I'm stuck at college for 2-6 hours a day doing nothing. As you might of noticed, I do a lot of wiki browsing/editing. Just wondering, anything particularly productive for me to do that anyone wants done?

Yeah. Can you do a mod database?

Or start expanding this - and most importantly its 'sister' pages - http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/FreeSpace_1_Terran_Ship_Database into similar as this http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Freespace_2_Ship_Database

Well I started that one with an ambition to make it similar to the FS2 version but my memory of FS1 was only of the first act since I had only played the OEM version thoroughly (the second and third acts I played in a flash), and I really wasn't motivated to go research it all out.

The Shivan one has been started too, BTW.

I'll get on it.

The problem with working with any ship list is that I have to have FRED access while I do that. And you can't install stuff on the college computers (you aren't given Administrator status, of course), so the mod database seems like the only option.

Yeah. Can you do a mod database?

Now that I think of it, I have no idea what you're talking about. Mod database? This? Do you mean a list of all the custom ships and missions in every mod?

My windows / car could use a wash, Dog could be walked i suppose.

I'll get on that too, great way to earn frequent flier miles.

As many as you can do...

Once you start it I'll probably hop on too.

Alright, next time I come to school I'll carry my Derelict files with me on memory stick. Try to get as many mission briefs up as I can. You can assist with the walkthroughs, if you like, but I'll write them myself also. But it's Thursday, I get out and have a break until Monday (woo!) so this is actually a little late for that. Next week. At least I can get the Pirates entry started over the weekend.

Derelict mission walkthrough. Jump right in, any time.

Edit:

A possible problem.

Down at the bottom of the page you can see that someone already tried to make a mod database, just never got a whole lot done. So what should we use? The one I set up, or this one? I prefer mine because it's worth having all the campaign information in one place, not tucked under "Tutorials and Downloads".

By the way, I got the first mission walkthrough done.

I got started on the mod database and ran out of steam; been working on the TBP shiplist on and off for a bit recently.

I would start making a profile for every user-made mod ship now if I could have a generic ship profile to develop upon.

Steal any of the ones from the existing profiles for canon craft.
