root_fs2.vp strange problem
I've got a problem with root_fs2.vp
The game can't read the missions contained in root_fs2.vp. When i go to the techroom's missions menu, there is no training missions (Terran/Vasudan/Shivan Gauntlets) and Templar campaign doesn't show. When i extract them in the Freespace2/data/missions folder, it still can't read/find them. They are there, but they aren't, missions menu is empty. I can fred them, however.

The game can read my custom missions only, but the others... What's happening?
Working on the Freespace 2 spanish translation. In case you want to play the game in castillian, click here. You'll need some spanish there, though, sorry :p

If you want your mod/campaign translated to spanish, please PM me or send me an e-mail message.

I could translate from spanish to english too, if you want, but it wouldn't be perfect, not at all. For spanish->english translations comes better an english native with spanish knowledge.

If you mean each and every mission, there is indeed a problem. But if you just mean the
(Terran/Vasudan/Shivan Gauntlets) and Templar campaign
, those are multiplayer missions, if I'm not mistaken.

Re: root_fs2.vp strange problem
I can play the main campaign. That's not a problem. But i want to modify (translate) the campaign missions. When i extract them, it is like they don't exist for the game. I can use FRED with them, but i can't play them when i go to the techroom.

I can't play individual campaign missions. Is there some kind of protection? I've extracted the missions in the missions folder, but the game can't detect them.

Re: root_fs2.vp strange problem
You have to put them in \data\missions.

You can't just play them from the techroom if they're part of a campaign. You have to beat them first in campaign mode. Press Shift+S to circumvent this.

As i said, they are already there. Extracted from root_fs2.vp.

Sorry but I don't want to replay campaign missions. I'll try to explain it:  ;)

This is what i want to do: translate the game to my native language. I need to modify each mission's messages, briefings, command briefings and debriefings. I already did that with the Shivan Gauntlet, but for nothing. The techroom can't detect the missions i put in the 'missions' folder. How can I translate a mission that can't be played? Do I have to play the entire campaign so i can translate the game?

By the way, my custom missions do appear in the techroom. Only Gauntlets and campaign missions do not appear.

idk, since I haven't tried, but most likely you'll have to switch to multiplayer with your pilot in-game.

Re: root_fs2.vp strange problem
Yes, some were multiplayer missions.
And about the campaing missions, i think i found a way out. I go to FRED, and edit campaign. At the campaign menu i modify each mission. I think... it's possible the problem is solved... i hope that.
Thanks to you, people.  :yes:
For now, i believe this thread is over.

Re: root_fs2.vp strange problem
But it isn't, because you shouldn't have to do that. Press Shift+S in the mission simulator, it unlocks all missions.
