Title: Fred 2 3.6.10
Post by: RedBaron on October 27, 2009, 04:19:45 pm

Well I´m pretty new to Fred. Ive read that "Using Fred" walkthrough page and started to make some missions but I cant find them at the mission simulator.

I save them as ordered without changing directionary (thats "my data") even named as duel.fs2 ;)
I cant start the game from the editor "cant find path"

So I start it from the launcher.
But at single missons I can just find the 2 standard "untitled" big battle missions.

Another thing is that I have next to my "FRED 2" the Fred_2_open blabla 3.6.9.... and I´m using FS open 3.6.10

'My data'?

The missions should be in the /data/missions subdirectory of your FS2 folder.

These come with the multiplayer mission pack. If you want to get rid of them, use one of the .vp opening programs  to find and delete them
That is of course, if you actually want to get rid of them.

Nonono.  Do not, under any circumstances, advise someone to remove any files from the retail .vps.  That's a one-way ticket to a support nightmare down the road.

They are actually in the multiplayer mission packs but the same thing applies.  If you didn't create the VP you shouldn't modify it.

Why they are in the multi mission packs I don't know but they won't be in the next ones.

I think it was an oversight on the part of DW Hunter IIRC.

I think someone did fool around with that in FRED once, and even in the most advantageous position for the Lucifer, the Colossus still comes away with a significant chunk of its hull integrity intact.
