Title: No available campaigns....
Post by: ChuckJustice on June 14, 2007, 12:47:40 pm: I just finished running the installer, and then ran it again because it said there were some errors, which didn't seem to resolve any of them, as I got the same error messages the second time, and nothing was downloaded. Anyway, FS2-Open seems to be working properly thus far, but there is only the FS2 original campaign available in my campaign room menu. If I'm not mistaken , the FS1, as well as some user created stuff should be there as well, any Ideas?

Among those, Data, ereg and mindspring are part of the FS2_open installation, and any others are MOD directories. Select one of those and click OK, then run the game, and the campaign for that mod should show up.

Completely blank? You don't even have the Select Mod and No Mod buttons?

Cause all you should need to do is press select mod.

Post by: Airy on July 22, 2007, 09:09:50 am: i got a question very related to this one.

so, as i understood it the mediavps mod enchances the graphics of the game, however you got to select it via this mod pannel.

which means, you can't have mediavps together with any of those other campaigns that you get for your FS2?

correct me if i misunderstood something. :)
