F/A-18 Hornet Korea - Hornet's Nest

[@Digger513]

Omg I remember this game, can't believe there's gameplay footage lol. It was this that made me fall in love with the Hornet and what led me down the rabbit hole of DCS 🤣

[@joe18425]

This is the very game I played on my first pc

[@steeltiger5000]

So good for it's time.

[@md80tom]

Still good!

[@bosbanon3452]

I still remember missions from this game like Rolling Thunder, Neighbors, GNAT, Wrecking Crew, Orient Express, Waterfall, Seoul Solution, and some other that i don't remember it's name like hunting SCUD, shooting down recently trained North Korean Su-27 pilot while they are still in the helicopters transporting them and attack a Collum of Mig 23 migrating to other North Korean air base

Pure vector graphics looks so cool, just like Hornet 2.0 in 1994/5 on a MacIIci, when I was a little kid!

[@Omahamaho]

i still play this game in my driving sim rig once i replace the wheel with my stick few combat flight sims even come close to this

[@ferdeboergd256]

I still have the manual of the Spanish version!

[@RealDarko]

This was very very popular back in the day in Spain, as it came with a full manual in spanish. It's a very nice sim that was not so popular in the rest of the world I think. IIRC this had a Desert Storm expansion? If that's the case I never tried it.

[@damsonn]

Hornet 3.0 (released before Korea) had Desert Storm as a setting for its missions.

[@RealDarko]

@@damsonnGot games mixed then, lol.

[@bosbanon3452]

As an Indonesian i really don't understand the manual😂😐

[@joshuapettus6973]

@@RealDarko Actually there was a version called "Operation Iraqi freedom" that used the Korea engine. For the life of me I can't find any information on it, but I know I had it as a kid.

[@tudzs8770]

hello and sorry to ask that late but how did you downloaded the game?

[@damsonn]

I have a retail CD of this game.

[@divinuminfernum]

areyou playing this in windows 10? how do you get the 3dfx graphics? with nglide? dgvoodoo?

[@damsonn]

Yes, this is Windows 10, although I'm using PCem ( pcem-emulator.co.uk/ ) emulating PC running Windows 98 with 3dfx graphics card and Pentium 233MHz MMX CPU.

[@divinuminfernum]

@@damsonn nice - i have a pcem setup similary but i find it to perform quite poorly - i tried running fs2000 in it but it had unplayable frame rates. Hornet Korea runs nice in windows 10 in software mode, i just havent tried it using 3dfx yet - have you?

[@damsonn]

@@divinuminfernum Not in Windows 10 natively. FS2000 was really poorly opimized and run really bad even on top shelf PC specs back in the day. FS2002 run better than FS2000 actually on the same PC.

[@divinuminfernum]

@@damsonn ah right, well fortunatley fs2000 does work for me pretty well in windows 10 actually, i think it uses my 2nd intel hd card instead of the nvidia one
