Alright, as a compromise I added -noparseerrors. My offer to convert old .tbl files still stands, though, as long as I'm in a good mood. ;)

OpenGL, in a nebula mission, with -2d_poof?  What build are you using?

I had fixed it at one point by disabling -2d_poof in OGL mode but I can't remember if that was for 3.6.5 or not.  Recent builds should have it fixed properly so that -2d_poof works in OGL mode.  If that shot is from a recent build then I need to figure out what's wrong and fix it.

@kietotheworld:  What mission is that?  And are you using D3D or OGL?  If you aren't using -2d_poof then try using it and see if it makes a difference.

WMCoolmon's Tri-Build has pretty much all of my changes though.  I've got some new bug fixes going in over the next couple of days but nothing major.

Its happened 4 times to me, twice in te first mission of Sync, once in a different mission of Snyc involving a Deimos, Fenris, Isis, Poseidon, cargo container and a few Hercs and Myrmidons.THE only other time its happened was in a mission for Desperation Chapter 2.

Its definately happened in D3D and it might have happened in OGL, I usually play with all features on and 3d Warp enabled.

My builds don't cause table errors...they just enforce them more strictly. If the code says that a field is required, it requires it, rather than just popping up a warning in debug builds. This is because required fields are assumed to exist, and if they don't, the parser may read in some other field. The most common bug resulting from this is a CTD, so you should try and get the tables fixed to make sure it's something with them.

I recently added a command line option to disable that in the trouble shooting section, I don't know if any builds besides my testing one has it.

Also, there was a bug in mantis that was resolved by fixing a function related to the nebula code...I don't know if/when taylor commited it though. Should be in the next CVS build.

Oi...I'm not at home right now, so i can't really work on figuring out how to fix my SCP problem, but here goes:

SCP will not run. All effects off, all effects on, it doesn't matter. I'll double click "FS2_open_r" and all that happens is the screen goes black, starts making the clicking noise you hear when it changes resolutions, and then i'm stuck staring at my FS2 folder. It usually clicks about 8 times, then i'm back to the folder. Debug mode doesn't work, as I never get any debug data...the game just crashes either way. Resolution doesn't seem to matter either. Any ideas?

Go here and grab the endpart movies (You may wish to grab the rest too). Stick them in your FS2 folder.

You've actually completed the game but if you don't have the cutscenes you won't see why :D

Phoenix : You're getting both of these errors cause you're running with old VP files.

The 3.6.6 VPs should solve these problems AFAIK.

If you lack the bandwidth to download them at the moment there is a workaround in this thread.

There's a fairly big choice available. Skippy's campaign list is the place to start.

I'm not going to reccomend a campaign here cause that's a whole different topic (do a search or go to the campaigns forum and ask there, Or go look at my FAQ since I recommend a few there.)
