Drakh war mission, short campaign
hey yall, i know im new to the forum still but i just had some help on the mission editor, long story short i got started on ships from the drakh and allied EA, minbari ships on the other side. i beleve in B 5 history that we did counterattack the drakhs after the plauge was cured (Crusade) but i have the base but nothing extremely fancy like scrips and way points. so what im asking if there is anyone who i can send this mission file to and see if yall can do some editing for im stl learning but it some good stuf, dont really need voice acting or extremely fancy stuff just some good scripting, any takers.-D

If Orpheus is offering to mentor you I'd take him up on that offer, and download Orpheus's Drums of War campaign as an example of how make a simple fun TBP campaign.

good to read something from you, stargate
made any progress lately? if yes I would like to see it sometime...

get the damn ships to open fire with thier main guns like the warlock's 2 front GOD laser cannons,

well that is an easy one...
go check whetever you have activated the "all ships beam-freed by default"-flag in the Missions Specs editor -- that should switch all beams on all ships in the mission to ON
alternatively you can also set up Events using the "Beam-Free"- or "Beam-Free-All"-Operators
EDIT: I forgot about the third solution - the "Fire-Beam"-Operator-- but that is just for firing one shot at one target

('cause beams in terms of the orginial FS engine were always "overkill"-weapons they set to off by engine default)

Re: Drakh war mission, short campaign
AHH GOOD, besides the 3.4 problem, ive made the ships fire main beam weapons, im doing a experiment mission between ea and minbari ships and making it realist to the point where omega's can somewhat hold there own again a sharlin and warlock's going head to head good against them which it can do.

Re: Drakh war mission, short campaign
A single ship which has jumpdrives? ---
go to the ships editor (either via editors menu or by double clicking on the ship) -- the whole lower part of the editor (with the great white spaces) in there for setting the arrival and departure of ships --
but be careful! many ships all ships warpin with helluva speed and many don't slow down until they have passed 2k or even 4k distance...

with groupes of ships using one jumppoint thats another matter... but we can discuss it later

ps. got your mail ... I'll look into it once I've a more time left than now

Bear in mind that if you're willing to take a little break from this particular campaign I'm still willing to help people with the TBP campaign missions in the FRED Academy.
