Hey Dave How's this coming along. Should I DL it now as is, or do you think that you'll have the mission fixed soon?

Found the problem (those null ptrs will get you every time )

I should have a fixed version posted in a couple of hours

dave

EDIT: OK, fixed packs are posted now for both OP and EAW.

I'll give this about another week of testing before I remove the "beta" tag, but I think we're about ready.

At the moment it does NOT handle customized location of script folders, but I'll add that in the next week or two (e.g. if you've manually edited your MetaAssets\ServerProfiles\Singleplayer\Assets.gf file to point at a custom scripts folder)

Thanks. I wasn't trying to rush you, or anything

Dave,

Do any of these missions overwrite anything used in SG3?  Want to start playing on my test EAW server but don't want to screw up my SG3 stuff.

Yeah, sorry DH, I think they will (ultimately want to replace the ED pack with this one, so left the names the same)

sorry 'bout that,
dave

NW, are the updated packs posted now?

Also any chance you'll tackle repair roundeous , the Kobyashi Maru,  the Quantum factor or other SFC1 missions now that summer is upon us?

Qapla!

Yup, the updated ones are up.

Not sure what kind of a timetable we're looking at for the SFC1 mission conversion - I'm playing with some DB stuff right now (aside from cleaning up anything that comes up with the configurable pack) but might look at them after that.

suggestion, new idea:

Does your "superfleet" mission, the one where you got a sun up your @$$ .. , does it give you a medal if you kill them all?
It really should.

HELP!

NW, the pre-6/10 beat worked fine but as of last night I FINALLY d/l the 6/10 version and now I keep crashing to desktop! I don't remember if I was supposed to remove a file or not.   Is the NW gf thingy supposed to be moved to the Meta Assests for instance?

Please advise.

Hmmm - no, the .gf file should sit in the same directory as your .scr files.

When do the CTDs occur?   (when loading game, on briefing screen, during mission, at end of mission ... ??)

One quick stupid question (I ask because I've actually done this) you did download the right pack for whichever game?  (you didn't unzip the EAW pack into your OP folder or vice versa?)  Come to think of it, I better check and make sure I didn't do that with the upload

Ah ... here may be the problem ... the current version is 6/13 not 6/10.

The 6/10 version was the one with crash problems (discussed a few posts up above here somewhere)

If you use the link at the top of this thread it should always take you to the most current version

Still crashing to desktop after d/l the beta missions twice.  I think I'll  reinstall the pre-6/10 beta and just wait for the official missions.

NW, you make really cool missions. Thank you for all your support.

The OP version crashes to desktop at the green loading screen (with the Orion DN pic)

 I'm sure you'll have this worked out for the official non-beta release. Thanks again.

OK, the problem may have been in the way I had things packaged up - some undesirable old rubbish got included by accident.

Try going to your Assets/scripts folder and removing the following three files
Met_NW7Patrol.scr
Met_NW10PatrolAllied.scr
Met_NW7NonDestBSAssault.scr

Then grab the repackaged zip file from the link above, sorry for yet another download!

Hopefully this will clear up your problem

Seems to have worked. No problems noted so far.

 I love these missions and am looking forward to playing many more you crank out for us.

Thanks for all your help.

So when can we take the "Beta" designate off of the Config Mission Pack?

And thanks, Dave!

I downloaded these missions today (7/10) so you know which version I have. I was playing Planetary Defence as a Fed when I tried to switch to command to an SB when everything froze up. I could not get to the task manager to get out of it. I had to dump the power and reboot.

Great job on the missions.
What is the difference between Planet Defence and Planetary Defence?
