First off this new mediavps are awesome. Although I'm also experiencing the problem with the Shivan beams. I am using the advanced effects. I thought this didn't happen when they were in use but I guess I was wrong.
Specs are:
Pentium 4 2.6GHZ with Hyper Threading
Ge Force 5200 FX(latest drivers)(not overclocked)
512 MB of RAM
Aurora Paradox
That's interesting, because it might mean that there's something table-related in the Shivan beams that makes them fail instead of it being simply a texture issue... Could you post screenshot and a debug log about the issue?
Also, using the advanced VP might be a bit ambitious for that kind of hardware.

occurs when I try to load Training-2, I don't really know what this error is, so I havn't tried anything
Are you using a recommended build? That line shouldn't trigger any error if you are. It looks like an error that could happen when an older build doesn't fails at parsing the mission due to unexpected entry. I played that mission through without errors, too. Goober's comment seems to point in that direction as well, and I would be inclined to believe he knows what he's talking about... The latest 3.6.10 build would be
Nightly r4989.
also I also noticed the HTL Zephyrus wasn't included, it's a great model/map job
No, it's not really a great model. It looks good but it uses so many maps that it's a huge performance hog and it probably had more issues than have been reported in this thread yet, so despite valiant attempts at getting it into these VP's we were forced to drop it. It just didn't match the quality criteria, and fixing it properly was more than our resident modeling maestros had resources to do. Ask Vasudan Admiral more details about this if you want to know exactly why the model wasn't included in the final VP's, but rest assured it was a conscious choice, no matter how good the HTL Zephyrus looks (which I agree, it is a cool looking model but unfortunately that's not everything a model needs to be a good model...).
