Greetings:
I finished mission 5, and then was sent to a desolate place with a starter patch of ores and nothing else. No Mission 6. 8(
I followed the instructions in the video, but did not get a victory when the spaceship was destroyed. I did nothing else, just marched right over and blasted it.
So I deleted the mod, disabled the other mods and re-installed the mission pack. I tried a fresh Mission 5 run and blew up the spaceship again, but again, no victory. I also went to the end of the prior run of Mission 5 and tried finishing it again with the freshly reinstalled Story-Missions_2.3.5 (deleted and re-fetched from the in-game mod portal), but it too sent me to a new starter scenario when I completed it..
I even went as far as shutting down the game and starting it all over again, so that the old mods were not even loaded. The cheat to get through Chapter 5 still doesn't work. I blow up the space ship (while the laser turrets are being blasted by the gun turrets), so none of the achievements have been accomplished yet. Since that didn't work, I went back to the original save for Mission 5 (just before completing the mission). I loaded it without synching the mods, but still get sent to a new starter-world when I finish the mission.
NOTE: In both cases, there is a very long list of "mitigated content" which includes the mods I turned off (and I checked, they're still off). Not sure if that helps, but I thought it might be useful.
Also, the scenario pack when I start the game does not show Mission 6, but Missions 1-5 do show up. What am I missing?
Oh, and thanks for a tremendous mod! I forgot how challenging a vanilla game can be.
Update:
I removed all the mods (cleaned out the mod folder) and ran again with only Story-Missions_2.3.5, but still had the same results. Restarted the game again to clear all of the "mitigated content" warnings. I even went ahead and ran north to de-power the laser that kills a turret at about 20 seconds in (preventing any turrets from being destroyed prior to me destroying the space ship). Still no victory when I blow up the space ship.
I tried to reload the old save of Mission 5, from the last moments before victory, and save it (so that it has zero mods). I shut down the game and restart it, and run the non-mod game to completion. I get the victory screen (and no "mitigated content" warning), but still get sent to a new planet to start a vanilla game. Still no Mission 6 (which shows up as a ghost (unselectable) in the StoryMissions start screen).
