Wings of Glory

Late Code Changes

The Wings of Glory development team decided late in development to convert the entire game code from 16-bit to 32-bit protected mode in order to increase framerates, which they determined were much too low to be able to ship the product. It took the team 6 months to do the code conversion, but doing it did improve the game's framerate noticeably. So much so, that they were then able to add fully textured terrain to the in-game land surfaces.
