I've updated the WCPedia with this information and explored some of the other options in flight. But I couldn't get the level selection to work. I also confirmed that this works on both the original release and with the patch/proving grounds installed (but obviously doesn't work in PG).

WingLoader uses the KilrathiSaga version of WC1 and WC2, so you can activate the legacy cheats in a couple of ways: 1) if there's a Cheater DWORD set to 1 in the registry at Software\\Origin Systems\\WC: Kilrathi Saga 2) if there's a wingcmdr.cfg or wc2.cfg - that contains $#SAGA.EXE -b -k...

Hah, these are awesome and great to see the script pages updated too! Was this a case of using the wctoolbox to extract the images and then combining the still frames as a gif, or something more complicated? I am curious too about the bomb on the flight deck - I seem to recall that the timer...

if you have a mount command in your main dosbox config file and then a second mount command in the config file you're using for your game, they can conflict and cause dosbox to shutdown immediately - worth checking that you've not got anything conflicting in your users...

I've uploaded an new release to Github - it will let you put any dosbox staging release zip file (>=0.83.0 required) into the folder and will use that, and will also work when run from a folder with a space in the path. Technically the final release always worked, it just would replace the...

Er, let me take a look at the code - no reason the space should need to be a problem, but I didn't test it! It needs Dosbox staging 0.83 for the API support, but again, should be easy enough to update now the official release is out. It will probably be a few days before I can spend some time...

Having a quick play with WC2 - 0.06: 1) Using the Kilrathi Saga data - the 'original' build plays music during the introduction, but the SDL version does not. Even more interesting the music works with DOS data files, but not with KS data files (despite the original build working with the...

Thanks! I was using the 0.0.7 release, so will give 0.0.8 a try later. Really interested in this as i took inspiration from Destro's Wingloader project (https://www.wcnews.com/chatzone/threads/wing-loader-ks-wcdx-loader-voice-over-mod.30387/) on adding full speech to the Kilrathi Saga port of...

Had a little play with this and noted two problems: 1) in game, if i enter the nav screen and hit escape to leave, the game crashes (both with KS and Dos data) 2) the power recharge for the hornet was much faster than usual (basically can fire forever) Despite those issues, impressive how...

Actually the diff in the two files was fairly small - so assuming that you want to use both https://hcl.solsector.net/armada_floppy_dosbox_joystick_ipx.zip and https://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/Armada_Patch_1.0 i think the attached executable should do both. I've tested that the game starts, but...

These are awesome. I'm not 100% sure about the (extra?) syncopation in the bar music, but the orchestration is great, and some (barracks) are how I always imagine the music.

Hey Exteban, do you want to take a look at what I've just uploaded to the WingLoader thread - The tool and code there should support full speech in WC2 (DOS and KS) in the same way that Destro's code did for WC1KS (we just need audio files and a script-file to link off) - it might be fun to...

Fascinating - i took a look and indeed HCL's patch is clearly a modification of the original floppy file (723 kb) not the updated Patch 1.0 file (725 kb). so the two are incompatible indeed. Unless someone can reverse engineer what HCL did, I think the only option might be using a newer...

I ran through a complete setup for myself back in September time on Windows 10 (not 11) and applying the items in the following order worked for me: WCP Install from GOG Right click on Prophecy.exe and disable compatability modes to remove the hanging cursor In options disable interlacing...

The ArmadaDB i believe is a quite old HCL patch https://www.wcnews.com/news/2005/05/05 which fixes joystick support issues with the then current (but now ancient) dosbox 0.64. I would assume that this was built on top of the Armada Patch 1.0 (but i admit it's not clear from his notes)...

OK, source code is available on Github here: https://github.com/MadmanLegion/WingLoaderCSharp. I'll try and upload the full build too so (except for the games themselves).

OK, my plan is to upload the source code and the release package to github too, but I figured I'd share the application for now as I'm sure there's bugs I've not found. It's large mostly because of all the audio files (same as in Destro's package). There's a readme file that explains how to...

Destro I've been working on this for Dosbox, and have a (fully working) implementation as a C# and Windows Forms backend hooking to either Dosbox or Kilrathi Saga - i'm hoping to share something in a couple of days It's actually fairly easy with the Dosbox Staging API. It's not as pretty as...

1:72 would be very close to the 1:76 UK OO model railway scale. It might be incongruous but I'd be interested I'm buying stl files to print.

In light of playing around with WCLoader I tried to use the Inspectors tool in the first post today, it seems that it doesn't like loading with the Wing1_wcdx.exe or with the un-patched Wing1 from KilrathiSaga - is there something I'm doing wrong?
