List of v3.2 changes
Is there a list of what was changed between v3.1 and 3.2? I've looked and I can't find it.

I've been going through the missions fixing issues that have arised from the change (like the range on the x-ray lasers shortingly significantly), and found one of missions won't load and just crashed the mission editor instead.

I have a earlier unfinished version of it that works, and I was hoping a change list might allow me to find and fix the problem faster.

The main difference between the file that works and the one that doesn't is that the broken one has sunhawks and avioki in it.

Any help would be appreciated.

How do you the new starfield?

I haven't noticed any changes in the mission editor.

In the background editor you'll notice an entry at the bottom that says Skybox Model Filename.

Enter Starfield.pof and set the number of stars as low as possible. You'll get the nicer starfield stars instead :)

Thanks.

It is definitely the Drazi Firehawks causing the mission to crash, which is kind of annoying as my camapign is set mostly in Drazi and Narn space.

Try setting the view to Wireframe by turning the models off (or visa versa).

I've noticed that certain ships crash FRED when you can see the model and some crash FRED when you can't.

There's also some problems with the FRED that came with the last release. Try different versions...

I haven't had any probs with Firehawks, ever. I think...

What's your exact campaign setting Megadoomer?
Will it be releases to other fans?
"Another fellow pilot"

 
The campaign is set 'loosely' in the timeline. Basically it deals with the escape of a teep from the psicore (obviously before they were defeated), towards the telepath homeworld at about the time the Drakh start to attack more openly.

I can email the first mission to anyone's who's curious.

Yes, I plan to release it when it's finished, maybe in a couple of months depending on the time I have.
