This is probably a ridiculously nub question, but I have just recently installed the latest FSOpen files along with all the mediavp's, the game runs fairly smoothly (not to mention beautifully). However, I've noticed that the game intro doesn't play on startup anymore, and am wondering if this will be the case for the rest of the cutscene files. I've isntalled them all into the freespace2/data folder.
Not to mention, you guys doing this source code project are simply amazing. I remember playing FS1 as a young kid (joystick and all), and it being my first space sim, and I was hooked ever since. Unfortunately I have never been able to attain an actual copy of Freespace 2, as its such a ***** to get, but I have finally come back to my roots and downloaded the game. Am I ever glad I did (joystick works like a charm!), as this source code project is such an incredible showing of how communities in gaming have the ability to move things forward as much as developers and publishers do. This pretty much tips the balance in inspiring me to go into computer science rather than the medical route I was initially planning. Thumbs up to you all, amazing stuff.
