Template:Infobox

This page regards issues and fixes to Homeworld. Other games in the series include Homeworld: Cataclysm and Homeworld 2.

Where to Buy

You may be lucky enough to find a re-release in your local shop, or a preowned version online.

Serial Key

The serial key is only required during setup.

Patches

Homeworld 1.05

Graphical Tweaks

Hardware Acceleration

Using OpenGL or D3D (in the video options) enables hardware acceleration, which gives you 32-bit colour, and the ability to use graphics techniques invented since the game's release. Hardware Acceleration works best on Windows XP or later when the game is run using compatibility mode for Windows NT 4.0.

Anti-aliasing

With an ATI card, you can force Anti-aliasing (and anisotropic-filter, etcetera.) in the Catalyst Control Centre. For the best results use the OpenGL renderer in Homeworld, as there are some issues with the menu with using D3D and anti-aliasing. Your mileage may vary with an nVidia card.

Widescreen

Widescreen can be enabled by changing the ScreenHeight and ScreenWidth registry keys in HKLM\Software\Sierra On-Line\Homeworld

Save Game Data
