Hello,
i really got a very strange problem. I downloaded, installed and updated Diaspora to V1.1, and it seems to be an awesome game. When i try to play the very first training mission, i get stuck at the point, where you have to approach to drone 2 and then fly reverse. My game is, somehow, sometimes in german and in english, note that i have a german version of Freespace 2 and the stand-alone, FS2 based game Wing Commander Saga: The Darkest Dawn installed. Maybe this causes all the trouble, which is:
In the keyboard settings, i defined flying backwards as z (z and y are exchanged in german and english keyboards). When i play the first mission, targeting objects in the rectangle is also defined as z, althoug the keyboard setting meue says it should be y! I switched the command for several keys, to avoid the y and z-problem, and always targeting in the rectangle switches to the key that i set for flying backwards! The point i get stuck is, when i have to fly or press the backward flying key in the mission. The Command Display shos "Press $S$ to fly backward", which looks kinda strange. The game doesn't react, even if i stop the engines and drone 2 gets much farther away than the necessary 250 m.
By the way, when i install version 1.0, everything works fine. BUT i cannot complete the mission, because when sending drone 1 back to the battlestar by C - 1 - 1 - 0 nothing happens, even if i wait for ages. All in all, this sounds like the game has several problems on my computer, or whatever. I hope you guys have any solution to that problem, should i try to deinstall Freespace 2 and the Wing Commander-Mod?
I really wanna try out this obviously awesome game, cause as a huge BSG-fan it just feels AMAZING sitting in a Viper and being shot out of a battlestar!!!
So say we all.
