What is the progress of R2? From last i heard it was depending on the missions being made and then it got good and then inactive. What is the current persentages?

Inferno builds don't work at all on my laptop anymore with recent CVS builds, some sort of memory overwrite issue. I've reverted to a working September build but it means I have to keep a different species_defs table and restore the old difficulty table.
Until it works again with recent builds on my laptop I won't be able to do much since I only have my desktop system which doesn't like big missions, spec and HTL models.

So recently the only thing I've done is got my special little project working. With a new Shivan ship for testing it. What that project is I won't tell you

I still hope for release sometime this year...

Haven't you got some kind of backup? Or could you make it now (everything you have NOW in FS2) and reinstall windows?

Woomeister · **Reply #3 on:** January 01, 2006, 05:32:08 am

There's nothing wrong with my laptop. I can run far more intense games on it with no problems.

So make backup of all Inferno stuff and reinstall Freespace.
I want R2 made before holidays!!!

Woomeister · **Reply #5 on:** January 01, 2006, 01:38:06 pm

Uh I don't have FS2 installed...

Qwer · **Reply #6 on:** January 01, 2006, 01:42:32 pm

Uh...yes....
Ok, first try to make separate backups of INF SCP things (missions, tables, itd.). Then slowly add things and try to find out what is causing that.

Woomeister · **Reply #7 on:** January 01, 2006, 02:28:53 pm

Ok now it's working again except once out of about twenty attempts to load a mission. Though the sounds clicking again...

Bet it won't work tommorow

We've decided to revert the mod to work on September builds for now. Those seem to be working fine, though it means the mod isn't compatible with more recent builds now as the tables had to be reverted for the old builds.

With my little side project completed we can do some interesting things in ch2 now

Now we have to merge Sids table changes with my debugged tables, then I have to get everyone together again so missions can be finnished. Haven't seen some staff members since the move from Gamespy.

At least I can play with the additional ships now that the main mods working again

I should have a lot of additional mods ready by release time, maybe 25 or so ships without the Ancient stuff.

Then, "a lot of things have been done, R2 is close..." ?

Woomeister · **Reply #10 on:** January 04, 2006, 05:15:58 pm

Well things can start moving again, if we can get everyone together that is.

Don't forget to take a holiday some time, Woomeister. Sounds like you've got plenty on your plate right now.

Woomeister · **Reply #12 on:** January 05, 2006, 11:33:14 am

I haven't taken much break time from this in the last 4 years and probably won't anytime soon either

Charismatic · **Reply #13 on:** January 07, 2006, 10:53:01 am

Good, well i mean, its good that thigns are workign again

. This year could mean many many months.
Get more staff members?

Who have you not seen sence the move? Do u know how to contact them? Email or somehting?

Woomeister · **Reply #14 on:** January 07, 2006, 02:22:25 pm

Only contact is through the forums. More are starting to show up so hopefully we can get moving again.

mr.WHO · **Reply #15 on:** January 07, 2006, 02:40:01 pm

If you ask me, I would never agree to work with Inferno team as FRED'er because it would spoil the the fun of playing R2 (hmm.. or maybe not, I finished R1 about 15 times and it was fun even when I knew when enemy will arrive).

Woomeister · **Reply #16 on:** January 07, 2006, 03:00:14 pm

Of course bonuses of being on the staff include access to data on the extra mods I have, first play with new stuff, and access to our super secret stuff.

pecenipicek · **Reply #17 on:** January 07, 2006, 03:24:17 pm

but it ruins the fun of playing it

Woomeister · **Reply #18 on:** January 07, 2006, 03:38:43 pm

Well it doesn't for me

Woomeister · **Reply #19 on:** January 07, 2006, 05:57:30 pm

Hmm I believe it's been almost 5 years I've been doing this now. Started not long after the first version of the Gigas in feb 2001, we were then hosted here in May from our original Geocities home.
We're a bit younger than BWO and MT but we're the longest running hosted project at HLP
