wingcommander :prophecy almost works
This is a discussion about wingcommander :prophecy almost works in the Windows Games category; Hi If i run prophecy in w95 compatibility mode. . . i can play in the simulation part of it no problem. But that is about it (yet it proves game engine works). today i saw a user say it works in XP with no problems.
Hi
If i run prophecy in w95 compatibility mode...i can play in the simulation part of it no problem. But that is about it (yet it proves game engine works).
today i saw a user say it works in XP with no problems.
So i tried it again under win2kpro with qfixapp/w95 compt. I was able to play the first 2 missions before it gave me a strange message.
so then i got bold and tried it under w98..game locked without loading..end task. Even switching back, to when it was partially working, it still locks up now.
The thing is..it was so close to working fine. What compatibility (fixes) does this game run under in XP?
This game will run under win2k..just need to find the right combination of fixes.

amazing to think MS considered such a problem but then only went as far as a simple icon problem. lol
