Re: RELEASE: 3.6.10 Media VPs
Huh. So they are. Use these, then.

Re: RELEASE: 3.6.10 Media VPs
Thanks. Also, where can I get a working launcher for this?

Re: RELEASE: 3.6.10 Media VPs
A working launcher as in a FSO Launcher? Or does the graphic not fit?

 
Re: RELEASE: 3.6.10 Media VPs
That's odd. I run fs2_open_3_6_10d.exe, but it goes straight to the game. It doesn't pop up with a launcher at all.

eliex, that's not the Launcher. This is.

ViolentAJ, you NEED the launcher to enable mods, features and set resolutions conveniently.

Re: RELEASE: 3.6.10 Media VPs
Cool, thanks.

Now I just have to figure out how to remove the FPS counter and the SDRAM etc. readout to the upper right.

Re: RELEASE: 3.6.10 Media VPs
Use a non-debug build (fs2_open_3_6_10.exe) to remove the memory statistics.
To disable the FPS counter, go to the Launcher's features tab, set list type to "Dev tools", and uncheck the "Show frames per second on HUD" mark.

Re: 3.6.10 Media VPs Discussion Thread
Two bugs so far:

1. Shivan beams are ****ed up again.
2. Shivan shields aren't "electric" anymore, like they were in the first 3.6.10 mediavps, currently they look just like they did in retail.
Who uses forum signatures anymore?

Re: 3.6.10 Media VPs Discussion Thread
How are they ****ed up? No problems on my end.
Shivan shields are no different than they've been either.

To quote Command on a JAD mission, "You must be going cur-r-r-r-r-r-a-a-a-a-zy."

Although I will ask, what's the point of the little blue "X" that appears when you start moving, just a true ship trajectory indicator?

New release? Phooey. If I had known I would have tweaked the Hornet's nosecone.

Re: 3.6.10 Media VPs Discussion Thread
The Rahu's animated glows are close to unnoticable unless you put the ship to insane zoom levels, not to mention I think it was a wasted update, since something like the Lucifer could've been given animated glows. Also the new glass maps don't seem too gold-glass friendly, the difference between how much reflection is shown is rather significant, then there's the Herc Mk. I which doesn't really seem affected at all by the new glass map. Plus, the Myrmidon gets smoothing, but the Ursa still remains without normal maps.

Check your settings.  If you created a new pilot file, it would have reverted the HUD coloring.

Interesting, had to make four new pilot files before it reverted back. Is ok now.

That irritating beam bug is still present on my crappy intel integrated.

Now where was that fix...? Was it abolish beam glows?

Re: 3.6.10 Media VPs Discussion Thread
Yeah the beam bug is still present and I don't know why but maybe because of new settings(or ???)i don't have cockpit interior textures for terran fighters.i keep a save of the previous 3.6.10 released and i got it back again.maybe it's only a texture name problem

Re: 3.6.10 Media VPs Discussion Thread
Dumb question?:

<< IMPORTANT: Known Issues

Campaign Mission "Clash of the Titans II" has 2 errors. Corrected version here: SM3-09.fs2 (Right-Click, "Save As") >>

Where do we put this file to fix the issue?
