Mission: "Sixth Wonder" Unplayable with mediavps 2014

(1/3) > >>

bigchunk1:
I found an error that makes the freespace2 mission "The Sixth Wonder" unplayable:
 
When using media vps 2014 SCP version 3.7.1, the colossus refuses to destroy the hawkwood. It just jumps in and the beams don't fire. When I switched to mediavps 2012 and kept the same scp version, the colossus fired on the hawkwood and the mission completed like normal.

Is something wrong with the new colossus in mediavps 2014? Has anyone encountered this error?



On a side note the new models and effects look very nice so far.

General Battuta:
You gave your wingmen an ignore order on the Hawkwood. Tell them to attack and the Colossus will start firing.

This could be fixed in the mission file itself I believe, the bug has been around since retail.

bigchunk1:
I gave my wingmen a lot of "attack my target" orders but I don't remember giving an "ignore" order. I could be wrong though, I was pressing a lot of buttons.

bigchunk1:
Ok, nevermind this thread. I played "The sixth wonder" again with mediavps 2014 without issuing orders this time and everything continued normally. I was able to beat the mission with no issue.

That is some special sort of bug. Especially considering that command orders you to ignore the hawkwood when the colossus jumps in.

Edit: Grammar

General Battuta:
Yeah, it's  areally stupid issue that's been around since retail.
