All this makes me wonder if it might be easier to improve the Dos version then fix the broken windows one :p

Hmm XvT style flight colors for team multiplayer :)

There is no need to install OSX on G3. The version required would be so low, nothing modern could run on it.

Interesting, I should try this out. If I can get off my butt to put the G3 back together.

At some point later in the game it will have you go back to onderon.

There is always the star wars fantastic freelancer mod Freeworlds. They put so much love in the game pushing the engine, I hope they are still active

I have no idea so I'm thinking of wacky possibilities. Here is something that happened to me. Once I put in bad ram in the computer certain applications kept crashing or wouldn't load up or run properly. Unfortunately I found out it was bad ram from a mem test long after I trashed the OS...

Howard Day's post is just a couple above yours, he is a lead team member of St Nazire. :)

Pining for the fjords ?!? Look, I took the liberty of checking that website, and the only reason it was still up was because it had been NAILED there! (Great to hear from you Howard and great to hear you guys are still alive and well. I'll still be rooting for you all! :))

My concern would be it has all been done before, many times over, by people with a lot more money and ability then anything I could ever hope to achieve. We are already getting that with Star Citizen. However there isn't a single HD sprite based space sim (Wings of St Nazire aside which looks...

Worked well for the Star Control II remake, (forget the 3d models, a proper 2D artist can do so much more for 2d sprites) That is all Daemon Czanic's work, he posted here not too long ago with a bit of wing commander concept art...

Sorry, all the game assets are still 4:3 and setting the resolution doesn't change that. Some people prefer black bars rather then horizontal stretching (what good is a hires image if it's distorted like a fun house mirror?). AFIK you need the OpenGl renderer for the enhanced DVD movies to...

I don't know, the physics simulations are rather cpu intensive. I have a 6 year old intel core i7 duo. I wouldn't say it runs all that fantastically, especially when there are a lot of parts floating around. Of course this is Unity4.

Results I have seen from Unity 5 are much better. Take a look at Cities Skylines. Kerbal Space Program too is getting a major update to the new engine in the near future, It will be nice to see how much performance is improved. Apparently it must be fast enough for them to be working on a...

Are they expecting the next starcraft to be made on their engine and use their services? Seems kind of far fetched. The truth is, there is just too much competition these days (not the least star craft 2).

It is completely amazing that they did this but I'm a little confused as to why? It looks to me like Amazon is taking on a lot more overhead for no direct benefit, or indirect as far as I know. If they want to be another steam, they don't need to have their own game engine to do that. Or is...

Hey! I have no idea about the thrustmaster, I'm sorry :( You probably tried this already but just in case, to get it to slow down you can try increasing the screen size to large (cmd-3 or in the menubar) .

I'm all for the prequels needing to stay extinct :)

Ah, you may be right, Now that you mention it, I do remember SWC running a little fast on my G3, but my memories could be clouded by my experience on classic mode with the G5 computer, which it really did run fast...and had other problems. It did run fine our on the old performa, but...

Out of curiosity why 8.1?
