so, it looks like that most people here focus on moding the game, but there is a Magnificent, Superbus, Ultra Power Voice Acted, Uber-Well played Single player component included, which is, surprise, surprise, named the Main Freespace 2 Campaign.

So my question is, when did you last play FS2 Main campaign, and heard the wonderful voice acting of Robert Loggia, and the Disco guy, who played the part of our wonderfully stupid, Allied Command.

Finished the campaign for the 40th something time just yesterday. :D

Although I tend to spend more time these days just testing/debugging my own missions.

Only fourty?

When I got my non-pirated copy of FS2 (only ripped game I've considered good enough to buy the original), I played through it 5 times in a row.

Trouble is, you cannae play the main campaign if you're screwing with the tbls cos it gets upset. And don't anybody tell me to do a double install of FS2, cos I won't.

you can always rename the data folder. Making a .bat to do that, is easy enough.

Just make an empty data folder and rename the one you're using for mods to something like 'moddata'  That's what I do, I've got about 5 seperate data folders for various mods.

Finished it (for the first time) about two weeks ago; I only got it a week before that.  'Twas very cool.

Although I've had the FS1 DVD for about a year, and have finished the Great War about four times now - all while working on my campaign (for FS1 :doh: )

Got sick of it about the tenth time around last year. Haven't played the main campaign since I discovered MODing.  I now play the fs1 main campaign ported to fs2. I have extracted the voice from fs1, so I get that, the weapons ani's, music, and briefing icons. the bets experience ever.

Finished it last week, and started on Derelict(again...)

I put the old shockwave.ani in the game, looks cool, I like the old one better than the new one(weird huh?)

Me too. The new one just looks kind of weird. I actually think some of the weapons look better without the glows, like fs1.

EDIT: Have you done all this?
Put the fs1 opening cutscene in fs2.
Installed the fs1port.
Used the fs1 interface icons, and animations.
Put the fs1 music into fs2.
Put the fs1 effects into fs2.
Extracted the voice from the fs1.vp's.

That is the ultimate Freespace>Freespace2 experience.

Thanx to Galactic Emperor for the missions!!!

Was working on FS1 until this weekend, when a certain jackass tried hiding my CDs in order to be irritating. As soon as I break his arm and find them, I'll be playing again.

I am waiting for bumpmapping before I play FS2 all the way through again. But I played FS1 again through the FS2 engine.

I haven't played the main campaign since about 3 months ago, when my PC was in the shop and I played it on my old PC (now sold on.....)...I've only completed it once, and that was before I joined the VBB (when I got a new gfx card which wasn't auto-detecting....it's a long and dull story).  to be fair, I have that much crap in my data folder it's near impossible to play the main camp.

Mostly, I've been testing the Casualties of War missions over the last  week or so.

It would take you about 2 minutes to rename your old data directory (and any extrainious .vp's) and make a new one with empty drawers. So don`t blame your inability to play FS2 on that. Blame the fact that you probably like making mods more than playing the game :p
 That said I think I like making missions more than playing other peoples :D

I haven't played it (the main campaign) in a month or so, if only cause I got StarCraft.  No, I haven't been playing it for a month yet, only two weeks.  I have no idea how many times I've played it through... Many, many times, that's for sure.  My favorite mission is the one that starts with Snipes yelling "DIVE DIVE DIVE, HIT YOUR BURNERS PILOT!"  It made me jump the first time I played it.  It was late at night, and the speakers where on loud.
