Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
I use the 3.6.10 unofficial beta. The thing is that all other ships appeared as they should have had.

About the ''Pride...'' -

Well, the ships seem to travel in random ways ( Cruiser / Frigate ), so the result of shivans attacks are always different. I'd also include ship loadout, because three warships, each in their own separate directions, cant be disarmed fast.

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
I tested the campaign with the 3.9.10 Beta and had no probs. Odd. Sorry, can't say what the problem is.

The Lima, the Mirage and the Shivan corvette follow waypoints. The Shivan cruisers just follow the ai-chase-sexp. Harpoons are quite good to disarm ships, especially such like the Moloch which have very poor turret armor.

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
Spoiler:
I don't know why but your FS doesn't seem to know the SD Lucifer class. The only way to correct this as far as I know is to extract the missions from the VP and to edit it in the editor (In your current mission, there is some sexp that adds the Luci to the techroom. You just have to open it and insert the SD Lucifer again, then it should work). The Cthulhu appears in SF_II_E3M2 (That's the one with the Arachnas), SF_II_E3M3, SF_II_E3M4 and SF_II_E3M5. I'm sorry for the trouble, but I can't explain why this problem appears. :(

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
Here are the missions, but I don't know what I could fix. It's all working fine for me, after all. Did you really extract the mission files, opened FRED and then opened them from there or did you just open the .VP and double clicked on the file? The latter's not working. ;-)

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
I just finished this and I really liked it, I agree with Max, drop the prequel and go for pat III.  (unless you have writers block).  Also, surprisingly, the dreaded Red Alert Bug decided to stay in it's dark little corner this time  :nod:.  Also, there were several places that got the good ol'  :eek2: or :jaw: response.  I like campaigns like that.  Oh, and

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu

I´m playing (and enjoying a lot) the stormfront campaign. However, the mission smoke screen i have to scan the cthullu, a gtf ulysses (it must to be a joke with the Lucifer...) and, although i can scan all the subsystems i can´t have a whole ship scan... and the mission simply never end...
Whta should i do?
thanks!

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
Seem's to be everything all right with the mission file...

Extract the mission from the .vp, open it in Fred and make the Cthulhu a Lucifer. I can't say what there is wrong, maybe you made a mistake with the installation?

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
Or the usual. You have a vp or a table file somewhere it shouldn't be. A popular choice is to install InfR1 to the root freespace directory, so that it can easily intefere with everything else.

If there's a ship model in a mission that the game can't find from the used table file, it will automatically be replaced with a Ulysses. This is what leads me ti believe that you've installed something or another the wrong way.

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
ok...
I´m not sure if i installed infr1 in the root, but i believe not because i sually create separate folders for eachm campaing, but i will verify it. Anyway, i willl stract everything from the vp anyway... it worked before in the flame sof war, may solve it now.
Thanks.

I have made the vp extract without success. I checked the mission in fred and it appears as lucifer... however, i still not being able to solve the problem...

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
I still say that you have a vp or a ships.tbl somewhere that has a higher priority than the Storm Front one. Most likely some non-retail file in the \freespace\ folder. Or something extra in your Storm Front folder. If you are absolutely sure that there aren't any rogue files floating around anywhere and you still have the issue, I can really only say wtf.

Re: RELEASE: Storm Front II - Cthulhu
Well, I just got this and Storm Front I a few days ago.  I just finished playing through, and this is rockin' awesome. 

I suppose that, since this was so recently released, we can't expect part three anytime soon?      :P
