connections from 127.0.0.1, which is your computer. That is entirely...

    WCU files moved!

    I have not called it Wing Commander Universe. I have been very specific about talking about Privateer Remake and WCU as seperate entities. I even requested (in a PM to yours truly) that the link on wcnews.com be changed from WCU to Privateer Remake to reflect this, which was done :) Since I...

    Troubles in Linux 2.6, Debian, missing files

    8-0 that would explain a lot. Not sure how that would have happened, they are all in the repository

    Question about the drone texture

    I'd love to see a highly detailed drone model :)

    Hey spiritplumber, can we have the small patch back?

    Thanks for the clarification. Of course, we don't call ourselves the original Privateer, we refer to the original and the remake as seperate entities. I still see your point though. If you like, we can get you a patch that limits you to the canon 4.
