Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.

Re: Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.
Hrmm... That reminds me. I should set up a FAQ...

Very basically, it follows the 158th banshee squadron throughout its history, from parts consisting of a war between the Earth Alliance and the Colonial Coalition to parts decades past FS2. Act I Is set during FS1, Act II during FS2, and frankly that's all I'm positive of right now, because it looks like the previous team wasn't either.

 
Re: Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.
in the released mission, i feel like some should have skyboxes, but all that shows up is black space (aka no stars).  am I doing something wrong.  using only exposition files and updated tables

Re: Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.
Which mission? There were about 19 or something like that released, 12 Exposition missions. I've actually only had the chance to read the briefings of the Exposition missions in notepad.

 
Re: Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.
i think the 5th exposition mission, and some of the others
i dont know about the test missions
i know the original team had screenshots with skyboxes, so i was wondering if they should work
i have some missions with nebulas (clouds), but no skyboxes (completely blank black skies instead)

Re: Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.
SCP build issues. Some builds like 158th, others don't. We're trying to "persuade" the ones that don't.

 
Re: Things that you wanted to know but were too afraid to ask.
i do't really like the exposition missions, they're too... hard.

so it follows the banshees throughout their history? i thought of doing that with my own squadron, but... *looks at his title*
Sig nuked! New one coming soon!

Is this dead? Or are the developers still working on it with many things under wraps?

We are not dead. It is however being worked on in the same fashion that one would escape a 5 foot thick concrete cell with a plastic spoon.

It's really slow at first because you can't do that much with a plastic spoon. But come November, water will get in the cracks of the concrete and freeze, causing the structure to splinter and collapse, and you can escape to your freedom.

It's like a game of Tetris. The farther you get in the game, the more **** happens when you make a mistake.  :mad:

I believe the ships in the 158th model dump may be used freely.
