mods and campaigns dont play
I've tried all the newer builds and I get the same result. If I go to play with a mod or a user created campaign the game freezes when I click the hangar doors to start. It does not even get to the loading screen. Also, I did try the mod command in the launcher.

What build are you using?
Did you try creating a new pilot?

Newest build and I am using a new pilot.

May be you should select the new campaign in the campaign-screen first?

You're sure you installed it correctly to use the -mod?

Would you be able to post your entire command line?

I meant the entire command line, including the -mod selection.

Get rid of pcx32 - AFAIK almost non of the optimized effects need it and it is a real drain on your RAM.

You think that might be the problem?

 
mods and campaigns dont play
Ok the pcx32 command was not the problem so here is my command line again, C:\FreeSpace2\fs2_open_r.exe -spec -glow -jpgtga  -mod (any mod).

I figured it out. It was the kpack vp that was causing the problem.

My concern about the -mod part of the command line was that spaces in the mod directory can cause issues with it.  I needed to know if this was the issue you were having.

Later!
