Freespace Port 3.7 + FSPort Media VPs Release
Version 3.7 has been released! This is less of a major upgrade than 3.6, so I kept the same thread, but it still brings a few significant changes. Here is the changelog from the readme:
Updates in 3.7.0:
--Fix MediaVP compatibility by syncing FSPort MediaVP versions
--Update the French translation, thanks to Achille
--Attempt to fix UTF-8 compatibility
--Update the traitor.tbl debriefing text for the Vasudan persona
--Update game_settings.tbl version-specific commenting
--Use distance-ship-subsystem for the "enter the docking bay" directive in Playing Judas
--Don't automatically target turrets when targeting a ship (use FSO flag to restore FS1 behavior)
Original version 3.6 post below:
We are pleased to present version 3.6 of the FreeSpace Port, and perhaps more importantly, the long-awaited version 4.3 of the FreeSpace Port MediaVPs!
Features include:
- Full compatibility with the MediaVPs 4.3.x series, taking advantage of the reorganization that brings all models and textures under one roof
- Full support for MjnMixael's APNG command briefing animations, remastered cutscenes, and enhanced main halls
- The FSP-MVP music package now includes high-quality music tracks from the original source files (except for a few tracks not included in the 2006 music dump)
- The remastered music is still available, but it is now under the remix package
- NuSSLBeam with effects created by Nyctaeus
- Dozens of reskins for the GTFr Chronos and TAC 1, sourced from an old Galemp model dump, including Bosch Beer, Minute Maid Orange Juice, GTI, radioactive warning, Australia, and more
- Miscellaneous bugfixes
As always FSPort remains retail compatible but optimized for Freespace Open. If you use FSO, we recommend a recent build such as 19.0 or later.
To install, use the FreeSpace Open Installer (http://www.fsoinstaller.com/) or

Updates for the various campaigns on Knossos that use FSPort and the FSPort MVPs will be rolled out over the next few days.
