Title: Freespace screensaver?
Post by: haloboy100 on April 25, 2007, 06:22:40 pm

Alright, i remember having a bugged freespace screensaver a year ago...and i was just wondering if i could have it again. Can someone send me a link? Thanks in advance

P.S. i know it doesent work in XP, but i think i outta try it in compatibility mode for windows 95, if not just keep it for historical reasons.

You mean the one on Freespace Watch? I got it working. Forget what I did though.

i have no idea. i THINK i got it off of planet descent or www.decent-network.com, but i remember it was a bunch of 2D ships beaming and shooting each other and fighters wissing by with missles and you could add a supernova to it.

Yeah, that was on Freespace watch. It semi-works for the XP.

Sometimes the weapon effects wouldn't work, sometimes the sprites looked ****ed, sometimes it didn't work at all.
