I remember playing this game back when I was a kid, my dad thought I'm just too young to figure out M&K steering but after he played it himself, he bought some cheap but proper joystick. Never finished it but I had a lot of fun flying around.
Yeah, though the fixes for widescreen monitors and modern OS exist, this game still have some issues and will refuse to run under certain conditions. I figured out it doesn't like multi-monitor setups, and also it is advisable to restart your machine after several subsequent missions, otherwise the game speed will gradualy slowdown or speed up.
7:47 gave me a small heart attack lmao! If the game ever gets ported to gog or something I might pick it up. Cool lp, will recommend Heroes of the Pacific if you've never played it.
How did you get your menus and briefings to stay large and not be extremely loud? My in game sound is fine but when a menu screen changes the volume gets extremely loud
This was installed from disk image, I think it doesn't matter in the end. You need to use either csfix or dgvoodoo 2 to run it, also you would need fixed .exe for 16:9 aspect ratio. Just look up Crimson Skies page on pcgamingwiki, all links are there.
oh man...this game seems to be really fun but the controls are terrible...the game does not work well with a mouse...on the keyboard it is no very precise...it recognizes a gamepad but it is inverted and uses the left anlog stick...it is impossible to play with those controllers and there is no mod to fix this on the internet...
