Sorted Nik?

[Nik]

thanks a bunch for the input guys! Dekker mate Im using Neoterrans client thingie now cos it seems to be easiest....and so Shivans pack is the thing to have?...it doesnt change the original too much with mods etc does it?

again thanks all for the help!

[Colonol Dekker]

AFAIK It adds graphic / modernisation update type features. For mods and stuff i reccomend inferno for after youve clocked FS2.

[Nik]

ah cheers Dekker so I can pick and choose when to mod it.....and FSport is basically freespace 1 eh...

[Flipside]

Yup, it's a conversion of the original to Freespace 2

[Nik]

nice! real gem of a game here eh?...

on a side note, anyone been a little high while playing it? it does seem perfect as one of those types of games, watching a two massive cap ships tear each other two bits as u fly into the melee, high as a kite....

[Colonol Dekker]

LMAO i actually was when i played the game first time around, i spent five minutes on the main flight deck going "dum dum dum, dum dum dum dee dum" in time with the music, then when the Psamtik blapped the Corvette iwas dumberstruck..

I was dumbstruck fom training beforehand at the fact the nubula backgrounds were more than one colour as opposed to FS1.

[Nik]

ahahaha thats what im talking abt....the beauty of being dumbstruck in space.....i cant wait to play it proper and just soak in the atmosphere for the first few minutes!

Dumbstruck and dumberstruck?

[Colonol Dekker]

It was progessive, this is a non-canon (english language) word tht i utilise to emphasise levels of bewilderment 

Dumberstruck, i mean

[jr2]

hehe thanks for the input so far guys, .....i will let y'all know as soon as I am able to get the cutscenes sorted......what I wouldn't give for a link like FS2ALLCutscenes.avi or something......lol!

GAAAH!

@AlphaOne, if you haven't seen the FS1 movies,
http://oregonstate.edu/~plankerj/FS1movies/
Take a look at hallfight.avi   Say hi to Carl for me. 
FYI FS2 movies are here:
http://web.engr.oregonstate.edu/~plankerj/fs2movies/
These are usefull if you're using SCP and don't want to have to have your disc w/you when you play.  Put them in \data\movies if you want to use them.  Also, I wonder, do you use FSPort?  If you put all the FS1 movies into \FSPort\data\movies , then they play when you run the Port as a mod.

Why didn't u use the search function?

EDIT: kara's got'em rared (or has links to whoever did, anyways).  Had to follow my own advice and use the search function.

EDIT2: & he's right, http://web.engr.oregonstate.edu/~plankerj/fs2movies/ doesn't work.  I think that's where I picked 'em up from, but it doesn't work now.  Oh well.

The second link won't work. It's been down for ages.
