    Great new super computer... can't do a thing... Need help

    Alright, I finally have found the problem. Its the sound card playback acceleration that is causing the video to be messed up. However, it just confuses me, Prophecy isn't that old, isn't there a patch or something so I don't have to keep adjusting the settings. I just don't want to sacrifice...

    Sorry, I have knowledge of computers, but not that technical. How would I do that?

    Great new super computer... can't do a thing... Need help

    Okay, I just purchased a 866 p3 and it seems like I have a ton of problems, but let me focus on the Wing Commander related one. Alright, surprisingly Wing Commander 4 is completely fine, however Prophecy's video runs a little strange now. I don't know if its the DVD Rom, but the movie is...

    Phase Shielding

    If the pattern holds, I can't wait till the upcoming games when the shift (might) occur again where guns might be able to penetrate better again. I mean all guns too, not just the plasma canon. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must be achieved through understanding.

    Shelton Sliding Bugs

    One of the reasons I liked WC1 so much was because of the engine and even though it was pretty low grade, you could do stuff such as the shelton slide or the eclipse manuver with capital ships. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must be achieved through understanding.

    News update on Wing Commander of HBO

    If anyone saw on the news page it said the movie would be on HBO this coming up friday. Stupid me, I got the date and channel mixed up with another movie. For anyone who wants to know, Wing Commander will be on Cinemax, not HBO, for the first time on friday the 18th, not 11th, at 8:00 PM...

    Ship Charts

    LOL, I don't know if any of you guys find it funny, but I love how LOAF or Chris Reid always have an actual game answer for things. Like the switch from green to blue most of us would just say that the designers just wanted a change. But LOAF and Chris always have a real answer like "different...

    What's More Impressive?

    Ship Charts

    Yeah I noticed that too. In WC 1 and 2 a lot of green was used, but after blue was used. Maybe because it would blend in with the dark blue color they used for space. Who knows? ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must be achieved through understanding.

    Power distribution

    Yeah, I liked WC4 setup, but if you didn't move the power around right you would increase one but decrease another that maybe you had at a good setting already so it was just a pain for me. I like the idea of 6 seperate keys. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must be...

    Power distribution

    I was thinking, for the next game whether it be online or single player, I hope they make it easier to work with power distribution and things like that. In WC 4 I had to sit there and fiddle with all the bars till I got them just right. In Prophecy it was hard to get the right mixture using...

    You just can't win!

    Yeah, you can try all you want, but it is impossible to stay with confed. I think thats why they make it so obvious that something bad is going on if you stay the first time so that you'll leave the second time. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must be achieved through...

    Prophecy: Secret OPS

    I did the whole secret ops deal, and I wasn't a huge fan of the game, but I actually thought it was better than prophecy. So maybe there is hope for this series PS. I thought I would add another comment. I don't know about everyone else, but I think some of the speech is a little dippy. I...

    Admiral Tolwyn...

    One thing I noticed about Tolwyn is his personality is painted much differently in the books as to the games. In the books (mainly Fleet Action and End Run) he is more of a war hero, as for the games he is shown just as Blair's enemy. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must...

    Remember the time. . .

    My first Wing Commander was in 1995 when I rented WC1 for SNES. I loved it so much that I just kept renting it. After awhile I found it in the stores and finally bought it. Then when I got my first PC, I finally got the Kilrathi Saga and WC 4. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by...

    Survey

    I liked WC3 for the story line, but WC1 I thought was the best for gameplay. The primitive engine itself made it more fun (for me at least) because you could pull such manuevers as autoslides just by hitting the afterburners and turning hard. Because it didn't have 3D technology I thought it...

    Argh...

    Okay, i'm going to say a few things here. I'm going to try to remain as nuetral as possible. In frosty's defense I will say that there are a lot people here who do need to start to behave right and he is trying to do that. As for the *rebels* as i'll call this new emerging faction, i'll give...

    I didn't know Flint was from earth!

    They did the same thing with Blair I think. It says he's from Earth, but I don't think he was according to every other source. ------------------ Peace cannot be kept by force, it must be achieved through understanding.
