Forgotten Enemies for 1.3.6.5 BETA

Uploaded a new installer for the BETA version of FE13. The previous version got mangled due to too many updates, etc.

It fixes some bugs - but not all.

i focused on cfg's and the Singleplayer missions this time.

probably the most notable change will be Cloak of Deception, where the pipe sizes are corrected and the builder builds all of the comm bunkers (even some missing ones). the mission where you need to blow a hole in the crater wall has been updated so you can blow a hole in the wall now. the dll scriptor has some issues i'm trying to work around (like returning -1 for the countdown timer, so i had to hack it.

This installer will delete any previous install, so be sure to save them off if you want.

Known issues:
1. login screen needs work due to recent .cfg changes in patches, but at least you can use it now.
2. the first mercury mission fails about 5 seconds in due to having a null dome and recent patch changes.
3. the Rock IA variety map crashes during load; might be a dome problem, too.
4. haven't worked on MPI
5. there may be some AIP warnings popping up. let me know if you see any.

Are you a bit ahead of time or mistaken the version of the current PB? :)

For what is the Arrival Fix? The mercury mission? Just to clarify this is not backward compatible is it?

Arrival is the second mission; had the map pointing to a test .dll.

you can play it on the current public beta; just named it this way to save effort later.

I have a resolution issue, everything seems so compact. It's still misplaced

Ok so I don't know if anyone else is having the same issue as me but the screen that displays on my pc seems a little big, some of the selection is off screen. The gameplay itself is perfectly fine it's just the menu. I run at 1366x768 Resolution.

A lot of cutscenes in mods that use BS-er's scriptor have that kind of problem, you might have to wait for the scripts to be converted to C++.

Interestingly, the original scripts have some terribly poor practice in them.

The FE scripts have poor practice?

Pfft, that's heresy.

Well, mercedf.dll uses pre-placed navs to spawn objects from and fails the player instantly (with a rather rude message about MPI noobs) if the Triton gets damaged.

Oh, you're talking about the mission scripts. I thought you were talking about the story scripts.

Ah, no. FE is narratively sound. The only problems I have on that front are when people try to retcon it or start getting choosy :P
