New MyJEMM Released

For those who still had problems getting Privateer to work with Ross Ridge's JEMM emulator, a new version of MyJEMM has been released. Version 1.4 has support for disk and CD versions of Privateer, Righteous Fire, Armada, and Proving Grounds and floppy support for Strike Commander. Note that the program only works in Windows 95/98/ME. As mentioned earlier, running these games in Windows will also give you support for USB joysticks and sound cards that would not have been available otherwise. His homepage and walkthrough are available here. We've also mirrored the file here.

Suburban Jungle Salutes Hobbes

Edward Pang tipped us off about The Gneech's latest Suburban Jungle comic relating to Wing Commander. The September 27, 2003 edition features a sharp rendition of Hobbes quoting from Wing Commander 3. We previously reported about his July 2, 2001 comic that was pretty well done. You can find all his work here. I wish more people would become well established in various occupations and slowly begin to spread Wing Commander vibes around the world.
