Turn off deferred rendering. It should be either right above or below Disable Shadows.

The Intel HD Graphics you're using doesn't support deferred extensions.

Essentially, anyone trying to play on a laptop that for sure doesn't have a dedicated video card should turn off GLSL.

First off you probably wanna play in 32-bit color rather than 16-bit color. That aside, (without being able to look into your installed directory, I can only guess) you seem to have an extra file in your installed directory that might be causing problems?

Re: RELEASE - Wings of Dawn Episode 1
Review Time! (So spoilers)


The moment I saw this I downloaded it then played it through. It was awesome.

This really looks like Wings of Dawn in a way that Dawn is the protagonist of the campaign. Well Episode one at least. The characters are loveable for me: I liked that their names represent them very well like how Justice is portrayed as a "goody two-shoes" guy and Tempest as a temperamental woman. I wonder who Swifty is though.

The storyline was interesting though certainly different from the original. I don't know which one I like more. I am leaning towards the original since it's a little more complete than this but that may very well change when this gets finished. I wonder what you'll make out of Dawn being a "Cosmic Horror" huehuehue. I would like to ask, will you bring back other characters from the original Wod?

The missions were good in a way that on normal it was challenging but not on a frustrating level. My favourite was when you mine the asteroids and detonate them on by one. What I really liked was that when you are choosing your weapons there are no weapon models but screenshots! I often forget the names of the weapons I use in user created campaigns and only remember how they look so this helped me lots! Macross Missile Massacre FTW!

The visual novel style worked for me because I read some of those already. It fleshes out the universe in a way that you don't have to go to the Techroom for info. Character interactions are done well also.

The ships look awesome and are distinct. The character portraits are also well done (though Justice is a little iffy :p). Soundtrack is very similar like the other WoD so no complaints there.

The only negative I could find was performance but I think it's more on my end than yours. I got only one crash when I watched the Human/Cyrvan battle feed but the second time I did it went through it without a hitch.

All in all I enjoyed it extremely. I would recommend this campaign to anyone. It is a bit on the short side but which good campaign is ever long enough when you want to play it forever.

Providing you get a decent framerate then it should be OK.

It's possible, but your framerate is gonna take a dive playing on debug. Using the fast debug build (post 2 of this thread) should help, but...
You will also run into a few LoD asteroid related errors in mission 2 and 3, but you can savely ignore those.

But the game keeps crashing

Re: RELEASE - Wings of Dawn Episode 1
Played through it.

Maybe it's just me, but I had a lot of trouble with one mission and one mission only:
Spoiler:
The mission where you ambush the Consternation.

For a few reasons:
1. The briefing misrepresented the mission to me. I was under the impression there would be a lot more enemy fighters. The other half of that air wing that was mentioned
2. Tempest's Dragonfly is super delicate. I just started ~+K ing the Rays after three or four tries and fails (though selecting different weapons may have helped)
3. I didn't realize you were supposed to use anything to hit the Consternation other than the provided explosive charges. I figured it out after a while, but something should have been in the briefing. "Oh, and the bombs we're giving you probably aren't enough to deal with the ship. Shoot it while its turrets and shields are down if you can."

I also found the campaign too short, and I guess that's a good thing, because I wanted more to do? Hurry up, Spoon!
This is my only contribution to FSSCP

Re: RELEASE - Wings of Dawn Episode 1
About point 1. The number of fighters depends on your difficulty setting. (2 on medium, 4 on hard, 6 on insane)
point 3. the charges alone should be enough to take it down, depending on how you set them up. (but admittedly there is a slight amount of random to it, because of the scatter charges some times missing at unfortunate times) Using your guns is valid though! An alternative way to approach that mission is to keep the turrets supressed by putting in 5 target inhibiting charges and just detonate them in succession, and use your guns to take the ship down. (works on medium at least, on hard and insane the extra fighter wings won't give you the time to do that)

Re: RELEASE - Wings of Dawn Episode 1
The bombs you get should be enough, even if you never touch it. Just use the shield disruptor and targetting inhibitor then blow 3 scatter charges(long range is fine in this case) to get it down to 30-40% which will complete your primary objective.

Re: RELEASE - Wings of Dawn Episode 1
I've cleared all the missions on Easy and Normal. Will soon try hard and insane. I'm surprised you went 4 and 6. I thought you'd go 3 and 4. I wonder if the spikes in number of enemies will be that severe in other missions... :nervous:

As for me, I wonder if I'm the only one who went with 5 scatter charges and detonated them as soon as the distance count stopped decreasing and started to increase again. It worked both times for me, the first time I only needed 4 and detonated the 5th and dropped the ship to just 25% with that before it jumped out. The second time I needed all 5 of them but it did the job. Simple thought process, need to do damage, only one type does damage. Would have started messing around with the other charge types if this was not sufficient, but so far 5 scatter charges has seen me through.

I blew the two fighters away immediately with the most powerful missiles to pass this mission. Not going to be able to do that this time, and I don't do well with Dragonflies and that razor thin profile of theirs... :nervous:

 
Re: RELEASE - Wings of Dawn Episode 1
I had to experiment with the charges a bit, but I've found that:

Charge 1: Shield Disruptor
Charges 2, 3, 4: Scatter
Charge 5: Shield Disruptor

cripples it just about every time, so long as you wait to detonate 2 and 3 until the Contravention is within 600m of them. Heck, the first three charges alone are often enough to deal with it.
