I've been digging for god knows how long to find the mission pack that converted the normal single player missions to multiplayer. I know that they were once made becuase I found an old download of them here at
http://archives.volitionwatch.com/fs2/missions/missions.php3?MissID=368
But it's broken and I can't find the mission pack ANYWHERE!
Please help, me and a buddy want to play the single player missions all the way through.:mad:

You are my hero!! Thank you man, I appricate it ALOT!:D
One question though, is there any way to continue where we left off at? Or mabey extract the missions form the VP file on a mission by mission basis?

Unfortunately, I do not believe there is a way to resume a multi campaign in vanilla FS2. Maybe in the SCP version, but you'd have to ask.
There are VP file extractors out there. I use the one called VPView. I think you can get a copy from here (http://www.descent-network.com/cgi-bin/descman.cgi?module=vpview) . If not, ask around.
On the other hand, and if you wish, I could extract them myself and send them to you zipped. Just drop me your e-mail and I'll fire them off.
Be warned that I realized a small, but common, error that I didn't get around to correcting. Alpha (and Beta) wing frequently has default orders as set by the wing editor in FRED. But because there may be human players in Alpha and Beta, the default orders do not execute. (To correct this, you need events. I haven't done this for a good many of the missions.) Be sure to give Alpha (and maybe Beta) orders at the beginning of missions to ensure they actually do something useful.
Of course, if you have any suggestions, send them along! It might give me the motivation to do some more fiddling with the missions.
EDIT: Be wary of using the extracted missions because, as you know, some missions use red alerts and the like, and may not function properly without some sort of campaign link.

I would be forever grateful if you could do that (zip em and send them to me, I'll even test them all for you.) :)

I always take control of my wing when I 1st drop into a mission. Never had a problem. usually my buddy and I split that wings between us (he gets beta and I get alpha, depending on the situation).
Again, I appricate all you help. Thank you very,very,very,very much :D
