WC1 Remake Mod For FC Unveiled

Kevin Caccamo has been secretly working on a mod for eddieb's Flight Commander game. The project attempts to recreate Wing Commander 1 in the Flight Commander engine, and it's been in the works for several months. A demo is available for download for anyone eager to try the game out. The files and instructions for how to install them are available on the project site. Many of the textures have recently been reworked from scratch, so the shots might look a bit basic at first. Hopefully more projects like these take advantage of the relatively easy configuration and modularity of the Flight Commander program. This attempt utilizes the full version of FC1.2. You'll need to download and install that first. The upgraded 1.3 executable should be out soon.

Gemini Gold 1.01 Critical Fix Released

There's been a slight bump in the release of the updated Gemini Gold. The original upgrade seems to have created a recurring crash at a certain point in the Righteous Fire campaign. The patch to fix the issue has now been released and integrated into the regular 1.01 release. Players with either the 1.0 version or 1.01 update can download the corrected file here.
