Title: StarCon3? Post by: crash8 on November 04, 2004, 05:32:57 am Does anyone know if a Windows version of StarCon3 exists or will ever be created? I couldn't get my original version to run properly in Windows nor could I find a version that would. If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks!
Title: Re: StarCon3? Post by: Kaiser on November 04, 2004, 07:30:57 am Mine worked fine with Win98. XP is another story.
However, Star Control 3 not working is a blessing. :) Title: Re: StarCon3? Post by: crash8 on November 05, 2004, 03:01:52 pm Heheh, yeah. It's definitely not as good as StarCon 2, but I kinda wanna play it for nostalgic purposes. When I originally played it, it was on Windows 98, but you're right, I'm on XP now and it doesn't want to work properly. I need to build a "retro" machine so I can play some of my older games. I miss playing Ultima 6, too.

Anyway - I used the XP adaption system and it worked fine. (it can pretend to be win 95,98,ME and have 256 colors and what not.) Its in every XP system - just go to help and type it in.....
