Freespace: Ryleh campaign
« on: July 12, 2010, 01:28:05 PM »
Hi.
 I have downloaded the ryleh.zip archive from Aminet and installed it. Or this is what i think i did, because the instructions say to copy the r#_db##.wav and r#_cb##.wav files to spesific directories of the game, but there are no such files in the archive! :confused: Furthermore, there is no mention for the .ani files that the archive contains.
 I tried to play the campaign anyway. I chose the campaign and proceeded to mission briefing. My Amiga freezes while loading the briefing of the 1st mission. What's going on?

You're probably better off going here to pick up expansion packs etc.

 We are both talking about the Amiga version of "FreeSpace: The great war", right? I can't find any expansion packs in this site, can you point me to a link please?

I haven't tried to play FreeSpace on an Amiga yet, but wouldn't any of the expansion packs work with the Amiga conversion of the FreeSpace game engine?


 In principle yes.

 It should be like this, i know, but i have yet to find a total conversion or even a campaign (apart from the unfinished Ryleh one) which is compatible. Only single missions. :(
 So, if anyone has found what i'm looking for...
