Fan Trailer Parked Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

The Wing Commander community has seen a lot of fan made video productions in its time... everything from music videos to live action trailers. Now BrynS has taken that tradition to the next generation by creating his own tribute to Wing Commander Arena! This well edited piece, "Countdown to Launch!", combines footage from the Arena trailers with scenes and music from Wing Commander III.

A lot of the mainstream media sites are commenting on how excellent Arena is, but also warning that 'hardcore fans' won't appreciate it as a Wing Commander game. Here's the rub: they absolutely don't know what hardcore fans are thinking. They don't understand the simple joy of seeing the Kiranka logo again or of watching Rapiers and Dralthi dogfighting in HD. When you see a comment like that it means that Arena doesn't have a twenty million dollar film shoot -- but we know Wing Commander has always been about more than Mark Hamill. This new video, which connects the classic film productions to the new setting, is exactly the kind of message we should be getting out!

Fix DVD Movie Playback With Latest Enhancement Pack Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

AD noticed that there was a little glitch with the Multiplayer Scoreboards addition to the HCl's Prophecy Enhancement Pack. In some cases players have lost the ability to watch the DVD VOBs that last year's version made operational. This can be easily fixed by unzipping this file into your Prophecy directory. Our mirror of the pack has been updated with this fix and should now work properly. Lately people have been having a lot of fun blasting each other with this neat expansion to WCP, so it's definitely worth checking out if you haven't done so already. In addition to multiplayer and support for DVD movies, this patch also upgrades the game resolution and fixes a handful of bugs.
