Select the 3.6.10 RC2 .EXE in the top box on the launcher. Run the installer to get FSPort, and then select fsport_mediavps as your mod folder under the mod tab. Select the FS1 campaign in the campaign room. Play FS1.
Gettin' back to dodgin' lasers.

Re: I'm using the FSOpen Installer to download stuff - but get errors
this is what I meant - how do I play all the FS 1 missions in FSPort? How do I get the launcher to launch FSPort? Can you play all of the FS 1 missions in FSPort?
What cole said. Use the Launcher's MOD tab to select an active mod, run the game and once in the main hall, go to the campaign room and select the correct campaign. The entire FS1 campaign and the necessary ships 'n stuff have been ported to FSPort so that they can be enjoyed with FS2 and FSO.

ok, I did this (see image). Is this mod the latest and is it complete?



Now I ran this mod, but I got an error

however, I was able to play the first training mission except that when my instructor told me to press the "\" key to go full speed, pressing the "\" key did nothing at all. So I exited this, went back to the hall and selected "chanpagin" but got this error message:



Why did I get these error messages? Some files missing? If so where do I get them?

Make sure you make a new pilot file, then go to the Campaign Room (not the Ready Room!) in the mainhall and select 'Freespace: The Great War'.

Re: I'm using the FSOpen Installer to download stuff - but get errors
Thanks, General B. I did what you said, and the game (FreeSpace The Great War) runs ok. But when I tried to activate cheat mode (by typing www.volition-inc.com) during the first training mission, it wouldn't get into cheat mode. How do I activate cheat mode, and are the cheat codes the same as they are for the retail, boxed version of Descent: FreeSpace The Great War?

Re: I'm using the FSOpen Installer to download stuff - but get errors
No, since you're now playing Freespace 2.

www.freespace2.com

Type that. Cheat commands are, I believe, the same - tilde and I is invincible, so on.

You really shouldn't need the cheats if you turn it down to, say, Very Easy, though.

Re: I'm using the FSOpen Installer to download stuff - but get errors
You're basically playing FS2, but with the FS1 ships/etc. The FS1 cheats no longer work.
