Hey guys,
Just picked up Freespace 2 from GoG and I've got it up and running with FSO 3.8. One thing I can't get working, though, is the ship silhouettes on radar. With both the default 2D and the 3D radar, all I get are the dots. There is an MV_RadarIcons.vp file located in both the \mediavps_3612 and \MediaVPs_2014 folders. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game (and wiped the main install folder) but that hasn't fixed it. I've attached my log file. Any idea why the silhouettes aren't showing?
I was also wondering, should I be using the AVX or SSE2 executable? I'm running a core i7 - if I understand correctly, AVX is the newer set of instructions where SSE2 is for older CPUs. Do I have that right?
And a quick check on textures. I saw a YT video with FSO 3.7.4, I think it was, where the textures for some ships looked very different from what I'm seeing in 3.8. For example, the Hatshepsut looks like the attached image. Are these the right textures?
Thanks for your help!
