    Wingcommander MOD in Cryengine3?

    Hi there! So yesterday i was surfing a bit through the web looking at info for the very nice Cryengine3 that will power Star Citizen, and Crytek prominently told me on their website this: I am sadly not really good with modding and 3d modeling and all (wish i were...) but i got the idea...

    OpenGl Renderer for Standoff

    Awesome Job with that latest Patch! Finally after switching from an 8800GT to a ATI 5850 i can enjoy Standoff in all its glory! Thanks a lot to the Standoff team for still patching and in general for this awesome Mod wich i think can hold its own against many if not all Wingcommander like games...

    Dralthi Mk. VII crashed near Sweden?

    As i am also a Starwars fan i have to say chances are a lot higher its the Falcon than a Dralthi, the size would also fit better.

    OpenGL Does DVDs (August 27, 2011)

    I did finally dig up my old CDs of Prophecy to give it a second playthrough (i am not 100% sure if i really did play it through all the way the first time?!?). Will be a blast with awesome OpenGL rendering and DVD movies on my projector! :)

    Wing Commander on Android

    Congratulations! Just tried Privateer on the iPhone, and it really is different from WC2, just Joystick OR Mouse. I see your trouble, not really playable with the Joystick option. I wish there was some way to get the accelerometer to work as input for the joystick. As far as i can tell it is in...

    Wing Commander on Android

    The DOSpad on the iPhone has a thumbstick, not sure about privateer (not tried that yet) but in WC1 and 2 using the thumbstick centers the mouse.

    Wing Commander 2 on Iphone (YT-Video)

    That sadly seems to be a complex issue. I was kinda sad that i had to Jailbreak my iPhone again so i could use free software. I would be happy if it would be for free in the Appstore (there was kind of the same problem with vlc i think). So either there would have to be made some deal that a %...

    Wing Commander 2 on Iphone (YT-Video)

    Interesting indeed. WC2 is much more playable. Had it crash on 2nd Mission but that should be fixed with loadfix -16 i think. Now if i could get the accelerometer to work in DOSpad it would be truly awesome. I wonder if it would be possible to release it like that via the appstore, i did just...

    Wing Commander on Android

    Oh i see, i was not the first to try this recently. I came to the idea when i was a little bit disappointed that the gog version of WC1 and 2 are just using Dosbox and are not really patched in away other way. Then i found DOSpad and now have WC1 and 2 as legal as can be on my Iphone (still had...

    The Guide...

    So, i came back to Standoff after hearing that awesome news that Chris Roberts would like to make a new WC game. Since last time i got myself a Projector, so the cockpit is actually larger than life now! Very awesome!!! Sadly since i also upgraded to an ATI 5850 i am missing the HDR/Bloom, but i...

    Exceptional Memmory (September 5, 2009)

    Ha, good thinking! Have had some games over the years that crash on exit, never bothered me. In most cases it even speeds things up as normal exit might take 10 seconds, crash is instant :)

    Problems? Post them here...

    It really is not that easy... Just figured out that the Workaround with Extension Limit does more than fix crashes, it also deactivates HDR and Enhanced Lightning, wich after checking really changes a lot how the game looks, specially if you fly close to big ships and stuff.

    Problems? Post them here...

    Possible Workarounds You can find the Nvidia Control Panel in Vista if you right click your desktop - Personalize - Display Settings - Advanced Settings... - Your Card (for me it Says GeForce 8800GT) and there will be a Button to start the NVIDIA Control Panel. Once there go to "Manage 3D...

    Workaround for Crash Just to let everyone know: I just played through from Episode 2 to 4 without a crash (and everything like HDR, AA etc. on and at full). In the Nvidia Control Panel (right, no idea how to get this workaround going on an ATI, sorry) under Manage 3D Settings there is an Option...

    IMPORTANT: Standoff Episode 5 patch 1.26 now available

    For me it seems i could fix the crashes when i set in the Nvidia Control Panel (got an 8800GT) "Extension Limit" to on, its under Manage 3D Settings there. Might worth a shot if you have a Nvidia Card and keep crashing about 10 Minutes into a Mission, played Story and lots of Simulator since...

    Problems? Post them here...

    Just figured out a workaround for a small problem that i had. Because the game runs in OpenGL (and looks awesome) Vista only lets it run at 60hz, wich is when you got an old 21" CRT and 1600*1200 not too nice on the eyes. So simple fix (i found out when it looked like it crashed, but just some...

    IMPORTANT: Standoff Episode 5 patch 1.26 now available

    Thanks a lot for the Patch! Looks like i only get crashes when i got bloom (HDR) on, might be because i also got 8x AA, lots of games don't support AA and HDR, will test that tomorrow. Still looks and plays awesome without HDR!
