A moderator/administrator can do that, too.
But that'd be rude.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Ermm, a small problem here. Just downloaded it and the campaign starts out great.. but in one of the early missions, when you
Spoiler:
*FINALLY* catch up with the Duke, it's disabled and you have to supposedly eject to board it
I can't get the Alt-A thingie to work. Nothing happens. I thought that it's maybe an issue with Taylor's 3.6.10 XT1028 build, but reverting to the official 3.6.9 didn't changed anything. I also checked my key bindings, but there's Alt-A isn't assigned anywhere.

Maybe somebody already encountered this problem, but going through the 40+ pages of this thread is kinda daunting perspective :nervous:

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
It isn't supposed to be bound. Alt+A is used because it generally won't enable another function of the game. Did you press Alt+Shift+A? it doesn't need to be capitalized, only press Alt+A.

Tried all the combinations I could think of - alt+a, alt+a with capslock, alt+shift+a, shift+a, 2nd alt+a... No effect.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Alt-A is the default binding for "autopilot" (as used in the Wing Commander TC, among others). You may have to see if what the binding is for Autopilot in your options list.

Alt+A is used because it generally won't enable another function of the game.

That was the plan :)

ROFL, you could have told me it was supposed to be assigned to Auto-Pilot ^^ Now it works fine :D

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Happens. Thanks for the assist. Awesome campaign, the only annoying thing are the cutscenes. I'm using modified fov - the ships are sometimes cut and the subtitles like to get displayed in place of engine glows, making it kinda hard to read.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
The entire campaign is annoying for me because I can't look at a Terran ship without getting 4 FPS.

Oh, I know the pain... Have been working on GeForce 4 MX for a looong time, until I changed the entire PC to one with dual-core processor and GeForce 8800 GT. At last no drops in fps ! ;)

Colecampbell666: Try turning down the lighting settings if you haven't already. That works for me, and brings the FPS up to acceptable levels.

Disable specular flags and turn on img2dds and caching between missions. My prehistoric PC can run the mod just fine.

This is probably somewhere in the 41 pages of this thread, but it isn't in the first five, so how do I fix it?

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
Aye. The mediavps are somewhat necessary for Blue Planet. Also, if you have the mediavps, get the appropriate mod.ini from the first post of the thread as well.

Re: RELEASE - Blue Planet: Age of Aquarius
First of all, put all the files in their own folder inside your FSO folder. Then put the attached files in the folder (they are in archives so that I can attach them). Then select it as a mod in the launcher.

Thanks man!
It seems to be working fine now.
See ya.
PS: You made a really beautiful show in the begining hum?

I have downloaded the patches.  Small problem:  What's actually in the .rar files is not what the instructions say is in the .rar files.  Rather than being a mission file and a table file, they contain additional VPs.

The MediaVP patches are supposed to be in vps. And you punch those vps to your \mediavps\ folder. They contain table files and whatnot, and thanks to their names, they are read before the actual mediavps, so that the corrected information in them is used instead of the flawed information in the mediavps.

Edit: Ahem. 'xcuse me. You were obviously talking about the Blue Planet patches.But the same thing applies. They include the files they're supposed to. But it's easier to make a vp and tell people to throw it into the blueplanet folder, instead of releasing the actual files and telling "Put this to\blueplanet\data\tables, this to \blueplanet\data\missions yaddayaddayadda...". Right?

You would think, but the instructions say to put them in data/tables and data/missions.   :P  Okay, I'll just stick 'em in the Blue Planet folder and see if it works.
