[17:42] <Droid803> does anyone know what "SOUND: c:\games\freespace 2\fs2_open\code\sound\ds.cpp:1428 - OpenAL error = 'Invalid Value'" means?
[17:43] <IssMneur> Droid803: It means you OpenAL is being weird, unless you have sound problems don't worry about it
[17:43] <Droid803> they are having sound problems
[17:43] <Droid803> music stops playing.
[17:43] <IssMneur> if you are having sound problems install the latest OpenAL
[17:43] <IssMneur> 1.14 IIRC

Try updating your OAL?

Could you also try with a debug_filte.cfg file that contains

if updating didn't work?

I doubt this remains relevant for any current systems, but:

...2) Your OpenAL install is corrupt (Windows users check Windows\System32 for either ct_oal.dll or nvopenal.dll. These are the OpenAL 1.0 .dlls and they are causing the screwup. Delete them and run the OpenAL installer again). If that doesn't work try deleting OpenAL32.dll and wrap_oal.dll and then running the OpenAL installer again.  NOTE: Re-installing drivers for your sound card, or installing drivers for a different sound card might install OpenAL 1.0 over your current OpenAL.

I have openAL version 2.0.7.0 which appears to be from 2009.  Somehow I don't think this is the version I should be running.  Also, what should I have my sound settings be:

Options (currently using *)
   Generic Hardware
* Generic Hardware on Realtek HD Audio Output
   Generic Software on Realtek HD Audio Output

If anyone has a link for the version of openAL I should be using, I would appreciate it.  The version I am using came in the install for WCS.

This is the currently recommended download link, directly from the FSO release thread.

Took me a while to give this a go. (There appeared to be a rush download of everything from This to Shmup to The ashes one......etc etc)

I Like it

Thanks very much!

Serious question: How much of the story for the Ashen Wings campaign did you bother to come up with?

Zero. It all was just a front for the troll of "Oh god what am I playing now?! Why are there lolis EVERYWHERE!!!?!"

As far as I know, it was freespace quest. With the idea of 'create your own story'. Droid would create one mission, post it on hlp and then by majority vote it would be decided what the next course of action would be. This first mission was actually exactly that, the start of freespace quest. Then somewhere along the lines Droid decided "**** that, let's create something completely different!". Ashen wings being the working title.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

That is essentially correct, except Ashen Wings wasn't ever the working title, the name itself was something I randomly came up with close to release.

The screenshots for Ashen Wings, however, do come from existing missions, mostly a selection of One-Shots that I made when I was very bored, with a heavily modified version ShadowGorrath's SOC campaign base that he sent to me ages ago (Notably, the addition of some ED ships for screwing around). The missions aren't good at all, not tested, and they don't even run properly on more recent builds, and actually has nothing to do with the first mission of DE even except that I'm a lazy bastard and I resused the Hecate's name and figured it would be a good troll screenshot or something, I don't know. I had a huge collection of random one-shot or mini-campaigns which I never bothered finishing and figured it would be a good place to give them their two seconds in the spotlight before deleting them off the face of the earth.

As for the actual "story" hedged out for freespace quest? It didn't go past more than one or two potential choices.

Stealing stuff? Huh... o_O
Anyway, have you deleted everything? You could release it even as a incomplete modeldump like Project Outreach. More random stuff is always welcome.

DE isn't supported on 3.6.14, you need a recent trunk build.

Important: This mod WILL NOT run on 3.6.12 nor on 3.6.14 RCs! You should try to play this mod on a recent nightly, which are not produced during RC period, so you need to compile one yourself, or use the one I've linked!

It's even in the OP!

[HeliosRX]

Well, hi forums.

I currently use a Mac OSX computer, so I'm unable to use the 8688 or 8670 builds posted on the OP. Could somebody please help by compiling an OSX version?

I want this awesome mod! 

[SpardaSon21]

There's an easy and affordable solution to that: when it comes time to upgrade your PC, buy Windows.  It will be much, much cheaper than buying a system from Apple at massively inflated hardware prices.

[jr2]

Yeah, but it doesn't help him now.  >.>  He needs help now, and, if he prefers Mac OS, well...

Anyone who knows how to compile on a Mac can has help him out here?

Wait... actually, Helios, Macs can usually dual-boot with Boot Camp.  Do you have a Windows 7 license from somewhere?  EDIT: Like another laptop or desktop you own that has Windows or something?

Places I've been there's a special subforum where all the OS and hardware and phone OS and Steam vs. GoG and console warrior arguments are consigned to devour each other so they don't derail things like mod release threads.
