Didn't want anything spoiled for the main campaign I guess. Is there a working link to the old demo? I wouldn't mind taking a peek at it.

The main download page. http://ntv.hard-light.net/ntvdloads.htm
EDIT: Great. Now you got me interested. Now my inexpliciable need to fix everything computer related is becoming irrestible. Guess now I have to fix it.

We may create a side campaign in the future, set during the beginning of the rebellion...I said "in the future" because the team wants to stick with a main campaign plotline that, at least at the very beginning, is as much close as possible to the one of the main FS2 campaign. In other words, NTV will begin during the Battle of Deneb(the second one :D) and the player's effort will help changing the course of events. Obviously, don't expect the NTF to crush the whole GTVA fleet and conquer TV space because it'd be nearly impossible - we'd rather go for plausible compromises.
You will also see in-game cutscenes like jumping sequences to other sectors of a given system. I planned to keep the use of cutscenes to acceptable levels(if I will ever release Steadfast you'll find out what pure cutscened missions are) to preserve the immersion. The result may be something that takes its distance from FS2 gameplay, but the atmosphere will be pretty much the same... :)

Well, fixing the demo seems hopeless. It always says "Missing [at least] 5 ship classes" when loading any mission, the Cyrene always shows up as the dreaded Ulysses model of doom, Subach-7s are invisible, and no cap-ships have any engine effects, only the wash. All of this stuff happens regardless of what build and/or media vps I run it with. Oh well. Dragon, could you try it and see if you get the same errors, just so I don't feel alone :(

Does that mean that we will encounter the GTVA's/FS2's Alpha 1 and get to kill him/her ?
