for now, all the missions are from the ED Corepack. Odds are you already have these installed
http://www3.telus.net/NuclearWessels/sfc/downloads/NW_OPMissions.exe
Install OP+ 4 first if you have not done so
Below is the Mod. This is BETA and will likely not be the final installer. Run this installer and then run the "Enable AOTK" Shortcut that appears on your Desktop

Everyone remember, this is still BETA and will change so if you are bandwidth impaired, download with Care.

Just a quick heads up. If you, like me, do not install OP to the default install directory, when you get done installing the AOTK2 mod, you will have to move the .bat files to the correct OP directory. DH is being a bastard (as usual :P ) and refuses to make a minor alteration to his installer that drops the batch files the same place you told the installer to drop the mod directory.

...don't bite the hand that feeds you...

Hey, I can tease DH if I want to. :P :D

Hmm, tried to get in. Says I'm missing Met starbaseconstruction.scr - where can I get that one? It's not in the evile Dave pack - I loaded that first!

It's a stock mission

cannot access as it tells me I have the wrong fighter.txt and wrong shiplist.txt could someone give me the right ones here plz?
-
First, read the install instructions for the mod. Second, read my post about non-standard OP install locations if you don't use the steck install location for OP.
-
No sh*t Sherlock
-
Besides, the standard install etc does not include the fighter and shiplist .txt files. All I ask, if you cannot post the ones I need, then at least post the actual size of the files so that I may install the correct one without trying each and every individual one I can find through trial and error. THX.
-
BTW, I did try all the combinations I can find of fighter and shiplist .txt files I can find, and none fixed it.

-
See if there's a directory called DH123 anywhere. Should (maybe possibly) have the shiplist and fighterlist in it.
It *should * be a subdirectory of wherever you told the installer to install.
I also miss the days of "here's the ship & fighterlist, put them where they go"
Although- and I don't say this because DH has threatened to remove the L-BCV- he is doing one super job at this stuff.
-
Thanks, found DH123 and it worked.

I'm not sure if you wrote this for Windows XP or what, but when I try to run this installer, I get the message, "This installation package cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service. You must install a Windows service pack that contains a newer version of the Windows Installer service."
The machine I am trying to run it on uses WIN98SE, and I have all the windows updates installed. I just came back from microsoft.com where I made sure I had all the latest updates.
Do you have just the files I need, without the installer? I could easily install them all manually.

I will post a Zip file of all the stuff for the Manually Installers when I get home tonight.
Sorry folks, this is the only App for Installer writing that I know how to use
-
OHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!
So *I* ask for the files and get told to figure it out
Scippy asks and it's like it can't be provided soon enough
*and* he gets an apology.
Fine
We'l just see who's laughing at the end.

I had to find the DH123 file and manually copy and paste the ship and fighter lists in order to get on the server also.
Strange...

Easiest thing to do with a DH written installer is simply say
"What's the most bonehead thing he could do?" then go figure it out.
Now if *I* had written the installer ...

You volunterring?
Hexx will be writing all installer from now on, only pronble is they will only work on Mini-PCs :P
-
Pfff installers are for the weak.
Ya just take the mission /shiplist/fighterlist files and keep throwing them in directories
until the server lets you play.
Plus that way no one can make your ships turn pink.

Now would we ever do that to the Lyrans . . . .

Thanks, DH. And it's not a problem at all. I guess it's just another nudge for me to update my OS.

Be quiet, Merik. The thoughts of one man to another couldn't possibly interest you. :P

Thanks DH. Will hope to be on tonight.

Server isn't showing (but 3 others are). Will look for it later to test.

Back up, forgot to restart it after installing MS critical updates
