Both work. Except that ShivanSPS's Pack places an old version of OpenAL32.dll to your \freespace2\ folder. You'll need to remove it after installing the Pack.

And do keep in mind that you must have a copy of retail FS2.

Dunno. Probably not. In which case both methods have their pros and cons.

That is also an option. A thread with all the relevan information/links is here (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,47640.0.html).

I have ISO's of Freespace 2.
:mad2: You must buy a copy of FreeSpace 2 (from Good Old Games) or we won't play with you!

Don't mean to sound rude or anything, but we'd appreciate if people bought their copies of FS2 legally, so that they'd support the factions holding the rights to FreeSpace.

Amen.

Remember: the reason there was no sequel to FS2 was because it didn't sell.  By buying the game from GOG, you can help remedy that.
