Title: computer and 3do differences. Post by: Zarnium on September 29, 2006, 02:53:23 am Here are some videos posted on Youtube of the old computer version in case anyone is like me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOGde9WwghA&mode=related& I have only played UQM, so I never realized how different the 3do and computer versions of star control 2 were. I knew the there were no voices, but in these videos the some of the music, a few game mechanics, some major graphical changes (planet landing... WHOA! how did you live??) and that planet lander bug were all different than UQM, and I don't think there was a planet lander bug in UQM. Something about the hyperspace music I liked better though. Discuss! Title: Re: computer and 3do differences. Post by: meep-eep on September 29, 2006, 04:28:30 am See also this page (http://uqm.stack.nl/wiki/Version_Comparison) for more differences.

Especially big difference when you go into quasi space. Also, there are a number of graphical settings you can make in the latest build of UQM (0.5) that will have it use the PC version's visual content and methods. Just take a look around the options menu.

You don't even have to do that much; isn't there a command line toggle to use the PC music? Title: Re: computer and 3do differences.

It's in the setup menu, too, nowadays (at least on CVS).Title: Re: computer and 3do differences. Post by: Deus Siddis on September 29, 2006, 04:09:51 pm Oops, you're right. I was confusing the PC with the 3DO music. You have to remove the Remixes to be able to hear the 3DO themes.
