Heh. Sadly, I did not get any windows on the screen after selecting through all of the options, DOS or otherwise.

Might I recommend though a non-dos window for the Jar-Installer? I realize for cross-code compatability for the two types of installer means that only coding one output render window would be easier, but it's not quite a polished as a java render window, which would be potentially more cross platform friendly.

I have plans for a better GUI, but RL keeps creeping in...

EDIT: I've got it all laid out on paper, I just need to find the time to code it.

[Zacam]

Heh. I know how that goes. I'm in the middle of coding 3 seperate things myself.

Looking forward to the enhancements, let me know if you want an alpha/beta tester before release, more than happy to oblige.

(I've got several computers here that all need testing in one way or another.)

Turey, you're fired. 

Yes sir, taking down Installer now...

EDIT: Done.

NeoTerran doesn't have the authority to fire you. Get back to work

Downloading those OGG movies made for the first successful viewing of FS2 cutscenes I've had with FS_Open. I can always hear them but not see them, and this has been a long running problem for me. So I wonder, now that I know how to fix it, is there anywhere I can download FS1 movies in that same OGG format?

I hate to say it but I'll bet that the problem you were experiencing was due to divx toolbar and could have been fixed pretty easily.

Oh well you have a better fix now so never mind

Nice job things seem to run together a lot smoother now but I have one question that might have an obvious answer, I hope. Right when I'm about to start a mission the game pauses itself and won't let me unpause it. I got rid of all the new options I added like missile glow and stuff like that in the features menu but it still happend. Am I forgeting something?

[Huggybaby]

It's possible your firewall wants freespace added to the exceptions. You can run FS in a window to see if you're getting a firewall error.

[BTAvatar]

nope. The second I enter a mission it pauses and if I try to unpause it the pasue comes back in in a matter of a second

i can't download the OpenAL from the website can someone send it to me?

[FUBAR-BDHR]

Don't know if this is the latest one but it's the one I am using.  http://fubar4.fubar.org/fs2netd/OpenALwEAX.exe

Taylor asked me to also mirror the OGG format movies, and I have also compiled them into a VP, you can download them either way, seporately or in the vp below. The FS1cutscenepack.vp goes in your FSPort directory and the FS2cutscenepack.vp goes in the root FS2 folder.

Cutscene VP for FS 1&2
FS1cutscenepack.vp
FS2cutscenepack.vp

You may need to edit two of the file names in this post to..

FS1OGGcutscenepack.vp
FS2OGGcutscenepack.vp

Could you please point me to where I can get latest media VP's?

i have a fairly recent computer , and all i can run is debug. the launcher crashes the moment i click on it, and debug refuses to run in hi-res (i have sparky_hi_fs2.vp), and openAL EAX. i deleted the two openALfiles like instructed...and all i can run...is still...retail and debug. any idea of whats going on? all the fixes ive got only worked for debug.

GFX card: radeon 7500
sound: on board. (no sound card)
OS: windows XP
openGL drivers: present
fs2 directory: D:\GAMES\freespace2\

[karajorma]

Run the debug build and post the first 30 and last 10 lines of the FS2_Open.log file you'll find in Freespace2\Data.

[takashi]

uh oh....i have no FS2_Open.log file in data. just players, freddocs, missions, and cache. even worse...the main interface is gone. just inveisible buttons and blackness. gameplay works fine exept media vp's are having no effect on the models, and nebula bitmaps in the backround are blurry and 8-bit.

[karajorma]

Then to be honest I have no idea what you've done wrong. Delete the whole thing and start again is my advice.

[takashi]

it works!
