Is this thing compatible with WinXP?

Heya all. I ask cause I've d/led the core files twice already in an attempt to get this thing to work.

For some reason it'll work with the Surrender Belisarius mission that comes with the release but with any other campaign or mission, fan-made or not it crashes right at the loading screen.

So is it the XP?

Well, it works fine with my rig right now. I've been running XP since January. I'm not really sure what is causing the problems you are experiencing right now though. Sorry.

Try reinstalling the whole game all over again.

Delete everything (except the pilot files) on <your Freespace 2 dir here>/data folder

And try again. You may simply have a problem with the table files or something else in there.

Also, try making a new pilot, it may help too.

Surrender Belisarius came with FreeSpace 2...not TBP.

You need to select the Earth Minbari War Demo from the campaign room.

I've been dev'ing this MOD on Windows XP...its not an OS issue.

Ice... You noticed this? There was TBP version of the Surrender Belisarius with the files. Feeling a bit sleepy?

It sounds quite strange this your problem. I'd listen to Darkblade and reinstall ewerything again...

Have you got the 5M patch file too? It's probably not causing problems with the main TBP campaign but you might have problems with the fan made missions without it.
