I was playing Descent 2, and in Level 5 I found this interesting sign...




The text is a bit blurred, but it says "Freespace Operations".

Probably just a coincidence, seeing as Descent was developed before Parallax split, and Freespace after. Just thought it a bit interesting.

So there was a conspiraci ! I knew it. ))

Well lots of things say freespace. Like my computer. Click on it and it has 50% freespace. (well thats free space, but neyah)

I once heard someone talking about freezing peas and thought they were a Freespace fan. 

Foot really wedged in throat that time.

Its not just a coincidence. They had Descent : Freespace planned since Decent 2 came out.

What do you do to make Descent 2 work??? I want to play it again so badly...

We noticed this too in one of our multiplayer games last summer. I posted a screenshot somewhere in the big D2 thread. I had seen the sign many times in the past, but it was before FS came out.

Is it a standalone thing or is the original disk still needed?

We really need to do those again

[Commander Zane]

Huh?

[Dark Hunter]

Yes I believe the original install is still required for D2X-XL.

Google Home of the Underdogs... they have it.

You need the original files, but they were posted somewhere in that thread. I think Ulala had a link somewhere, although I don't remember which page it was on.

BTW, you can play your original (D1) missions in that, too... I know www <dot> old-games <dot> ru has D1 and D2, works better with www.freedownloadmanager.org 's FDM.
You can use http://google.com/translate_t , put the website into it, and select the Russian to English conversion, that works pretty good.  Otherwise your kind of stuck.  Although, how much are they selling Descent for?  Five bucks would be okay, it's still worth that; so ten bucks for both D1 and D2, if you can find where to get it.  Hint: www.ebay.com , search for descent in the sub-category "Games"

Haven't managed to find any yet.

Did you check the links in my post?

I saw that post, and all the links are dead anyway.
