Topic: SFC1 Multiplayer only? SFC OP more skirmish?

[chasisaac]

I dug out an old Wintel Box.   I am able to play SFCOP on it. I tried loading SFC1 (Gold)  patched to the last version. However, on SFC1 I am only able to play in multiplayer mode. I would like to play in skirmish or campaign mode.



Also for SFC OP are there more skirmishes ?  I am looking for now to play a classic dual.

Check at Battleclinic in the (of all places) scripts section.

Beware that there are some things there that were uploaded NOT BY THE AUTHOR and are tagged wrong as to which game they are for (and some aren't tagged at all.). There are some skirmish scripts there (and mods) that I did, for example, that someone uploaded as being compatible for OP and EAW. THEY AREN'T. Scripts for EAW won't work in OP, or visa versa. The scripts for "The Ftr and PF Mod" that I did are for EAW only. Sometime I'll have to write Mr. Cue so we can get it sorted. The stuff marked as just for OP should be OK though. If you do put a script for EAW into OP it'll CTD. No biggie. Just remove it after and all will be fine. It won't break anything. There are some pretty cool skirmish scripts for OP worth trying out. You're gonna have to sort through them though, unfortunately.

I had this happen when I went back and installed it a week or two back as well - try playing it directly off the CD, rather than the installed executable.  After a later reboot I was also able to play directly off the install.

SFC1 had a CD protection feature that if you don't have the disc in the drive, only multiplayer is available. (I think one cd was good for 4 people or something) Kinda like the Spawn feature for Starcraft.

I believe there are no-cd patches that circumvent it, but don't recall where at the moment.

I've got a copy.  If anyone's interested, I'll have to dig through my CDROMs and Zip disks.  Not a fun prospect, so only if anyone seriously wants it.
