Re: FS2 RTS in the HW2 engine, Total Conversion
Yeah i know, but it laggggggggggggggs sporadically at everywhere bewtween full sensors manager and Fightercraft zoom.
I had a similar horrible problem the last time I played through the main campaign (with the Tactical Fleet Simulation mod, really excellent, you should all try it (on moddb.com).
If you're running a Nvidia card(s), make sure to set up a profile in the Nvidia control panel specifically for HW2, and turn off all the special Nvidia features, especially anti-aliasing, as this causes even the most powerful hardware to suffer heart attacks. If you can't turn them off, turn the features as far down as they go or switch them to "application controlled."

Re: FS2 RTS in the HW2 engine, Total Conversion
Yeah, my laptop has a card that's based off of NVIDIA's 9600 chipset. So, if it's an NVIDIA issue, looks like I'll have to fire up my desktop just to play this (since it has an ATI card for it).

I have also another graphic bug : on the nameplate's place on the Orion, I got a blank surface.

But that won't prevent me of playing  :D
Never far away from HLP and from a computer with an installed FreeSpace.

I know about that bug, it's an issue with the mesh I haven't managed to fix yet.

Been busy with a lot of stuff and haven't worked a lot on this mod. I don't intend to let it die though.

what's the status of this mod? It's almost 2 months ago since your last reply and I'm looking forward to another update with more capital ships :)

Re: FS2 RTS in the HW2 engine, Total Conversion
Yeah. You'd better have a look at Bloodfleet's mod if you want a retail FS2 to HW2 mod. I'm working on BP now - well, I'll start working back on it once Reach stops monopolizing my free time...

Re: FS2 RTS in the HW2 engine, Total Conversion
Is there any way to run this mod on the Mac version of HW2? I don't think there's any way to add shortcut commands (although there could be, I'll have to check later).

Re: FS2 RTS in the HW2 engine, Total Conversion
There are ways to add shortcuts to running a .app, but I forgot what they are.  My coworkers told me how to do it with Chrome's dev builds to enable the 3d hardware acceleration support, so I know it's possible.

Re: FS2 RTS in the HW2 engine, Total Conversion
This should work on Mac, given that the main reasons for a mod not to work on Mac are scripts, which I haven't added yet. For more info about running mods on Mac, I point you to the Tanis Shipyard.
