My PC i worked on is dead,and now i've got a new more powerful one.Luckily i saved all mod data on my flash before it was lost.
Missions will be done faster with better quality,i may even install FSO,if i can.

More new stuff:currently working on making a new demo that has more connections with the campaign itself,and more missions,
                         i am also working on a trailer that will be released along with the demo and finally i'll post few screenies soon.

Install FSO as fast as U can. Working on retail FS is a horror. When You discover all the new features, such as many new SEXPs in FRED, You will never go back to retail FS.

I will most likely install FSO,but not yet.
End mission,texture replace and camera SEXPs could help.

My PC 504MB RAM,1.6GHz should be alright for installing it.

Also,working on retail ain't really a horror,i'm not actually using any too complex SEXPs,i ain't getting any crashes.

But,first thing i need to do is to finish retail campaign,for the 8th time.

FSO can run with all retail data; you don't need any extra VP files to make it work.

schrödinbug (noun) - a bug that manifests itself in running software after a programmer notices that the code should never have worked in the first place.

"I am one of the best FREDders on Earth" -General Battuta

<Aesaar> literary criticism is vladimir putin

<MageKing17> "There's probably a reason the code is the way it is" is a very dangerous line of thought. :P
<MageKing17> Because the "reason" often turns out to be "nobody noticed it was wrong".
(the very next day)
<MageKing17> this ****ing code did it to me again
<MageKing17> "That doesn't really make sense to me, but I'll assume it was being done for a reason."
<MageKing17> **** ME
<MageKing17> THE REASON IS PEOPLE ARE STUPID
<MageKing17> ESPECIALLY ME

<MageKing17> God damn, I do not understand how this is breaking.
<MageKing17> Everything points to "this should work fine", and yet it's clearly not working.
<MjnMixael> 2 hours later... "God damn, how did this ever work at all?!"
(...)
<MageKing17> so
<MageKing17> more than two hours
<MageKing17> but once again we have reached the inevitable conclusion
<MageKing17> How did this code ever work in the first place!?

<@The_E> Welcome to OpenGL, where standards compliance is optional, and error reporting inconsistent

<MageKing17> It was all working perfectly until I actually tried it on an actual mission.

<IronWorks> I am useful for FSO stuff again. This is a red-letter day!

<MageKing17> TIL the entire homing code is held up by shoestrings and duct tape, basically.

Are you positive? I know at least at one time it needed one vp file.

Edit: apparently it does not need a vp file. Could have swore it needed mv_core.vp or something...
