Im running on a HP Computer, P4 processor, with some really advanced Omega NVidia card.  And for some odd reason, when i play on Freespace:  The Great War, when im in game, ill hit tab, and for some reason, i get that wierd clicking noise like you normally would when your Afterburners run out completely.  Well the afterburners dont even fire.  And during the briefings, the screen wont even switch over to the next stage of the briefing automatically like it normally would.  And i also get this same problem for Freespace 2, can anyone help me with this problem, because im really missing playing these two great games and the mods the people create.

For the afterburner, its XP being XP... Try the SCP to fix it in FS2, or compatability mode for FS1.

For the Breifing, well, we're at a loss... I and a few others have that problem, and cannot trace it back to anything distinct... You can sometiomes get it to work by pressing Shift-(Right arrow) and then using the left arrow...



Try the SCP as well, as you'll have more fun ...

Interesting problem. I'll look into this.

Your gonna have to elaborate on that, where exactly is the SCP and how to get it, and what exactly is it? *notes it has been ages since hes roamed these forums*

Err.. hippo? FS: The Great War is FreeSpace 1... not 2.

[Hippo]

yes, and both bugs effect both games, at the same time, regardless.

Yes, but DLing the SCP doesn't fix FS1's problems!

[WMCoolmon]

There's always the port.

[Hippo]

I never said it did, read the post better

[Taristin]

I posted my reply at 9:23, and this pops up under your post:

And no.. The Port just isn't the same, no matter how hard it tries.

[Hippo]

thats in all my posts anyway, and there, i just re-edited it, without changing anything, so your quote is incorrect!

[Goober5000]

Just run the game in Win98 compatibility mode... that'll fix it.

[Hippo]

Did ANYONE read my post?!

I said that already!

[Goober5000]

Eh, it wasn't very apparent. And you didn't specify which compatibility mode.

[Hippo]

ANY compatability mode works. Therefore, further specification is moot.

Seems we got ourselves an ACE COMBAT 5 fan...... I like you already Razgriz

No big speech this time?

Exits are to your right and left, and flamethrowers are under your seat. Be careful, though, as they are sometimes filled with water, so bring your own Napalm or try to club someone with the non-working shotguns in the weapon closet. Also, be careful while wandering the ventilation shafts. If you see a large, six-legged creature that looks really pissed, it’s probably Carl, give him your lunch and he'll hopefully go away. In the event of an emergency, pray.  The Plasma rifles in the forward locker are released only by an Admin, [V] God, or hyperintelligent shade of the color blue. Oh, and whatever you do, don't mention the word Freespace followed by the number 3.

The game is called DeScent: Freespace, not Decent Freespace.
