You used homeplanet tracks? what a great idea!

Which reminds me, I'll be in position in the future to make a sale of homeplanet gold copies through ebay soon: the russian-english translation patch is advancing well! one more space sim will be just what the doctor ordered...

ASW hangs on the latest 3.6.11 OS X nightly, so I'm re-downloading 3.6.10 Final to see if it works. In the meantime, I've attached fs2_open.log to this post, if anyone's interested to look at it.

Double-post.

I cannot run ASW on 3.6.10 OS X as well, so I'm attaching fs2_open.log to this post.

Double-post.

Modifying is mighty fun.

It is. Pilot files and preferences on a Mac aren't stored inside the FS2 folder. All the logs and preferences, such as saved HUD colour schemes, are kept in /<username>/Library/FS2_Open/<modname>.

Well, to the best of my knowledge (which amounts to nothing, actually), there is no OpenGL update for my MacBook so .

Double-post again.

Right, I've downloaded the patch, put it into the right folder and reverted back to 3.6.10 Final, but still no dice.

fs2_open.log attached.

Modifying is fun. Again.

Anyways, I'm drawing a blank. Obviously

Line: 670is the issue here, but I have no idea what that means.

[Dragon]

I know what causes it.
It's a function present in 3.6.11, but not in 3.6.10.
You must be using Fury's AI, which isn't 3.6.10 compatible.

[Tinman]

the mod is working on my mac with 3.6.10

this is the part of the log where your game crash but I only see warnings

Title-screen mouse positions are not set... these are used to move the cursor to the next 'door' when the player right-clicks. Another side-effect is that the player's cursor moves to the far left every time they close a menu.

Oh damn, you're right. I completely forgot that I had it in my data files.

I've deleted that and went back to using 3.6.10 Final. It works perfectly now.

EDIT: And, just to keep Jeff happy and NOT double-post again, I've attached a screenshot of my HUD to this post.

Really great campaign.
Cinematics like BP 

I am looking foreward for the next Act...

Greetings Peter

[Commander Zane]

I actually played the first bombing mission on 2x time compression without noticing.
I thought it seemed odd that my Attis was doing three rolls a second.

[MatthTheGeek]

Oh yeah. Good campaign, awesome mod, with the kind of engagements that painfully remind me how dangerous blobs can be to unshielded crafts .

The use of shields, even weak, on aesdherian fighters and beams on aesdherian capships bothered me a little, but it's fine. I enjoyed the major changes between aesdherian battles and shivan battles, especially the fact that my wingmen actually started to die. I also quite liked the red-evil jump node at the end

[Androgeos Exeunt]

This is an excellent mod. I wouldn't be so bold as to say that it'll give the likes of BP and PI a run for their fans, but it's pretty close.

The one thing I especially like is how well the belligerents are portrayed in this mod, in particular the Shivans. When I first heard that this mod was going to be made, I thought it was interesting, but wondered how the ASW team was going to portray the Shivans as being enemies that "didn't die". I was half-expecting the ASW team to release a mod that contained a lot of one-sided battles, with the Shivans forever winning without losses. The very last mission hence caught me off guard because I didn't expect the Shivans to send lots of killable stuff to weaken the Anicents, then finish everything off with a Demon.

In that sense, am I right to say that the definition of enemies that "don't die" means "surprise spam attack"?

The only problem I can think of, really, is that the Shivans aren't using any sort of smart methods (like FS1's Pandora's Box) against the Ancients, instead resorting to the classic method of spamming, but that's just minor nitpicking, really.

Excuse me, but appreciating campaigns is not a zero-sum game. Mods can coexist.

Indeed. You can be a fan of as many campaigns as you want.

Notice that they had no other way, as most of the time their only chance was to go throught the node and attack.
They will be using tactics later, when there will be something more than two or three battles at one node.

[Inglonias]

I've started playing this. Its a bit hard to tell if you've actually hit something, as the sounds from hitting shields, deploying countermeasures, etc. are all gone. Maybe this is a bad install on my part, but if not, please put them back.

[Commander Zane]

Might be, I can hear the shield impacts and countermeasure launches when I play.
