Sectorgame

So I'm a lunatic. I already knew that.

I've got a day off, so I'm going to sit down and build five missions in 24 hours and release it as a campaign. First mission looks to take only 90 minutes to FRED, probably less. Haha. Take that.

We'll see if anyone actually notices my saying that on HLP.

rather you than me

Welcome to the world of 24-hour frenzys!

One mission down, one in balance tweaking.

At this rate I'll be done before noon.

EDIT: Two missions down.

Interesting idea. Not something I could do. I always have to complicate things

Good luck with it.

Alas, I have been thwarted by the demons of FRED. Maybe somebody will figure it out on HLP before the deadline, but I doubt it.

*shrugs* i'm making a full-fledged 26 mission campaign over here. I have yet to encounter any problems, but i have one suggestion:

Are you sure your using milliseconds where you should be using milliseconds and seconds where you should use seconds? Done that sooo many times... Oh yeah, sure, we'll just way 5000 seconds before the next wave comes in *yawn* xP

Anywayz good luck.

Yup. I learned that one with my first campaign.

The problem that's defeating me now is FSO absolutely insists the player be in an Aeolus (it was originally a Deimos too, but I changed it in the hope that might fix it...no good) in the third mission, and nothing I can do seems to change its mind.

Bizzare, i just finished my 2nd mission with very few errors, any i had were quickly fixed. However, there is ONE error that i did a workaround for - i can't set the cargo box's cargo. WTF? Do i have to use Terran cargo boxes? Because even if i switched to them it wouldn't let me set it...

EDIT: nvm, fixed

That is bizzare. I can't think of any reason FRED would do that.

I swear FRED is out to get me or something.

"Assert: Player_start_shipnum != -1"

Now how the hell did that happen?

EDIT: Somehow Alpha's arrival cue is set to false. Every time I save from FRED, Alpha's arrival cue gets set to false. Can fix it in notepad, but it reverts on the next save. 0,o

datsa weird...

VP file of first 4 missions to my campaign made! Yay! has a few odds and ends though, still, YAY!

so far no really really fucked up things with FRED

Shivan speech is hard to hear though

Good luck thar! wait, is this a mod in any way or just standerd campaign?

Any chance I could get hold of that mission. I want to see what's causing that.

If it's a mod, I'd be rather impressed, considering I have my entire tables folder renamed.

Kara: working on it. Should be up momentarily. I'm going to try rebuilding from scratch after that.

FRED hates you.

The missions opened fine in FRED for me. I tried 3.6.9 release and debug and CVS debug with no problems.
