Re: MediaVP 3.6.7 RELEASE thread
You hit the nail on the head. That exactly how you do it.

That's how most people do it.

The people who understand FS2 a bit better put them in a folder and use mod.ini files so that they don't interfere with retail or Tom's Old Build :p

I'll be writing a full guide on doing that sometime soon. :)

Re: MediaVP 3.6.7 RELEASE thread
There are other reasons besides those for doing it my way :) If you play multiplayer for instance. Or if you work for a mod that won't be using them (BSG, TBP, etc) and don't want to bother with the hassle of setting up a seperate folder for them.

For some people none of those are important but better to assume that they might be rather than assuming they won't be and then having to explain to someone why they're getting an "Error parsing 'weapons.tbl' Error code = 2" error a few days later :)

I'll probably end up changing my setup eventually. I just need to find one of those round tuits...

Re: MediaVP 3.6.7 RELEASE thread
Whenever I get around to finishing the last minor feature thingy for the mediaVPs, as well as updating them to make use of it.

I should probably go through mv_effects again as well. And of course I need to check the patch thread for stuff I missed.

Altogether, it's probably going to be a good half-day of work. I'm busy most of tomorrow and have finals next week.
