Wing Commander Prophecy

Is it possible to change the resolution?

Also, are the Glide graphics better than the Direct3D? I have a Glide wrapper, but it's a pain to load it each time I play a game unless it makes a significant difference in the graphics.

I've been on a spree with old flight sims lately. In the last month or so I picked up Wing Commander Prophecy, Secret Weapons Over Normandy, Red Baron 3D and MS Combat Flight Simulator. I guess it's that new Sidewinder joystick I picked up.

I remember that game, was pretty good if I remember correctly. I enjoyed some of the old Wing Commander series, they should make a new one, totally up to date with DX9 graphics, it could be pretty sweet.

They did make those sequals you wanted. They're called StarLancer and FreeLancer.

Wingcommander Prophecy? THis isn't a new game right? I am er was a big fan of Wing Commander, especially WC1, but all succeeding iterations of WC have gotten worse since the first one. Especially 3, which many people for some reason consider to be a revolutionary blockbuster game (frankly, it wasn't).

Freelancer ain't a sequel to Wing Commander. First off no joystick! You can't be a wingcommander game wtihout a joystick! Second it's more sequel to Privateer than Wing Commander.

Mochan,
WC: Prophecy is an oldie. It came out in '95 after the Roberts' left to found Digital Anvil. It's WC 5 and was the last WC game to date. You may like it because the designers shrank the 'space opera' cutscenes to return gameplay to the front.
Besides, how could you think it was new when I was asking about Glide:confused:
