My FRED2 is not working the mission are not the thing that loads it pop up for a sec and disappear can yall help me
-
Umm. Care to rephrase that first?
You attempt to load a mission, and you get an error that pops up, then fred crashes?
-
no i start the game up and go in the tech room
-
Then, I'm sorry, but I have no idea what you are asking. I don't want to be the grammar nazi here, but your sentence structure (and general lack of detail) is making it a bit difficult to diagnose your problem.
Also; the next post, the one by Brugger, is just as poorly formatted. :sigh:
-
are there a lot of ships in this in this mission like approaching 100
-
ok i will make a mission in FRED2 i will save it exit FRED2 than start the game up than i will go in the tech room were you can play the campaign missions and your own but the games the i maid will not come up it pop up for a sec and than disappear with out loading the missions
-
First of all, seriously..periods are good dude..
Second, are you sure you have it set to "single missions" at the bottom, and not "campaign missions"?
-
In the tech room at the bottom left of the screen are you hitting the single missions button, also are you using retail fred2 or some scp version
you beat me
-
@ Brugger: if it was 100 ships it would be classified as BoE-ish and it wouldn't work anyways. :p
@ Night Wolf: Personally, i recommend deleting the mission and starting over from scratch. Or, a reinstall of FS2 would do the trick. :)
Powering up photon beam cannons. Commence plasma core insertion. Fire!
:welcome: Night Wolf, and may God have mercy on your soul. :p (just kidding)
-
new freders don't always know that theres a limit to how many ships the game can handle, and it sounds like he just needs to hit the single missions tab in the tech room.
-
when i go in the single mission it do not load up and i know the limit of ship you can put in.
-
oh, i think i understand now.
when you go into the techroom, a small window pops up for a split second, but no missions load up. right?
-
is the mission file in the missions folder, or are you using any mods that could be breaking the mission

yeah and i am not using any mods
-
what tab do you have selected? Campaign missions or Singleplayer missions?
-
Singleplayer Mission.
-
did you check the missions folder to find out if the .fs2 file is in there
-
@ Brugger: I highly doubt that's the problem. All the FS2 singleplayer missions are in the vp.
@ Night Wolf: hmm... well, that strikes out my theory...
i recommend doing a full reinstall of FS2. that solves most of the bugs in the game. :)

missions made in fred don't go into the vp, if they aren't in the mission folder they won't show up in the tech room
-
....*sigh* i give up.
-
they do not go in a folder they will be in "my documents"
-
AHA. there's your problem. you have to set it to where the folder shows Freespace2\data\missions.
-
@Night Wolf - ok, not sure if I undstand that. the .fs2 is located in my documents? if it is, move it to the freespace2 directory in the data folder there is a folder named missions. It should look somthing like this c/games/freespace2/data/missions. Thats where it needs to be
damn i got beat twice this thread
-
Thanks i will see what Happens
-
Did they ever fix that thing where it saved into My Documents by default? Quite retarded, imo.
And for the love of the Gods, Night Wolf, learn some grammar! :p
