Title: HELP. Possible tbm bug. (New media vps testing)
Post by: ARSPR on January 15, 2007, 02:46:04 pm

Please, SCP team, take a look to this Mantised report (http://scp.indiegames.us/mantis/view.php?id=1220).  :mad:

I don't know what happens and I need it solved to continue testing DaBrain's new Media Vps compilation.

Thanks in advance  :yes:

You didn't install the MediaVPs properly. I'm not sure who told you to get rid of your sparky_fs2 VP, but they were wrong to do so. Policy for the MediaVPs has always been to leave the retail VPs intact.

He's making sure that he doesn't see any of the effects from the retail stuff.

However, there's probably some .tbl files in there that you need. Not sure, don't have VPView on this machine.

However, that isn't how the MediaVPs are supposed to be used, so it's not like the error needs to be fixed by the next release, and it's not really a bug.

The way that modular tables work, they attempt to load each file as it appears in a table. Since newglo9 will appear in root_fs2.vp, Freespace 2 will attempt to load it. It will not be found, so Freespace2 displays the warning.
