This thread gives me the perfect excuse to post after such a long time. I used to talk all the time here, and now I only pop in once every few months. I'm sure you've missed me greatly. 😆 Anyway, I'm Dan. I first came across wcnews way back in 2000 or 2001, so I'm not entirely sure how I ended...

What helped me was doing the following, IN THIS ORDER: Install the game from GOG. Delete or move the Glide wrapper files to another folder. The files are: nglide_config.exe, glide.dll, glide2x.dll, and glide3x.dll Unzip the Enhancement Pack into the game's directory, but do NOT run install.exe...

Well, they still look great! Even just watching them on their own will look amazing. Looking forward to setting aside some time soon. :)

EDIT: I figured out the problem. The OpenGL driver install should be done ABSOLUTELY LAST, at least on my system. Once done, the movies play just fine, though to skip them now is Alt-F4, which thankfully doesn't exit the game. Thanks for putting up with me! lol @ODVS Wow, that looks great! Does...

Okay, I've tried every setting K-Lite had for the H.264 codec, and while the movies play just fine, they're still vertically stretched, and there's a black band along the bottom of the screen. Also, my mouse pointer appears at the center of every FMV, and while I can move it around, it snaps...

All right, I'll do a little reconfiguring after work today and see what happens. Thanks!

Hey, I'm emerging from the ether to express my appreciation for this! Everything looks and works great in Wing Commander IV. In Prophecy, the FMVs are stretched vertically for me instead of fitting the screen, so I can't see the top and bottom edges of them. Any idea what I might be doing...

Wow, interesting stuff. I was always wondering what people thought about the "timeline" of Wing1. I mean, you can only fly a mission on 2654.110 at 0600 so many times (ie. once) before players start to notice something strange about the continuum of time in the game! But, hey. If it doesn't...

You're welcome! Uh... weeks later. And now that I have a desk that allows me to play Wing Commander games, I'll be able to enjoy the games a lot more. Yay! Anyway, I came across a little thing with GOG Wing Commander II. Whenever the game played speech files (the intro, etc.), the game would...

Wow! Amazing! Someone actually owned Rygar! :p

Hey Denis, just wanted to add my voice to the chorus of those praising you for your work with Wing Commander. I did want to relate that my first experience with WC was the SNES port, and was wondering if you had anything to do with it, and if so, what technical challenges you may have been faced...

Hello all. I've been away from both Wing Commander and WCNews for quite a while, but lately, I've been figuring out how to get Wing Commander games working on my system. I've only been away from WC because I don't have a computer desk that allows me to set up a flight stick, and I canNOT play...

Got it as soon as I heard. I needed AC3Filter for the movies to play with sound, so that might be a note worth mentioning. Time for a little bit of travelling back to 1995. :)

In that mission, I tend to just buzz back and forth past the Exeter as the Rapiers chase me. They will inevitibly crash into it. It's actually a lot of fun. Well, when the game itself isn't BENDING YOU OVER and INSERTING ITS-... Um, anyway, yeah. There are ways to kill your enemies that don't...

I guess it means that Amazon can look however you want her to? Hmm... I think I know how she looks. In MY mind, anyway. ;)

Is this the part where I say "Angel can handle my turrent any day"?

I personally see little reason as to why Halcyon would have been anywhere else when the Claw was destroyed. To say that he might have been flying at the time is a HUGE stretch. It's like saying Blair was born a poor black child.

Greebles? Aren't those little green lizard/chicken things in Deus Ex?

Or Gothri. Hey, sometimes all three. It's a party, and you're invited!

Yeah, that's pretty weird. Could it be a corrupted file?
