Title: Creating a campagin
Post by: stargate2008 on January 30, 2007, 02:40:12 pm

I'm currently interested in creating a campagin for TBP and I was wondering if I might find some support here?

If anybody is interested please post here or send me a pm.

Also I welcome everybody's comments and questions on this.

Did you try giving the ships initial orders to go to the waypoints?

You may want to give the walkthrough a try too. Just a thought. Good luck.

I will. I'll keep at it till it works.

I do have 0ne question, should I release a mission or two from the campagin as a mini-demo?

Releasing a mission or two is a very good idea if you haven't released anything publicly before. It gives everyone a chance to say what works and what doesn't in your campaign. Better to find that out after your first mission than after you've made 10, all with the same mistakes.

I will release a couple of missions by wedesday.

Heres a couple of notes:
1. I dont know how to do the radio chatter yet so if anyone can help me out with that, i would be thankful.
2. I expect to have the campagin finshed by late feb early march
3. This wont be my only campagin either, I have several ideas of creating more campagins.

by the way, is there a way to get the fighters to exit from the fighterbay? If so, how?

Title: Re: Creating a campagin

Chance arrival location from Hyperspace -> Docking bay (fighterbay). Change arrival anchor to the ship whose fighterbay you want them to emerge from.

BHX and EACW sleep until I finish the next 34 beta. Which will be done ASAP. I would like to get it out by early next week but I'm terrible at missing deadlines. After the new beta is out I can work on campaigns whilst I await feedback.

Also, I'm sorry that I haven't posted my missions yet. I've been busy and i been shot by Cupid.
