Torrents are slow at the start. Try this http://www.filedomain.net/downloader/files.php?cat=5

there are also not to many seeders on the bittorrent. this means that ur download wil never go very fast. and i believe the tracker will go offline soon so after that ur torrents won't download at all as far as i know. (it's says that on the site where the torrents r located). so i think u have more luck at the fileplanet link in the other post

Actually, with a good client, they have DHT which enables torrents to be xferred even without trackers.

Which remainds me, I should remove tbp-bt.com from official download list.

It seems odd at first you soon realise that you'd be adding ships by mistake all the time otherwise.

There are a couple of walkthroughs for FRED in the Freddocs folder. Once you've done them consider taking a look at the FRED Academy to help teach you beyond that.

It's well worth it too. Primus got himself a place on the TBP team off the back of that :)

If you're stuck on stuff the walkthrough doesn't cover take a look at my FAQ. It cover a hell of a lot of next step stuff from immediately after you've done the walkthrough
  (There's also some more advanced FS2_Open stuff there too so don't feel too overwhelmed if you don't understand everything. There are some people who've been FREDding for years and still don't use some of the stuff I've got up there :) )

I bet (actually, I don't) that his favorite ship is the Centauri Primus Battlecruiser.

Hehe. You'd think so, wouldn't you? :p But nope. It's OCD.

Shouldn't it be "Prime" then?

Closest thing you have to that is HLP's Freespace Modding forum.

@IP
No. I didn't take my name from Optimus Prime, but Primus, the creator, "god" of transformers.

Actually the campaigns forum is generally considered the FRED one :)

General shop talk discussing campaigns, FRED included.


:)

More FREDders tend to hang out on that forum than modding so you'll get a quicker responce there too.
