I think somebody ****ed up something in the installer, big time.

Go into your FreeSpace 2 directory, delete the file called 3.6.13update.vp. Does it work now?

I fixed it, it didn't work because I hadn't Enabled MediaVPs 3.6.12

You should not have to enable MediaVPs 3.6.12 for the game to work. Something's...very wrong here.

Just for the sake of experimentation, could you try moving that VP out of your root directory (just stick it in a subfolder for now), disabling mediavps (hit 'no mod'), and seeing if it runs?

Yeah, works fine when I do that.

Okay. Place that file into your mediavps_3612 folder now. I'm going to get this fixed on the installer side.

Sorry about the trouble.

That somebody was, no surprise, me.

My bad. It should be all fixed now if somebody feels like trying again.

Please note that it is looking to have a MediaVPs_3612 folder to go into.

Now that we've figured that out, is there a thread on here that'd help me out with defining buttons on the 360 pad to use with this game?

It's a bit annoying having to use the keyboard for throttle control, i can't seem to enable the flipper buttons at the back for this.

I believe there are problems with binding all the 360 controller buttons to functions because many of them are treated as axes and the two 360 thumbsticks use up all of FS2's axis allocation.

If it's worth anything, you can play just fine on keyboard only assuming you have a dpad, but I believe many people here have good 360 setups.

Thanks for that. Greatly appreciated.  :yes:
