Please take a screenshot (press the print screen button on your keyboard. The screenshot will be in the screenshots directory. Also, please follow the steps mentioned here:

Your fs2_open.log: (possibly the most important thing ever)
fs2_open.log is a file generated by debug builds. It contains all sorts of useful information that we need in order to help you. That is why you should follow the instructions below and provide us with that file when asking for help. Creating an fs2_open.log happens like this:

• Download the recommended build (link is in the first post of this thread) if you haven't already and place the .exe files to your \freespace2\ folder.
• Switch to windowed mode (open the Launcher, open the Features tab, select Dev Tools from the pulldown menu and tick on "Run in window").
• Select the debug build (fs2_open_3_6_10d.exe) and run it. If you've been experiencing crashes, do exactly what you've done previously, up until it crashes.
  
  If you have had other issues, it is sufficient to run it until you get to the Main Hall. If the debug build crashes fatally even before getting to the Main Hall, no worries.
• Quit the game.
• Find fs2_open.log from \freespace2\data\, copy it to a safe location and deliver it to us by using one of the following means:
  
  • include it to your post as an attachment (click Additional Options when posting)
  • include it to your post using the "code" tags
  • send it to pastebin and provide us with the link to it

That's a warning, not an error. You can skip it by clicking "No". Anyways,

Well, those errors don't seem to be connected to the issue at hand; they are errors that the mod creators should fix.

[Jeff Vader]

You're missing the patch for the MediaVPs. It is available from the MediaVPs release thread, step 6.

[ShadowGorrath]

Don't use the debug build and it works fine.

[The E]

Don't use the debug build and it works fine.

Except that he was told to, in order to see if there's something going wrong on his end.
If your mod does not work with a debug build, it's YOUR duty to fix it, or tell people that you're not going to.

There are several issues reported in this thread, will there be a patch to address them? Or will you leave the mod in its current, somewhat broken state?

[Droid803]

That should really be my job to fix it, though I am completely unable to do that at this point.

still presists after i put the 3.6.10 patch.

Do you mean the awful reflections on the cockpit glass? You can disable those by removing the cockpit VP from your Dawn of Sol mod directory.

Or if you want to keep the cockpits, you can turn off environment mapping in the launcher.

[Droid803]

It's a "bug" with 3.6.10 and up builds (it was not present during 3.6.9, on which DoS started development). Glass gets rendered on both sides along with reflections, which is why I added the option to remove cockpits.

thank you averyojne who helped it's now works fine ...
the envirment of earth is really beutifull.

Some models gimme real fps downpressor counter. I Think that this project should focus more on optimalization instead make a new gfx features (SCP)
No,really if my rig runs crysis or gta4 ~30 fps and this campaign on mission with devastator runs like 3fps this is something wrong i think.
And the most funny thing is that fighters strafeing raynor eat the most of my rig powerz
 

[General Battuta]

It's not an SCP problem, it's a problem with Steve-O's fighters themselves. They use a ton of textures.

[Colonol Dekker]

My packard bell ipower 8620, stock configuration runs this fine. But crysis not so well. 25-30 fps according to fraps. On medium settings minus aa.

[Droid803]

Yeah, it's Steve-O's fighters.
When BP:WiH comes out with the optimized versions (if it does), I'll incorporate them into a patch or something.

[Colonol Dekker]

I can run steve-o's fine.
 
Crysis not so fine. How odd is that. . . .

[utops]

Hm.. maybe my Ati 4890 gfx have some issues with OpenGl i just realise that even stock + mediavps lags sometimes 
or week cpu athlon64 dual 3600 makes buttleneck ... nvm im from Amiga times, low fps is just what i rise on hehe
