Hey everyone! I recently got back into FS2, and decided to update my 3.6.5 install.

I already registered 1 account, but my activation e-mail never came, so right now I'm, Kahn2. I'll have to harass Goober later.

Anyway, I got 3.6.9rc5 and the launcher that came with it. I got all the 3.6.8 MediaVPs and the 3.6.9 alpha patches. I also got DaBrain's compressed beams, because I was afraid the uncompressed might kill my 9700 Pro (I got all this information from S-99 in the Upgrade forum, in a topic where someone else was upgrading from 3.6.5.) Now. Everything's running without a hitch. Except nothing really looks much different from 3.6.5. A ship getting hit with a beam doesn't reflect the beam color, every part of a ship seems to be the same lighting, regardless of where the sun is. There is no "dark side." There's also no shockwaves. These are all just things I noticed in the first mission, because -allslev isn't working either. The launcher says "Unrecognized command." Come to thing of it, it said that about a lot of stuff when I pointed it to my exe. Maybe I need a different launcher? But I don't see how that could be, since it is the same one that came with the exe.
Oh, and there's no little picture of the ship in the target box.
Thanks guys!
