First of all let me say, beause this is my first post here, that i refound my old love of Wing Commander games when I stumbled upon the site some weeks ago. I even downloaded the movies made by Queeg and watching them on tv. My son loves them, my wife, remembering me playing the games years ago (and her getting crazy by the sounds in our small apartment back then) somewhat less hehe.
In any case, I have been playing from scratch trough the wing commander 1 game and the secret missions. I do have the old diskettes but my machine here doesnt even have a diskette station anymore so I got a Kilrathi Saga box of an old friend.
I downloaded the secret missions from the site here and basically played to the Firekka victory. However when I wanted to start wing commander II I unfortunately could only transfer my main wing commander 1 character and not those from the secret missions. When I downloaded the patch for wing commander 2 here it changed to a dos version of the exe and under dosbox i could at least see the three options to choose (wing 1, sm1 or sm2) however I still could not transfer the sm2 savegame.
I understand that there are some compatability problems at work here i guess so I wonder is there a way around this, patch for saga made or another way to transfer my sm2 character to wing commander 2? While it isnt that much of an issue somehow I always liked to end up after Wing Commander 2 with more then a 1000 kills on the roster hehe.
thanks in advance,
Nestor
