To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Special downloadable versions of both X-Wing and Tie Fighter will soon be released on Good Old Games. They'll be $10 each.
For that price you're getting not just the special editions of the games (which had slightly higher resolutions and improved sound, as well all of both games' expansions), but more importantly they'll be editions of the games that will run on a modern PC without needed to tinker.
The Special Edition offered here, includes Star Warsâ„¢: TIE Fighter and Star Warsâ„¢: TIE Fighter - Defender of the Empire, both in the 1994 and 1998 versions!
The Special Edition offered here, includes Star Wars: X-Wing Collector's CD-ROM and both Tour of Duty expansions: Imperial Pursuit and B-Wing.

Got around to buying both in the recent GOG sale.
Downloaded X-Wing 98, plug the joystick in as it won't start without one, saw a bit of the opening crawl then the game went black screen on me. Had to Ctrl/Alt/Delete and restart the computer to get control back, so not a good start sofar.
Edit must have been some sort of glitch as it working now with no problems.
Read some where that GOG have updated both the StarWars game with the version that have the iMuse in them.
