sorry orpheus, but I found this campaign did not live up to the standard of you other campaigns.  Its quite annoying for you to do two missions to "weaken the capabilities" of the destroyer only to see it has little or no effect for the attack on it.  That fighter sweep mission? Yeah, pretty pointless, considering the destroyer spawned unlimited fighters untill it died anyway.  Ditto on the supply raid.

that is why wanted to re-do that mission but I simply don't have the time to do that as well as some other things (I barely can find the time to answer your post)

let's see if version 1.1 will do any good once I find the time to scratch anything for a patch together

I've kinda re-done the last mission... anyone wants to try and tell me if its any better?

note: some things are still missing though - I need to adjust the briefing and add a little more combat chatter perhaps

but be prepared that I'll re-release LoA as soon as SOMEONE FINALLY POSTS A REPLY TO THE NEW END MISSION *Athestic swearing*

I feel honored (again)
-- but maybe you could have waited until the release of 1.1 which includes a second campaign file which features the new ending (so players can decide what ending is better)

Much better, though it may be a testament to my lack of skill that the Temple always ends up colliding with the Myrmidon and my wingmen end up dead (more waves for beta and gamma wings maybe?). I suppose the way to win this is to protect your 3 cruisers long enough for them to inflict damage? (not sure if this counts as a spoiler)

noted -- Let me see if I can do about it (balancing these 3 side battles is *difficult* 'cause the AI somehow was problems with picking its targets etc.

Okay,
this will be my last release for a while (and this isn't actually a release)... from tomorrow on I'm doing my one year term of military service which I have to do... but I'll come back in a years time - in the meantime I'll still do some posting and I'll organize some stuff...

soo - enough friendly chatting; here it is "The Light of Antares" Version 1.1:
Currently Only Avalible at MyDataBus
(I hope this will change soon)

Changes:
- the debriefing of Mission 4 is now working
- I re-did Mission 5 to a nice, chalanging and well balanced space battle

Guys,

Orph3u5 campaigns are great but so difficult to find. Can someone post the links on the freespace wiki. I updated Light of Antares...

http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Light_of_Antares_%2AP

Please inform me once you do so.

Orph3u5, maybe I am a bit late and you already went to your military service but if not, I wish you all the best.

just to inform you all;
MyDataBus kicked my files off their server 3 months ago (when they killed all free hosting) and ever since I've tried to set up my own site with webspace for the my "Memories of the Great War"-campaign series ("Rain On Ribos 4", "Hellgate Ikeya", "The Light of Antares", "Crossing Styx" and "Words of the Prophet")

but sadly I'm currently stuck with my military service and so I'm not very often at home (my stationed far away from my hometown) so all work on this will be delayed...  :(  :(

Here is a shortcut to all three of the current Rain on ribos campaigns (Rain On Ribos 4", "Hellgate Ikeya", "The Light of Antares")  The three campaigns are in one zip file posted on file front.  Some of Orpheus' campaigns can be accessed through white omega production studio ( http://wo.proxima-fleet.com/ )
