A while back I was able to purchase Freespace 2 off of eBay. As everyone keeps on telling me, it's friggin' awesome. I liked it so much that I hunted down and purchased the original Freespace (now THAT took a while). The problem is, Freespace doesn't seem to want to work on Windows XP. I can get to the menu, but the darn thing refuses to run. A friend of mine let me know about the Freespace port, and right now I'm practically hyperventilating with joy. The problem is...I've never really done anything which could potentially alter the way Freespace 2 works on my compy, and I'm hesitant to do so without help. Therefore, from all of you, what I'd like is a step-by-step guide to tell me how to get FSOpen up and working in Freespace. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to HLP. Please keep all appendages within the installation at all times. Flamethrowers are located underneath all seats, however, due to the rising cost of oil, the ID / evolution debate (don't debate me on Whether or not there is a debate),V, and the meaning of life, the napalm has been replaced with Holy Water. Plasma rifles are located in the weapons locker, but only Admins,V, or a hyper-intelligent shade of blue have access to these areas. If you meet a Shivan in the ductwork it is most likely Carl, give him your lunch and back away slowly, odds are good you'll be fine. Recommend reading includes Karajorma's Freespace FAQ for general questions, and The Freespace Wiki for specific issues and questions.
Finally, 9th kill. :)
If you want to have an example of how FS1 and 2 can be with the SCP, check the 3.6.8 screenshot thread in General FS, it'll show you the improvements made by the people here and get the latest SCP version, anyway, welcome.

What does that mean?

"Sarafan the flavor of Mars"
I was commenting that your welcome speech is an awful lot like mine with few differences, however that was meant jokingly

It really is your speech, I simply copied it. :P
