Hi Community

Are there any recommended mods for the series X-Wing/Tie Fighter etc? Id love to play the originals in higher detail. I can find the X-Winf alliance upgrade but does that work on the original X-Wing or Tie fighter games?

Wondered what the latest favoured mods our from you guys?
There were a couple of conversions for X-Wing and Tie Fighter to be played in Alliance. I'm not sure if these work anymore though with the upgraded Alliance Craft pack or with Gog. Just make a backup of your copy first if you want to save your pilot.

The old games weren't exactly moddable the only time I tried a mission pack with X-wing hasn't gone well.
You can configure the DOS games to use a better soundbank:

(I strongly recommend Timbres of Heaven)

And the windows games have wrappers that allow higher resolution gameplay (though not widescreen, only stretch if you want), a version of which is already included in the GOG releases IIRC.

X-wing alliance is the most moddable, the most famous one being this mod for the graphics:
