Title: Instal problem!!!??!
Post by: darkspy on January 30, 2005, 12:32:01 pm

Hi,

I've installed TBP and the patch, But then I tried to install the 3 campaign, I simply send it to the main file (with the installer) But when I open the game, there is no campaing at all... what do I do wrong?

can someone explain to me ho to install the campaing properly?

Thank you

Darkspy

Read the installation instructions from here (http://www.3dactionplanet.com/hlp/hosted/babylon/r3_downloads.shtml)  or here. (http://www.3dactionplanet.com/hlp/hosted/babylon/r3_readme.shtml#Installation)
If the instructions fails, please tell us specifically where you hit the wall.

The main TBP download doesn't contain any mission IIRC. You need to download Raider Wars, Earth-Mimbari War or the mission pack in order to have some missions to play.

Pump up the brightness on your display, you're probably missing them because of dark background.

- Run the installer of Raider Wars or Earth-Minbari War and install to the same folder as you installed the Base to.
- Run the launcher and once you've done configuring, launch the game.
- To play campaigns, select "Campaign" menu where you will see all installed campaigns listed. Select the one you want to play and click "Select" button, then click "Continue" button.

ok I solved the problem, it was just a directory problem...

But here is a new:)

I'm playing the raiders war campaign... I keep getting crashes, I guess the patch 3.1 should help it, but when I instaled it (I've been carefull with the directory this time) when I launch the configuration, everything... then I press Run but the program says couldn't find the ... .exe Do I take for granted that the patch is  not installed?

If you have WinRAR try downloading this (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/karajorma/freespace/Downloads/Convoy.rar). Unrar it and stick it in your main Babylon Project folder. If that shows up then at least we know that missions do work for you.
