Title: small things
Post by: Angelus on January 16, 2009, 04:26:01 pm
I played a couple of missions so far and i like it, great work guys.

I have a question regarding ST:R, 'cause i have sometimes trouble with 3.6.10 builds.

Some models like the Valk and the Apollo are the original ones ( low poly ), right?
I remember someone posting that there is no HTL model of the Apollo.


In stage 3 of the briefing for mission "Secret Recovery", you hear the line "Your objectives will be to protect Transport Epsilon 1."  twice.

Apologies, should this has been asked/ mentioned before.

Are you properly using both the normal MediaVPs and the FSPort MediaVP?

Umm, if you're playing "Secret Recovery", you're playing the original ST, not ST:R. :p

We'll fix that briefing line though.

Why bother? :doubt:

And yes, Angelus, there is a seperate Media VP for the FSPort-only ships and weapons. You can find it, and installation instructions, in the 3.6.11 release thread (near the top of this forum.)

I DL everything via Turey's installer, and followed the instructions.

It seems i missed the part where you have to re-name the folders Fsport-str to Fsport_str.
I also copied and pasted this in the mod.ini from the instructions:

[multimod]
primArylist = fsport_mediavps;
secondArylist = fsport,mediavps;

Is this correct? There was a thread where a member had trouble with the Media.vps because of the A in primArylist and secondArylist ( Goober replied.
Can't find it anymore, and i remember vaguely that this isn't relevant, not sure though.


Anyway, restarting the real ST:R campaign.  :p

Thx!

What a difference! Awesome work and many thx to everyone involved!

Yay, i has HTL fighters... :D

Only one small question, though.
In the "default" ST, the Repulse was the HTL version, in ST:R it's the older ship ( no flashy lights on the landing strip ).
Is that intentional or did i again manage to screw up?

I checked the folders, the mod.ini, the launcher, i followed every step from the instructions.
Everything is as it should be.



EDIT: Nevermind, just checked the fsport vps, it supposed to be the old cruiser.

Indeed. It's related to retail-compatibility. Will possibly be fixed when 3.6.11 comes out.

And it's not a ****ing cruiser; it's a Yamaha Tri-Moto destroyer.

Also, the Repulse wasn't in the original ST. :p
