Okay, I hacked the mission to use a regular Deimos for the player instead of the special player one with no turrets that comes with the mission, and FRED says it's resetting the player ship because players can't fly Deimoses. How do I get it to keep the Deimos as the player ship?

I just set it to Leviathan and tried it. Either I had no ship or there's a stealth version of the Leviathan with no engines.

He got a repeating event to work with Key-Reset??? This I've got to see!

No, they just keep firing.

Ah

I was wondering

So, if any ship is playable in the latest builds... how do you get FRED to not say "Oops, can't fly that" and unset the capship as your player ship?

Uh, just select a normal fighter, open the ship editor, and select "set player craft."

Luigi30 · **Reply #26 on:** March 26, 2005, 12:04:46 pm

FRED says that a Fenris is an invalid player ship and I get no ship.

Then go back to a normal fighter. FRED won't stop giving you errors, because you aren't supposed to fly capital ships.

Try the command line to disable FRED warnings (I don't know what it is)

Or, you can try going into the mission file with notepad and looking for the list of ships available in the ship selection screen, and adding a capship.

Okay, this is really screwed up. I'm installing a second copy of FS2. I'm getting nonstop errors from nearly everything.

Any chance we'll ever get a turret view like Freelancer's?

Luigi30 · **Reply #32 on:** March 29, 2005, 06:45:12 pm

Freelancer has a turret view?

karajorma · **Reply #33 on:** March 30, 2005, 04:52:14 am

If you press H in freelancer you gain the ability to move around the ship and shoot targets behind you.

1. Get the latest FRED2SCP build.
2. Open it.
3. Make a cain for the enemy somewhere within beam range.
4. Turn the ulysses into an aeolus.
5. Give the cain orders to kill the aeolus.
6. Beamfree the ships.
7. Save, and ignore all those errors as fred2 is stupid and we are superior.
8. Play. Target the cain to fire at it.
