Title: RE-RELEASE: Dimensional Eclipse - The Singularity (COMPLETE)

As you may know, the previous release of Singularity, as a sort of side story, was "incomplete" so to speak due to me having used an asset I should not have been playing with. Well, I finally got around to rebuilding that part of the mission using a different model, and wrapped up the campaign - didn't sit well with me to have something incomplete "released", so here it is!

The Singularity - Complete Edition: Magnus von Sternberg, an ex-corporate enforcer working for Banshee company, is hired to investigate an uncharted Transpace Phase Lane at the edge of Terran Space...

Features:
Everything that was in the original Singularity
A proper ending to Singularity Space (RiP cargo container boss)
An extra mission
Some new ship(s)

Requirements:
DE v1.1b
FSO 3.7.2 RC1+
MediaVPs 2014
A Decent Computer

Downloads
Single Package (Mediafire) (http://www.mediafire.com/download/7c7c8sic3uaancl/DESingularity.7z)

Installation:
Ensure you have the mediavps 2014 installed properly.
Ensure you have DE 1.1b installed properly in a folder named 'DE'.
Create a new folder in your freespace2 root directory titled 'DE Singularity' and unpack the .7z files into that folder.
Run the mod by opening the launcher and selecting 'DE Singularity' folder under the mod tab.
Start FreeSpace 2 via the launcher and create a NEW PILOT.
Select the 'DE-Singularity' campaign in the campaign room before clicking 'Start' in the main menu.

Droid, you sneaky bugger. I didn't realize you updated this too! I will be giving this go as soon as I can get out of the office.

Aw it ended. Really fun. Especially the last mission. Does it have alternate endings?

I'm pretty sure the end-end is the same though, which is why I didn't really consider them different endings, there's only very minor differences.
It's nothing worth replaying again to see, just cosmetic differences so that the dialogue choices have -some- effect.

I really liked the way you used Shivan ships with black lasers. Very cool.

What version of the FSO executable are you using, badpenguin? Also, please post your log file. I've lost track of the directions to do so. Will someone please post those? I can't even think of the file name right now.

Please post your fs2_open.log file.  Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post.

Sounds like the base mod isn't loading. Gonna need to see a log file, as mentioned.

Sorry for the late reply, somehow missed this.
This minicampaign requires the base Dimensional Eclipse v1.1b, which doesn't seem to be loaded with your configuration. Check your mod folder names with mod.ini.

Try switching the game's language to English. I believe that error happens when the language isn't set to English.

Okay, just overwrite the DE_Core.vp file with this. (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/17350885/DE_Core.vp) This just has the strings.tbl file removed.

So, I don't know if anyone here has been keeping track, there is a new installer/launcher called Knossos. It even lets you upload your mod or TC to the back end it works with, which is named Nebula. Whoever is in charge here should probably see about getting DE uploaded so that it can be on the new system. If you need help with it, go to the #knossos channel on Discord and talk to ngld, its author.
