Taking place after the events of A New Hope, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron is the video game where you fly around doing missions in various aircraft, and get some side story on Rogue Squadron itself along with Kasan Moor joining the New Republic. If you have played Shadows of the Empire, you may realize that this game is based on the success of its Battle of Hoth level.

Development Text#

Throughout the main executable are file directories.

At 0x239E4C is documentation of a decompression tool used by the developers.

FlobDec-Blocky16 Module: Cannot allocate memory services.

Blocky16-Tile
Decompresses a block16-tile video frame.

This module decompresses the block16-tile compressed animations used in Outlaws, Monkey Island III, and Shadows of the Empire PC. 
Images are deltad, so they must be decompressed sequentially from frame 0.

Music Test#

Enter MAESTRO into the passcode option. It allows listening to the entire MusyX-composed Star Wars soundtrack through the High Scores menu, in the Concert Hall.

Revision Differences#

The v1.2 patch included the Naboo Starfighter in addition to fixing a problem related to graphical corruption with a 3D accelerator card in 3DFX chipsets.
