Could you put the lander cheat back? Cause I would really want to try the SCII game with it. When I had the original game I didn't know that there were this cheat and I would be more than happy if you could put it back.
There were two PC versions. The second one had the lander bug already fixed. And in the 3DO version, the selling and buying of landers was different altogether. And that 3DO version was our starting point. So no lander cheat. However, the Melnorme will *pay* you 1 resource if you say "fill up my tanks" (and you can sell the fuel again). Another cheatable bug, which will also be fixed in time.

If these visions have offended, thing but this and all is mended : You have but slumbered here while these visions did appear. And this weak and idling theme, no more yielding than a dream.
meep-eep, i blew the dust off of the floppies from my old version, loaded them up, and i have the cheat, so i guess its the older version. unfortunately i think there are some other bugs in that old version, as i never could beat the game (it would lock at various times going into/out of hyperspace). the question is, how do i get the 'newer' old version? thanks in advance for assistance.

Don't know if the newer version made it out in the original packaging and on floppy disks, but almost all of the "legal" cd-rom versions of SC2 do not have the lander cheat. In fact, I don't know of a single one that does have it...
I never had a problem beating my original, lander cheat bug, version of the game. So unfortunately, the problems you had must have come as a result of your specific machine configuration. :-/

You could look for Star Control 3 on Ebay or Amazon. At least in Germany SC3 included 2 CD-ROM on which one had SC1 and SC2. bye Michael

The full version on the PC Games Magazine July/August 1998 CD has the lander cheat.
