I have no idea of what happened to the previous tropic :S (of about 6 months ago).
(http://img490.imageshack.us/img490/5851/tda7li.png)
The full version (no ETA, could be another year (University, sorry :P), the full version will start two weeks before the first Shivan attack on Ross128 and will end some days after, and yes, the player will be in Ross 128 at that moment, doing "something" :P
You play for the GTI, this is a improved demo, this demo have 2 missions, the first one and... well I have no idea the mission number of the second, could be the 7 or 8... anyway, that will be one of the last missions of the cover operations in Vasudan Prime :P
What I expecting for the full version?
-about 25 missions
-some cutscenes :P
-This will be a great campaign.
-fix all grammar errors :P:P:P:P:P:P:P
For play this demo you need to have FS1_port 3.0.3 or 3.0.4 and Lightspeed nebulas.
Have fun!

Good. I will test this stuff.
Check your PMs..

Check your PMs..
NOOBODY expexts* the grammar inquisition!
Can't people use proper abbreviations? In this case, if you want to abbreviate "Personal Messages", the correct from would be "PM:s".
PMs refers to something else altogether (which I sincerely doubt that Shivans even have). And only Cylons (http://www.fiveminute.net/bsg/comic.php?ep=mini&page=12) would joke about that. Period.
Thank you and good bye. :lol:

HAHAHAHAHAHA, In the briefing of the first mission I called "Intrepid" to the Krios!! HAHA i dit not noticed this until how hahaha, one never knows when the bugs going to stop appearing :P
BTW, you will also noticed that when you are suposed to be stop and wait for docking, the ship can still use the afterburner... that another SCP bug... the player should not be able to use the afterburner under AI control :P, moving from the position may broke the entire mission xD.
-
Guys, sorry about that SCP, which that bug you simply can not complete the second part of the 1st mission... I recomend to delete the campaign file, and play each mission manually.

:wtf: Since when is a colon used for pluralization? :wtf:
LieutenantGeneralMobius wrote the plural of PM correctly. It's PMs, not PM's and definitely not PM:s. It's distinct from PMS because the S is in lowercase.
-
Hey Goober, you really need to lower the damage of those Barracuda missiles, 1000 damage is crazy :P

Meh, I dunno, it just feels odd to me. Perhaps there are very very different rules with abbreviation pluralization in English than in Finnish, but in my view "PM" is not an actual word, it is two words abbreviated to look like that but IMHO it's really not right to just slap the appropriate ending after it. So there needs to be something to indicate that there is actually stuff between the M and s... Perhaps my native language mixes me up then. :rolleyes: Not that important though.
I hope the campaign is released intact soon...
-
OMG, in the second mission Cancer 3 have Shields HAHAHA!, I have added that one just before upload the demo :P, sorry about it :P
-
Herra: I just wrote PMs....
muchacho :D English make sno difference between you singular and you plural. Check your PMs is refered to you, ShivanSpS!

I didt see any PMs there :P
-

Unless you're in Philadelphia, that is. :p
-
Really? Good for you.... I don't like the absence of differences between you singular and plural and the double meaning of "love" (friends or partners? Boh).
ShivanSpS. I sent you a PM time ago...it was about a link you have on your signature.
-
is nothing there, and please, everyone, stop the ridiculous grammar discution.

Shivan:
I have a BIT of a problem with your demo---I'm NOT sure if it's one of the bugs you have encountered before but here goes: My controls freeze RIGHT when the ship I'm supposed to dock with reaches the Jump Node; as soon as they call for me to approach to within 100 meters of THEIR ship my controls lock & my engines die--all except the afterburner of course; OH and my ship doesn't have any weapons...I get as far as I do because I use cheats to kill the Vasudan ships in the mission....
Any instructions need to be explained VERY slowly---I'm not VERY computer savvy.
NickM
-
that the idea, but why you dont have weapons? you can tell me the name of your fs1 port folder?
-
Shivan:
the folder is just titled: fsport; the folder with the demo I renamed to say the_dragon_awakes; I am unsure as to what other info you need.
NickM :confused:
-
that is your problem,
look in the mod.ini in the demo.
[multimod]
secondrylist = ,FS1_port_3,mediavps;
Change "FS1_port_3" to "fsport".
Anyway you should not be able to pass the second mission because of the SCP bug, so, fail it 5 times or use the cheat to going to the next.
-
Unfortunately I am not sure what you mean; I checked into the FS1port & found ONLY TWO items that come even close to what your mentioning:
One item called: fsport3_0_3.vp & another item called: fsport3_0_4.vp;
I can't find anything with 'mediavps' on it;
I DON'T EVEN KNOW what a mod.ini is...I don't know what it looks like;
nickm
-
He means your "the_dragon_awakes" folder. Go to that folder, not the FSPort one, and look around for a mod.ini (editable with notepad). Find the [multimod] line and edit it as necessary (in your case, rename "FS1_port_3" in the [multimod] line to "fsport". Since you renamed your FS Port folder, you have to edit the mod.ini so that it searches the correct folder for the files).

In English, sir anything can be a word.

OK I found the line you were talking about & changed it to fsport; the full line says:
[multimod]
secondrylist = fsport,mediavps;
Now I have an EVEN STRANGER case: I have passed the FIRST mission; now as the second mission starts, all I have is my HUD display & everything else is just black; I receive messages but I have no control movement and there is nothing but black right in front of me...
SO I am STILL in a bit of a jam then...

NickM
Docked player + Red Alert = BUG, you have 2 options, fail that part 5 times, so the game leave you the choice to go to the next mission or just use cheats to go on the enxt one, that SCP bug completly breaks the part 2 of mission 1.
-
[multimod]
secondrylist = ,FS1_port_3,mediavps;
Can you PLEASE permanently change that to "fsport"? It's what most everyone else uses.
-
I'd agree with Turey on that point. Giving a version number in a mod.ini is a support nightmare. As soon as port v4 comes out everyone's campaigns will stop working and we'll have to deal with the fallout.

Shivan:
Is there a cheat to 'skip' to the next mission? If yes what is it? As for failing the mission 5 times, I can't fly the ship or even see anything; all I have is a blacked out screen & my HUD display; none of my controls works;
I am very grateful for any of the help you give...I am edging closer to actually playing the game
PS: This time I DO have lasers AND missiles---I just can't shoot them.
NickM

ok, i have re uploaded the demo, i remove the part 2 and part 3 of the first mission, they are imposible to do it or test it by now...
And, if you create a new pilot your tech room will display the correct ships/weapon data, the same one that will be avalible to players in the first mission in the final version.
-
secondrylist = fsport,mediavps;
Shouldn't there be a space before vediavps, or does it matter?
-
hell, it will be better to remove those shines from the abydos ::PPPP
-
Guys...
:mad2: AHHHHH! I downloaded the 'new dragon' & now I have a new error message & the mission won't load!!
NickM
-
delete the previus folder first, and make a new pilot.
-
Guys:
STILL not working! I deleted the 'previous' folder for 'dragon' & created a NEW pilot & the same error pops up:
Error: Can't open Model file <Angel.pdf> File:J:|src|cvs|fs2_open_3_6_9.Final\code\model\Mode\Read.cpp Line:1899
anyways, IF it's any help, here's what's in the mod:
launcher]
image255x112 = tda.bmp;
infotext = This start in two weeks before the Shivan attack on Ross 128, you are a veteran terran pilot onboard the GTD Galatea, and you are accepted intro the Terran Intelligence, what things could happen? v0.2 Final Demo;

Anyone got any hints?
thanks ahead of time...I WILL get this game to work WITH YOUR help!
NickM
-
[multimod]
secondrylist = ,Fs1_port_3,mediavps;
yeah rename the "Fs1_port_3" to "fsport" as you done it before.
I really like getting rid of those modular tables, now i can be sure if everyone set everything right :P
-
OK...gimmie a second...I'll get back to you RE: results;
NickM
-
AAAAAAHHH! :mad: It STILL won't work!!!
here's what's in the Mod:
[multimod]
secondrylist = ,fsport,mediavps;
I created a NEW pilot & deleted the 'old dragon' folder; however when it started the game the following error came up:
Error: Couldn't open mission 'M1C.fs'
File:J:\snc\cus\fs2_fs2_open_3_6_9.final\code\Mission\MissionParse.ccp line: 6012
and Then I get a 'Fail to Load' notice....
I am STILL Determined to get this beast to work...what do I do NOW?
T.I.A.
NickM
-
hell, all of this for only 2 missions :S
Well, the problem was i think about incluiding the M1c in the demo, but i change of mind, but for some reason i uploaded the old campaing file, anyway, look at post 1, download the attachment, and place it in the_dragon_awakes/data/missions.
-
Yes...only TWO missions but IF I get this to work then your actual campaign should work then too! I'll see what I can do...write later to tell you how it went;
