Error when installing freespace demo?

[xeron]

A native update to Freespace for OS4.1 is coming soon, with its own installer that can install from the original Hyperion CD.

[xeron]

Oh wait, you're talking about the demo? I don't know if a new demo will be available...

[xeron]

Well. Its possible to modify the existing freespace installer to work on OS4.1, but I don't think the WarpOS build of the game even works on OS4.1.

[xeron]

If you remove the lines that cause the problem, the installer works. But like I said, I don't think the game will work for you even if you install it.

An update for the full game will be out soon. I don't know if a new demo will be published.

[xeron]

If you run notepad and load the installer script into it, its just a text file.

But like I said, even if you manage to install it, it almost certainly won't work.

@klx300r
You are talking about Freespace 2, which is a different game. This is Hyperion's version of Descent Freespace: The Great War we're discussing here.

[xeron]

It more likely because it was compiled for WarpOS many years ago with an ancient compiler, and used dirty tricks to get decent speed out of the old PowerUP hardware.

A new build of the full game for OS4.1 will be out soon, though.

Well, an update to the full game is available from hyperions webpage for OS4.1.

Also, you can download an updated demo for OS4.1 from OS4Depot
