Title: FE & 1.3 For non-Geeks ?
Post by: blewyn on April 17, 2008, 08:19:38 AM
Sorry to bother the board with the same question yet again....but does the single player campaign of FE work with 1.3, and if so what's the correct install order (I've seen the sticky but I'm not sure I understand it).

The 'date modified' on my FE installer file is from 2005......

Most FE missions work.  I think there are two that don't work properly.  Firing Back will cause an AV after the last mega gun blast is fired.  I'll have to look for the name of the second mission I know doesn't work properly.  It is the one right before Heart of Darkness on Facility.  I believe the first mission on that planet.  The one that starts out with the Hadean Cons building jammers and you have to snipe on of the scouts.

Well looky at what just blewyn...  sorry, couldn't resist.  :-)

1. Make a new install of PB3.

2. Download the first file and unzip it to the new PB3 install.

3. Delete the FE_PB3_Maps folder.

4. Download and unzip the second file to the new install.

I found Square Eyes' FE maps, Cerberus, Reptilian realm, and X-Bones, so I'm including them in the next zip.  Found/corrected a bunch of effect errors in doing so.

Also trying t get FE Trent included too.

Also making the maps sort correctly in the map list.  Some are out of order.

I'm going to put out another full build for this in an hour or so.

Haven't played yet, but first noticed that under multiplayer or instant the file 3tsnp4 is name d the same. I'm going to install on the other pc next and very it's there also.

it is there, had to rename the file temporarily under instant so I could play multi. Also, Windy noticed one small thing. Somehow she had targeted herself and she always had a "sabre tank" target on her hud, but could never face it because the target seemed to stay on the top portion of hud and wouldn't go away when "T" was pressed. I just assumed she target herself, we laughed (because I thought that would have to be impossible) and went and played a good game on Mars. No problems.

Good to hear. I had forgotten to say that I had seen Snipe Venus (3tsnp4) in the IA list, so I had moved it out (I thought...  :| ).

Not sure why about the targeting.  Thought I had disabled objectives.  Pretty sure I had.

Also, I apologize to everyone for all the frustrations caused by the AIP's not switching before.   :|

Anyways, if you find any maps that don't have Extra Options or any other problems, please let me know.

:-)

Looking closer, it looks like you may have installed over the old FE install.  The zip doesn't have the dupes.

I did do that, I'll make a new install.

I think the targeting thing is a different bug.  If you select or give a command to a unit as the pilot hops out and you get in it will stay selected, but since you are inside the unit it had the effect you described, or if the other player tells you to defend the ship you're in.

Looks like I have a few building/ship requirements to straighten out.  The AI got hung up trying to build some things in AI Scion vs Human Hadean.

Thank you. I don't think I've even touched Strat yet.
