Yes, you are. As the release post states

Make sure that you're using the builds provided in the download. 3.6.14 or 3.6.15 builds WILL NOT WORK. You have been warned.

[crizza]

Uh, so I gues you mean talking about the executable with the (BP) in its name, but then it tells me something about antipodes not working anymore.
Do you want another log?
Edit: This is odd, running the debug version the game starts fine, using the normal version it crashes on start.

-reparse_mainhall
This flag. Why do you have it on?

When the hell did I turn that thing on? Strange...
Anyway unticking it resolves the problem, so thanks!

Please post a log.

[crizza]

Ok, starting the first mission, the game crashed in debug mode and while loading it showed errors about a corvette and the bellerophon.
Heres the log:

That can't be right. Are you quite sure you have the correct drivers for your card installed?

Regarding the Bellerophon model, please use this one instead:

Interesting. Does your computer use GPU switching by any chance?

I had a similar problem when I first tried to run the 3.6.17_BP executable. The standard one would not start at all, whereas the debug version would start FS2 and load the mainhall, but would crash upon loading a mission. The problem was resolved after I told my graphics driver utility to run the standard executable with my graphics card rather than with my motherboard's integrated graphics chip.

With all previous Windows builds of FS2 open, I can run executables with the internal chip, albeit with low in-mission performance.

[The E]

Given that even the supposedly working debug build shows that the GPU drivers are severely out of date, I doubt it.

[crizza]

Uh, using the "devicemanager", my system told my radeon is using the latest driver...but then again, something can't possibly be right...

[Crybertrance]

On a side note, the Bellerophon doesn't appear to have the glowpoint lights defined in the .pof (or table? which are we using now anyway?)

[The E]

That's because the device manager only checks whether you have the latest drivers stored in Windows Update installed. Those are not, I repeat NOT updated with any regularity, and are only there to provide basic functionality. What you need to do is go to the AMD site, and get the actual drivers as published by AMD.

On a side note, the Bellerophon doesn't appear to have the glowpoint lights defined in the .pof (or table? which are we using now anyway?)

The tbl ones. And that's just Matthegeek's fault for being away during the release push They'll be added later.

[crizza]

Yeah, the driver I used was from 2009, now I installed one from december 2012, the Bellerophon is in bp/data/models...restarting the game.

Something is still not working as intended.

Something is wrong with the 7z package.
Have downloaded the non-executable archive (for Linux/MacOS) from FSMods, and getting the files and folder structure but all zero kb files.

Still having this issue Echelon?

[starbug]

Love the new effects and the sexy new models but i seem to be having a small problem, played through AOA fine, but when i try and play WIH in the first mission, my framerate drops to 10 when ships start firing. but when nothing is going, ie no combat my fps go back to 60. I am not using the adv visuals vp because at first i thought that was the problem so i removed it but i still have the same problem.

I have the latest drivers for my radeon HD 6670 and can run games like skyrim, ME 3, borderlands 2 etc with everything turned to full without any fps drops.

this is my comp spec
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600 CPU @ 3.40GHz (8 CPUs), ~3.4GHz
8192MB RAM
radeon HD 6670
2 terabyte harddisk

[General Battuta]

Set -shadow_quality 0 and disable vsync, should fix it

[crizza]

I still have problems, any idea?

[Luis Dias]

The graphics card isn't top seed, but shouldn't go down like that. I will try to reproduce this effect with my 6850 later this day.

[The E]

The same problems? Or other ones? The log shows only a warning (and you know you can click through those, right?).

[starbug]

Cheers, battuta what a difference that has made, fps has jumped up to 125! cheers
