I put a new toy in FRED.  Check the background editor for details once the new CVS builds are ready.

You will worship me for this.

This one has already been Mantised and resolved.. Reason was change in the name of the entries $Show Weapon Models: -> ($Show Primary Models: &) $Show Secondary Models: most likely for better XMT functionality. Fixed reference is in FSwiki. So if you are capable of making those changes to your tables on your own please do so. I can not post new tables as i have no idea what models & mods you have been using.

ummm...latest FRED2 builds (12/20/05) are not found.
It gives me that 404 error

Or are they uploaded yet ?

[phreak]

They were there, but the filenames were wrong.  I corrected the filenames on the FTP.

[redmenace]

What were they named?

[phreak]

12202005-* instead of 20051220-*

[redmenace]

lol, sleep deprivation

[Cobra]

can you check the sound system for this? i get a lot of stuttering in the briefings and debriefings, and the music stops after the second stutter.

Ooh, very nice.

FRED crashes when I try to use it though.

[karajorma]

Worked fine for me. Yay! One less reason to ever use nodepad!

[Cobra]

oh yeah, the texture replacement option crashes FRED.

[karajorma]

No it doesn't. Not always.

Just tried it 5 or 6 times in a row and the only time it crashed was when I attempted to import from a mission that included backgrounds that weren't in the stars.tbl for the mod I was using (and even then it wasn't consistant. Trying to import the standard FS2 backgrounds into a mission using Lightspeeds nebs simply resulted in a black background). 

[Ransom]

Ah. It only seems to work if you load missions from the same data folder that FRED's loaded from. Otherwise it crashes, even if the missions aren't using nebs that aren't in the loaded stars.tbl.

[karajorma]

Nope that's not it. I loaded a copy of FRED that used my SoR folder and MediaVPs folder and then imported a mission from a third folder and it didn't crash.

Something else is causing the crashes.

[Ransom]

Hmm. Well if I load FRED with no mods, I can import backgrounds from the base data/missions folder fine, but I can't load any from a mod folder that has no stars.tbl in it. And if I load FRED with that mod, I can load missions from that mod's mission folder but not from the base missions folder.
