Ok, well using your tables I get through the briefings, but it crashes to the desktop as soon as the mission starts.

ok, i tried one of my own missions and it worked well ... so far. the game crashes when i open the weapon loadout screen (because of the loadout pictures of the ships - i think)...
fire sounds for fighter beams arn't implemented, are they?

the sounds were, then they wern't, then they were again but a lot better, then they didn't again, it's my next big part to get working properly once I can get this working for everybody

the problem is that most beams are
a.) fired from turrets
b.) last more than one frame
so basicly I have had to move all (well a lot) the data that got stored in the turret and the beam it'self and moved it into the fireing ship's data structure, so far this has proven most dificult in setting the sound becase it has to get created when it's fired, but I can't get the location for the sound to come from until much later in the code, were I can't realy get to the data in the ship,
I'm going to try setting it to the location of the ship then later changeing it to were it's suposed to be.

ok let me see the debug spew for these new crashes

"stoped" is a debug mesage to see if my "weapon has stoped" thing is working, wich it isn't. it's for getting (mostly) fighter beams to have a warmup and warm down, but it has other aplications too

the second item is a small bug in the Zbias of the beam, I'm gona get around to seting it to 0 for the player ship eventualy

I uploaded a new revision, I don't know what if anything is diferent in the EXE, but I 'think' I fixed the tables
