The mediavps advps are about 300 mbs (not for the timid computer) :shaking:
Where would one find these advps files? :shaking:

 
Re: How would you "Describe" FreeSpace 1 and 2?
I passed the game with both cutscenes, first time i got caught in the supernova but this time i was smart ;) I decided i'd fight near the node so when the countdown started i could get my ass outta there pronto.

Made me wonder what the shivan's were doing sitting there at the sun stupidly when they could of just came in and killed all of us without much effort. I found out didn't i? Hehehe, Command shat himself when he found out about the supernova. So did i, i was like "I'm like 10km out from the damn node and i got under a minute to get to that damn node!". Before that, thinking "HAHA SUCKERS! I'M KILLING YOUR PEOPLE AND YOU CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!"

Excellent game, i have to say best storyline in a game ever! Took me 2 days to pass ;)

Good work to Turey on the installer, top job there and good work to the creators and modders and the general community of the game!

Ya, there are two endings: one; you don't make it, and you get a eulogy on how you sacrificed yourself so others could make it out, or two; you make it out.

There is a checkbox in the installer marked "3.6.8 Zeta MediaVPs with 710 patches". Under that in a sub-checkbox is *checks* 3.6.8 Zeta Advanced MediaVPs with 710 patches.



You can try these Super Advanced Uber-GraphicsTM, but they will kill your comp if it is anything less than top-of-the-line. If they kill your computer you can go into (your FreeSpace Directory)/mediavps and either delete or remove completely from your FS directory the files labeled "mv_adveffects" and "mp-710_adveffects".
Gettin' back to dodgin' lasers.

Surely they'd work on a AMD X2 4600+ with an 8800GTS and 2GB of ram?!

EDIT: Hmmm, seems I already had it ticked when I first downloaded this a few weeks ago. If you turn the mediavps mod on, will the advanced stuff run automatically?

Yep. Turning on MediaVPs just runs every file in the mediavps folder.

Nah, adveffects is not that demanding. It should run fine on most setups from the last two or three years.

 
Re: How would you "Describe" FreeSpace 1 and 2?
How do you know if you are using them?

Would these specs be able to handle it:

AMD Athlon 64 3000 @ 2.249ghz
1024MB DDR400
300GB SATAII HDD
ATI Radeon 9800 pro 128mb

Thats the basic specs of my PC.

EDIT: I went into the Turey installer and i found that i already have them installed.
