Version 4 of the public Beta has been released (link in summary section), go try it now! Our goal is to create an accurate and fun space combat experience from the Original Star Wars Trilogy. We have analyzed all the original space battles and, to the best of our abilities, we have attempted to capture the same combat style and overall atmosphere from the films. Just like the movies, ships have high velocities, a focus on primary weapons, and encounters are deadly and only survived by those with experience, teamwork, and some skillful use of the force... We chose to use the powerful and actively maintained Freespace 2 Open engine. It provides an engine that is easy for almost any machine to run while at the same time allowing for high quality visual effects, smart AI, and massive battles. The engine is constantly being updated and worked on, and provides very effective modding capabilities along with excellent mission and campaign creation tools.

Never tried modding FS2 until now, and it looks insanely complicated from the instructions, and I don't know where to start. Halp plox?

FS2 is actually one of the most straightforward games to mod I have come across. Here is a helpful site:

I 100% have done everything right. I am starting the game and getting the Campaign Error. It can't see the star wars Campaign. Just the Freespace 2 Campaign from the original Folders. The new MediaVPs_2014 campaign works just fine. Do the MediaVPs need to be in the star wars folder or its data folder?

so nice when someone creates a mod but doesn't include a readme or any instructions on how to get it working, this one was a waste of time and downloading

There is no custom campaign so you need to use the mission in the Techroom. Also a readme is included along with instructions and links. Since this is a personal fanmade project we don't have the ability to be like Steam where there is 24/7 tech support and one-click installation.
