Harvey Green, Software Developer 2k upvotes by Elazar Leibovich, Bulat Bochkariov, Spencer Chan, Shreyas Panduranga, (more) Thank you for playing Wing Commander? C:Nuc1 This is from an anecdote by Ken Demarest, one of the original developers who worked on Wing Commander I on the PC… … we were getting an exception from our EMM386 memory manager when we exited the game. We’d clear the screen and a single line would print out, something like "EMM386 Memory manager error. Blah blah blah." We had to ship ASAP. So I hex edited the error in the memory manager itself to read "Thank you for playing Wing Commander!" Written 21 Oct, 2012. 86,862 views.
