Title: I'm new. :) MediaVPs 2014 won't run at all. Error copy/pasted into this thread

Hi, everyone! I'm new and glad to be here, and very glad to be making an attempt to play FreeSpace 2 in Win7 x64. It has been way too long since I last played it (when WinXP was still the latest), and I sorely miss it. Freelancer is satisfying, but not 100%. hehe :)

Anyway, without further ado, here's the error that I'm getting:

Code: [Select]
mv_effects-sdf.tbm(line 16):
Error: Required token = [#END] or [$Species_Name:], found [$Countermeasure Type: Type One] .

ntdll.dll! ZwWaitForSingleObject + 21 bytes
kernel32.dll! WaitForSingleObjectEx + 67 bytes
kernel32.dll! WaitForSingleObject + 18 bytes
fs2_open_3_7_0.exe! <no symbol>
fs2_open_3_7_0.exe! <no symbol>
fs2_open_3_7_0.exe! <no symbol>

Can you help?

Note: the game launches just fine without any mod, and also with MediaVPs 3.6.12.

The 2014 MediaVPs require a version of FSO newer than 3.7.0. I highly recommend that you use 3.7.2 RC4 or a recent Nightly Build.

Thank you. All is well now, and I'm configuring my keyboard layout!

Edit: Is the 'Kick ass' link a bit like a Reputation or Reward system?

No, it lets you play a game of asteroids with the page; it's just a silly timewasting thing.

Oh lol

Thanks again, btw. I just finished the first part of the training, and it's like riding a bike. Only, this is the best damn bike in the entire world!! I haven't been this happy in a long time. LOL My most favorite and most beloved game is back in my life, and it's better than ever thanks to this mod!
