noredalert.rar

I've disabled the red alert tag from those missions which have it, which will make those missions a lot easier, so it's really an imperfect quick fix. I'll put a link to it on the first page in a bit.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Thank you very much.

But now that I see it will mess up game play, I will make a new pilot instead.

Heh. Heh... okay i'll leave now.  :nervous:

EDIT: New pilot didn't work, guess I have to use the patch after all.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Gah, a new problem.

Spoiler:
I'm at the mission where I'm required to board the duke by hitting alt-a. All it does is give me a top-down external view of my ship. No matter how close I get, nothing happens.

Help!  :confused:

It seems you have the controls assigned to that function you described. Just a wild guess, but I think Alt+A needs to be assigned to nothing. Might want to check your control settings.

Turns out alt-a was bound to top-down view.

I unbound "alt-a" and "a", but Its still broken.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
  I just played this yesterday, and this is the best campaign I have ever played.  My jaw hit the floor on the opening cutscene and stayed there until the end.  You made really good use of the cutscenes,  I'm gonna have to learn that.  Also the music went perfectly whit the events, giving them an extra stab of emotion.  There were a few bugs, the red alert bug is alive and well on my computer so I just FREDed out the red alerts, and I got the whole rainbow lasers thing. (but that one is actually kind of cool, you should have just said it was meant to be that way  :P ).  I do have a few questions though.
Spoiler:
 On the last mission, when the GTVA attacks Sol, I was aware that Command was lacking in common sense, but evil!?
  Will the Vishans (I think thats what they're called) reapear in the sequel.
  Will the Vasudans be in the sequel.
  What about the Shivans?
  How long until the sequel!?  :D

Alt-A must be asigned to the auto-pilot option , then it'll work just fine .

And on a side-note - rainbow laser fix is to make the texture filter higher ( trilinear , or whatever it's called ? ) .

That dilemma was funny.  :lol:
You want to bind alt-a to auto-pilot and everything should work out.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Alright, I got thru that mission. I encountered a red alert bug when loading the next mission and it wasn't in Darius's red alert fix pack so I extracted it myself and disabled the red alert. It gave me some error messages when I initially loaded it in Fred but I ignored them. When I load the mission, the game crashes with the same error messages. Here:

Code: [Select]
Error: Invalid subsystem name.

In sexpression: ( when
   ( is-event-true-delay "fire beams" 3 )
   ( fire-beam
      "Temeraire"
      "turret02"

      "turret03"
      "Kyton"
   )
   ( fire-beam

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
You lost a turret between the previous mission and the red alert.

When you disable the red alert mission, you generally need to replay the previous one to clear out the pilot in my experience.

Finally i finished that campaign without any more errors. That was the most impressive campaign I've played since Transcend. Nice work!  ;):yes:

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Transcends ending sucked IMO.. everything went back to normal..

  
Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
As I understood it, in Transcend, the very laws of reality were on the verge of collapse at the end. If everything didn't go back to normal we'd still have a massive nebula located "nowhere" encompassing at least one star system, an inexplicable Second T-V War, and a bunch of supposedly dead guys running around preaching death and destruction and killing everything in sight. How exactly would you have closed that?

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
By the way , which mission did everyone like the most from Blue Planet ( if you had to choose 1 only ) ?

 
Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
That's a hard one. But in terms of sheer awesomeness the penultimate mission takes the cake. The amazing music, the pair of titans pounding away at each other in the distance, a real BoE feel to the mission overall... epic, is what it is.

Spoiler:
Although the one where you kill the Sathanas is also really good too.

EDIT: Spoilers added to appease angry guy below.

And nothing in that "description" of the penultimate mission constitutes a spoiler, Kappa. So don't yell at me over it.
