Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
What exactly happened to Wings of Dawn? It's not able to be downloaded using Knossos, and I only found a Mega download link by accident, and I keep encountering an issue with the UI being really zoomed in, cropping all sides. Was it taken down from Knossos? Did the Knossos link just break? I really want to play Wings of Dawn, but I just can't get it working. Right now, I'm trying to get the log file.

I got the resolution working fine now (The flag was what was screwing with me) but I'm having an issue with the language settings. I can't get it to output English for what my wingmen are saying. Any ideas? I didn't realize the beginning of the mission was supposed to be unintelligible. My bad. Seems pretty good so far, just wish I could have installed it via Knossos

Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
Both Wings of Dawn Episode 1+2 and the original version are on Knossos. Are you sure Knossos itself didn't have a loading error on your end?

Every time I've tried to install Wings of Dawn via Knossos it says that it can't find fso_wod. Attachment enclosed

I've had to finally download Wings of Dawn manually (God I wish I had faster internet. Took like 6 hours) and its working now. I've finished the first few missions, and I'm liking it a lot so far. I wish the Knossos version would download, so I didn't have to keep banging my head against this wall.

Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
The Internet speed may be the issue here.  Knossos needs a fair amount of time to refresh and update its bits and bobs.
Campaigns I've added my distinctiveness to-
- Blue Planet: Battle Captains
-Battle of Neptune
-Between the Ashes 2
-Blue planet: Age of Aquarius
-FOTG?
-Inferno R1
-Ribos: The aftermath / -Retreat from Deneb
-Sol: A History
-TBP EACW teaser
-Earth Brakiri war
-TBP Fortune Hunters (I think?)
-TBP Relic
-Trancsend (Possibly?)
-Uncharted Territory
-Vassagos Dirge
-War Machine
(Others lost to the mists of time and no discernible audit trail)

I tried that, and waited until the modlist was refreshed. That image I sent earlier was directly after the mod list was reset. Can you download Wings of Dawn episode 1 and 2? That's the one I was trying to install

Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
It did install for me when I tried it just now.  Could you try first manually installing the "Wings of Dawn Builds" mod, and then retry Wings of Dawn itself?

If a man consults whether he is to fight, when he has the power in his own hands, it is certain that his opinion is against fighting.

I have the same problem as OP but "Wings of Dawn Builds" is not on the "Explore" tab in Knossos; only "Wings of Dawn Original" (which I can install) and "Wings of Dawn" are. I could find the Builds mod on FSNebula: https://fsnebula.org/mod/fso-wod

Clicking 'Install With Knossos' opens Knossos and gives me the error message "Mod fso-wod was not found!". How would I go about manually installing it? I've grabbed the archive from the "No, but I know exactly what I'm doing and I just want download links" section on FSNebula, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do with it.

Wings of Dawn Builds doesn't show up in the Knossos launcher. The image I showed earlier is what comes up whenever I try searching Wings of Dawn

 
Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
I also have this problem. I am unable to install episodes 1 and 2, and builds does not appear.

 
Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
This still hasn't been resolved?  I have the same problem.

 
Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
I'm also having this same issue when trying to download WoD via Knossos. Might have started with the new version of Knossos?

Re: Wings of Dawn not on Knossos
I have no trouble downloading or launching WoD through the newer knossos.net (see: https://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=98702.0), and it's far enough along that there's really no reason to use the older knossos unless you have to for some reason. Could those of you with problems give it a try and report if it's still a problem?

Ahh that worked, thank you! I wasn't aware of the .net version - this is really nice
