Desperate Times A campaign by Adam Betts Updated to work with FSO 3.6.14 and the 3.6.12 media VPs. 2 years after Cappela a new jump node forms in the Vasuda system leading to a star named Uvena. A Knossos Portal in that system brings the Shivans and all hell breaks loose. These are Desperate Times people, and desperate times call for desperate measures.

Technological Superiority: Episode I Concept & Storyline: Arnav Manchanda Lead Mission Design: Arnav Manchanda Assistant Mission Designers: Quid & Iceheart MODs: Courtesy of Mike 'Bobboau' Abegg ([email protected]) Tested and slightly modified to work with FSOpen 3.6.14RC8 by Macfie Two weeks have passed since the destruction of Capella. As the GTVA begins to re-build its society and fleets, headquarters receives an unexpected signal from a famous point in the star system of Ross 128, where the Shivans made first contact with humanity in the most hideous way. A new Knossos portal has formed amid the wreckage of the old installation. As the damaged GTVA fleet enters the system to wearily blockade the new node, an Azrael transport emerges, alone, sending a distress signal to the GTVA. Just as quickly, a massive Shivan force emerges and captures the transport, hauling it back through the portal, disappearing as quickly as they came. What lies beyond the portal? How did Bosch survive? Featuring: - 10 action-packed missions. - Dogfights, cap-ship battles, desperate situations - just the way we like it! - A captivating story that will leave you wanting more. http://www.freespacemods.net/download.php?view.871

Huh, cool. Is Technical Superiority the same as the old chestnut Technological Superiority?

Desperate times mission bug...
Spoiler:
In the Desperate Times mission where you have to blow up the miner and piss off the shivans. The sathanas that is supposed to have a miner dooked to it is not present which negates the mission objectives and makes the mission unwinnable. Also losing the 5 missions on purpose to bypass it defaults you to a herc 2 not the ares...so no helios for you.

I submitted a corrected campaign but somehow the updated mission did not get posted on Freespacemods.
Attached is a corrected mission.

Macfie....would that pertain to the 3rd mission? Desperate Times won't let me jump out. Is there something I'm doing wrong? (I get near to the jump node and face East)
One thing I get is engine faliure when I try to warp out. I have a 59% damage rating, could that be it?

make sure you are at the nav beacon. The mission warpout is tied to it and you have to be right on top of it to warp out.

you mean you have to be above it or just close to it (nav beacon)?

If I remember correctly you have to be within 25 meters of the nav buoy.

I'm right on it and then hit alt-J " Cannot Jump" Windows XP 32 Amd Phenoem tri-core using the FSO 3.6.14 final
There may be one issue and that is my system has numerous errors on it, but if you have some thoughts about this--please share.

The mission is a red alert. If the Sathanas is destroyed you should activate the red alert when you get within 25 meters of the Nav point. As to error messages you shouldn't be getting any.
