uh, cool, so like, where's the FSO build to support all this new stuff?

I know Bobby has a new build, but for a stable 3.6 official build, I dunno

All the current pre-3.6 builds support it

3.6 is coming soon

[Taristin]

Heh. Rename thread: 3.6 Media VP

[Taristin]

Ooh. I didn't notice I made it in there twice.

[ShadowDrakken]

Downloaded the hiplanets several times now and every time it fails CRC.  All the rest came over fine.  Anyone else having trouble or should I keep retrying?

WMCoolmon:
Please tell me why my missions didn't make it, so I can fix it, please.
I read the post in there but I don't know what multilingual support is or how I messed it up
Edit: I mean I wouldn't care if you were waiting for the nebula backgrounds, but I think I would need to fix this, whatever it is.

[ARothers]

Wasn't 3.6 meant to be released today?  It is the 9th May.

aehm...

[IncendiaryLemon]

The (mv_zpack) is the all in one package? Which version of Lightspeed's planets does it include?

Every message is an XSTR() which contains the English message and a string number to translate with.  All of the XSTR() numbers in your missions had been reset to -1.  Fred probably did this without direct action from you but it does need to be put back the way it was.  You'll have to look at the original mission files to get the true string numbers for each XSTR().  I have to warn you though that there is an average of about 110 XSTR()'s in each mission.

Finally an answer, thanks will do...
Last week of school starts tomorrow and then I'll do it.

A far simpler plan would be to simply cut and paste the backgrounds section into a freshly extracted set of missions in notepad. Probably take about 20 minutes or so to do the lot.

I got that too. Looks like a dodgy package to me.

I try these with the last build (4-26) and the game CTD's on mission load if the sp_effects.vp is present.  I had to hide it in another directory to get it to work again.

[Taristin]

4-26 is the latest? Buh?

Looks like it got corrupted while it was uploaded, I'm re-uploading now. Should be done in 10 minutes.

1) Check for any other non-vanilla FS2 files besides the mediaVP
2) Have you tried making a new pilot?
3) The newest build is Kazan's 5-03-04 build; you might try it.

sp_effects.vp has been updated to fix this as well as a couple of table issues.  Download it again and you shouldn't have any problems.
