Release 2 of Storm Front Episodes I and II is now at the brink of becoming finished. Atm I'm sure I will have done it until Sunday. This time, I'd like to have a few other people having a look at it before the release.
What you have to test are:
Storm Front I - Prophecy
Storm Front II - Cthulhu
Storm Front II expansion campaign
Would be glad if two or three volunteers could be found. :)
-
Sure i'll bite.
-
Good, then we have three people already (which doesn't mean that nobody else may join). Are you a native english speaker?
-
I'm not
But i'm pretty proficient in the english language
-
;-)
-
I'm a natvie English speaker.
...
I'm just not very good above Easy difficulty, so I can't really evaluate balance all that well.
-
This is good. I wonder if a part III will follow someday.
'Course it will.
@Scotty
Maybe you can have a look at it. But I'm pretty sure all the ugly mistakes have been removed now.

Hello,
I still need a native English speaker to proofread the campaigns. You would not need to play the missions (though you still can if you want), just correct the spelling/grammar in FRED.
Anyone?
-
Yeah I can probably do that
I'm a native English speaker and my grammar and spelling isn't too bad
-
Okay, you have a pm. But be aware: That's a lot of stuff. ;-)
If anyone else likes to join, you're welcome.
-
Could you send me a pm with a link to the missions? I'll look through it real quick if/when I get the time if you want.

I need to attach some error pics in a pm but I don't think I have that option. So I will do it here:
(http://vw8zng.bay.livefilestore.com/y1piRffkFJfz9YcgNrK2rOpdjIFnRl_3paTGip2ZgTsr0oTkvWHltyWIZRFW4zdnPK_CYPr6PPBeB0lSFVB4ppBF0jfcF3FZ9Jm/New%20Picture%20(1).png)
That indicates that you didn't open the mission the way I told you in the pm.
http://sebastian.ramrod-network.de/Freespace/FRED_StormFront.7z --> Put both the .exe and the shortcut into your FS2 main folder. Right click on the shortcut -> properties -> shortcut tab -> The command line must show: "[location of your FS2 folder]\fred2_open_3_6_10.exe -mod StormFront_1+2 -mod StormFrontStock -mod mediavps"
If you launch FRED via the shortcut you will be able to load the mission files.
Oh, and all error msgs are in your cache. You can put them into a .txt file via STRG+V and then post them here with the code tag. ;)

The command line must show: "[location of your FS2 folder]\fred2_open_3_6_10.exe -mod StormFront_1+2 -mod StormFrontStock -mod mediavps"
No. Nonononono. "-mod StormFront_1+2,StormFrontStock,mediavps" is the command line argument you want.
-
The command line must show: "[location of your FS2 folder]\fred2_open_3_6_10.exe -mod StormFront_1+2 -mod StormFrontStock -mod mediavps"
No. Nonononono. "-mod StormFront_1+2,StormFrontStock,mediavps" is the command line argument you want.
:confused:
I use that command line in the shortcut on my own system and everything works just fine for me.
-
Yes, it does work. However, splitting up the -mod argument into several arguments is not the recommended way of doing it. Yes, this is me fussing over minor details, just to make absolutely sure that everyone uses the one way that is guaranteed to work everywhere, every time.

-
No, no, no, no!!
In the FS2 launcher you just open the mod tab and select "StormFront_1+2". Then you launch the game.
I was talking about FRED before. Make a shortcut to "fred2_open_3_6_10.exe", then right click on that shortcut and add " -mod StormFront_1+2,StormFrontStock,mediavps" to the target line. By this you can launch FRED properly.

That is funny :P
That's not funny, that's an error. I didn't put that in there, believe me. ;-)

Some error in FRED while generating the mission file. That definitely looks like the tail end of a XSTR entry.
