Re: Trouble with installer
An idea came to mind. Perhaps the reason I am missing something is that I am litterally missing something, namely the cutscenes. Then again, I beat the campaign in only 2 days, so that may seem why it feels so short.
You constantly state that you think the campaign is short. Several of your posts seem to imply that you've only been able to play the last third of the campaign. Please keep in mind that there are over thirty missions.

Have you played all of them? Started in a training session, where the instructor tells you which button is for the afterburner and which is for the weapons? Fought the NTF? Encountered the Shivans for the first in 32 years? Explored the mysterious nebula beyond Gamma Draconis? Slain the Ravana? Crushed the NTF? Participated in the officer exchange program, serving in a Vasudan battle group for a while? Encountered the SJ Sathanas? Crapped your pants when the Sathanas started to move to GTVA space, threatening the survival of the people in Capella? Assisted the Colossus in defeating the Sathanas?

If you've never even heard of those events, you should really get the damn thing working and then play the campaign, before stating that  the campaign is too short and that there are loads of loose ends.

Seriously, I hope that you've at least tried the actions that have been presented to you. I'm sure one of them will eventually make things work again.

@Turey: Would the installedversions.txt in the \temp directory interfere with the installedversions.txt in the \Installer directory?

Nope.

If I didn't know better I'd swear he had a copy of one of the fixed campaign files I used to post for people who had a pilot error and wanted to restart the campaign at Bearbaiting.

@Talhoe : You should get the cutscenes. The plotline of the last mission will make a lot more sense then.
