Title: Freespace 2 HD mods, Freespace open etc
Post by: GD10 on January 06, 2016, 01:14:41 pm
Hello Freespace community ! I am an avid player of the Freespace games, but got tired of the old textures and 1024 x 768 resolution on modern desktops. I have already tried to augment the game by using Freespace open and the wxlauncher, but it doesnt seem to function properly ( I'm getting dll errors ).

How do I make the enhanced edition run on Winows 10 ? And how can I extract sound files and/or videos from briefings etc ?


Thank you for reading and replying ! Have a nice day :)

FreeSpace open should work fine on Windows 10. What kind of error do you have, exactly? Can you post a screenshot?

Have you tried using the FreeSpace Open Installer?

Could you please be more specific about the errors you're getting? Myself and others use FSO under Windows 10 without issue.

And how can I extract sound files and/or videos from briefings etc ?
To access data from the VP files you'll need a tool for that purpose; I personally use VPGUI (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=83920.0), but there are several alternatives.
