Wing Commander Arena follows, with a Time Skip, after Secret Ops, but doesn't really have a storyline as such other than some descriptions of the Great Offscreen War with the Nephilim in the manual, as its primary focus is multiplayer combat.

Secret Ops, running on a modified version of Prophecy's VISION Game Engine, is something of a favorite in the Game Mod community for its relative ease of modification. It moves six Midway pilots to a new ship for another campaign against the 'Nephilim' invaders as they strike at the heart of the Confederation.

Wing Commander Secret Ops was originally released online as a free Episodic Game, and may be the Ur-Example of that trope.

Prophecy is one of the first space sim games to utilize 3D accelerator hardware, in particular the 3DFx line. From the depths of space comes a new foe, one even the Kilrathi fear, and it's up to your experimental carrier to stop them. You no longer play Christopher 'Maverick' Blair, but a hot-shot new pilot, son of famed Tiger's Claw veteran Michael 'Iceman' Casey.

Wing Commander Prophecy starts a new chapter in the series.

Instead of buying some droids, he's re-activated to investigate unrest out on the frontier, where the difference between friend and foe isn't quite as clear-cut as it used to be.

Its use of digitized voices finished cementing Sound Blaster's fame. Your character finds himself unfairly blamed, and vows to clear his name, getting his chance ten years later.

Wing Commander II: Vengeance of the Kilrathi, which starts out with the Claw being destroyed by Kilrathi Stealth Fighters ( which can turn invisible) while trying to attack a major enemy command post.

It made use of a fully-orchestrated (if MIDI) Variable Mix, helping to make Sound Blaster a household name in computers.

Wing Commander, in which your sort of Heroic Mime becomes a hotshot pilot aboard the TCS Tiger's Claw, a famed carrier in the Terran Confederation serving in the Vega sector of space.

And I barely even have code of my patch I just edited the exe file directly, with a hex editor.Īlso note, there is no one currently employed at EA to maintain these games, at all. As a company, EA can't afford to risk that, which means they would need to do that same research all over again, or at least check all the involved code before they can implement it all in official patches. It's unlikely that anyone in the patching community nowadays would add malware into it, but I remember back in the day there was a very popular 8-player online patch for Tiberian Sun that sent private data to its creator. A lot of research went into all of these community patches.īut EA can't just take 3rd party fixes and trust that they don't contain anything unforeseen. But to make the fixes for the first game, I spent ten years digging into it.

Sure, you can just go to these sites and download and install these patches.

For software, that definitely qualifies as antique.Īnd, actually, it's not that easy to fix.

Command & Conquer is nearly 25 years old, and even Red Alert 2 is approaching 20 years. There's simply no getting around that fact.

In terms of gaming, you are buying an antique project.
