You can get it when it's released. The WCS team might be more inclined to hurry up if you use proper capitalization, pumctuation, grammar, and spelling ("plz" is not a word!). If a mod has no downloads, it's not finished yet.

It's considered rude, to lash out on someone who politely tries to correct or introduce you to the customs of the forum.

HLP is somewhat sensitive about grammar (we even have our Grammar Inquisitor).
It usually only ammounts to avoiding "leet" speak pluss proper question marks and full stops.

BTW if you haven't had the oportunity to properly master the language, this is the best place to restart the effort.
We are free, polite (most of the time) and there are able members willing to help.

We had several members with poor grammar, but in a couple of months their efforts have paid off, to the point that their knowledge surpassed some of the "oldies".

There are no exact deadlines right now, but part1, the prologue, should be ready in about 1-2 months.

Yeah yeah .....I know, but the timing was never right. Back then when WC1&2 came out, I did not have a PC yet. And when WC3&4 were 'hot' I was busy playing TIE Fighter/XvT...and after that came FreeSpace and XWA to satisfy all my space shooter needs.

But I recently grabbed WC1&2 from HOTU, and while the concept of sprites in 3d space is a bit awkward, I'll eventually play it when I find enough time.

What is your native language?  Surely you know how to separate sentences? :wtf:

Even if you don't know how to spell, adding punctuation would be a huge help for anyone trying to read your post.

Seams as if someone has stolen some keys on his keyboard ^_^

@Aceofbase
Maybe you should try to write the words in their full length
You -> win commandr
should be -> Wing Commander

punctuation -> means that you set a -> . or ? or ! <- at the end of your sentances.

Well my own english isn't the best, but at least I try ^_^

I'm not sure how much this'll help, but this is how I'd punctuate/ spell the above.  You seem to be fine at reading english, at least.  (comments in italics)

---------------------------------------------------------------

I don't know what the word punctuation is... ('means' might be a bit better to use here, instead of 'is')  but you would love to see me playing Wing Commander, because I had all their ('there' and 'their' have different meanings; 'their' denotes ownership, i.e. 'that game was theirs', 'there' denotes a location 'my coat is over there') games, and I spent years playing this awesome (I think that's what you meant) game.

(NB: this sentence is getting a bit long, so I'm breaking it up - think of full stops - '.' - as being breaks between speaking, and commas - ',' - as being shorter pauses)

By the way, Colonel Fishguts said he got WC1 and 2 from HOTU - what is that, some kind of web site? [/i]('?' has the same function as  a full stop, except it also denotes a question.  You can sort of view it as the tone of someones voice between a statement and asking a question)[/i]

Actually (dropped the 'well', both it and 'actually' have the same meaning here), I lost my game cds because I gave them to my cousin on his birthday and now I regret it. (New sentence here; moving onto a different subject / topic) Do you know where (not were) I can grab them on the net; surely they're (note the ' ; this means they're is short for 'they are') abandon-ware now?

Also, (it's generally considered bad to start a sentence on an 'and', athough it's done by most people anyways)  please tell me what the word 'punctuation' means and I will try to look it up.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Incidentally, punctation is what 'breaks up' english (and other langauge using this script type) sentences correctly; for example, having capital letters to start sentences or for names (or places), also the use of characters such as punctuation marks such as commas (,) or full stops (.).   This helps break up the flow of text into something similar to how it would be heard when spoken; and in turn helps the brain understand it (for a native speaker, at least).

Incidentally, you can look up the meaning of words on google by typing 'define:' followed by the word as the search subject.  i.e. define: punctuation gives this


Oh, and sometimes we (HLP members) are far too hard on non-native speakers... it's fair enough is someone should know better, but if someone is new to the language, then surely we should try and help, not just criticise.

EDIT; try typing 'HOTU' into google.
