[FUBAR-BDHR]

Well the last file it tries to load is the multi voice pack.  I check and the crc's don't match mine.  Try removign both the multi-mission and multi-voice packs.

[GTSVA]

Fubar.......that WAS the problem. I removed those files and the game started! Thanks a lot Lobo, Fubar, Andicirk and Hunter for all your help.

[Jeff Vader]

other than that

bite me

"bite me" or "beats me"?

[GTSVA]

Man what a week....

I think he means "bite me"

[Circ]

Hello,

I hope this is the right place to post this.  I have recently purchased FreeSpace 2 from gog.com and am using the freespace open mod to get the awesome graphics, but am experiencing random crashes.  FYI, I think I've done all this correct:

I've installed the 3.6.10 mediavps to a subfolder at C:\Games\Freespace 2\mediavps.
I am using Launcher 5.5d
I am using nightly build 3.6.10 from 1.29.2009 currently

Basically, randomly, I crash to a pure white screen where the OS says the game has stopped responding.  I have a feeling the video driver is crashing, but could be wrong.  Once I close the application, I am back at my desktop.

I am running Vista x64, q9450, 8 GB RAM, 8800 GTS 512 with the most current video drivers and a Creative X-Fi.

Any ideas would be appreciated.  This game looks to kick MUCH ass (makes me remember tie fighter and X-wing), but it's a ***** having to try a simple mission 6 times just to get thru it without crashing.    

Thanx in advance.

I've been having this same problem.  I have all the up to date drivers and latest version of FSOpen.  No one has really come up with a reason or solution to this problem.

I also have a 64 bit OS and 8800 GT SC  It could be the 8800 though, lots of people have problems with these cards.

[--Steve-O--]

i guess this is where the fist shaking occurs so here goes....

just tried plugging in the newest batch of 3.6.10 stuff, (MVP and execs for build #5097 from the nightly build ) and when ever i try to load up some missions in Fred the thing panics and spews all this gibberish at me.
now these missions worked just fine with MVP 3.6.10 beta and one of the earlier 3.6.10 exec betas (pre build 4893 i know that much) so i just want to know what is going on here, and how do i correct it.

That one is probably my fault. I'll take a look at it now.

EDIT : Try this build and this one. The first one will probably work while the second one fails.

[Circ]

This is happening a lot now.  FS Port crashed a few times but Silent Threat Reborn is crashing like crazy.  I've had to redo almost every mission at least once or twice.  Same thing every time, something is crashing my video drivers.

thanks for the feed back! i just tried build 5069, Fred just found something different that it hated.

[karajorma]

Are you trying to reload missions that you saved in the other versions? Cause that almost certainly won't work.

[Circ]

I'm really sorry to beat a dead horse, or maybe I missed something but has anyone explained why I'm crashing to a pure white screen where the OS says the game has stopped responding and the OS states that my video driver is crashing?  Is it a vista thing?

[chief1983]

I have a X3350 Xeon, which is basically a Q9550, a 8800 GTS 512 (same as the first guy, but which is probably a different chipset entirely from the 8800 you have, so again it's probably not related), and 4GB of ram running Vista64.  I also have the latest 185.xx drivers, and I don't experience any crashes like you guys are referring to.  You could try tweaking the options to see if a given combination causes it, specifically try disabling glsl in the launcher settings under Troubleshooting, and pick and mix the graphics options too.  Also Circ, run the debug version of the exe (something like fs2_open_3_6_10d*) from the launcher, and post a copy of the fs2_open.log from the data folder.

Are you trying to reload missions that you saved in the other versions? Cause that almost certainly won't work.

I created a back up of the original missions done on the build i was using befor i tried to upgrade. when trying to save the missions failed on a certain build i would dump them and import a new copy of the backups into the missions folder and try again with a different build.

on a similar note, i just tried using the recent release candidate build for fred to see if maybe that would resolve my problem. nope. fred would open the missions (a new copy of the backups) but when i would try to save them....error message.

so im figuring that salvaging older build missions is a no go, unless i go in and manually replace the lines FRED is freaking out about. Any pointers on that?

[karajorma]

I think I'm going to need to see one of the missions. PM me a link and I should be able to solve this pretty quickly.

EDIT : All three missions worked perfectly well in FRED for me. I got some complaints about missing ship and weapon mods but no crashes. I'd suggest removing the ;;FSO 3.6.10;; sections with notepads search and replace and then trying again.
