Title: Forgotten Legacies SCP Support
Post by: Snail on January 03, 2007, 10:44:40 am
Quick poll to see if my campaign, Forgotten Legacies should go from retail to SCP.

There isn't really any porting needed. If retail can run something, so can FSO.

If you're close to release date you might as well stick to retail. You can always add enhancements in a second VP.

If you still have a lot of missions to build though you should swap. Retail FRED holds you back in ways that you can't imagine until you get used to SCP.

You could take the BWO route  :p

I voted yes.

Good luck with the painless porting!

Ill probably first start with adding some of the cutscene SEXPs to the first mission to make it seem as though you've been out there for a rapeload of time.

I say port it to SCP, but don't forget about the retail version. There are still people with Vanilla Freespace on this board and they don't deserve to have another campaign taken from them.

Well it's one or the other........ Unfortunately.

I have DLed all the stuff but I waited a while before installing FS Open. I read Karajorma's FAQ and said-mah let's try it!
