Sheepshaver does PPC, but basilisk can emulate the 68k and ppc (and since swc supports both it makes sense to try basilisk) I think the corruption was mostly on basilisk and is allegedly something to do with the way the files are written - either way i just made backups regularly so if it...

Heh, I had real issues with sheepshaver but not with basilisk (which is the harder emulator on paper) on both though i did have issues with corrupting disk images, so make sure you back up regularly!

Glad to see you got it working :) enjoy!

It occurs that the other thing to check is that everything is mounted right: mount c c:\dos mount d d:\ -t cdrom this mounts c:\dos as your c drive and the cdrom drive d as your d drive. ensure you mount the cdrom drive with the -t cdrom extension :)

So this is admittedly on dosbox 0.74. With an un-modified config file (note that means ems and xms are both true), I can install from my "EA presents" cd (or any other means) and get the following file structure: Folder: C:\dos\WCA <DIR> Sat, 20 Nov 2010 11:43 3,949 KB GAMEDAT...

Not too soon! Work has slowed my reading for fun to a crawl :) Just as long as we have something to read over christmas.

ok: so the medal points are: salthi 7 dralthi/krant 10 gratha/jalthi/hhriss 15 dorkir 15 ralari 25 fralthi 50 snakeir 70 star post 75 confederation ship (ie wingman) -1 friendly ship saved (ie protect the drayman) 25 in addition, the lumbari in sm2 is also worth 15 (as it is...

is it just me or does the guy in the video have one too many wingmen! - theres 3 rapiers in the autopilot as they leave :S

ah, but at least when emulating a powerpc I found it often too fast for SWC

I'll post em up tonight if no-one has before, they're in mark minasi's "secrets of the wing commander universe" but originally taken from some guys FAQ from about 1991. The other thing you'll need is how many points are needed to get the medal in any given level (that info is definitely in the...

Huh, not something I noticed, the simplest thing would be to burn those pesky iso's to CD (though a more elegant solution would be nice) I'll have a look later on and see if it affects just you!

As I recall, Action Stations is pretty clear on the dominance of battleships right up until the attack on McAuliffe - at least in terms of fleet policy, both on Confed and Kilrathi sides.

hmm, wierd, is this the floppy disk version (fully installed to the hard-drive?) or a cd version? Could you post a list of the files in the academy folder (so i can make sure it's installed correctly), and also a copy of your dosbox config file (and any other commands you run at the dosprompt...

heh, no problem, just glad it worked!

have you tried (if using vista or windows 7) sol's direct draw hack - http://sol.gfxile.net/ddhack/index.html theres a thread about it somewhere, if thats no help then get back to us :)

would love to help out, but its a little far to travel!

heh, I think I may have been watching that very item - but common sense told me that my bank balance should be spent more wisely! (oh for disposable income!)

heh if you fill the system ram while reading the 600kb module file that will be an achievement!

now that is awesome :)

as i recall wcview is a little temperamental with these things, basically only some versions of the wc exe work - install sm1 and see if it prefers that! anyway, it definitely works with copies of sm2.exe - if not then i'll get the info out for you, i definitely have at least one copy of wc.exe...
