FS1 Campaign Question
Hi everyone!
I just installed FS2 and FSOpen and thought playing from the start would be a good idea, so I activated the FSPort MediaVPs v3.2 mod. My question is how do I actually play through the entire campaign? I can only select single missions. Is that the only way? Or am I missing something?

Cheers,

Michael

Re: FS1 Campaign Question
Go to the campaign room, select 'FreeSpace Port'.

Go to the 'briefing' room, enjoy the campaign!

Ahhhh I see. Thanks =]
I was under the impression that it would mess up the game for some reason. Cheers!

Not selecting it would mess the game up. For a good reason. 'Cause then you'd be playing the FS2 campaign with FSPort. The campaign has FS2 ships, weapons 'n ****, while FSPort would offer FS1 ships, weapons 'n ****. Result: pain.

Re: FS1 Campaign Question
Actually you should go to the launcher and select FSPort or if you have the FSPort-mediavps select those.  Then go to the campaign room and select "The Main Freespace Campaign".  Go to the 'briefing' room, enjoy the campaign!
Normal people believe that if it isn't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it isn't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
The difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers is:
Mechanical Engineers build weapons.  Civil Engineers build targets
An optimist sees the glass half full; the pessimist sees it half empty. An engineer sees that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

He's done that already, he was just hung up on actually selecting the campaign in-game.

Re: FS1 Campaign Question
It's actually the Ready Room, not the Briefing Room. And you're right, you do need to make a new pilot to play FSPort or you'll find things going wrong. You can clone a current pilot to keep its preferences, though.

Re: FS1 Campaign Question
That was pretty cool! Thanks for the info guys =]
And just one other thing, can I play the original FS2 later? I just need to disable any mods, right?
