I've converted the 5 demo single player missions to multiplayer coop missions. They work fine with AI wingmen, but I haven't tried it yet with other people.

Since I do not have a good place to upload them, I will just let everyone know how to do it yourself.

Open up the mission "Bab5-Demo1.fs2" in FRED2. It should give an error about there not being any secondary weapons.

First go to "Editors", then "Mission specs" (or press Shift-N) and set the mission to Multiplayer (in the upper left) and change the max respawns to whatever you want (1 sounds good to me). Press "ok"

Then go to "Editors", then Ships (or press Shift-S). Use "Select Ships" and select "Alpha 1". Then select "weapons" and change Missle Bank 1 from "None" to "<none>", then close the ship editor.

Lastly, go to "File" then "Save as" and save the mission as "Bab5-Multi1.fs2".

Repeat the process for missions 2-5 and there you go. I have figured out how to make it into a multiplayer campaign yet, but I just started using FRED2 yesterday.

just get on PXO and play with as many mod members as you can, you will be destributing them and they will distribute it with anyone they play
it would spread like a disese... wait bad example... hmm

dont forget to change your wingmen in ships editor to player ships so more then one person can play the multi mission
and then change all the wingmen weapons to the missile <none>

Just a question, if people are going to independently create new single/multi - player missions based upon the Minbari War conversion models then where would someone be able to get them from?

Fantastic job with the conversion guys, keep up the good work.

Or a separate subsection. I'll have to talk to Remora about that.
