I think Fractux has a server with the VPs... and you can just download SCP builds to run the game.

I thought he was more junior than you for some reason... apparently forumite psychology  isn't my strong suite...

October 2003 I joined, but I found this place about 2 months or so before I joined.
Was mostly lurking (which I'm still doing kind of :p).
Joined up to get help with a Freespace problem or two, and then just stuck around.

I was at the VBB and people kept talking about me having to go to HLP. I thought they were misspelling "help".

Then I was linked here and have been lurking ever since.
I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

i found VWBB and started work on CoW, then found this place through there.  Actually i went there looking for some guidance on fs2 demo multiplayer for a mechwarrior league that i had designed.  next thing you know...fs2 is better than mechwarrior.

eh, training missions aren't actually part of the _game_. they're just there to let you get the hang of the keys and stuff... unfortunately i'm too unco. one day i'll have to borrow fs off you and try again.
