i use fs2_open button to launch the game.... if i do not and use the fs2 launcher it says flag file nto found! "it appears that the application you have selected is not valid, the flag file that it produces in order to make the UI and other things cannot be found" if i then click okay. an fs_2 open launcher comes up and then if i click launch it will launch the game. 

where do i add -mod mediavps ?  i found the folder and it has stuff in it.


EDIT: i changed where the launcher is pointing to the application and then i launched the launcher again and it seems that flag thing went away.

Under the "Features" tab, if the Mac launcher is remotely similar to the Windoze one. Simply look for the "Custom Flags" box, or something like it, and add that flag.

i engaged medavps in the launcher and that seems to have fixed the problem

Thank you!

it took me awhile to find it cause the mac launer is a little different than the windows one i believe.

Thanks so much.

I dunno, what should we charge this guy, Lobo?

[Jeff Vader]

Hmm. The Mac logo alone usually adds at least $200 to the price.

[malikk]

haha, that pains me deep.

[colecampbell666]

So make that 200+ the 150 flat rate, add fees, taxes and more fees, make it 783.87$.

I'll get right on that :-p

Check your FS2 directory for a folder called 'mediavps.' Also check your launcher's MOD settings and see if 'MediaVPs' are selected.

Make sure you're running the game using the launcher instead of by clicking on an FS2 executable, and, if you're using a 3.6.9 build, make sure jpg/tga textures are enabled in the launcher.

Do keep in mind that he's on a Mac.

Dude, I play on a Mac. It's the same.

I'm glad the launcher suggestion helped, malikk!

well,
I guess i just wasn't paying attention.  Apologies.
