Problems installing Fall of Vasuda Prime extended cutscene
I just did a fresh install of FSPort 3.1.1 and I followed the instructions given for installing the extended cutscene.  I used VPView and extracted the missions from the fsport-missions.vp and used every build I have of Fred 2 to try and open the freespace.fc2 but it says "Couldn't open Campaign file!".  I tried opening Freespace2.fc2 and it works.  Any clues as to what's wrong?

Why not open it with Notepad?

Well for your personal reference, most things FRED/Freespace related can be opened and checked with notepad/wordpad, except texture files etc etc. Useful for when FRED locks you out of a mission for whateverwhich reason.

Logged and very much appreciated.  I'm a die-hard fan but I'm not very good when it comes to editting files and manipulating them yet.

See my post in this thread there is a modified campaign file and cutscene table.

Normal people believe that if it isn't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it isn't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.
The difference between Mechanical Engineers and Civil Engineers is:
Mechanical Engineers build weapons.  Civil Engineers build targets
An optimist sees the glass half full; the pessimist sees it half empty. An engineer sees that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
