I'll be damned...it works... I copied over the WC folder, created the config file, ended up with the same errors as last time. I went back into windows, and removed the read only and archive attributes from the WC folder and all files and sub directories, and POOF, wing commander 1 now...

Now under the origin directory of the cd we have... d:\ORIGIN\dir [WC] cdgames.exe cdgames.pac copyrit.scr t.exe version.lst I'm not really sure what any of these files do so, went ahead and went into the WC director: d:\ORIGIN\WC\dir [GAMEDAT] install.exe sm2.exe trans2.exe...

Sure, When running the install I receive the following screen: Loading install.bat... Unable to find install.dat... Aborting... When I try to run the game, I get the following screen: Please insert disk labeled 38. Press any key to continue. Let's start from the beginning. So a lot...

Well, here's some new news. After further research, and a few emails, I finally have some information regarding to this particular disk. The Wing Commander CD-Rom Deluxe Edition from Software Toolworks (which includes SM1 and SM2) does not have a working launcher, nor does it have a working...

I'm wondering if this was a problem due to the packaging from software toolworks who created the CD. I also wonder if the Kilrathi Saga version is just as difficult, as I know I have that in a box somewhere around here as well, I just need to find it.

Unfortunately Dosbox and GOG are both not options at this point in time. I copied over the WC folder to the c:\ and the install is now pointing to the A: instead of the local disk c:\ I created the config file with the v a904 data however, after running the wc.exe it prompts with unable to...

Been a lurker for years...and finally my first post. I pulled out my old WC collection, and started installing my Wing Commander Deluxe CD which included SM 1 and 2 to one of my old 120mhz computers running DOS 6.22. The first problem I encountered was the famous Append.exe, Join.exe, and...
