It has it's uses and it's very good at what it's supposed to do. Just never imagine that it's meant to be a replacement for send-message. :)

Yo. Can you guys assign me a mission?

You know, you're allowed to pick your own mission...

I prefer to let people pick a mission cause that way they can choose something they'd enjoy FREDding rather than simply being stuck with a mission they might not like.  

As I said before pick out something from campaign 3 you like the look of. Once I've confirmed it start FREDding the mission. If you have problem or once you've done as much as you can post a new topic in this forum with the title [FA] Campaign 3 Mission (whatever you pick).

...


Are you on the same way of thinking at MindGames? I would not like to work on Mission 18c, if possible.

Feel free to pick something else if there is something you feel you could do better justice.

Don't let that stop you giving it a try though. We'll just see who makes the better version. Remember that Singh worked on his own while you'll have the help of the FA testers :)

Cobra I had suggested trying campaign 3 originally but the mission you picked is fine. I've adjusted the first post to assign you Campaign 2 like you asked.

Whoops. I read fast, about a 150 words a minute, so I overlooked your suggesting of campaign 3.

:confused: So what, we actually MAKE the missions and campaigns? Maybe I'll take campaign 3... Is it too late???

And to add a little bit... My ****ing FRED2 program keeps crashing on the first mission of my new campaign. It's probably because I added a custom Orion nameplate. :doubt:

:nod:

The idea is to get a few of the more expert FREDers to help people get a bit of experience in mission making through collaborative development, whilst also creating some nifty campaigns.

There are two options to the nameplate replacement system. One replaces the model. Use that one.

Um... the spoilers are meant to not show up.  They're spoilers.  Do you know what a spoiler is?

If you want to read the spoiler, simply highlight the black area.

And please watch your language.  Both here and in your other threads.  This is a family-friendly forum.

There are several reasons FRED can crash. Are you sure this is the problem?
If you do not want to struggle on, create a new thread and give us that mission. One of us could actually fix the problem for you, if you are not enough persistant. Otherwise, keep up with patience. You learn twice more if you hunt down and kill a bug on your own than with help.

Sorry. And how was I supposed to know that? I'm new to forums, remember???

Well, yeah, it never started crashing before I made the nameplate.
