Title: A vote for my campaign and I need a bit of help on something.
Post by: WS-Thunder on October 13, 2001, 04:13:00 pm: Ok, right now I'm trying to figure something out. I'm working on a new campaign. The idea is to follow each part of the Freespace series and have a little side story along each one. They all focus around a group of main characters. The first one I plan to be mostly to see what people thing of the trilogy and so people can become interested and help make it better. The sequals I plan to go all out and make it really cool. I plan to have tons of voice acting, music, and possibly even some movies for it. I'm talking a high quality campaign here. At this point in time, I'm wondering if people would rather see the first one in FS1 or in FS2. If you want the first campaign to be FS2 I need some information to help me make a few of the levels. In Freespace 1 if I set up the events like this:

Subspace drive off-line
when
true
break-warp
alpha1

Subspace drive on-line
when
<
distance
alpha1
waypoint path1;1
750
fix-warp
alpha1

I could set it up so that you can only jump out at jump nodes. This made the game rather interesting and added some new, different features. However I'm not sure how to accomplish this same thing with FS2. I tryed to do this but when pass the node I can still jump. In FS1, if I passed the node it wouldn't allow me to jump. So what is it. FS1 or FS2?

Post by: WS-Thunder on October 15, 2001, 11:22:00 am: I would like a few more votes. I'm thinking of going for FS2 even though the storyline takes place a year after FS1. The sequal will take place at the same time as FS2 though. Venom is currently working on one ship. I just made some more concept art work and I am now trying to rebuild all the levels so they work with FS2. I also need someone who is good at finding information. I need a star chart, system information, events timeline, and some new ship names for it.

Post by: Unidan on October 15, 2001, 03:45:00 pm: Yes, FS2. I have FS1 but I'm too lazy to get it out. But, people have done campaigns in FS2 where you can only jump out in the jump node. Heck, they did it in the main FS2 campaign.
