Rapier Sighted In Luxembourg Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Branches found a cool thing over at DeviantArt. Photographer Spako ran across a seemingly abandoned Rapier fighter at an industrial site in Luxembourg, the country where the Wing Commander Movie was filmed. These ships have shown up on display or for sale a couple times over the years, but this is the first that we've seen just chillin' on its own somewhere. Someone needs to head up a search & rescue mission to reclaim the craft if it really is a derelict.
This Sunday morning I went together with JC to an abandoned industrial facility which was used as shooting location for some scenes of different movies, one of which was "Wing Commander"

Making the Game: Comm Notes Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Today's document is a game designer's notes on the intended communication system. We learn that there is only room for 80 megabytes of comm speech plus video available on each disc, so what was intended as an incredibly complex system must be pared down. Once again, years after the original game shipped on 3 1.44mb disks, space limitations are forcing developers to think differently. Imagine what could have been done with a BluRay...

These updates are thanks to John "Captain Johnny" Guentzel, who provided several CD image archives of material used by the Wing Commander Prophecy development team!
