    Random Wing Commander reference(s)

    Another good one is the control column (joystick) in the spacecraft. We've been using them for like 100 years now. Add another 600. Wing Commander seems to have a very realistic/modern approach. A good comparison is the fighters at the beginning of the Lost in Space movie (the new one). They...

    Same reason they have paper? Sometimes technology doesn't need to get pushed forward.

    Wing Commander Academy DVD menus.

    Would MP2 have more quality than PCM? I'm not sure what the two are. You said here you can squeeze more quality for mbs by using MP2, but PCM seems to take more space so I assume PCM would offer even better quality?

    WCKS in WinXP, music/timing issues

    Which games is it doing it from? I found the only part the timing was out was in WC1. WC1 ran perfectly where WC2 was very fast.

    Wing Commander Academy DVD menus.

    Ahh starting to make sense now. So what would be the best approach to keep the quality the files are in now? Would that be to go for 300mb MPEG1? I wanna keep them at the quality they are before they're put on DVD. If that means a couple DVDs I guess that's cool.

    It increased the size to 1200mb. It also only lets me do 1 video at a time. :/

    Wing Commander Academy DVD menus.

    This keeps getting worse. Every single avi converter (to DVD) is trying to tell me a 200mb file is going to be 9gig?! This is starting to get annoying. I've tried heaps of programs and they're all causing trouble. Is anyone able to please recommend a simple program that will: -Convert all...

    Wing Commander Academy DVD menus.

    Thanks for the help guys. I'm using the guides found on that DVD site and converting the avi files to DVD, then authoring/burning them to DVD. So Iv'e got that all under control now. However one problem when I'm converting, what "bitrate" should I use? I went with the default (6000) and that...

    Wing Commander Academy DVD menus.

    I don't really have any DVD software. All I have is my DVD player. Basically I just wanna burn the DVD so DVD players/stereos can play it. I just tried a data CD and the dvd player with the TV couldn't read it.

    Wing Commander Academy DVD menus.

    Ages ago someone made menus for the series. I was going to burn my own DVD now that I've got a write (I've also printed off that nice cover that was made) but I was wondering if someone could tell me what software I need in order to burn a proper video dvd and have all the cool menus on it? If I...

    Any screenies of the Kilrathi in Super Wing Commander or Armada?

    Oh I see. I haven't seen past Season 3 since it was screwed up here. Well I guess that kind of jumbles up my point I was trying to argue across. I'll shut up now. But personally I reckon trying to argue such a thing gets a little too complicated and for no reason. It's like the flightsuits...

    Any screenies of the Kilrathi in Super Wing Commander or Armada?

    I've never seen this in Enterprise. Where did it happen? That was what I was talking about with my "We do not discuss it with outsiders". Enterprise wasn't around at the time of that episode. So the answer would have been "we've got a bigger budget now". So to cover it up simply, he avoids...

    Any screenies of the Kilrathi in Super Wing Commander or Armada?

    Then just imagine every cat in any WC looks like the WC3 ones. :) It brings up an issue which I like to relate a little to the Klingons in Star Trek. The 60's klingons are quite poor compared to the make up of today. Several characters from the 60's series look like the new ones. The...

    Any screenies of the Kilrathi in Super Wing Commander or Armada?

    What's wrong with the theory that the Kilrathi in the movie simply replace those we've previously seen until now? The same reason the sky is black in WC4 and not blue like the other games.

    Pick Your Favorite Sibling (October 1, 2005)

    Strike Commander reminds me of Ace Combat. Love em. But Ultima was just epic.

    Bit of a relative statement. ;) Do you mean look as they should (as opposed to the movie)?

    X2:The Threat, X3:Reunion

    What exactly is X2 like? I received it with my Video card I bought. Never did fire it up. Since I'm taking a break from World of Warcraft (and can't afford anything new) I might as well give it ago.
