FreeSpace 1 and Silent Threat
I have tried to read many of the threads posted here but till cannot quite figure this out. I can get Derelict to work as a mod in FSOpen but no matter what I do I cannot figure out where to put FS1  files to play using the open engine. Can anyone give us the exact location all files must be put including the movies. And correct me if I am wrong but they need converting right?

Cheers in advance

Daz

PS. I have FS1 and Silent Threat on ISO if that helps.

Re: FreeSpace 1 and Silent Threat
A. Forget about FreeSpace 1 and the original Silent Threat.

2. Download FSPort either with Turey's Installer or manually here. The FSPort files go to \freespace2\fsport\ and you use FSPort just like any other mod: selecting the appropriate subfolder (in this case \fsport\) as your mod from the Launcher. And then selecting the correct campaign from the in-game Campaign Room.

D. Lay off the caps. They make your post look immature.

In addition, if you can get the cutscenes (.mve files) from the ISOs, take them. Place them to \freespace2\fsport\data\movies\. This way you don't have to download them. And no. Converting them is not necessary: the FSO engine can read mve files just fine.

Kids? Oh. I thought you were a kid who was just learning the ways of the FreeSpace. Pardon my prejudice. And good to hear you got it working.

Re: FreeSpace 1 and Silent Threat
Personally, I like playing Descent: FreeSpace over FSPort because the FS engine and the FS2_Open engine behave differently. You don't really get the REAL Descent: FreeSpace experience on FSPort.

Of course not. Some things just got stuck on me head back when I was a kid.
