Title: can't get beams to work
Post by: Soldierlozer on January 28, 2012, 06:16:55 am

Now, I've also got the b5 mod and there you had to go to mission specs and turn on 'allow laser-fire' something like that, don't have in on my pc anymore but it was something like that.


Now, when I try to do the same with my normal fs2 game, I don't get that option with my mission specs.

So, I would like to know if anyone knows what I should do about this?


Thanks

You are probably not using FRED2_Open, but the retail FRED executable.

Every Official SCP Build Release (such as for FS2 Open 3.6.12 or the current 3.6.14 RCs) have both a FreeSpace 2 Open and a FRED2_Open executable in both standard Release and Debug.

And it's "All Ships Beam-Freed By Default" that you are looking for I believe.
