    • Help in F25 2.0


      I am doing the Xarnez mission string and am stuck on the one where you have to find the Kytarri fleet. I have just done the one where you see that the station is gone. Then they
      tell you to go to F25 to fight the bad guys but there aren't any there. And when you land it doesn't do anything. Help me please!
      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      P.S. Anyone know where i can download Mission Control? Its not on the Ambrosia place anymore.

      When you land, text should appear, unless you are further than you think you are. If that's the case, try searching key Miranu outposts that might be military targets. Namely, Mira, New Mira, Outpost Zachit, etc..

    • The mission is "Defend F25". The discription is Head to F25 and try to locate the Empire fleet. There is a red arrow on F25.

      "Do not try to bend the spoon, that is impossible. Simply try to realize the truth." "What is that?" "There is no spoon" "There is no spoon..." Eirrrrnnn

    • Ack, this is getting really old. I tried every possible thing to do-----I AM STUCK! I have tried this mission over and over again but I can't get anywhere...No text at F25, no fleet anywhere, nothing. I know that you hate it when people say this but mightn't there be a little teeny tiny itsy bitsy bug here? Arg, there is nothing I can do.....I give up

    • Ok, I get the dumb award, but how the heck is this pilot creator supposed to work? Nothing in the docs say how, and when I make a new player with the plugin in the right folder it just makes the usual player, nothing special. Can anyone help?

      I just checked through the entire mission. There is nothing wrong with it, man. Just out of curiousity, do you see 16 Xarnez ships following you around? If not, your problems might be there. The mission objective is for you to observe those ships which basically follow you around.

      Land on Earth, go into the bar. Follow the instructions from there. 😄

    • I was wondering about the pilot builder myself. Thanks for asking for me Phaedrus.

    • Ok, heres another dumb question. HOW THE **** HAS ANYONE DEFEATED THOSE ZIDIGAR? I Thought I was good at EVO, but I can't even dent those. Even if I still had my massively upgraded UE Cruiser (used about 3 plugin/cheats to do it) I couldn't of survived against the 20 or so phased beams of just the fighters. Could someone tell me how they did it? Also, it says that you get access to UE ships with the player creator, but I didn't get em. Did I do something wrong?

      I did it pretty easily, actually. When I jumped in system, I immediately turned around and burned my way back to the edge of the system (emptying my fuel). This got me far away from the Zids so when they jumped in I immediately bribed 4-6 of the fighters, and blew the rest away with 80-100 Defense Pods from 8 launchers. Destroying the main ships was easy after that, using whatever long range weaponry or fighter craft I had.

    • There are no ships with me. Nothing follows me around. Did I do something worng? Where should I land? I have tried just about everything. No ships at all.

      For all the other questions, boy, I thought I was an idiot! Those ones have boosted my self esteem greatly! Thanks for all who posted!

    • Sorry. That was very mean of me :frown:

    • Yes, I'm also having probs with the pilot builder..I didn't get any UE vessals to purchase, and seems to have dropped me there... did I miss something?

    • I got stuck in the same mission as the note at the start of this topic - when I got the Defend F-25 mission, I saw no ships, and landing on Aenecia didn't give me the mission completion.

      Looking at the misn resource, nothing seemed wrong, but I never saw the ships associated with the mission - neither the ones that I'm supposed to observe, or the aux ships I noticed in the resource. After fiddling a while in the game to no effect, I started modifying the resource.

      Thinking perhaps it was a problem that both fleets were sharing a dude resource, I made a copy of it and used that for the auxships. That made the aux ships appear in the game, but not the ships I needed to observe. So I switched the dude resources - now the aux ships had the original one, and the fleet to observe had the new one. No dice - I still only saw the aux ships. So I got rid of the aux ships, reduced the number of the ships to observe, and changed their dude resource to something from the original game (each time checking the game to see if they'd appear), and never saw the fleet. I finally got rid of all of the ships in the mission just so that I could continue on.

    • Don't worry. Look at your map or something, you'll see where you need to go. Also, just look at the text of the mission. Do what it says to do after the step you're having problems with. Do that and it'll probably fix the problem.

    • Ok, I'm eating crow. I'm on this same defend F-25 mission. Nothing. No ships. No fleet. Whats up with this?

    • Also, another question. Is it ever possible to get the Imperial Dreadnaughts?

      bomb,

      In checking over my notes from the 5-6 pilots I sent through that part of the misn string, my only comment was that even my escorts were attacking me before a single shot was fired. We (you and I) attributed this to a problem with the first Pilot Builder beta ship using the escaped pod, I think. The second Pilot Builder changed the beta ship offering so that this was a non-issue. So I am thinking, that perhaps the problem here is with the Pilot Builder and/or ship slot used in the rsrc? I'm no expert.... does that make sense?
