-A simple 'beam free' checkbox for ships in FRED2, which can be overridden by SEXPs if necessarry.

-the ability to control the speed of rotational subsytems (i.e. radar dishes) with SEXPs.

- (i'm not sure if this can't be done alreadym so correct me)The ability to add/ remove entries in the techroom (from the species tbl) with SEXPs.

THe ability to choose each ship squad logo,  individually, in the ships edit window in FRED2... like this we could have all the fighters with logos... even the enemy

No, no... A 'beam-lock' checkbox for ships in FRED2, that way they're automatically free.

-Scroll buttons on the command briefing screen. I`m tired of having to test the mission in low res to see if the mission text fits on screen

-play mission briefing in fred (again so we can test without having to change res)

-End the mission in other ways other than warping out (an END MISSION SEXP) It wouldn`t be that hard to implement either since it is similar to the red alert SEXP except that it sends you to debriefing instead of the second half of the mission.

-The ability to pass on the ships state to other missions. i.e if you are running a non red alert mission the ability to pass on any damage inflicted to a destroyer onto the next mission.

-Ability to look at your mission in FRED while using the campaign editor. I`m sick of having to call up a second FRED window so I can see what SEXP's I used in the mission.

-Allow ships to attack other ships on the same side

-User definable sides i.e have ships with an iff that makes them attack only unknowns or neutrals etc.

-a random SEXP that is evalutated every time not just at the start of the mission.

  looking at the whole thread, I see that most people ask more for an addon or (damnit) for FS3 than a patch. You're dreaming.

[Turnsky]

How about support for a higher texture resolution and full support for bumpmapping
or ability to support resolutions up to 1600x1200 i know it sounds like a big ask, but look at the other posts

[Jabu]

A resolution change would require a totally new set of artwork and interface. That's a bigger job than almost anything mentioned here

Well, higher screen res should not be difficult to add. higher map res support is another story (new maps yes)

[Anduril]

Fix the physics so that the TBL damping values work for higher numbers...so we have more flexibility with the physics. Right now, if you try to change damping so you slide more, the ship starts doing funny flying-sideways things.

[StarGunner]

This may not be posiblle but I would like the FS campian in FS2.

No! I don't wont a FS3 I just think that we should get FS in FS2 because FS had a Bad engine, and FS2 has a better one.

Well, waht you ask is an addon, not a patch. Plus the FS2 engine is the SAME than FS1, just improved. Never wondered why it was so easy to port a ship or a weapon from one game to the other?

[Turnsky]

Improvements................ah yes, get the Voilition people to tweak the engine as far as it will go, and then make FS3.

but other than that, the higher texture res?
look at the babylon project.

[Setekh]

Look at TBP? Look right here, we got 1024*768 maps a long time before them around here in a thread somewhere...

Yeah, guess who told them?  

(gotta take credit for something once in a while)

[karajorma]

- A destroyable tickbox in the ships menu. Friendly ships that have it can be blown up without alpha 1 becoming a traitor. (would be nice to have it as a SEXP as well)

- Ability to check if Alpha 1 has fired at a ship and hit it (rather than only being able to tell if you`ve destroyed it)

[NegspectahDek]

have ai fighters call support for rearm AND repair.  I've played several missions where bombers will get disabled and sit there for the entire mission and never call support.

Or, give us the ability to tell support to dock with specific ships/ tell certain ships to dock with support

Or, probably a source code thing, but when ships call for support, have them wait until support is only 100 m from them, especially in a furball

Heh, rightfully so, though - cheers Aldo  

And to think it was sitting right under our noses all that time in the reg hacks!  

[Fineus]

I'd like support for all kinds of new weapons, like the D2 Spreadfire cannon...
