    Open questions thread from Ginger Lynn Allen

    Euh, the only thing WC3 stored on your hard drive was the game engine, the config file and your savegame, I recall it did needed some swapping. Wing Commander 2+speech pack+special operations took about threequarters of my 40MB hard drive, that was the game you removed after completion. When...

    Do any confederation fighters/bombers have copilots?

    Since you can tail and dogfight purely on eyesight in the Wing Commander Universe, and sensor cloaks were possible during the early days of the war, wouldn't it make sense to have a human gunner using hand-eye coordination and instinct on the trigger?

    Travel time jump lines and across systems.

    Transit is not instant, we see that in the wing commander cartoon. The prophecy map however outlines "shortcuts" between star systems, and it even varies by the jump technology used. In the games it appears instant for the player. In other fictional universes it can be an occurrance, from star...

    But then she has to survive the final sortie in order to end up in the shuttle with you, so keep her off your wing.. But I recall in the conversation she objects when you do not fly with her after the bar scene, she'll enforce a decision on you to take her as a wingman. So take her out at least...

Used latest driver version(The device is still in production at speedlink, and there has never been a revision of the hardware since 2008) I bought two of them since I...

    Wing Commander Broadcasting On German TV (October 2, 2015)

    Wing commander stands out as one of the sci-fi universes that did not get a make over... An you guys did really, REALLY put an effort into that.

    Best Joystick for $40 or less?

    As for potentiometers and them failing, while looking up if my stick used potentiometers, I found a video on how to exchange them with Hall Effect sensors, seemed simple enough... and looks like it would work in most joysticks.. That might just be something for those who own expensive joysticks...

    Best Joystick for $40 or less?

    I put it in front of the keyboard, and use the hat switch(4 points of it, it has 8.. but the rest I disable) to select my guns/missiles, things like communication I reach over and use the keyboard. Also, the device is pretty large, and the throttle and joystick are wide enough apart, what made...

    http://www.speedlink.com/?p=2&cat=414&pid=21606&paus=1 Have had it for about 4 years now, still running perfectly. Extremely durable, cheap(+/- 25 euro's in webshops), and a pound for pound match against Trustmaster's HOTAS X. Solid feel, full-sized throttle, arcade-style extra buttons...

    Listen To Full WC1 Voiceovers In Mega CD Walkthrough (August 2, 2015)

    The graphics come close to the original PC version, but they only had to lower it down to 64 colors instead of the EGA version's 16 colors... The "bad graphics on SegaCD" reputation comes from the FMV games.. Wing commander is one of the rare non-FMV gems the system has.

    Prophecy HiRes movie problem in Win98SE

    No insult... But VLC just does a lot things differently.. If you can get the movie to playback under WMP, it should work normal in the game too.... K-lite was always a recommendation... http://www.oldapps.com/k-lite_codec_pack.php?old_klite_codec=67 <this version was the final support for...

    Prophecy HiRes movie problem in Win98SE

    I am aware of what VLC player is, and as far as integration with codecs tend to go, VLC makes rules of its own... WinDVD adds it's codecs to WMP that makes things go from there. Good to hear you resolved your issue.
