Hi.  So I was trying to play Silent Threat: Reborn after seeing how disappointing the original Silent Threat was... and when I started (after the intro), I received a warning that there were 68 errors found.  I tried anyway, and the first mission went well enough... but as soon as it started trying to load mission 2, it crashed.  In retail mode, it said something about a Rockeye file.

I made sure that I have the most recent version, and it was installed using Turey's Installer (full install).  FSPort and ST worked just fine on this install (and still do)... Has anyone else run into this with the current version of ST-R?

I ran it in debug mode, and this was thrown:

ERANGE: String error. Please Report.

What's the full file path of your STR folder?

[PhantomOfTime]

Q:\Games\FreeSpace2\fsport-str

It's the spot it was installed in by the installer... should it not be?

[General Battuta]

Huh, no, that looks good. It should not be throwing a string error.

Okay, next step! Please post the fs2_open.log file from FreeSpace2\data\ so we can spot the problem.

[PhantomOfTime]

Since I figure posting the wall of text contained in the file might not be appreciated too much, here's the file itself, attached to this post.  If that doesn't work, I'll go with the wall of text approach.

All right, couple things.

Try renaming your STReb folder to fsport_str. As a rule, never alter folder names.

[PhantomOfTime]

Well, that did it!

Also,  the renamed folder was a second install (so as to not overwrite the first), which I did because the first wasn't working.  By default, it's named fsport-str, instead of fsport_str.  At least I know I can remove the second install now.

Thanks for the help!

[General Battuta]

Cool!

Let us know if there's any more trouble.

Yes.  Any time you see a fsport- prefix on an FSPort-produced mod, it must use a hyphen, never an underscore.

Unfortunately I still got 62 warnings/errors on startup. My debug log is below. I saw from another thread just below that silent threat can't use the 3.6.12 mediavps so I downloaded the 3.6.10 mediavps and created a mediavps folder. My ini folder for fsport-str reads:

[multimod]
primarylist = fsport-mediavps;
secondarylist = fsport,mediavps;

I still get the warnings, but I don't get the rockeye crash on the second mission. What should I do to eliminate the rest of the warnings? Can Silent Threat use 3.6.12 mediavps? My debug output is below:

Looks like you're trying to use 3.6.12 FSPort with 3.6.10 VPs. This will not work, you also need to get an old version of FSPort.
Rather inconvinent, I never supported the idea of dropping backwards compatiblity in 3.6.12 VPs.

ugh ... the other thread (two below) I thought they said it was backward compatible ... apparently not. 

[Dragon]

If it was, ST:R would be working with the new VPs.

[crazy_dave]

If it was, ST:R would be working with the new VPs.

Yeah out of curiosity to see if it would work, I had just changed the mod.ini file to link to mediavps_3612 instead of mediavps and the errors disappeared. I was about to write of this when you posted. Thanks! I should've just tried that start with instead of downloading 3.6.10 mediavps and creating a new folder. Ah silly me.

[Goober5000]

Here's the thing: FSPort is backward-compatible, but because the 3.6.12 does many things differently, there are some problems.  The armor is one, since armor is introduced by the mediavps and not used in either FSPort or ST:R.  An upcoming FSPort release will add patches to take care of these problems.

In the meantime, those 62 errors should not show up if you're running a release build, so you should be able to just ignore them for now.

[Dragon]

Newer builds do notify about amount of errors generated by FS2_Open, even though they don't list all of them.

[BirdofPrey]

I had ST:R throwing errors when I tried to do the second mission, so I checked my command line flags, and found something

Code: [Select]

-mod fsport-mediavps,fsport-str,fsport,mediavpsThe installer put the mediavps in the folder ../MediaVPs_3612/, so there appears to be a discrepancy in where ST:R is looking for the mediavps and where they actually are.  After copying the mediavps folder (just in case) and renaming it to ../mediavps/ the problem seems to be fixed.

So just a heads up.  Note: I am using the launcher that installed with FSO (wanted to use wxLauncher, but it keeps telling me FSO didn't generate a flag file, but that's a different topic entirely).

Just make sure you have a folder named mediavps_3612 containing the 3.6.12 MVPs or you won't be able to play a bunch of more recent campaigns - it MUST have that name.

[BirdofPrey]

The original folder is still intact.  I just made a copy with a different name.
Still, somethings up when people have to rename things.  It would seem ST:R isn't being pointed to the proper location for the latest media VPs (for some of us at least); it can't find the files, so it throws errors.

[mjn.mixael]

ST:R Doesn't officially support mediavps_3612 yet. It is actually looking for the 3.6.10 mediavps of which the folder was just named 'mediavps'.

Now, with that said, I don't think there are any issues to running ST:R with 3.6.12.
