Re: RELEASE:Secret of the Ancients
I get an error message when starting the campaign.

Code: [Select]
Can't open model file <fighter04.pof>
<no module>! KiFastSystemCallRet
<no module>! WaitForSingleObject + 18 bytes
<no module>! <no symbol>
<no module>! <no symbol>

Does this campaign use FSPort? You may need to edit the mod.ini.

Edit: IT should be fixed now.

Re: RELEASE:Secret of the Ancients
I tried the first mission. It's an escort mission. :( And I had to wait 2 minutes for anything to happen. There wasn't any talking or anything to fill the time, so it was kind of boring. It could be improved by having the pirates arrive a lot sooner or have some transports talking between each other. Making a fun escort mission is hard, especially since we've been through so many that they get tiring after awhile (and all campaigns seem to start with them :p).

Also there's a number of textures still missing from the mod. Most notably the Apollo. I looked around in the tech room, there's a few more too. (Maverick, Fury and a few others)

There's a number of spelling mistakes and grammar errors. Now I'm guessing English isn't your first language, so it might be best to find someone to help you proofread your text. Makes everything much more enjoyable.

That said, good work on actually getting something out there. :)

Try ticking the 'use 3D models for ship selection' option in the launcher.

Also, downloading the campaign now.

Re: RELEASE:Secret of the Ancients
I like the first mission, but I think it have a lot of waves of enemy ships, also the distance between the player and the enemy is tremendous, I am not criticizing,  just giving my opinion, I will play the rest of the missions of course, : D

Re: RELEASE:Secret of the Ancients
There's something wrong with your ships.tbl (and you probably should have used tbm's), but as a person who doesn't really do any tabling, I cannot help with the issue. It's just a warning that popped up with a debug build, so it's nothing that would prevent people from playing but still.
