Hello , will WingLoader be combatible with W.C.A.T mod overhaul for DOS wing 1 ? :)

I just did a test and no it is not compatible as Wing Loader makes edits to Briefing.000 and fails the checksum as a result.

I am working on a solution to allow the use of other Briefing.000 files so hopefully I can make it work. :P
 
Hey @Destro! Just to save future integration pain; assume that WCAT will check/patch any GAMEDAT file every time it starts, especially with some of the stuff I'm looking at potentially doing in the future. I'm also worried some of the things I'm thinking about could end up being breaking Kilrathi Saga compatibility (i.e. it could fail if you try to load a WCAT-modified GAMEDAT)... You'll really want to give it its own clean copy of the data; it's only ~7MB extra or whatever. :D
 
Hey @AllTinker. Thanks for the info!

Yeah, I might copy the gamedat files to a custom folder to, as you said to have two copies rather than one copy with both versions going forward.

Installation Instructions:

Wing Loader
1) Extract the contents of WingLoaderv0.92.zip somewhere on your computer. ex: C:\Games

Wing Commander I
1) Install "Wing Commander" via GOG / GOG Galaxy into the Root WingLoader folder. ex: C:\Games\Wingloader so the final result will look like C:\Games\Wingloader\Wing Commander
2) Download Wing Commander 1.5 https://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/Secret_Missions_1.5_(Kilrathi_Saga) and extract the contents of sm15_kilrathisaga.zip into the "gamedat" folder.
*Skip the overwrite. It will not cause you issues if you do, Wing Loader Manages the Install.dat file for you.
3) Grab the latest version of WCDX https://github.com/Bekenn/wcdx/releases and extract the files into the Wing Commander install folder.
4) Run Wing Loader and click the Gear icon at the lower right and select "Patch Wing Commander I".
WC_wcdx.exe SM1_wcdx.exe SM2_wcdx.exe
