I for one enjoy enigmas... 

Yep, they're great...provided they are eventually resolved. Nothing is more frustrating than an interesting, enigmatic plot that is never brought to resolution...

Where's my HL2: Episode 3?

[Mongoose]

Where's my HL2: Episode 3?

It's on Valve Time.

[JMN]

While playing the campaign, (3.6.10) in one of the missions I cannot move at all (mission when you meet Alpha 3 and two Phi fighters. The mission starts ok, but I can't move my ship, I cant even warp out. Too bad since it's a very good campaign...

[Cobra]

Red alert bug, use a nightly.

[JMN]

While using this version: fs2_open_3_6_11r-20100131_r5862
It's the same.

[MatthTheGeek]

Use a Nightly AND restart with a fresh pilot.

[sfwarlock]

I'm getting the same issue.
EDIT: with nightly build and fresh pilot.

[Priami]

Does anybody have any idea why there are no updated graphics when i try to play this?
I only get error warning when i start the game.

I'm using 3.6.12 INF build and 3.6.12 MVP:s.

[General Battuta]

Open the mod.ini in the Sync folder, change mediavps to mediavps_3612

[technopredator]

can anyone tell me what are these? After 'fs2_open_3_6_12r_INF_SSE2.exe' gave me a warning of about 30+ errors & warning I ran 'fs2_open_3_6_12d_INF_SSE2.exe' to have a more detailed .log. I think this is the only think wrong with the Sync campaign, I have downloaded the 01/18/2007 .vp, seems to be the latest. I have attached the .log & .cfg files in .7z file. Thanks in advance.

Sounds pretty obvious to me. The 'ballistic primaries' ship flag is obsolete and no longer required for ship using ammo-based primaries. Shouldn't cause any problem, but it can't hurt to remove it.

[Ryu Gemini]

I am having the same problem as JMN.  Same exact mission. 

Nightly build, fresh pilot, didn't help.  Its times like this I wish there were a cheat for forcing you to progress to the next mission (either for getting past this problem or just skipping missions until it in order to determine whether I managed to fix it). 


I can select between the weapons I have, but can't fire them.  Can't move, can't jump (well, I can activate the subspace drive but since I can't move I can't actually jump).  My ship lacks its normal shield indicator for that mission. 

Edit:  Looked around page 10 or so, found out what people were actually referring to with all this "red alert bug" whatnot you kept mentioning.  Got it fixed. 



On a side note, I must say.  This campaign almost makes me never want to use anything but the classic Herc fighter ever again.

You can always press ctrl-shift-S in the techroom to unlock all remaining missions in the campaign.

Does anyone know how to complete the "Purpose Calling" mission. After a bit of chatter you get told to go and 'investigate the signal', but there is nothing to investigate.

I've tried the mission with 3.6.10 & 3.6.12 and I still can not figure out what I need to do. Its as if some event if not firing.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Wasn't there a renewned version somewhere? If you can't complete the mission and you want to resume so badly, you could kill yourself five times, then the game gives you the opportunity to resume with the next mission.

Figured it out. Turns out I had somehow zoomed the radar in so I could not see the flashing bit on it that I was to investigate and being in a nebula I could not see a thing. Oops, I feel like such an idiot!

Well, you're not the first one. The radar range button combination is, by default, relatively close to the missile bank toggler (I think, I never really remember this one).

Semicolon or apostrophe, I forgot which.

[hansebee]

seeing that several people still look for the links... I dare to post the links to "Sync Restored 1.1" by SDM (Never, EVER post email addresses in the open where bots can see it -- The E )

---- http://www.freespacemods.net/download.php?view.743   hope that's in everyone's best interest...

no problems for me so far and the new Mediavps look awesome for this story-heavy suspense campaign.

[InsaneBaron]

I've found Sync interesting so far. Unfortunately, I'm kinda stuck.

On the mission "Downfall", where the gang are in the nebula investigating the "signal", I keep flying around trying to find the green blip. There doesn't seem to be anything there. I can literally fly through the radar blip and nothing happens. Is there a bug, or am I missing something important?
