WC 3/4 movies

[Mav23]

I would like to know if there is anything that I could download that will let me view the WC III and IV movies without playing the game. If so, howabout the WCIV DVD version?

Q: How can I extract movies from Wing Commander 3?
A: Use the WC3 movie viewer. Visit our Files section.

Q: How can I extract movies from Wing Commander 4?
A: Use Ripper. Visit our Files section.

Q: How do I view movies extracted with Ripper?
A: You need Xanmovie to view these files.

Q: Where can I get/download Xanmovie?
Xanmovie is built into Kilrathi Saga and one of the Crusader games. Check our March 15, 2001 news archive for a codec that you may be able to use to patch your current movie software for Xan play.

WC4 DVD's movies can be played seperately. We have an index at https://www.wcnews.com/articles/.

I saw something awhile back on the CIC about a file index where you could select which movie to see and it was captioned and had a picture illustrating it, do you know anything about that?

 

[KrisV]

Not really. Define "a while back". And in case you hadn't noticed, we have an archive at https://www.wcnews.com/news/ and a search at https://www.wcnews.com/news/newssearch.shtml (and yes, I know there's something the matter with that one).

I don't know when, I think it was this year, but it had a pic of Blair and Hobbes from WCIII and said something about movie rips or something close to that...
