Not much of a troubleshooter myself, but I'm guessing you should paste a screenshot of your FS2 folder and then run the debug build for FSO and after it crashes attach FS2_Open.log, which is in your Freespace\Data folder IIRC. Then the real troubleshooters could help pinpoint the problem.
-
Yep, what Sololop said is correct. Run a build with a -d until it crashes, post the log.
Your video card may not be powerful enough for the MediaVPs. Are there any other games you run?
-
Betting on corrupt MediaVPs. Redownloading them manually from the release thread (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,58230.0.html) should help if that's the case.
In any case, run the debug build and post your fs2_open.log. And make sure your graphics drivers are up to date.

Lobo thank you for everything you are grate man
Now i do something on my will.
1. i remove " MV_assets " FROM FOLDER --MEDIAVPS------ and game now load.
After that when i again turn back "MV assets" game NO LOAD.
I don't know what is problem.
2. But just one problem i have when i load MEDIAVPS----WHEN I TARGETING SHIPS IN RED then in the screen have red-green blue lines(but full lines about 5-6 sm. ) and then i don't see the target.
if you know tell me what i doing.
now i lookong for update VIA CHROME my graphics card.
thank you

Do you have MV_Complete and the MV_assets in the folder? If you downloaded MV_Complete then you should only have it and MV_Music. If you downloaded the files individually then it's possible MV_assets is still corrupt.

hey
i downloaded all files from OPEN INSTALER TYRAAY and i downloading everything about 4 gb.
and my folder media vps contains:
-folder DATA------------------------------- 82 bytes
-fsumvp bitmap------------------------85 kb
-mod configuration settings-------1kb
-mv advanced--------------------507.553 kb
-mv assets--------------------449.005 kb
-mv core--------------------10.950kb
-mv effects---------------368.051kb
-mv music-----------11.827kb
-readme----------11kb
-settings------1 kb
that ;s all
-
Ok, but the real question is whether or not it works.
Therefore: does it work? :P
-
The recent problems seem to be with the mv_assets downloaded via the installer. A manual redownload of that file should fix it. Do not use the installer to redownload it.
-
ok guys
I'll try redownload it " mv assets " MANUAL.
Just one big question:
whEn i play FS2 on all my screen appear bold lane green -red-blue lines seem like LASER IN THE DISCO CLUB.
I update my graphics card driver but nothing change.
see you
thanks
-
A screenshot would be cool: press Print Screen (may also be written as Prt Sc on your keyboard) while playing. The game automatically saves the screenshots to \freespace2\screenshots\ .
Most likely it is because of that "graphics card". And the only real solution is to get new hardware.

Does it look anything like this?

If it looks like this, you need to do the following:
Anyone experiencing graphical problems with the Shivan beams (typically people with ATI cards), please download these 16x512 resolution textures (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?yqq5mjmtlzl) and paste the three files (SBeamAB, SBeamAD and SBeamAE) into "\FreeSpace2\mediavps\data\effects". If that folder doesn't exist, create it.

lobo

Via Chrome 9hc igp. A "graphics card". As in, it can produce graphics on a display, if necessary. When all hope has been lost.
-
yes HERA
Just like this

The beam textures are not good for your graphics card.
This is how you fix it:
1. Create a directory to ..\FreeSpace2\mediavps\data\effects\
2. Download this (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?yqq5mjmtlzl)
3. Copy the files from the download into ..\FreeSpace2\mediavps\data\effects\.
That will hopefully help.

7zip files are archives, like zip or rar.
You need to open the .7z file and extract the .DDS files from inside it.
To do this you will need to install this (http://www.7zip.com/) first, after that you will be able to open the .7z archive.
-
herra
yes bro i do that.
did you mean that i put filles in EFFECTS FOLDER IN "ZIP" FORMAT
no herra
i understand you wery well
i unzip filles and after that i do like you told me.
thanks
-

He meant that you must unpack the .7z file and put the .dds files to \freespace2\mediavps\data\effects\ . Which you probably did.
If it doesn't help, it would seem that the MediaVPs are just too much for your "graphics card". You listed S3 Graphics Co, Ltd as the chipset manifacturer and I haven't met a single person who didn't have problems with the MediaVPs and a graphics card made by S3.

Why i may play BIG game like GTA SAN ANDREAS (5GB) and NEED FOR SPEED ,but i can't FREESPACE 2.
And why my problems with screen only in MEDIA VPS but NO in other mods like FSPORT,FSPORTMEDIAVPS,cardinal,stl..........
Maybe because my graphics card is integrated in my motherboard
ok thank you at least i can play game,maybe in the future i buy good graphics card and no in motherboard but individually.

The size a game takes on your hard disk drive has nothing to do with whether or not your system can run it; it's all about whether or not your system can handle everything in the game media.
In the case of MediaVP's it seems that your graphics card is unable to handle some of the data in the MediaVP's. Of specific reasons to this I have no idea. :blah:

Copy your entire \freespace2\ directory to a USB stick, an external hard drive or a DVD. After reinstalling XP (and all drivers), copy the \freespace2\ directory back to your computer. That's it. Launcher.exe will create all the necessary registry entries when you run it for the first time.
And naturally you must remember to install OpenAL.

Thanks LOBO
i already do this
if anything go wrong you 'll be here.
thanks for everything Lobo :yes: :yes: :yes:
