A short mission showing the advancement of the work.
No editing and no cuts.
This is work in progress modification for the X-Wing Alliance game.
The featured material is a 1999 X-Wing Alliance game with modifications by Xwing Facility and XWA Upgrade. All you can see is work in progress. It is not published anywhere.
Thanks go to JeremyaFr, Blue_Max, for sharing tools and sharing their knowledge, so anyone can modify this old game the way they want. Many thanks to the entire X-Wing community.
All comments and suggestions are appreciated.

The gameplay in the film is shown using TrackIR. The cockpit without TrackIR looks like the photo from this link - ibb.co/3BRjTp9

I played the original for hours nonstop when I was a kid. It's so good to see there are still people out there working on this game. Think I'm gonna revisitit this classic again.

Its missing the constant stuttering every nanosecond as the dementor in the back of the x wing tries to tear the soul out of your body Still nice work and more than any AAA studio would dare attempt these days.

My jaw dropped. First TIE Fighter. Then XWVM. And NOW Alliance! I love Alliance so much due to the whole mix of Rebel and family missions, with the Otana being such a joy to fly. THIS LOOKS AMAZING. Your hard work is evident but so is your obvious love for the game and the universe. I can't WAIT to see what you guys end up producing. THANK YOU SO MUCH for your work and your passion!

Thank you for the kind words. We look to the future with the hope that a good Star Wars simulator will be created. For now, we're doing our part.

@JAnx01 8 месяцев назад

@@xwingfacility It won't be. Modern games are designed for the lowest common denominator and must have "the wider audience" appeal. Most of the features we have in X-Wing Alliance would get cut for being "too complex" for the masses. Disney would worry about soccer mum leaving the game after 5 minutes for good. X-Wing Alliance mods are the best we can get. So it's up to you.

TIE fighter was my first. nothing has beaten that. my only problem with XvT and XWA is they made the capital ships overpowered. Like your entire squadron would unload its proton torp and none would hit. you also could no longer get close to the capitals

Impressive! This really looks and feels like a completely new game now! The new cockpit looks extremeley immersive, both practical and functional as well as sufficiently retro. Explosion effects also looking better and better and the new shields and hit sounds add to the immersion. Soon, there won't be a single original game asset left it seems!

@xwingfacility 2 года назад

Thank you Axel. There are only three things in this video, including the game engine from the original X-Wing Alliance :-)

@@xwingfacility Honestly, just give me a 20 year old game, given new life by the ceaseless efforts of dedicated and passionate modders over almost any AAA production today.

@xwingfacility 2 года назад

@@axelhopfinger533 Yes, today fans create magic. Licensed companies need to earn as quickly as possible, so there is no time to create timeless products. It has to be cheap to produce, colorful, simple for everyone, without thinking about complicated mechanics, see Squadrons. The flight mechanics of Squadrons at the beginning made a very positive impression, but after a while it turns out that it is prepared only with the pads in mind. Zero immersion, pure dexterity and, moreover, disruptive markers that cannot be turned off. In addition, the information displayed on the target screens in a totally impractical way. It's like the game is made by people who have no idea what they're doing. ehh too much hate :-).

@CBfrmcardiff 2 года назад

@@xwingfacility Well the very earliest X Wing, although a "simulator", had more of an arcade feel. It was easier to hit things! I don't suppose that observation is helpful, though.

@xwingfacility 2 года назад

@@CBfrmcardiff Personally, even today I have problems with aiming at the Tie-Fighter in the old X-Wing from 1993. There was no such facility as in the X-Wing Alliance, i.e. automatic gun convergence. :-) There are several ways to make aiming easier, but that's not our goal.

@@xwingfacility "Personally, even today I have problems with aiming at the Tie-Fighter in the old X-Wing from 1993." - that surprises me! I found X Wing Alliance quite difficult in that regard (especially when it came to missiles)! I quite like the lack of convergence. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

@dykefish2 2 года назад

Great progress, have you noticed a measurable fps increase with the increased gpu utilization patch?

@xwingfacility 2 года назад

Yes, there is a huge performance boost and if this goes on, the X-Wing Alliance will look better than the Squadrons :-). Kidding :-). In fact, a new ddraw needs a few more touches and, as always with new products, there are new problems to be solved. So far, Blue Max and JeremyaFr are masters of optimization and implementation of new possibilities.

Question: How is the mission editing tools? Say if we wanted to make our own missions, how difficult is it to get something together?

There are two mission editors for the x-wing alliance. Both are difficult to handle. Creating an advanced mission requires a lot of time, patience and testing. Here you have links to both editors. Allied - troyed.com/x-wing/DLAlliED.htm, Yogme - github.com/MikeG621/YOGEME. As always, I recommend the forums.xwaupgrade.com/ forum where you should find help with using these editors.

Hello, very good video, what is your cockpit config for your xwing because I'm with the new 5.5 update and I can't find the same cockpit as yours, so I can't play in 2560x1440 the options only give me 1980x1024, however with my other games no problem displaying 2560x1440, could you help me with these two questions, thank you.

@xwingfacility Год назад

This is a cockpit made by us on the basis of a battlefront 2 cockpit. It's still being tested. If you have xwaupgrade 5.5 installed, leave the default resolution. Fix the graphics only in the graphics card drivers. The maximum resolution that can be correctly displayed is 1920x1080. others can be set but errors will occur.

Missions from battle0 and battle1 are practically finished. However, the number of changes in the "engine" (I mean ddraw) is so large that some work has to be started from the beginning. But it's all just better for all of us.

Great game and the update makes it even better! Except on my Win 7 machine, no matter what I do (ddraw update, platform update, etc etc.) EVERY time I click go to debriefing, the game crashes. So it will not let me complete a mission EVER. ARRRGGGHHH!!!! Anyone managed to fix this?

For me, this problem does not occur. Is a similar situation without XWAU 5.5 installed?
