I was creating a mission that would have the player fly the shadow fighter but when i tried to set it as a player ship, it didnt work. I'm wondering if anybody ever plioted a shadow or vorlon fighter? Is that even possiable?
-
You bet. I used to do it all the time. If you're making a single mission, make sure the ship type and weapons you want are selected in the team loadout editor.
-
Then why wont it let me select it as a player ship?
-
Just change Alpha 1 into a shadow or vorlon fighter. If you're trying to change the type of ship in-game in the ship selection screen then make sure you have some Vorlon and Shadow fighters available in the Team Loadout editor in FRED.
-
Um, start with a blank mission, select the default fighter that it auto-creates, change its class to Shadow Fighter. Make sure said craft and supporting weapons are available in the team loadout editor, make that ship part of Alpha wing = done.
-
It is, hmmm. Also the Raider Wars missions in the tech room allows me to pick anything but the vorlon and shadow fighter
-
Because RW was written before those ships were released.
-
If it doesn't work with the loadout screen, simply make the mission into either a "red alert" or "scramble" mission (can't remember which one), so the selection screen for the fighter isn't even available.
That way I was able to test out the Seraphim bomber back in vanilla FS2 ;)
