Eeeyuck.  Why do you have so many ships in that mission?

It looks like the mission got corrupted, badly.  Not sure how (probably too many ships).  If you look at the Backup.xxx files in your missions folder, you might be able to recover an earlier version.

I salvaged the part of the mission that was salvageable.  Load this and see if it's adequate.

Re: Fred error need help
But before you edited your post, it did work. :confused:  What changed?  Did you try all 10 backups?

Also, why do you have so many ships in that mission?

 
Re: Fred error need help

Re: Fred error need help
You might want to try an Inferno build of FRED.  In any case, the file I uploaded did work for me -- although it is missing the wing, event, goal, message, and background information that got corrupted and was unrecoverable.

And you might want to try cutting down on the number of fighters and using repeating wing waves instead.

 
Yea you have a point thanks

 
Well i started from scratch and hit new and started over but once i hit save for my second time those erros pop up again and its not allowing me to get the .bak file up.
