One more stupid question. I have the Op missions.zip , Op+refit, & NW_EAWtoOP_Campaigns. What else do I need from your site to run the EAW campaign on OP with your shiplist?

OPMissions.zip -- EvilDave missionpack for OP *check*
op_plusrefit_shiplist-20030320.zip (version 1.2) *check*
NW_EAWtoOP_Campaigns.zip -- Campaign (.MCT) files *check*

You lack the EAW mission scripts themselves... EAW_campaigns_for_OP-20030303.zip which
DOES include some .MCT files, but without the ED material references. So the MCT files here
get replaced by the contents of NW_EAWtoOP_Campaigns.zip .

Hi Firesoul!

Can you post the link again to your converted EAW missions ported to OP? I can't seem to locate those anymore. Just loaded up a fresh install of OP with the patch and your Shiplist and would very much like to have the old missions put back in place for a more complete experience.

Thanks!

*scratches her head*

Anyone been having a problem with the OP+ stuff?

I loaded it on tonight, and started playing a campaign with it. When I moved into Klingon space with my NCA, the first scout mission I got had the probe I fired to see the ship start circling around the ship repeatedly, followed by a CTD. Since then, every mission I take inside KE space has caused a CTD. I'm not sure if its OP+ or something else, I was playing Hydran earlier tonight with an original shiplist, and didn't have the problems...

*wonders if its her FCL model. hrm. Will do more testing and post*

I'd delete it now, but I can't. As soon as I post this, I play scout again, and it doesn't do it. Of course. It wants me to look like an idiot.

YOu followed all the instructions in the readme for the installation?

Carrie · « **Reply #25 on:** March 25, 2003, 11:38:49 pm »

*checks to make sure she copied ship and fighter list to both spots*

Hmm. I copied all the files to the right spots, the figher list looks unchanged. Shipnames and Strings to assets/strings, shiplist/fighterlist to Assets/Specs and /MetaAssets...

Still wondering if its the model though. I replaced a bunch of visual files once, and the photon torpedos acted like that, and the game again crashed. But I didn't change the probe visual, and its crashing without doihng that.

wasn't me..

Carrie · « **Reply #27 on:** March 26, 2003, 12:29:08 am »

I doubt it was. I'm gonna try it with a different ship if it does it again. Hate to think a P81 model caused it, but...

On second check, I'm gonna test it in the morning. I'm betting it just might be my new kca model causing it, that's shown up every time it's crashed. Damn. *mutters*

*checks her models* Sure enough, I'm an idiot. Ignore me. Forgot to rename the D7 model to kca, from kd7.

And just for a playtesting comment, since I'm playingiOP+ for the first time, I love the new stuff

Too bad the F-DNHdr is expensive to operate with large fast missiles

Carrie · « **Reply #29 on:** March 26, 2003, 03:24:29 pm »

Hmm, forum didn't update and note that I posted after Firesoul. Fixing.

FireSoul · « **Reply #30 on:** March 26, 2003, 03:27:14 pm »

Ok.. so if I understand properly, you probed a ship with no model. Ok.

Carrie · « **Reply #31 on:** March 26, 2003, 03:34:08 pm »

Essentially. It had something of a model there (I think) but didn't respond to it properly. The new ship list is really neeto! Fun to face down all sorts of new and interesting problems from the other guys, even in single player.

I've always been a fan of the NCA/NCC tho, and still wander towards that, to play myself.

How do I make the shipnames file give me the right names in player ships? It seems to actually work right when its making AI ships, but player ones are still glopping out of shipnames.gf, which still blatantly ignores any edits to its shiplist.

NuclearWessels · « **Reply #32 on:** March 26, 2003, 05:22:56 pm »

I have to agree - this is the first time I've played with the OP+ and I'm loving it!
Great work Firesoul!

Those seeking models for the OP+ ship list are encouraged to honor Fleetdock 13 for a fine selection of TOS ships, all races.

The URL is..

FireSoul · « **Reply #35 on:** March 27, 2003, 04:23:20 pm »

They're not in SFC's style.
.. really, the only ships that need models in OP+ are the tugs. The rest don't need models as per the basic OP+ shiplist.

Of course, it's all right to mod your own shiplist if you like any 3rd party model.

Just one random rant, cause I can.

the K-C7V was the brightest idea they had. Any chance the other BCVs might be made more like it, in the next revision?

The C7V was more stylistically correct to me, as what a BCV should be. Using the nice BC model, rather than the clunky CV model like the UFP and a few others do. For converting the F-BCV, it only takes switching around one torp tpoint and one missile point, and moving the other missile point to a 'valid' spot, to make it a BCG with fighters, like the C7V is a C7 with fighters.

FireSoul · « **Reply #37 on:** March 27, 2003, 06:51:51 pm »

I don't follow.. you want the standard model used because it looks better?
-- Luc

Carrie · « **Reply #38 on:** March 27, 2003, 07:04:03 pm »

Essentially what I mean is (for UFP) using the Excelsior model rather than the same model as the CVA and SCS. And the equivalent else-empire.

Just a matter of relinking which model file it looks for, and minor adaptation of hardpoints to changed UI... maybe not even worth it, cept that I like the UFP one better that way ;b

Maybe in the next release..
