Hope this is just a minor issue, but it seems when using the new 3.6.16 build with the FSPort MediaVPs or the STR MediaVPs and trying to load the image of the Typhon in the Tech Room, FreeSpace will lock up. If I load 3.6.16 with MediaVPs_3612 the Typhon loads fine in the Tech Room. This isn't the IBX file load issue - I gave the program ample time to draw out the cache file (up to an hour) which wasn't necessary when I was using 3.6.14 on my Sandy Bridge platform (using 3.6.14 the Typhon would take seconds to render).
Tried the same with the Debug EXE and was thrown to the desktop when loading the Typhon in the Tech Room. Found this in the LOG file:

Also got these errors loading the Karnak model but didn't crash 3.6.16 DEBUG to the desktop:

There are a few other errors in the LOG (attached) which may or may not be causing this issue.
Here's what I've tried so far:
1) Created fresh pilot files with 3.6.16 (no go)
2) Used 3.6.16 with the non-MediaVP FSPort (which worked)
3) Used 3.6.14 with FSPort MediaVPs (which worked)
Any other suggestions?

Try using this new pof+ibx file for the Typhon:

My apologies for not using the search feature more thoroughly. Yes, that model worked (and was able to draw out its own IBX file in the Tech Room). Is it just a low-res Typhon model or the same model as 3.6.14 tweaked to work with 3.6.16?

Sorry, I really don't know what's changed in the new model. I just remembered seeing the other support thread and the solution :)
-
It turns out it's same version as the one in the Typhon patch (in the FSPort release thread, look for the yellow text in the first bullet list).

Considering the errors posted above, do yo think there may be a problem with the Karnak model also? Even though the model shows in the Tech Room, it is producing errors. Maybe it will cause a problem with STR during the mission that includes the Karnak?
EDIT: Seems after looking through the error log I posted, there are quite a few errors on startup, including a few table errors.
