The Path Not Taken



Shipset Download
The Path Not Taken shipset version 1.3, the final version barring disaster, has been completed and released.

For modem users or people with less-reliable connections, I have also split the shipset into eleven files, each one less than 1.4 mb in size. The included EXE file will combine these 11 part-files into the shipset for you.

  • Installer, Path Not Taken version 1.3 (17 kb)

  • Part 1, Path Not Taken version 1.3

  • Part 2, Path Not Taken version 1.3

  • Part 3, Path Not Taken version 1.3

  • Part 4, Path Not Taken version 1.3

  • Part 5, Path Not Taken version 1.3



    • Installation Instructions:
      Place all 11 zip files in the same directory. Unzip the contents of "Path1_3_INSTALLER.zip" into this directory, and run the file "Create_Path1_3.exe". That will combine all the part files into the shipset for you.



    This latest version makes several important corrections to the Union campaign:

    • Two redundant OPTs have been removed from the shipset file, reducing the shipset's file size by about 600 kb. The two redundant OPTs were the T-Wing and R-41; why I included them in the shipset at all, I can't fathom.
    • Union Mission 11: friendly heavy lifter will now arrive when E-Wing is disabled.
    • Union Mission 12: the unreasonably extreme distances the player is forced to cover have been shortened considerably.
    • Union Mission 13: timing errors with in-flight messages have been corrected.
    • Union Mission 17: timing errors with in-flight messages have been corrected.
    • Union Mission 21: the failed debreifing text for a previous mission was actually copied-and-pasted in front of mission 21's text briefing. This has been corrected. God knows how I missed this the first time around...
    • Minor spelling and grammatic corrections to the Union Campaign missions.
    • Coalition Mission 25: failure of an enemy flight group to arrive made the mission unbeatable; this was corrected in version 1.2.

    Also, to use this shipset, you must have a copy of Connor's incredible Shipset Launcher, which will automatically install the shipset into XvT, and then clean it away when you're through playing it.
