    Some sunshine & a few general questions...

    I'm not sure if there is a direct reference, I'd say the proof of this is that they visited Earth and because the description/detailing of this event is so crude, it makes sense we had only just developed literacy.

    EA has cancelled Ultima X: Odyssey

    I was asked to beta test it ages ago (I've done some in the past with EA :cool: ). Never heard a thing about it ever again. Personally I'm not to disturbed by the news. The Ultima series was unfortunately killed horribly. I think they should just let it rest. I won't be suprised if we find...

    Need kilrathi saga disk 2

    EA has no support for Wing Commander games. Their support for current games is pathetic anyway.

    Zen and the Art of Missile Evasion

    Hit the after burners and out run the missile when you can. If things get too dicey then use a flare. But don't shoot them off all the time.

    FAVORITE fighter

    Mine hasn't changed since the last time we did this. ;) The Excalibur is my all time favourite fighter.

    Dolby Surround support for WC3 and KS

    I think Battlefield 1942 comes very close. Most games, nearly all, will do 4.1. However with speakers such as the Logitech Z640s there is a feature on the centre speaker that will emulate 5.1 sound. It's an awesome little feature.

    Dolby Surround support for WC3 and KS

    I know Wing Commander 4 did. Best example of the surround sound feel is the intro. When fighters fly past your screen or from behind.

    Makes sense then. I'm still waiting to get a copy of the novels after End Run. 8)

    The code is being displayed in the corner as it's showing the user what functions are being called etc. Otherwise known as 'developers mode'. It's always turned off on the final release game but in the mean time developers keep it on to show them frames per second, any errors in scripts etc.

    WC1 Secret Missions 1

    Higher resolution models for the cinematics? Might not be so heavy on performance since the computer isn't worry about other things.

    Wing Commander Academy Season 2

    When I first read Kevin's first appearance, he seemed like the kind of guy that didn't need anyone to follow. He was very proud of himself and more of a leader than a follower.

    Pilgrim Cross Availability?

    They're pretty strict on knives and things like that. Especially in this day and age. The other problem is how the knife is hidden in the cross. Might ask for a collector's liscence of some sort to own it. Just depends.

    Pilgrim Cross Availability?

    Please post in here if customs will allow importing it. There are a few Aussie users on this forum that may be interested. :cool:

    MY Wing Commander IV DVD broke into two pieces :(

    It's pretty easy to do it. I snapped the inside ring part of my WarCraft 3 Cinematics DVD without even using any force. Lucky the part that broke is not the disc information part but rather the plastic bit that clips to the DVD case.

    Corey!

    You've also been making some strange posts.

    Wing Commander Academy Season 2

    Anyone here disagree with nice looking women fixing their fighters?.. Didn't thing so. ;)

    Pilgrim Cross Availability?

    I'd also like to know as well. If you find a place that's cheap please let me know as it'll make it easier for me since I'm in Melbourne. ;)

    I'll be honest, I played a copy of the 'Alpha' (it's not a beta, hence why I am willing to bet money you could barely run it). You were playing a poor version of the game engine, that is why nothing worked. Even on my 9800 pro the game crawled. Do yourself a favour and wait for the full thing...
