Title: No nebulae backgrounds with mods
Post by: FOX2PRO on April 25, 2014, 01:28:37 am

Using 3.7.1, with 2014 Mediavps, and Derelict Mod (upgraded to 3.7 version). All the high res models and effects show up, but background images are all black (no nebulae, no stars). Happens in both Derelict, and FS2 main campaign. Have tested both 2014 MVP's, and 3.6.12 MVP's, no change. Any advice?

Please post your fs2_open.log file.  Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post.

I can see a few issues :)

Firstly, Derelict 3.7 only officially supports 3.7.0 (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=85435.0) and mediavps_3612 (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=70736.0). There have been reports of issues when using mediavp_2014 and 3.7.1 so it's probably best to use the recommendations in this case.

Secondly, your mediavps_2014 (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php?topic=86475.0) install is incomplete. You probably need MV_Effects.7z and MV_A-Glows.7z as well if you're going to use MV_Advanced.7z.
