BP2 Chapter 1 startup error
Here's the error, and my FS2_Open.log. Now I'm a seasoned veteran and I think I set everything up correctly... this looks like an error with the contents of BP2's Core VP, but I downloaded the latest version and it's still there.

What's the problem? No spoilers, please. :)

Re: BP2 Chapter 1 startup error
Your bp_core.vp (which contains Mass driver#Karuna; bp2-wep has a +nocreate modification) has a different checksum than mine. Redownload?

[EDIT] here's mine, just for redundancy's sake.

Yep, looks like you forgot to update AoA. Now we have to kill a kitten!

Re: BP2 Chapter 1 startup error
Wait, I thought BP2 was independent of AoA?

BP2 shares BP1 assets. Would make little sense to include all the common materials in both releases, yes?
There are three things that last forever: Abort, Retry, Fail - and the greatest of these is Fail.

wut

But our release post, it is most explicit!

There's even some red text!

That said I do think the nest of dependencies is getting a bit tangled. I wish we could do an .exe installer that put everything in the right place and set up a shortcut or something.

Re: BP2 Chapter 1 startup error
Ah... I DID have BP:AoA:DC installed, but I had missed the August 7 update to BP1. Got it now, thanks.
