Hello.
I have the same problem with gunfire.
Any way to fix this problem?

PS
I Downloaded and placed that files in BP folder.
All i received is just a hunging game when i tried to start a mission/

[Jeff Vader]

Download FSO 3.6.10 RC2 (link in my signature).
Extract the .exe files to your \freespace2\ folder.
Use the Launcher to select fs2_open_3_6_10_RC2_debug.exe as the used build.
Run the game as far as you can or until you get to the main hall. Quit.
There is now a file called fs2_open.log in your \freespace2\data\ folder. Post it here.

[Skywalker]

Here.

Just after the finish of loadscreen i found the message on screen/

Warning: For 'bomb_flare', 3 of 4 LODs are missing!

Hmm. The .vp files seem intact. However, the -img2dds flag (or Compress non-compressed images) is a rather troublesome flag, since it reduces texture quality and can also cause peculiar errors. Tick it off and try again.

Are you using the 3.6.10 exe and mediavps?

You'd be better off with the 3.6.10 version of the campaign, since not only will it solve your invisible weapons problem but will lessen the amount of debug warnings you get.

[Skywalker]

Done...
No changes.

PS I installed the game as it was said in the nooby Installation gide.
The Blue Planet was downloaded during the installation.

[Dilmah G]

Wait, what? You downloaded it initially with Turey's installer?

[Skywalker]

Yes.

The same problem with a Derelict Mod
Just hanging when I try to start the mission (just after breefing) or to choose a fighter.

[Dilmah G]

And you downloaded the 3.6.10 version and placed it in games/freespace2/blueplanet didn't you?

[Jeff Vader]

System specs?

Also, I didn't notice the word "mission" before, so run the debug build again and try to load a mission. Post the new fs2_open.log after that.

[Skywalker]

And you downloaded the 3.6.10 version and placed it in games/freespace2/blueplanet didn't you?

Not yet.
I am downloading the mod from your link just now

4 minutes more

System specs?

Intel pentium D (2x2.8)
1024 mb DDR2
340 Gb HDD
512mb Video
WinXp SP3.

Looks like the problem is anywhere.
Tried to launch the Awakening - the same hanging.

Are you absolutely sure that the game hangs? The MediaVPs (especially MV_Complete since it contains even the advanced stuff) can be a strain. Generating the cache files for the models in particular can take significant amount of time, depending on hardware. Once the cache files have been generated, however, things willl be faster. I'd recommend you to try loading a mission and waiting for it for several minutes. If after that you're still sure that it just hangs, we'll figure out something else.

[Skywalker]

Are you absolutely sure that the game hangs?

What else can it be???
A "Screenshot" of the last picture that was in game before the hanging, music, no responce from the control.

f after that you're still sure that it just hangs, we'll figure out something else.

Today there was a "Screenshot" of the loading indicator (mission loading) 100% loaded I went out of room for 5 -7 minutes - no changinges at all when i returned home.

PS
I have Babylon 5 at full quality without any such problems.

It could be what I just explained after that sentence.

You seem to be using the word "screenshot" in some new meaning, but I think I got the idea.

Try running the game in windowed mode (it is in the Dev Tool list under the Features tab in the Launcher) to see if something happens in Windows while you're trying to play.

Also, hang on for a moment. I'll try to split and move this to the support board, since this no longer concerns just Blue Planet.

[Skywalker]

Tried to launch the FS2 original campaign - received message about missing ship models.

Treid to launch Blue Planet in window mode - same problem.
No unusual signals from Windows.
Looked into the task Manager - 2 "Free Space 2" (not responding) an 1 FS2 (normal).

[Dilmah G]

Disabling your anti-virus can increase load times depending on how it likes larger files (found this with BtRL).

[Skywalker]

launched FS2 campaign with MediaVPs.
Launched perfectly. without any problem

[Dilmah G]

Hmm, I'm thinking corrupted MVPs, but you downloaded MV_complete didn't you? Not the one using Turey's installer.
