TIE Fighter

For missions WITH OUT a BATTLE1.LFD file included.

All versions of Tie Fighter will use this same method.

Goto where you in stalled your copy of Tie Fighter, and navigate to the mission folder. Rename B1M1FM.TIE to B1M1FM.ORG. This will save the origional mission so you can fly it again later. You just have to rename it back to B1M1FM.TIE.

To install a custom mission, download the mission you wish to fly and rename it as B1M1FM.TIE and place it in your Mission folder. Now you can create a new pilot file and fly the first mission in the first tour of duty. This will now allow you to play the new custom mission.

For mission WITH a custom BATTLE1.LFD file included

If your custom mission has a BATTLE1.LFD File included, follow the instructions below.

Navigate to where you installed TIE Fighter, and select the RESCOURCE folder. There find and rename BATTLE1.LFD to BATTLE1.ORG. Copy the new custom BATTLE1>LFD into this folder

The new custom mission will have a different filename (eg. R2F905.tie). DO NOT RENAME IT. Leave it as is and copy that file into your MISSION folder.

After you complete those steps, start the game and create a new pilot and play the first mission of the first tour of duty in game, there you begin the custom mission.

If you have any problems with getting the custom missions running (it's not very hard), please email the Trainning Officer at:
