I remember a bug in Tie Fighters floppy version that blocked me from finishing the game. A shuttle was missing fom mission3, battle2 (phantele). Does anyone know where could I find the patched map?
If you have the Windows version (from the "X-Wing Collector's Series"), the mission should be patched already. :)
No no, I have the floppy version.
If only someone could send me that file..
It might be worth it to get the Collector's Series, then (or, if you're hung up on the iMuse music that you'll lose in the Collector's Series version of the game, find the "Collector's CD-ROM", which is also a DOS version and will have the mission patch, on Ebay). ;)
I have the W95 CD.
Later tonight I'll see if there's any way to extract that mission and get it to you.
Thank you edlib for your help
I don't remember exactly what was the bugged mission:
"B2M3fm.tie", "B3M3fm.tie" or "B4M3fm.tie"
Do you have them?
I'm not very sure that I can use the cd mission, but if it's possible I'll send you my email in a private message
Sorry. Busy all day yesterday... and then I got home and pretty much went straight to bed.
I'll check it out before I head off to work today and get back to you.
Yeah... it looks like they are all there.
I've tested the files immediately, as I have a savegame before the mission. It's quite a mess because joystick is not detected and game is sluggish in Dosbox (strange, the old version worked perfectly)
Anyway, the right file seems to be "B2M3IW.TIE".
Too bad the bug is still there! The second shuttle is still missing! Are you sure you have the patched version?
-sigh-
phaolo, you'd probably be a candidate for an upgrade to the XWCS. I'm not sure there is even supposed to be a second shuttle.
XWCS?
Anyway, the mission briefing says that I have to protect 2 shuttles while they board 2 transports. The map never ends as only half of the objectives can be completed. I had the confirmation about the bug on internet.
I don't want to buy the cd version for just 1 mission.. so never mind. Thanks for the help however :)
