Hey all
Sorry for starting a new thread, i know its bad form, but id just like to say.......goshdarn its good to be here been a freespace fan for ages and after finally getting round to having a gaming pc again, looked to see what was still here and all the old forums had closed.
thank heaven for you guys, now i only need the free time to get round to finishing freespace2 and getting on to all the missions made by fans.
:yes: :) :D

Hmm... you have the SCP? ;7 If not, may I suggest Turey's Installer? (Link under "Walkthrough" in my signature.)
EDIT: Oh, and :welcomeblue:
-
dang. missed it.
anyways, hello JC, im Titan (whoops, duh) i know speak for everybody when i say DONT LISTEN TO ME.
-
Greetings. First of all, seriously. Don't listen to Titan. Next, something useful. There are a number of funky things behind the Useful stuff link in my sig, which you can use once you've acquired SCP. Including but not limited to: LightSpeed's pretty Nebula backgrounds, Bobboau's stylish beams, a fixed training mission for the FSPort and a few HTL ships you can't get with the mediavps. Check them out and get 7-Zip for extracting them, if you don't already have it.
-
You really could use a HTML page\forum post to explain how to use some of those things.
Be warned though, that's kinda how my FAQ got started. :)
-
I'll get right on it.
-
Thanks for being welcoming guys....
ok
??SCP???
is that the source code
karajorma, thats a name i think i recognise
-
Yeah the SCP is the Source Code Project. If you have DSL/Cable/Something decently fast, use Turey's Installer to download 3.6.9 (the latest version) and you will be pleasantly surprised (quite an understatement actually). The installer is very easy to use and the thread is stickied at the top of the General FreeSpace Discussion page. Have Fun!
EDIT: and the Installer includes the option to download many of the best user made campaigns all pimped out for the SCP
-
Yeh, installing FSO isn't a big deal. Just follow the instructions of the walkthrough jr2 mentioned and you'll be fine. Just remember to install it over your FreeSpace 2 installation so that you don't download anything unnecessary.
-
Good to have you back :)
-
first mobius, now lobo? whys everyone writing in funky colors?
-
I write in Red because:
1) I'm an Inferno Fanboy;
2) Red has always been one of my favourite colours;
3) The Ferrari is Red, and Kimi Raikkonnen won the Championship;
4) The third colour of the Italian flag is Red;
:P
I write in blue because:
1) I'm protesting against Mobius' colroful texts;
2)I like blue;
3)Lada is a fine piece of hardware and their logo has blue;
4)One of the only two colors in the Finnish flag is blue.
-
My eyes are Blue and I like them, so you're just making me happy with your coloured posts :P
-
Fine then, I'm protesting against your eyes, too.
-
I'm not writing in flaming text because I can't be bothered.
-

My eyes rock. They have the power of seduction... :P

You're that ugly? Wow.

That I shall do, while waiting for this thread to be locked.

Ooh. Burn, me.

This is fun.

We can't have avatars, but we can make HLP a better place
for you and for me.
-
Maybe we could have light blue backgrounds and really neon pink text as default. That'd hurt some eyes.
-
Flipside is around... :blah:
But seriously, this is a good idea. Scrolling pages full of coloured posts is fantastic! :lol:
-
You know it's just a matter of time before someone comes down here and locks the thread...
Oh, and when Flipside pops up and locks the thread, I can edit this post to say "told ya so"!
Told ya so. (sort of)
-
Maybe the thread has taken on a new topic....pretty font colors...so there's no need for it to be locked...but everyone hide when flipside comes around anyways
-
Yeah, and once we get caught, we can start pointing at Mobius, yelling 'He started it!'.

Does it count if I lock it instead?
Quit the spam guys.
