x-wing alliance

Does anyone have the game x-wing alliance?

Yup

Short but powerfull answer.

Did you had also the problem when you had the mission of stealing Tydirium that when you entered the hangar, you bumped into every ship that was there?

That mission WAS very clumsy, to be sure, but steady hands should keep you safe, and also if you enter from the right angle.

Of course, getting out again can be REAL nasty...

Well, I found that they don't shoot the shuttle if you drop it. So in order to get that one right I flew away with the shuttle, when they came after me I dropped it, shot them picked it up again and was on my way to a new mission

I have just built a low spec PC for playing these old Win 9x games and I was stunned at how dated and ugly this game now looks.

Can't wait for the new generation of Star Wars games to hit the streets.

Starfighter is the succesor to Alliance, of course, and is on the PC soon, but I understand that (probably due to it being a PS2 game) it has lost some of the stuff that Lucasarts Space Combat fans love- like the power allocation!
Looks the business, though.

Is starfighter with the battle of Naboo?

I think it probably has that battle IN it, but do NOT confuse it with the game called 'Battle for Naboo', which is a simple arcade blasterl

If it's in it, what else is?

A whole load of Naboo related stuff; planetary and atmosphereic. It has its whole own plot just like the old X-Wing and TIE Fighter games did; not as interesting as the Classic Setting but with the benefits of sophistication.

Are there better games of fly-sims of SW on the market? (Belgium market would be fun)

Ush,
question:
I reinstalled the game, and on mission 2, shooting practise, there you go to Dunarys and then you fight a ship or two.
But after that, normally a buoy is activated, but that's not the case here. I keep flying for 5 minutes and nothing works!

Hmm. Got me stumped there, Yerssot. If I ever re-install it I will check it out and get back to you.

I've now got the version update, from 1.0 to 2.1, I hope that solves the problem.
Another question: your trigger, the crosshair, is a black circul and you can't see anything in it. I thought that you could see through it, or is that only with the Rebellion?

Sounds like a graphics issue; I can't imagine anything more useless than a crosshair that you cannot see through.

Andn you can check if it affects rebel ships or not by playing a skirmish game and flying an X-Wing. Or a TIE Fighter for that matter.

You know, I AM tempted to re-install this game now...

It's strange, because my settings are on level 3 wich isn't supposed to do that.

DON'T reinstalled it! otherwhise you could have these problems also.

Strange, instead of flying off, in the shooting practice, I get the message FRS: Slave One entered hyperspace instead of FRS: Andrasta entered hyperspace, I think that's my problem.

Bumping this one again...

I finally have x-wing alliance reinstalled, version 2.02 and I STILL have the same problem with the shooting practice (and it's really strange because I finised the game once and then suddenly I have those problems)

I'll see what the "official" guys say about this, but if anyone has the game and knows what's wrong, let me know!

I haven't even heard of this game. Can you guys tell me anything about it???
