This section will get you playing Descent: FreeSpace quickly.
Launching
The first thing you’ll see when you run Descent: FreeSpace is the Launcher
program. The Launcher allows you to change hardware options, among other
things.
2
The Great War
If you have a 3D hardware accelerator, click the “Setup” button. Under the
Video tab, click the “Detect Available Cards” button. The drop-down list will
now contain your rendering options. Choose the one corresponding to your 3D
accelerator and press or click the “Ok” button.
On the Descent: FreeSpace Launcher menu, click the “Play FreeSpace,” button
and the game will start.
Creating a Pilot
The first screen you’ll see is the Pilot Selection screen. Since this is the first
time Descent: FreeSpace has been played, you will start by being prompted for
your pilot’s Callsign. This is the nickname of your pilot. When you have typed
in your pilot’s Callsign, press
Return
and click the “Select” button.
NOTE:
If this is the first pilot you are creating, you will
automatically be taken to the main hall after pressing return.
Once in the game, you may also manage your pilots from the Barracks room.
