Wing Commander

(This cheat may or may not work!)

From the CLI, type "cd" and the path to the drawer that contains Wing Commander. Then type "Wing h0 Origin&Tonic". The game will load normally, but when you target an enemy ship, press 'Shift' - 'F5'. Warning! Do not press 'Shift' - 'F5' when there is no enemy targeted or you will blow up, or when one of your wing men is targeted or your wing man will blow up.

There are certain large enemy ships in the game that must be shot at conventionally at least until their shields are down so that they will count toward successful mission completion.

(Another Source Said:)

On that pesky Ralari mission, target the first annoying Gratha. Now you wish that you could make up your own insults and screaming battle cries. A good one to wish for would be "Eat Fist Of God Cannon Kilrathi slime!!!!! Prepare to dieeee!!! KILLLLLL!!!!!". Try to think up your own. The better you have, the more fun it is...

Now press 'Shift' - 'F5'. Wheee! Booooooom! Just remember not to use the good ol' FOG when you have a friendly targeted - you'll fry 'em... Or when you have nothing targeted - you'll bring down the wrath of God upon yourself...

If you want to hurry up your own destruction, try 'Shift' - 'F6'. Boooom!

If you want that good ol' fried dashboard effect for the nice nuts and bolts seat of the pants ship feel, hit 'Shift' - 'F7'...

If you want to know all about the game, 'Shift' - 'F8' turns on status mode. Hitting it more times shows other fun things like free memory, etc.

A nice effect to try is charging da Claw at maximum A/B, hitting 'F6', then massacring your esteemed colleagues with the wrath of God... it's really fun :) Or for another nice effect, head towards a huge wave of evil fighters, and order your wing man to charge. Then slow down and call forth Armageddon by hitting 'Shift' - 'F5' until the fire storm of death overcomes all and the game is ended.
