Yesterday was Wing Commander's release anniversary; I also released Wing Commander A.T. 1.0! There's been many improvements, but the biggest thing is that I brought everything over to Wing Commander II! It's been a heck of a journey (and a lot of work) to get to this point... alltinker.itch.io/wcat

This was a fun puzzle to figure out. ☺️

There was a progression bug in SM2 once you hit the Dralthi missions; now fixed in Beta 0.8 R4! Quite a few other misc fixes; e.g. better support for older versions of WC1. I'm working on further improvements to the input layer, which should be in the next release. alltinker.itch.io/wcat

Beta 0.8 R3 is out; there was a lockup in the nav screen with joystick controls enabled - now fixed! You can also calibrate joysticks in the launcher via Alt-J (like the original game); useful if it's out of whack for whatever reason. More improvements on the way... alltinker.itch.io/wcat

I've just released Beta 0.8 R2, which fixes an oversight in the mouse controls. You can now choose between the original game's behaviour (default) or a "fine" control mode with a reduced deadzone. YMMV - you may prefer the new mode, but either way it's now optional! alltinker.itch.io/wcat

Well, it's been a long wait, but the first (beta) release is out: alltinker.itch.io/wcat In between real life stuff, the delay has been partly because I've added several more features, including revising a huge subset of the input system. You can even now use 4-axis/4-button controllers "natively".

A new version of my Gabriel Knight speech patch is available at alltinker.itch.io/gk-speech-fix. More pops fixed! I also made a realtime version for ScummVM, which appears in the upcoming 2.9.0 (in daily builds now)! The realtime version "only" fixes overflows right now, but that's the worst of it!

Outside of my original projects (more on them another time), I love reverse-engineering old games. Besides Wing Commander-related stuff, I'm working on a new engine for Quarantine (1994); here's an old "drive through" of a section of each map - lots of progress since then. Will resume at some point!

A quick work-in-progress preview of the new launcher for W.C.A.T., which lets you configure the new (and old) settings. It also lets you manage saves (to help with the in-game 8-save limit), or even create / edit them. I probably didn't need to recreate the barracks save screen, but I did anyway. =)

Here's something I'm working on... Wing Commander for DOS has always had ISSUES on anything much past mid-tier 386 machines. I've made an EXE patch which fixes this and other issues - it also adds some new features, including configurable difficulty. On real DOS hardware or DOSBox. Coming soon(TM)!
