What the smeg is Origin FX

I don't know if anyone's asked this before, i did a search and nothing came up.
But I grabbed the Origin FX demo off the files page and decided to check it out. It asks for a directory for Strike Commander, which I don't have, so I'm just kind of curious as to what it is supposed to do.

I believe it was a screensaver.

It was more of a screensaver then you'll ever be, colonel. It's excellence personified... It's...

It's incompatible with Windows XP!

It's... symbolic of all that we'll archive in the future!
 
Origin FX is a Win3.11 screensaver... it has a bunch of generic 'savers (melting Windows, burning Windows, etc.) and a bunch of Origin screensaves (WC fighters flying around, Ultima critters wandering around, etc.). It also has the ability to play any movie from Wing Commander 2 (movies -- like the 'kiss' and such).

The 'demo' does the same thing for Strike Commander -- point it to your SC directory and it'll play any of SC's movies.
