RELEASE: Awakenings for Port 3.03
on: April 16, 2006, 02:34:04 pm
After much delay here is Awakenings redone for version 3.03 of the Port.  I have added Lightspeed's nebulae,  skyboxes, nameplates, FS1 music and included an altered music.tbl that restores FS1 success/failure music in addition to the changes required to make the missions work with version 3.x of the Port.

PLEASE PLEASE provide feedback, bugs etc.... I'm being sent abroad again in the first week of May and won't be able to access Freespace to fix anything after then until August.

You need:

FSPort v3.03
SCP CVS of at least 3.6.8 (same as Port requirement)
3.6.8 Media VPs

Lightspeed's Nebula Pack (from http://www.penguinbomb.com/lightspeed/NaRR10_Nebulae.zip)

Awakenings voice vp (awakenings-voice.vp) is required for voice acting (obtained from FSPort website)
Screenies:

dude, that would SO be desktop material if you hadn't left the HUD on. ;)

but thanks! :D

I want to have your babies.

I don't think FS1 has ever looked better than that fourth pic above.
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.

This nebula pack is pretty interesting, it's not quite as nice as the ls_neb.vp, but it is more more mixed up and quite pretty..

Any chance someone is working onf Shrouding the Light to bring it up to full spec with FSport 3.0.x ? because then i can ditch my FSport 2.3 folder completely.

:wtf: Did you miss the first three?

IMHO the fourth is the worst of the lot.  The pictures seem to have been posted in order of gorgeousness.  The first one looks prettiest, the second one second-prettiest, etc.

If the HUD were out of the shot in the fourth, it would look magnificent. I personally think the angle is perfect, but to each his own I suppose.

The second and third are my favorites, the first is good but shows my least favorite angle of the Fenris, the last one is okay... but I really don't see anything exceptional about it, it's a Fenris with a really hard-to-see grey Demon in the background.

Correct me if I´m wrong, I guess I´m running into trouble if I install the nebulae outside of a mod-folder, right?

So the right setup would be to make an awakenings folder with a mod.ini pointing to mediavps AND FSPort3.0.3?
And tp put the nebulae into the awakening-folder?

yes, put the graphics files in data/effects and the stars.tbl in data/tables in that folder.

Ok, did that and what I wrote earlier. Was fun and fine to play up to the point where you have to rescue the Minnow. The other missions have to wait a bit.

In the first mission: Is it a feature or a bug that you can´t jump out under fire?

I like the female briefing voice, makes quit a difference.

Edit: Played through the rest. Just one crash, most likely because of too many features and lack of memory.  :hopping:

All in all, fine!
Thanks for the good work.

Now I have only to wait until I can play from TVW to long after Capella in one go with one pilot....

If you get STL to work with 3.0, I will build a silver-plated statue in the corner of my basement and worship you.

Gold, of course, goes to the one who gets SAH to work with SCP.

It won't be that big a deal.  It just requires some XMT files,  and fixing one mission that uses a now deprecated SEXP.  The most annoying thing is that BR changed the default weapons for many ships, instead of setting the loadouts individually in missions.

Sol A History is already done by Shadow000, but he hasn't been able to upload it yet because he has bandwidth limititations, see the updating Inferno R1 thread.

Well, there must be _something_ you don't have right... :)

Most likely stars.tbl is not present in your mod hierarchy.  Take the stars.tbl that came with Lightspeed's nebulae and drop it in the tables folder of the location in which you have placed awakenings and see.
