speaking of which, why isn't this highlighted yet?
I second this motion.

I'd do it, but I need an icon.

The 3.6.18 one used an icon specific to that build. I didn't go back further than that but I can have a look.

EDIT : Nope, they all appear to have been edited to add the build number and I don't know where the original image came from.

Here, I spliced these pixels together using the ones from other highlights (no build number):

I've downloaded it. I've been hungering for it. I have one campaign/mod in development in order to take advantage of the new pilot code, FreeSpace: Reunited (originally developed by NFSRacer and Soren). How to maximise the use of the code during mod development (For instance I want Alpha 1 to be a well-defined and fleshed-out character just like Blue Planet and Transcend before it)?

Uhhh

That is not a matter of the engine you're using. All the sexps in the world will not make a character compelling. The campaigns you mentioned make their characters interesting through their writing, not through the tech used.

Creating good characters and creating good missions are very different challenges.

The question you've asked is fundamentally impossible to answer, as it is far too broad.

indeed the only improvement on retail that i see that could directly help character development is the fiction viewer which iirc is vintage of 3.6.10 for stable builds.

No, my pilots are there but all my campaigns were reset

Yep, sorry, that's what I meant.  If you can post that log I can give you more info about why the campaign progress is gone when you switch to 3.7.0.

Actually, can you please rename or delete all the pilot files (*.plr) in freespace2/data/players and then post the log created on the 1st run of 3.7.0 after that?



Where do I find the log?

 
Where do I find the log?
It's a file called fs2_open.log, located in /data in your main FS2 installation directory.

well, that's odd, I could have sworn I replied to that latest question from mralexs.  Oh well! :)

Congratulations, and thank you, team!

 
 
here is the stuff

That fs2_open.log is dated April 2013 and runs 3.6.18, I suspect it's not the one related to the issue you're having now. It should also be in /data, not in /data/players.

New pilot code means I can use all mods with one profile?

has anyone looked at my new log and figured out what the heck happened to my pilots?

As much as one would probably apreaciate the sentiment, I still want to see a FSO 3.8
