Remember going into a pub, saw a crowd gathered in the middle, pushed my way through and wow!
Arcade Pong in all its graphical glory!!
Awesome, just awesome, nothing like it had been seen before, the birth of gaming.
total annihilation commander pack (TA, BT and CC) which i got for my birthday (twelve or eleven not sure) back on my Pentium II with 32!!!Mb RAM and S3 graphics, and wait for it, and ENORMOUS 2.1Gb hard diskbut no game has left as lasting an impression on me than that, IMO its the best game ever available for PC, many years of enjoyment with that until my PC ate the disk

I got Freespace 2 from GOG but i can't change the resolution and i want to play it as high a res. as possible![]()
I'm reinstalling the game but I also wanted to try the Freespace Open Installer that I'd heard about some time ago. It seemingly updates an awful lot of the game so perhaps higher resolutions are one of the additions, it's worth a try anyway. Here's the page for more info: http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
So i just download that program and install it?That would then give me the source/updated game engine?
On the "Video" tab, you can choose which API to use (OpenGL or Direct3D), what resolution to run in, and whether to use anti-aliasing (Multisampling) or not. With FreeSpace Open 3.6.9 OpenGL is strongly recommended over the Direct3D
"Allow non standard modes" will let you choose resolutions other than 1024x768 and 640x480. There may be some small graphics alignment errors, but these are generally small and virtually unnoticeable.
Ultima Online - I'm yet to find another game that gives that sort of adrenaline rush... the type that makes you sweat and shake.
God I loved that game.
