Title: FRED Problem that needs sorting
Post by: T-Man on March 13, 2004, 08:24:45 am

Hi, i was wondering if anyone would know a remedie to a problem i've been having with my FRED.

Basicly, i design a mission, but when i reach a certain number of events in the mission, Freespace 2 refuses to play it (it justs quits to the desktop with no error message when i select it in the tech room).

This also happened when i had a mission involving the Gigas and Icanus from Inferno, along with some other ships.

Its stopping me from making proper polished missions. Any suggestions?

It's possible that you've reached the maximum number of events a mission can have but FRED usually warns you about that.

Have you tried opening the mission in FRED2OpenGL? Even if you're not using FS2_open extras the error reporting in that version of FRED is far superior.

You can find Fred2_OpenGL here (http://www.randomtiger.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/freespace/fred2_open_r.rar)
