I've just finished replaying the SFC:EAW single-player campaigns under OP. ..

Namely:

Klingon/Hydran/Lyran vs Mirak
Empires Vs ISC
Mirak Vs Lyran (War of Return)
ISC War of Pacification (ISC Vs Empires)

.. what does that mean? Oh. .. I was fixing the problems and bugs as I went along. The updated package is at:
http://klingon.stasis.ca/EAW_missions/EAW_campaigns_for_OP-20030303.zip

Also, I've posted an archive of the updated Sources (set in an OP build environment.. ):
http://klingon.stasis.ca/EAW_missions/eaw_campaigns_for_OP_Scripts-20030305.zip

Fixed missions:

Uni_7BattleGrave.scr
Uni_1Desecration.scr
Uni_7Gates.scr
Uni_9Edge.scr
Mir_7Gates.scr

Thank you Firesoul!

Not much point in having great looking ships with no missions to play them in.

How is your project coming along?

*plays the 0303 missions with fixed battle at grave of thoughts*

Yay. Neeto.

Any chance the firing error in Orion Moon will be updated? The planet isn't becoming vulnerable when it launches ships, still.

FireSoul · « **Reply #6 on:** March 07, 2003, 05:33:18 am »

I haven't hit that mission while I played. .. so I guess it means I haven't reviewed it.
*sigh* .. let's see..

FireSoul · « **Reply #7 on:** March 07, 2003, 07:26:15 am »

Arrrh-HEM!

It works for me. The moon becomes vulnerable for 0.5 turns, which means about 15 secs at Speed 8. If you miss the opportunity, then you have to kill another ship.

15 seconds at speed 8?!

Hmm. I /know/ I've dumped full weapons into the planet within 15 seconds, at speed 8. Hell, I had the fighters kill the ship, simply so I /could/ do it within 15 seconds. Or hell, within -5- seconds..

And its never once worked. I can't beam to it even then

I'll try it again in OP, the current EAW version did the same thing tho.

FireSoul · « **Reply #9 on:** March 07, 2003, 11:52:13 am »

Sorry.. the mission works.
I played it twice.

Oh well, I must just be losing my mind then

Carrie · « **Reply #11 on:** March 07, 2003, 01:53:21 pm »

*plays it again, and wins*

Hmm. This time I destroyed the ori myself, before using other weapons to fire on the planet. That worked. Go fig...

The Postman · « **Reply #13 on:** March 07, 2003, 06:44:47 pm »

I know what I reported before about" Battle at the Grave of Thoughts" (OP, Fed), but I just played it again and the replacement cruisers never showed. The rescue ships came right on time however. Is this a one time glitch or does it need to be tweaked some more?

Thanks for all your hard work on this.

FireSoul · « **Reply #14 on:** March 07, 2003, 07:58:12 pm »

I worked hard on BatGot, and I can assure you that it worked for every time I played it... that must've been about 8-10 times.

.. what version of it do you have? From my latest release?
Note: BatGot requires the standard shiplist (or OP+).

The Postman · « **Reply #15 on:** March 08, 2003, 06:59:42 am »

Are you telling me that I can't have any additional ships in the shiplist besides yours. If that is true, than look no further because I had added a F-BCE refit and was using it for this battle. This ship has provided me with great service other wise. I will replay it with a stock ship out of your stock + list.
I don't know which version I have except I got it right after You fixed it. I am planning on ripping OP out and rebuilding from scratch with all of your projects once the patch comes out.
Would it be possible to retain all of the stock Taldren scripts along with the EAW scripts and the modified scripts from Dave in one large .mct. This way we would have access to all of the possible missions. I have played many of Dave's missions (and a great addition they are) in a Fed-ISC campaign but I didn't see any stock scripts.
Thank you again

No.. I'm saying the game uses specific ships for the ally.
As per the code:
Code:


   switch ( allyRace )
   {
   case kFederation:
      {
         mCreateShip(   typeid( tAllyShip ), "F-BCG", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip(   typeid( tAllyShip ), "F-BCJ", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;

   case kKlingon:
      {
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "K-D6D", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "K-D7C", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;

   case kRomulan:
      {
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "R-K7R", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "R-KCR", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;

   case kLyran:
      {
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "L-BC", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "L-BCPP", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;

   case kGorn:
      {
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "G-BC", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "G-BCH", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;

   case kHydran:
      {
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "H-OV", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "H-D7H", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;

   case kMirak:
      {
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "Z-BCH", kStartPosition_H, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
         mCreateShip( typeid( tAllyShip ), "Z-BC", kStartPosition_I, kNoMetaShipID, 
                     kAllyShip2, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
      }
      break;
   }
}

So look closely.. .. in the case of Federation, the ships "F-BCG" and "F-BCJ" are being used. Of course, they have to be present in the shiplist. That's what I meant by original shiplist..
.. what if you were using a hacked up shiplist where these ships were missing?

-- Luc
PS: used the most recent version?

The Postman · « **Reply #18 on:** March 08, 2003, 07:26:38 am »

I have not deleted any ships from any of my lists. I had F-BCJ and aF-BCG as my initial escorts. I was flying a F-BCER. I have the film from this battle saved. Would you like to have a copy?
Also note I changed my earlier post while you were responding to it. I did not realize you would respond so quickly.
