its a .vp file so you just stick it in the main FS2 dir and select the campaign in the campaign room....

This is a bit off topic, but has anyone else noticed that with Fs1 port Fs2 installed the Fred always when you save puts a player entry delay of approximately two minutes to the mission and then you'll arrive two minutes after the mission starts. Thats really annoying so I'd liket to know if anyone has a solution to this.

Is the Port worth Downloading? is there anything else that is new besides the updated Graphics? and is it Fun to play?

Solution: Edit the mission in Notepad and change the start time. Save it there and it should work for a bit.

The 2 minute 18 second delay is a result of there being too many ships in the table, one of the reasons the Volition table limit was implemented. You can either edit the entry delay in Notepad after EVERY time you save a mission, or take out a large hunk of the table you're not using, like the newer ships, and put them back when you're completely done.

I've already tried that editing of the mission file with the notepad, but thanks. The reason for my question was that it's extremely annoying to edit that file all the time. Maybe I'll try removing some of ships temporarily. I actually burried a campaign idea to this port due to this problem as I lost my nerve on fooling with that notepad all the time.

Maybe I'll try to complete it if I find some time to do it.

Ps. When is the Great war from Vasudan point of view thing going to be ready?

To GalacticEmperor:

I hope you don't mind that I've just started a small campaign where you play as Vasudans. It takes place right after the fall of the Galatea and as Vasudan pilot player tries to save his homeworld from the Lucifer (everyone knows how it's going to end, I think ) It will be approximately 3 - 4 missions long and I've almost completed the first mission. Oh, and I'd like to know is there any place where to upload it.
