problem or bug in fs2 single player campaign!
Hi everyone!

Yesterday i installed the freespace2 open source project. Im an old freespace fan, shame i didnt knew earlier, that such a project exists. I have to admit, you guys made an awesome job on it. Im running the 3.6.10 executable with the new mediavp's. However i have a problem in the single player campaing.

In the mission when my job is to test the TAG missiles in the nebula, is pretty interesting. Im starting that mission without any TAG missiles or any other missiles equipped. I tried to start the game with other executables (3.6.9), tried to rearm, tried to lower and higher difficulty setting, tried to restart mission. Nothing helped. I had to finish that mission on my own, without being able to tag any enemy ship, so basically without any anti-fighter beam support.

Few missions later, when my order is to destroy several NTF ships, with the help of the mjolnir cannons, i have an anothre problem. I cant select any anti cruiser warhead, just rockeyes/hornets/tempests. Not just i cant select other type of missiles, i dont even have other in the list at the weapons loadout tab. And none of the bomber ships in the squads are equipped with cyclops or with any other stuff being able to take down bigger ships.

Its the same in the next mission, when i have to take down the Iceni (but in the mission the Vindicator). Now i stopped playing it, becouse this annoys me. I completed the fs2 campaign like 10times in the past, and never had such an error.

Even if im happy with this updated engine, especially the ship models looks so nice, but the things i mentioned ruins the fun of playing this awesome game again.

Anybody had this problem, or anybody has a solution?

Re: problem or bug in fs2 single player campaign!
If you are using the 3.6.10 MediaVPs the problem is that they also contain a campaign file which is over riding yours. I was unaware of that it contained a campaign file or I would have warned about it earlier. :rolleyes:

If you follow that guide but use freespace2\mediavps\data\missions instead of freespace2\data\missions it will solve the problem.

Karajorma's Freespace FAQ. It's almost like asking me yourself.
