Hi,
Yeah, first post is an issue -_-.
I'm having graphical issues running MediaVPs 3.6.12 with FSO 3.6.18, which seems to be lighting related. I've attached a pic to better show the issue I'm getting, but in a nutshell it seems that I'm getting texture issues when some sort of dynamic lighting is applied? The light source from the pic is from the warp in, but I have had it noticeable from beams (ugh... first mission of Dimensional eclipse I can't see any ships because they all became invisible with all the beam fire), as well as primary fire close enough to influence lighting on the ship. The log file posted is running 1st non-training mission in MediaVPs 3.6.12 (file generated at same runthrough as the pic in question).
Now the confusing bit. Just for the hell of it, I tried running 3.6.17 that came with BP on Dimensional Eclipse and there were no problems (at least with the 1st mission).... in fact, the entire BP:WiH campaign playthough I did last week was perfectly fine. This somewhat leads me to not thinking it's a driver issue.... any advice?
Thanks in advance? x.x

Found root pack 'D:\Games\Freespace2\Root_fs2.vp' with a checksum of 0x747372cc
First of all, you need to update your FS2 installation to 1.2. Either use the official updater (http://web.archive.org/web/20070312031237/http://www.pxo.net/files/fs21x-12.exe) (especially if you sometimes use the retail EXE), or get this (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/karajorma/FAQ/Downloads/HotUv1.20Pack.rar) and extract Root_fs2.vp to your FS2 folder.
After you have done that, try using the most recent nightly build (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?board=173.0).

Thanks for the quick reply.
Doing this in stages - here's the log of FSO 3.6.18 (not nightly) build, but updated FS2 retail to 1.2 via copying(and overwriting) all files from HotUv1.2 pack into main freespace folder.
line in question from before should now read:
Found root pack 'D:\Games\Freespace2\root_fs2.vp' with a checksum of 0xce10d76c
which I hope is right x.x.
Problem in question is still happening, same setup. I'll edit this post/make a post (depending on whether I get a response beforehand or not) via updating to nightly.
EDIT: Still happening on nightly. Updated log attached (saved as txt I know, but wanted some filename difference). I've also attached a log of the working 3.6.17 debug from the BP installer.

Are your GPU drivers updated to their latest version?

Sorry for wasting time x.x, and thanks.
