RE: DEMO - Changing Nav Points?

Ah-hah! Thanks!
ORIGINAL: John DiCamillo

ALT+N marks the navpoint complete, and also sends a radio message to the other ships in your element telling them to skip to the next navpoint.

RE: Demo problem: why do I suddenly drop like a stone?

<r> I've found that "jumping the gun" when docking or landing is what will kill off the AI wingmen, at least in the demo. I couldn't figure out why they kept crashing until I realized that you need to wait for clearance until trying to land/dock. <br/>
<br/>
Regarding Nav Point 5 in that scenario ...

DEMO - Changing Nav Points?

<t> I am probably just misunderstanding something in the demo but I was curious about Nav Points.<br/>
<br/>
I understand how they work on the map and that the autopilot will take you from one nav point to the next if you keep it engaged.<br/>
<br/>
However, it appears that the autopilot will ...

RE: The best time during a games lifespan?

<r> I believe every game worth its weight has two great moments.<br/>
<br/>
1. The moment you open the packaging and get the first whiff of that "new game smell." If it's a product of any quality at all, the manual, box and any game-related inserts are almost head-spinning. Then you dive into the ...

RE: Starshatter - DEMO - same problems

<r> In a blazing fit of Windows usefulness (Win 98 that is), right-clicking the drive reveals that the drive is in fact a FAT drive, but not which format.<br/>
<br/>
Anyone else had this problem or found a solution yet?<br/>

<r> Erik,<br/>
<br/>
It's funny you mention that because with all the problems I was having I ran the whole gamut of maintenance tools (cleanup, scan, defrag) this past weekend.<br/>

The error message is:<br/>

RE: Demo trouble

<t> Matti,<br/>
<br/>
Well, now you've got me thinking. I assumed it's FAT16 because all of my partitions are 2 gigabytes. I have two hard drives. One of them is 2 gigs. That's the C: drive. The other one is 10 gigs. It's broken into 5 partitions of 2 gigs each. This is how it set itself up many ...

Starshatter - DEMO - same problems

<t> Hello,<br/>
<br/>
I am still unable to play the Starshatter demo and therefore can't decide if it would be worth purchasing given the age of my PC.<br/>
<br/>
I've tried downloading the file from several sources. I've uninstalled the demo numerous times. Each time I try to install the demo ...
