Generations PC Game Question

Hi guys,

Not sure if anyone remembers the Generations PC Game?

I've been playing it on a Windows 95 virtual PC. Brings back memories from when I played it as a youngster.

I was watching a trailer on YT, and noticed a mission level that looks like it didn't make it into the game.

It features one of the creatures that Kirk encounters on Veridian, just before he meets Soran on the bridge to decloak the launcher.

The creature appears to be in a burgundy spaceship, with a window of space outside. (You can access the creatures' spaceship on Veridian with Kirk, but this is a completely different layout and location).

Could anyone shed any light on this missing scene, and where it would have featured in the game?

PS Is this best here or under the gaming section?
 
My first full game, and I still love it!
These 'henchmen' with their tail-wiggling ship looked a bit like the solanagen subspace aliens and were supposed to have a bigger role, but they were cut from the game.

Interesting! Do you know anymore than that?
 
It's the game with the most diverse levels!
Walk through a lake and ride a geyser as Data, have Klingons blown out into space as Geordi and explore an entire BoP for the first time, crawl through veins and organs of a living planet as Crusher, infiltrate a Romulan base as Troi, and finally walk through the Enterprise engineering section as Picard! No other game came close to that!
 
I got this game for my birthday back in 1995. I got a whole 2hrs of of playing it before my parents dragged me off on holiday! Loved the movies and gameplay. Kept finding new planets and liked how the storyline would end and you could also play Kirk. The ship battles were fun and I liked the sfx noises too. They don’t make them like that anymore!

It came out in 1997 ;)
The maps were so diverse, I'd love to play it again on Win7/10...

I've installed virtual pc 2007 on my Win 7 laptop. The videos aren't watchable so I skip those, but the game plays fine. The occasional time it lags when music starts on planet levels, so playing around with exiting and entering full screen helps, but it is fully playable. I tend to increase the CPU temporarily to help.

Oh, and a CPU killer enables me to get through that hole on Antilios. A bugger to do, even all those years back!
