> Freespace could work, but the contols of that game is really wonky To each his own, but I would kill for a modern expansion remake of Privateer with FreeSpace controls and physics. And you don't really need a joystick for it, but finding a comfortable configuration scheme... takes time. Easiest would be to have the ship movement on the /keypad/ cursor keys for a coarse directioning and mouse for a fine targeting. That would give you 13 additional keys for the most often used functions: target next target in the reticle target next missile target subsystem in the reticle afterburner (KP_INS) countermeasures (KP_DEL) match speed (KP_STAR) full speed (KP_SLASH) have a power management nearby (INS through PgDown block) and shield management on the regular cursors. /Not that hard after all.../ Also FreeSpace is a space /fighter/ sim, it is somewhat another subgenre of spacesims with it's own peculiarities. Speaking about Roberts - take a look at Rebel Galaxy Outlaw [0], even by the video you will see what it is clearly a modern Privateer in everything except setting/license.
