use the -mod INFR1 (or whatever your INF is located in) switch on FRED, so it's:
c:\games\freespace2\FRED2_open_3_7_0.exe -fredhtl -mod INFR1
You can also use multiple mods, eg
c:\games\freespace2\FRED2_open_3_7_0.exe -fredhtl -mod Solar_Wars, INFR1
or
c:\games\freespace2\FRED2_open_3_7_0.exe -fredhtl -mod Solar_Wars, INFR1, mediavps
- but FRED should be able to utilize the mod.ini file in whichever mod you specify, so for example -mod INFR1 will cause it to look in that directory, and, upon finding the mod.ini file, the mod.ini will cause it to append ,mediavps to the commandline.
- You can use this with some of the
other switches, eg
c:\games\freespace2\FRED2_open_3_7_0.exe -fredhtl -spec -glow -jpgtga -mod mediavps
This way, when you enable the "show models", it will look prettier...
