i’m going through some of my Origin Systems boxes and found this treasure - it is the install guide for the Wing Commander: Secret Missions 2 addon.
if you’ve played the original game, you might already know that there are “winning” and “losing” progression paths based on your performance during missions. this was meant to advance the storyline towards either a terran or kilrathi victory.
this unfortunately meant that you would miss out on winning/losing path-specific missions, unless you played the entire game over and lost (won) on purpose.
the mission pack apparently has a fantastic character import utility that lets you unlock all missions in WC, without having to play them over. i wish I had known about this when I was a kid!
