Title: FS2 with enhancments
Post by: rhraziel on April 03, 2008, 10:16:06 am

I installed the FS2 SCP with Tourey's installer and it all went fine. I figured out how to use the launcher, select the mod, then select the mod from within the game. What I really want to do though is to play the original FS2 campaign with the enhancements, and not necessarily the mods. Do I just launch the game with the launcher and start the campaign like normal to take advantage of the enhancements, or is it a different process?

The graphical enhancements are the result of using the \mediavps\ folder as a mod. Other mods have mod.ini files in their folders, which makes the game engine to use the \mediavps\ folder as the mod in addition to the selected folder. So, to play the FS2 campaign with the MediaVPs, select the \mediavps\ folder as your mod. If, for some reason, you want to play the FS2 campaign without the extra graphical delight, just select No MOD.
