Hardly.
Anyway, I gave X-Wing Collectors Edition a play last night and that ran perfectly too. You have the option of running the DOS original, the CD version or the collectors edition.
I opted for what is basically an updated remaster with the collectors edition. Everything worked but I'd forgotten how confusing the menu navigation was in this game,chaving to navigate doors in the facilties to move between game modes and options.
The controls were not mapped at all well when I first loaded up a practice combat mission to test it out. I've been experimenting with some community control layouts. The one I'm using now is much better but still not perfect. I need to think of the best keymap to adjust shield/Phaser regeneration, targeting, ship speed etc.
Anyway the game runs well and you forget just how little space dog fights have really progressed in a lot of games since this came out. Still just as good. And it suits the Deck.
Going to try Tie-Fighter next which strangely shows as unknown compatibility. Then Alliance. I used to really like that one playing as a freighter pilot.
