TFTWSD?
The fighter that wouldn't slow down. :D You snatched that from Simpsons when Homer was trying to remember the name of the movie, Speed. I peeked into it in FRED earlier today at school. Tonight I'll finally get the time to play these campaigns. And judging by these reviews, it looks like I'll have fun. :D

How would I go by redoing Return to Oz, if I am currently on the mission after????

EDIT:  One minor thing, you should say something if the Mammon goes down, because that's what happened.  I'm embarrased to tell you how the shield got down to 3%.  It was like 10 seconds away from node and so i sped up time, in 2 seconds it was down to three and it jumped....

Isn't the mission after 'Return to Oz' a red alert mission?  (Sorry, I don't remember...)  If it is, then at the bottem of the red alert briefing there should be a button that allows you to replay the previous mission.

You managed to destroy the Mammon?  (Is that even possible?)

I downloaded both campaigns, played a couple missions from the SoL campaign, and I have to say It was VERY enjoyable! Great work.

Im still in the middle of  "Derelict" campaign (its kinda creepy at times), so will play you campaigns as soon as I finish it

Tis actually. The Aeolus has a small blindspot beind its egine subsystem. If you can handle a few minutes f  engine wash while you disable it, you can blast away wit impunity.

Ah, yes, of course.  When I disabled the Mammon, I made a beeline straight back to the Custodian.

That was an irritating mission to continually fail, so I had to think outside the box :D

Major bug in Sol: a History, I cannot get any weapons. Oh by the way I beat Homesick and liked it alot, nice origional storyline, you should make a sequal.

It should work... you should have a weapons table in the tables folder and the weapons art, etc. in Inferno VP files (Core and EA) what you need to play SAH.

(I must apologise to all people experiencing bugs... I do feel rather guilty that you're experiencing all these problems...)

And a sequel for Homesick has already been through pre-production and is about to enter full production, as soon as I finish playing through Derelict. It'll be a bit more conventional in nature, so you'll be able to fly more than just Lokis or Hercs, but it'll still be charting the rather complicated life of Alpha 1 and will answer a few questions from Homesick, namely what the GTVA found on Iota wing...

I'm running into a rather irritating problem, and it's one I've had before in Derelict. Why it's happening, I have no clue, but Freespace is completely crasing in the 8th mission of the 2nd EAH campaign. I mean all of a sudden, BAM, I'm back on the desktop. I think it's several seconds after Delta wing arrives, but I can't tell. It's so hectic in that mission I can barely pay attention to what's happening when it crashes.

I actualy have a theory, but I'll have to look into it. I doubt it's the problem though somehow.

Edit: What do you know...I was right. It's either one of 2 things.

1.) My computer doesn't like Epsilon wing being on the wingmate display or...

2.) My computer doesn't like more than 4 wings on that display.

Because I renamed Epsilon wing to Sigma, and the mission works fine now. If anyone else has this problem, maybe they should try this.

That's... strange... aren't Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta AND Epsilon all present in the first SAH mission, 'The Last Stand'? Freaky...

I tell you, computers are POSSESSED!

Neither do. But EAC2-A8 has all the different signs of the zodiac! Twelve wings, that's gotta mean something!

Computers inhabited by evil demons intent on making life difficult for us fleshies - it's the only explanation.

I think the code only allows for 20 ships in wings Alpha through Zeta.  If you have more, it crashes.

Couple of quick bug reports for mission Hmsk-B5.

1) I got two depart directives. I didn't notice when they appeared because I was busy trying not to lose the support ship (I did anyway!)

2) I failed the mission and got the message stating that one followed by one saying I'd done an excellent job. Seems a bit odd to me. :)

There's one mission I find impossible in Homesick. Even on hte easiest difficulty setting. I'm too lazy to find hte name of it :p

Its the one where a cain jumps in, you kill it. lilith jumps in, you kill it. 2 cains jump in... There's no way to stop both the Cains from destroying the Shield. I've gone straight for the beam cannons in every instance, even setting all the fighters in the mission to destroy one of them while i destroy the other, but the Shield dies every time.

Arghhhhh... Help!
