    Also, anyone downloading this, don't forget gr1mre4per's frame rate patch. Works great at 60 frames! https://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/Prophecy_and_Secret_Ops_Framerate_Patch

    Super Wing Commander

    Maybe this? IDK maybe too weak. I would stick with OS7 on this thing. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Apple-Macintosh-Performa-6300CD-M3076-PowerPC-100MHz-48MB-RAM-1GB-HDD-/381722066927?hash=item58e0687fef:g:AywAAOSwrnNXP2C3 It would also need a monitor (If VGA then also an adapter from VGA...

    Super Wing Commander

    Luck? keep an eye on eBay, very often you can land yourself an old mac very cheaply. If not a G3, then one of the old Performa's will do the trick nicely.

    Super Wing Commander

    A year ago I sent my old SWC cd out to be resurfaced because it didn't really survive my childhood. When I got it back, it worked but didn't behave well in classic mode on the G5. So I put it away until later. Anyway, I finally dusted off my old beige G3 from almost 20 years ago (You wouldn't...

    FAO: Europe and the rest of the world.

    Thank-you, I was hoping someone would have a better viewpoint on that. You're probably right. From what I heard on NPR, it didn't sound that likely they would leave although they aren't too happy about it. :)

    FAO: Europe and the rest of the world.

    Scotland and Northern Ireland, leaving isn't just population leaving, it's land, it's resources, it's infrastructure (Those things that made England historically want to dominate them in the first place). Not to mention there will be a border where before goods and services use to travel...

    FAO: Europe and the rest of the world.

    You misunderstand me, I wasn't making the case that Texas couldn't survive on it's own. I was saying the U.S. would feel it's loss if it were to suddenly leave and we are a lot larger than Britain. I'm not going to argue with you over long term ramifications, because you don't have any better...

    FAO: Europe and the rest of the world.

    @Quarto. I agree there is always wisdom in taking the time to see the opposite side. I will take the time to listen, but no argument negates the fact that those are actual problems that they will be facing as part of their decision. Their economy is simply in for a world of hurt and there is...

    FAO: Europe and the rest of the world.

    We here in US don't really function under a true democracy (Common misconception even among Americans) . We are a functioning republic. It's why we have to deal with the electoral college when electing the president every 4 years. Apparently the founding fathers didn't actually trust the...

    Wing Commander series on the Raspberry Pi

    I doubt it, It's still an ARM cpu, and would require some sort of X86 emulation.

    Wing Commander series on the Raspberry Pi

    Well dosbox is a no go for windows games, but I was originally thinking wine at the time, but of course it's not meant to run an ARM processor.

    Wing Commander Prophecy: Secret Ops Model Update Pack

    we all found our work around but it doesn't change the fact that it's broken :) It would be nice if a hook were possible.

    Wing Commander Prophecy: Secret Ops Model Update Pack

    It does, but it doesn't work. As soon as a modifier key, or button two on the joystick is pressed, it instantly reverts back. Again I have never had a joystick that worked out of the box (and I've gone through too many to count) which leaves me to believe they were smoking something when they...

    Wing Commander series on the Raspberry Pi

    Well GBA prophecy is a bit of a cheat XD. Did the software render of Prophecy kill it? You should see if you can run munt as well, of course that might be breaking the bank ram wise but worth a shot.

    WC4 Mod For Homeworld 2 In The Works (June 5, 2006)

    This update is fantastic! I was originally very pleased with Geerboxes ambition to meld the two games together and make a colossal super game. They could have so easily done the easy route, slap their brand on it, and shove it out the door on steam. But they didn't, and instead tried to make...

    Is the Standoff team still supporting the game?

    They are if you put it above 100 or some such thing. At 60 it all looks fine to me. Most monitors only support 60 anyway.

    Is the Standoff team still supporting the game?

    Really? What animated textures? I'm playing through the game right now and haven't noticed any graphical glitches.

    Is the Standoff team still supporting the game?

    Whenever you guys get around to making another release, please, please include gr1mre4per's frame rate patch https://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/Prophecy_and_Secret_Ops_Framerate_Patch Or at least patch the executable to 60 frames, I can't tell you just how more playable the game is. This is an...
