Turn off alpha env mapping from the launcher's experimental features section.

As for the movies not working, where did you copy them from, and where did you put them?

My nameplates still don't work on some ships.

The movies don't play even if the cd is in the drive... I don't know what to do...

Running the debug build doesn't create any log file or something

Are you using Direct3D? That'l effectively prevent the cutscenes from working. Switch to OpenGL from the Launcher's Video tab.

Double-check this.

Oh sorry! It doesn't play with OpenGL either (i was using GL before I ran the debug... when I ran the debug I switched to DirectX)

Query: Only the videos don't play, or the entire game doesn't work with OpenGL?

As a general rule at the moment, DirectX isn't really actively supported, so you should be using OpenGL if at all possible. Anyhow, since you run the debug at D3D mode, it doesn't really help in solving the problem of missing videos because they don't show up in D3D anyway. Run the debug again, in OpenGL mode, and re-post it - that should have more information on why the OpenGL mode doesn't show the movies.

The movies on the CD do work with FS2 Open 3.6.9, I found out,  but the end one was all red. No green, no blue.

MVE was removed at one point, but now it's back.

Damn, allready stated.
