I never used 64 bit environment, and this might have to do something with that. Are you sure you have correct version of DOSBox?? (I am not sure if there is different 64bit version)

Do you guys know how many different endings (and paths) this game has??

I think there are two: Good ending if you win most missions, and bad ending, if you lose most missions (and death ending, if you count it as an ending :amused.

Hi all, this is my first post here.
I'm needing some help with this game. I'm in the Brimstone sector and my mission is to meet up with a transport ship and escort it back to the Claw (which i can do) HOWEVER; when both me and the transport ship get within about 3000 - 5000 clicks from the Claw the transport ship does a u-turn and flies the other way aaaalllll the way to the other side of the map and doesn't come back!
i've tried landing anyway but it treats me like i've failed the mission.

Any and all help is welcome as i love this game and am fresh out of ideas myself.

Wow, long ago I've played that gem.

About your problem: did you go through ALL the assigned waypoints?

Yeah, there's only 2 nav points in this mission the first one is the rendevous with the ship you have to escort and the other has a bunch of Kilrathi fighters near it so i always have to dart back to nav 2 then catch up to the ship, but i always have plenty of time before we reach the Tigers Claw.

I'm honestly stumped as to what to do, i've tried it a few times and the same thing happens.

Anybody ever play the Amiga version of this game? I played it on a stock 1- meg Amiga 500 with one drive. Talk about slow!

The DOS version is so much faster, and better looking. (The Amiga version only has 16 colors compared to the DOS version' 256 colors.)

This was another of my favorite DOS games from back in the day. With the cutscenes it was like an interactive movie. Still play it now and still love it.

I remember buying one meg of ram for a few hundred dollars back in the day, so I could get the four needed to run the thing. The things you do when you are young lol! But back then it was worth it. One of my all time favs.

Hi, I have both Wing Commander & Secret Missions and I can provide Abandonia with it. Just tell me where to send the file zipped.

I originally played wing commander on my SNES, and after moving on to III, IV, and V I've always been curious about the original version of WC1 on PC.

It runs great on my dosbox config, but I was curious if the sound effects suck as much as they do in my game, I mean, the mass driver effect sounds like someone banging a toilet plunger against the ground...and explosions sound effects are non-existent, maybe a little sputtering sort of like when you put out a torch in Ultima VII.

is something wrong is is that just how blue-hair rolled in 1990....?
