What does it change, minor bugfixes or something serious ?

[IPAndrews]

A few of the missions wouldn't load when I tried. Storm the Castle is still behaving slightly oddly. I'd be interested in hearing if anyone else has problems with it.

Raider Wars
I've been away too long, whats al that about then, Is a camp for TBP?

[IPAndrews]

Come on now. You're not convincing anyone .

[IPAndrews]

Has anyone had any problems?
1) Playing through the campaign with this patch installed?
2) Playing missions in the tech room with this patch installed?

Is there any actual place to obtain Raider Wars from anymore? The links on babylon.hard-light.net do not work.

[Don-DiZzLe]

Maybe u schould try this: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,40036.0.html

It's the complete TBP package updated to 3.3a and it also includes the Earth-Minbari war demo and the raider-wars campaign.

The only thing u need to add is a launcher and a FS2_SCP build, this one is has been recommended to me http://fs2source.warpcore.org/exes/latest/C21052006.zip

cuz this is the last build that still includes the -nobeampierce option.

I uploaded it HERE last night.  Took more than an hour to do it.

[Zacam]

Thank you, Trivial Psychic! That's exactly what I was looking for. I fought for 3 days to get 3.2 & 3.3 base and the 3.3a patch, but then discovered that no actually missions of any kind where there. Now, to hunt the Earth-Mimbari War package, unless you're feeling even more generous and are going to upload that one too! (I'd have your kids if you did!)

Actually, I was thinking of making the necessary modifications to make -nobeampierce a part of the ships themselves and run it with a later version, as was originally intended when -nobeampierce was released.

[IPAndrews]

That will be sorted with TBP 3.4. It's something I'm not happy putting in the RW .vp though. It's not a good thing campaigns overriding core vp tables. So until 3.4 is released it's a case of using a game engine which supports -nobeampierce as a command line argument. Anyone know which is the last stable build to do this?

This is typical of course. I try to update the campaign to work with new builds and it's already out of date. Even if it's not necessarily my fault in this case. 

[Zacam]

Yeah, I've updated a copy of the 3.3 core weapons.tbl, so far it's working beautifully.

While I was at it, I merged B5-A-Patch-3.3a into core, and then merged the RW vp's. Also doing just fine there.

Any thoughts on HT&L'ing any of the ships or textures for TBP? Given the older builds it started using, it looks like it could use it (though it's still wonderful to play)

[IPAndrews]

You might want to make that updated 3.3a weapons table available to others. Possibly. If that sounds like a good idea just post a message here and file attatch it.

Uploaded as requested along with the Single-Mission pack that was originally with R3.0 as well.  As for the "Kids" offer, I'm already spoken for.   However, if you wish to name one of your kids after me, perhaps as the middle-name or something, that would be acceptable.

I think I can do that once I've verified and tested it thoroughly. (I'm old school, I don't trust implicitly in the fact that having changed them all means that they're all working. )

w00t! Very shiney. I see that there's still some room for working on TBP, I'll see what I can do to be useful for it. And for the kids, that's probably a good thing since it would necessitate surgery on my part to acomplish. Somehow though, I didn't think _my_ other half would agree to the birth certificate amendment, but I did try.

You're using an old version of the game engine. The patch is designed to work with new versions of the game engine.

[loneman]

I'm running RW with TBP 3.3 with 3.3a patch applied and fs2_open_Red_2006-01-09-P4_r

[PSI-KILLER]

Do you have the RW patch installed?   my guess in the dark.
