    I have one other space-sim beside Independence War. it is called INCA II, and was released in 1994. The prequel was released in 1992. It is a DOS game, so I run it with DOS-BOX. It is very interesting. You play as Incans flying spaceships. In the prequel, the Incans were fighting the Spanish, in spaceships.

    One comment: REM missiles use all of the pilots controls, rendering the ship itself helpless. With two players flying a ship, one could control the missile, while the other flies the ship.

    I dislike the bugs and lack of information in the game. The developers did a great job building the game, but left out some information that is necessary to complete the game. The best example is in the mission “Lucrecia’s Horde”. They never said to check the e-mail! I have had to refer to the “Acts” section of the “Docs” tab numerous times. The other thing I don’t like is the backgrounds. They are pretty, but it seems rather coincidental that they all have color themed nebulas. More black backgrounds like the Dead Reaches in Torn Stars would be nice. Perhaps there is one in the Gagarin cluster, but I haven’t been there yet.

    I just noticed that the original version of the Base Ambient II image is 1087 x 734 pixels.

    I have over one hundred screenshots, but all of them are 800 x 600 pixels.However, Maxx’s creation in the 3D artwork discussion is 1920 x 837 pixels. Perhaps he can make a custom background after he builds a few more ships.

    You shouldn’t have RAR files. Most mods are in zip format. Can you tell me which mod you are trying to use?

    I pretty sure Cambrogal has made a cockpit for one of his ships in Torn Stars. I saw a screenshot.

    I actually left out a bunch of the mods I may use when I re-play EOC. Here is an updated list: Elite, Future Trader, Station Assault, Ifleet, the Babylon 5 station, Custom Jafs, the retro ships pack, Audio Overhaul mod, BigComSec HC(maybe), ComSec_Multimod(allows to undock ComSec), Repair Ship mod, Station Save, SYN MP3 PLAYER, Waypoint Utilities, Xaereaux’s base mover mod, location finder, Free Form mod, Manual Countermeasures, no launch Sequence, challenge course v2, and Improved Tug (sith sound fixes). Let’s see how many of them work at the same time! Of course, Multimod and Unigui are necessary.
