So far lots of help on my grammar, but virtually zero help on FREDing. I need fredders above all, otherwise grammar part is pretty pointless

*snip*

I'll check the FRED part, i couldn't spell/ grammar check to save my life.
Still a noob in FREDing, tough.

Thats one and vastly better than nothing, thanks
I PM you shortly.

If you have any problems I'll be happy to help but I'm pretty sure you can figure out most of the stuff yourself.

I am yet to run in real problem, but it is certainly going to happen at some point.

Ok, awaiting PM.

[Miburo]

Sorry forgot about that, check your PM

Done. Check Forum, please.

[Miburo]

Done.

So anybody else willing to help with FRED? This project really needs more than one additional member.

[Angelus]

C'mon guys, join in and FRED a bit, don't be shy!

mate, I need to finish FortuneHunters 2261, I am already getting blackmail emails 
Not to mention WC Saga, other non-FS2 projects, learning Java, Real Life, ...

Then finish it...NOW Mr. Lennier Vidmaster [/Capt. Sheridan]

Not to mention WC Saga...

ah, right...

other non-FS2 projects...

*waves with hand*
There are no other non-FS2 projects

...learning Java...

*waves with hand*

You don't need to learn Java

Real Life...

oh, that's a tough one...

*waves with both hands*

you don't need a Real Life...



 

Where's the rest of the FREDders?

[Demitri]

I would love to help but my FERDing skills are as close to being zero as you could possibly get.

It's not real clear from your original post as to what the scope of the project is.  Are you fixing the original campaign to work with the latest release of the Babylon Project or are you doing a complete rewrite?  I've done some fredding work with the FreeSpace Campaign Restoration Project on troubleshooting and fixing problems with Campaigns as well as editing.  If you can use some help in those areas I would be glad to assist.

From first post:

Problem with this is all is that most of missions (80%) needs huge changes and a lot of rewriting, other part (15%) needs complete rewriting and planning, remaining (5%) needs just some rebalancing.

So its more of rewriting, even thou its a poor word for this. Would be better to say bug fixing + extending exsisting missions.
I take any kind of help that is offered in any form.
However I still do need dedicated FREDers, at least one more.

One more thing, I havent seen many (if any) comments on mission. Can't be that hard to finish it? Feedback me.

[starlord]

Please forgive me for Seeing this thread quite lately.

I once recieved a PM stating that terran emperor might be willing to contribute (although that remains hypothetical). I'll warn him of this thread.

[terran_emperor]

As I've said Said to Starlord, im willing to help with FREDing.

Just two things,

1) i need the original missions/campaign
2) I need to know which Build is being used...

Note: I may be able to FRED but i will need a tester, due to ongoing Graphics Problems. FSOpen has become almost TOO awesome for my poor old graphics card to handle.

My suggestions:
1) If we are updating to 3.6.10, then i suggest we wait for the selection of the Final Release Candidate to be made
2) Modeling the "Nova-X"

The "Nova X" Background
The Nova-X is essentially a "Fanwank" explanation for a visual mistake in Babylon 5.
But this page will explain it far better than I can

The nova-X should be easy to model...Add a modified version of the
Unfortunately my modeling skills are worth jack! So can someone point me to some "Idiot's guide to Blender" so i can teach myself how to make models

You can find a link to the original campaign in Miburos signature, and the build we're using is the default TBP 3.6.9..

[terran_emperor]

Thanks.

Its just with all this talk about upgrading TBP to 3.6.10, i though that was what was being done

[starlord]

Is the nova X indeed the "proto" omega? or is it another experimental vessel miburo?

[Trivial Psychic]

There's a Nova-X in Den5's "In The Beginning" campaign, but its actually more like an Omega-X, in that its got Shadow armor and better weapons.  There remains a possibility that the two had some creative collaborations, and chose to use the same ship.  Of course, its just as likely that this Nova-X is based on the rotation-equipped Nova prototypes, which were a result of the CGI blunder in the "In the Beginning" movie.

1) If we are updating to 3.6.10, then i suggest we wait for the selection of the Final Release Candidate to be made

The differences between RC2 and the official 3.6.10 build will fairly minor. There's no good reason not to start work with RC2 now.

[Miburo]

Nova-X that is used in Janus campaign(s) is Nova with Shadow textures and armed with Drakh style beam weaponary (light blue). It was originaly made by Pera for TBP 1.0 and he suggested to me that I would incorprate it to campaign, which I did. He was working at shadow spike/leg extensions (Omega-X style) to Nova-X, but I never received it from him (he went missing).
In revisited Janus (if it gets made) will be used Nova with shadow textures, nothing fancier.

Original campaign and TBP 2.0 patch can be found from my sig. Patched Janus is made for 3.6.9, but I really dont see any reasons why it wouldn't work with 3.6.10 either as karajorma pointed out.

Terran Emperor, check your PM folder.

I run TBP on my old computer with 1.6Ghz, 256Mb (or 512?) and very very poor 3d card (original machine I used to run FS2). Can't make it much worse than that 

[starlord]

Shadow tech already? I'm not a B5 expert myself, but isn't the minbari war period a bit early for the emergence/discovery of shadow tech? I simply would have thought the nova X to be the "soon to be" omegas.

Besides, Isn't janus described as being a nova dreadnaught? Shouldn't that make it that big battlewagon without any rotating section or did she get refitted as a nova X/omega?
