Blue Planet WIH Multiplayer Missions
on: January 07, 2011, 09:12:27 pm
The first test has concluded. Thanks to everyone who participated.

I have been working on some multiplayer missions for Blue Planet WIH and It's time to do some testing. Right now it's 4 dogfighting missions and one Coop. If anyone is interested in participating in the test, post a reply in this thread and we will try to arrange a time that works for everyone. Consider this a 'Sneak Peek' for a BP:WIH multiplayer mission pack that is going to be released... in due time.

One dogfight mission involves Karunas, that's right... Dogfighting Karunas



Other missions feature fighters and weapons from the Blue Planet WIH modpack. So get ready for Uriels swooping and Vulcans blazing!

Once enough interested parties are available we will form a testing group and select a time that works for everyone, I will update this post with a list of interested players as they appear.

Interested Testers: (Test Concluded)

Eh. Most people don't use MVPs when playing multi for lag's sake. Do you really expect us to try multi on WiH ?

Aside from that, I'm up for testing, if you don't mind me making everyone else lag :p
People are stupid, therefore anything popular is at best suspicious.

Sounds interesting...


Don't know when I'll be free so I guess I'll just wait and see when everybody else is and if I can make it.

That's a good reason alone to have you as a tester. I don't know what to expect in terms of latency, but I'm sure it depends on how well each player runs the campaign without framerate issues. Different machines, even low end ones would provide useful information for the feasibility of this project.

I am interested in testing too !
I have a good framerate, and a good internet connection, but i'm behind a VPN, will it be an issue (high ping) ?

Barring the insane amount of ships in campaigns I run WiH pretty well. I've never played FS2 multiplayer before but dogfighting in Karunas has piqued my interest. I have lots of free time, but time zone differences are a serious limitation.  :blah:

You could just watch my playthrough of that mish for tips :<
"Neutrality means that you don't really care, cuz the struggle goes on even when you're not there: Blind and unaware."

"We still believe in all the things that we stood by before,
and after everything we've seen here maybe even more.
I know we're not the only ones, and we were not the first,
and unapologetically we'll stand behind each word."

i was stuck on the first mission as a vishnan, that has been rectified with my current playthrough.

i noticed one bug however, the mission where you escort the temeirere battlegroup can be completed even if you die, assuming you knock out the ravana's beam cannons(i got to close and got winged by an anti fighter beam)

cudos none the less,a thoroughly enjoyable romp and *gasp* possibly better than the retail campaign

now starting on wih, hopefully get to kill some gtva <insert vulgar term here>

i am most certainly up for testing some multiplayer maps

No. In the nightmare mission you try to save the Orestes from the Luficer.
I assume he's talking about Forced Entry, since that's the only mission were you need to escort the Temeraire (as opposed to protect it, while it sits still with disabled engines) with a Ravana present.

Are there specific links to file packs or whatever I need?

Good question:
All the multiplayer mission files will be distributed at the time of the test. In the mean time, just make sure you can run FSO multiplayer (with patch) and have all the required files to be able to run the BP:WIH campaign.

Barring any necessary changes I think it wouldn't hurt to get set up beforehand.
