The picture demonstrates beyond doubt that ghosts, despite being insubstantial, can still damage their bodies by wearing a corset incorrectly.

How do you dodge homing missiles successfully on Ace and Insane without the afterburner? I can dodge them on Hotshot without much trouble, not only in the original Descent but also in Descent 2 and D2X-XL, but every time I try to do it on Ace I end up getting hit by all three.

My exits and relevant triggers are exactly like the ones in Descent: First ...

:idea: The best thing is to run wine from the terminal and see what's missing, since it normally tells you what dll it's looking for. NORMALLY! I'm trying to get a free game to run with no luck, at the moment...
That was actually one of the first things I tried, but I just get an infinite number ...

Has anyone gotten Polytron32 to run in Wine? So far all I've accomplished is getting it to freeze at the splash screen.
