... and I found two 3 1/2 Disks containing my first freding attemps from the days of FS1... they are about seven years old and lack a lot of things (directives; prober debriefs; possibility to fail the mission)
now I could reshape them for FS-Port (thus completly overhauling them), put them togeht to a campaign and translate them from german to english...
but that would be a lot of effort...
Do you think it would be worth a try?

As long as you feel satisfied / fulfilled at the end, go for it. :yes:
At the very least you can see how much you've improved FRE-SkillZ wise by updating them.

I've tried with some of the missions now -- it was easier than I've expected... I'll only have to add new BGs though
I'll add some new mission to make it work as campaign (the story arc requires 9 additional mission if you go for 1 mission per day and 2 missions with red alert)
At the very least you can see how much you've improved FRE-SkillZ wise by updating them.
It feels like the technoligical development from 500 CE to 2007 CE

My very first fredding attempt was in FS2, actually. It was a Vasudan AWACS vs. a few NTF ships on one plane (no Y axis usage) with no events (ie. no beams), one fighter (Alpha 1) and a lot of flying flak. :D

mine was a bit different... it was a mission were you had to escort two fenris for an assault against a Cain
it featured no arrival cues, a "Vernichten Sie alle Shivanischen Schiffe"1-primary objective, 6 secondary objectives (since directives were a completly unknown land at that time)
.... now it is called "The Familiar - Part I", features less shivans, y-coordinates (a common point with all noob missions I guess), more logic and ends on a red alert ---
oh, and it is linking with the story of the main FS1 campaign now (in the briefings and following Red Alert mission)....
1 - "Destroy all Shivan Vessels" for all you don't understand german

Joshua's first mission was the Fred tutorial...
-
My first mission had no Fighters.It only had capships with no beams (on fs2) :doubt:.And i was a ravana. :lol: And 2 Vasudan Destroyers attackng a Sathanas.i only like being cap ships. :lol:

Duel or the Shipyard?
-
My first FS2 misison had bells and whistles because of my FS1 fred skillz, but no beams which confused the heck out of me for about three weeks til i hit HLP or VBB i forget which :D
-
Eh my missions suck because I know nothing about the events or the other really cool stuff.And every mission I'm a Deimos. :D
-
Nothing wrong with that, you'd do well in the lightning marshalls...
Use the Freddocs, all i can say is once you've finished a tutorial it's like a baby panda has pooped loads of event knowledge directly into your brain!
:warp:
-
What is Lightning Marshalls? :wtf: Damn Pandas. :lol:

I still have six old missions I made in 1999/2000, from my mega 100 mission dynamic branching campaign. They are pretty sad by my standards now, but still halfway decent.
I never did the FRED or FRED2 tutorial at all and just picked up stuff by experimenting. :p
-
Well atleast now I know how to Put ships. :P

Put them on the PI site!!
-
I don't know if they even work anymore. I'll need to check. They ran off an older version of what later became the PI tables and use most of the same gameplay changes, but some things may be different enough to cause problems.
[edit] wow, you already got 5k posts? You've only been here for a year. :p

Was your response a helpful explanation of how to use beam-free-all or just DO THE WALKTHROUGH!!!!111. Cause if it was the latter, you were on the VBB. :D

Under a Pseudonynm of course........... JK47 strikes again.

It might interest you that I've finished a 17/18 mission campaign including my old remakes (with a nice story and all)
and currently I'm searching for reliable hosting service for the ca. 7.8 MB (other than Hades Combine -- it is in submissions there but nothing appears to move other there)

filefront?
