Hmm. I downloaded the full install from Fileplanet. Its 135mb just the confirm that thats the one. It gets to 50% installarion and then freezes. I left it to run for about 3-4 minutes, and still nothing.

I'm really looking forward to playing it, so do you think there is solution to the problem?

well there's nothing wrong with the installer itself, it was tested by a few people including myself.

This should be on the HLP front page!

"Extra Extra! Read all about it! Long awaited campaign Inferno is finally Released to the Public!"

In a related story: "Newbies question about the release of FS3. Tiara detained for massive newbie slaughter in Gen. FS Forum."

The installer version has everything, no other file is required.

You did actually remember to go to the campaign room and choose the inferno campaign didn't you?

If that's not the problem do a search of your freespace directory and look for a file called ships.tbl. If you find it that's the cause of your problems.

Basically creating a new Data folder will probably solve that problem. Have a look in my FAQ (the directory section) for more info.

I just downloaded and tested the single installer version. It works perfectly. The reason it stops at 50% is because it installs two files - one (comparatively tiny) Readme file and then the 230MB VP file, which does take a long while to extract on slower systems. If things are going wrong it's got nothing to do with the file's integrity.

We can't do full voice acting as if we did and someone quits after 1 chapter, and there character is in another chapter, it would of caused a lot of problems.
We are planning briefing only acting, but I wasn't holding the campaign back a few months just for that.

After playing a lot of campaigns without voice files, you kind of get used to it.  Besides, Inferno carries itself without needing special files like that.    Reading never killed anyone, oh wait, it killed me once, damn Dragons.

actually, I downloaded the single installer version, and all ships shows up as ulysses, including your own. oh, you also start out without primary weapons, but they show up if you call for restocking of your missiles. makes protecting the carolina in the first mission really difficult, tho.

If you are using the SCP, don't, and make sure your tables and models directories are empty.  You may need to create a new Data folder.  This has been said before, and I don't want to sound critical, but read everything in the topic before posting.

you ignorant p**ck.

I use the regular fs2.exe. I have made sure that my data directory was empty. I also created a new data directory and I extracted the files in the vp there. doing that last thing solved most of it, except a load-out problem in mission 1.
