I'd try keeping a good distance from the FRG (but still within laser range)...I find that you're more likely to become toast if you're less than .75 klicks from any capital ship (not just FRGs)....  [Read More]

The X-Wing Trilogy version of TIE Fighter is exactly the same as that found in the X-Wing Collector's Series. Therefore, the compatibility fix found here (http://www.lucasfiles.com/?s=&action=file&id=653) should work. It will also solve the g...  [Read More]

No, what you've probably seen is the 3D compatibility patch for the X-Wing Collector's Series, which will only work w/ the Windows versions of X-Wing and TIE Fighter. The DOS games require emulation of the DOS operating system when running on Windows...  [Read More]

It might be worth it to get the Collector's Series, then (or, if you're hung up on the iMuse music that you'll lose in the Collector's Series version of the game, find the "Collector's CD-ROM", which is also a DOS version and will have the...  [Read More]

Most likely, a DOS emulator. DOSBox (http://sourceforge.net/projects/dosbox) and VDMSound (http://sourceforge.net/projects/vdmsound) are the best possibilities, with VDMSound seeming to work well with X-Wing (and TIE Fighter, I might add). You might...  [Read More]
