More on WC4 in WXP Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Thomas Perl was kind enough to send us a instructions on how to properly execute our Wing Commander 4 Win95 to WinXP patch posted earlier this week. You can follow these directions to create an autostarting Windows XP compatible WC4 install disc.
Take the WC4 Win95 Installer files, extract them into a dir.
Copy complete WC4 CD 1 to same folder.
Extract all of the WC4 Win95 Patch files into the same folder.
Rename wc4w.exe to wc4w.ex_.
Rename xanlib.dll to xanlib.dl_.
Install the game OR:
Create autorun.inf with this content:

[autorun]
open=setup.exe
icon=wciv.ico

Burn the contents of this folder on a cd => voila, you have a autostarting, fine WC4 Win95 CD-ROM. :)

Very cool. We'll have more patches to modernize other Wing Commander games soon.
