So, I guess the problem is to figure what thing the mission is looking for that makes the game CTD.

I agree if there was anything modded that was used to write the mission it will not work without that mod enabled. Also it will not load into the Mission Editor without the MOD enabled.

Some 1.4 missions will play in 1.5 BUT the ones I have tried to 'fix' do not open in the Mission Editor 1.5 if they were written with 1.4.
I have noted some changes found by looking at the files in Notepad:

1. A BB in the original 1.4 mission is listed as Type 11, in 1.5 it is listed as a Type=20 so the cfg file will not agree with the ship in the mission. I think one other ship was wrong but not sure on that.

2. Found these entries in a 1.5 ship description that do not appear in a 1.4 ship description.

A 1.4 Description:

A 1.5 description:

The items highlighted in green are not in a 1.4 description.


Here is a version that will work with stock 1.5. If you have any MODs enabled it may affect the misssion possibly even a CTD.

Extract to your Single Mission folder, it is not set up as a MOD. Let me know if you find any problems.

guys, maybe it would just be simpler to remake a cloned version using the old mission as a blueprint to guide you.

seems it would involve less time and effort that way IMHO

I've been attempting to do that but have been finding it hard to get the same timing of the ships where they go and so forth. Hopefully, by this weekend I'll have something playable.

Check a few posts back. I made it playable for 1.5. All I did was put each unit into the Mission Editor and then copy and paste all coordinates, headings, dates/tmes and waypoints using notepad. Save and done.

You keep asking the same question, but I try to help you won't answer.

Yes, the link works.

What Browser are you using? Version?
Are you left clicking the link? or trying to "Save Link As..." ?

PHP is part of the web page, look it up, look on wiki. It is used in the development of web pages.

Type this into your web browser address bar (or copy/paste)Press "enter" and see what you get. If you type it in there is an underline _ between the 1_5
