Yeah this is one of few arts from EezySeven thst do not involve a character held in a oversized gloved hand.

Either way this is a tribute to Tim Curry.

This drawinf shows Nicky in a war zone (likely S. Korea under siege from the DPRK) using Kilrathi weapons (the Kilrathi rifle and pistol), most likely he likey bought it at an Kilrathi military auction when they demilitarized.

This was sitting in my WC1 box. I remember getting this in 1991 and running it in the Babbage's store where I was the assistant manager...

Not made by me, but the Alpha has been released - it's awesome.

Get it here:

It needed 640k or ram.
I remember having to skip a mission because of a bad sector of the disk.

Please let me know what you think.

I'm currently playing through the SNES version of WC1 after having beaten the DOS version a dozen or so times but this is the first time I've been all the way down the losing branch.

I'm really struggling with Hell's Kitchen / Apocalypse 4 (and 1-3 if I'm honest) because I'm stuck with the Scimitar. Any advice? I'd even take the Hornet at this point.

Hello!

I'm working on a source-code reconstruction of the original Windows/Win32 Wing Commander executable from Wing Commander: The Kilrathi Saga.

Function and module names are largely based on the Mac demo, which contains a substantial number of symbols, along with other releases that exposed some type names. I also discovered that a complete C source file was leaked as part of an old WC1 demo, which has been useful for the reconstruction.

You can follow the work-in-progress here:

The goal is to recreate the original Win32 executable as closely as practical. Since byte-perfect reconstruction is usually extremely difficult and, in most cases, unnecessary, it is enough to approximate it with a good similarity metric (around 98% or so). Once the reconstruction is mature enough, I'd also like to improve the game, possibly incorporating features from WCDX, and eventually port it to SDL2.

The code is still very preliminary, so expect its quality and readability to improve significantly over the coming days.

Stay tuned!

I just found this on youtube

Gotta say except not having cockpit view this game is amazing

This is such a great game.

It happens on wing commander 3 and 4. I already finished installing enhancement patch for both of games. Is there way to fix this issue?
