filters these days block files hosted here for "games"

[Mongoose]

Well, then, try downloading them somewhere where a filter isn't a problem.

[takashi]

the only unblocked download site is hades-combine. can anyone host mv-effects there? its the only one i need to get fred to stop colplaining about "could not find (insert filehere)"

Is the stuff here --->http://scp.indiegames.us/download.php?list.5 (SCP's webpage downloads... Lightspeed's upgrades) all in this 3.6.8 Zeta pack?

[Flipside]

Oh, while I'm at it, just a little something that seemed to need finishing off...

Shines for the Triton with fixed Alpha Maps so you don't get that shiny effect when the EMapping is turned on.

While you're there, grab the 2.0 versions of the other models - they're a bit better looking, should have fewer bugs and are more efficient.

[Flipside]

LOL I was browsing through the forums looking for stuff like that before starting it too (not that it was really more than a spacefiller, it was more about getting rid of the 'polished' look than anything else). Thanks for that.

By the way, considering how many incredible HTL models you've made, I find myself wondering why you are still title-less.....

[Vasudan Admiral]

lol; I did have the title of 'Member' long after that system had been dropped, so that sorta counts.

Incidentally, I think the fix had actually been made about 3 times by various people even before I posted the 2.0 updates.
Thanks all the same though.

[takashi]

holy cow, and i thought they were supposed to stay like they are in the mediavp's.

[Vasudan Admiral]

Errm, they're flying mirrors in the MVPs. That's a bug.

And hey cool, my "Member" title is back. I feel more complete already.

I know his may have little use because the 3.6.9. VPs are cabout to get out, but i have assembled a adveffects file, which the mp-170 adveffect.vp data and removing the super high end shockwaves... there are a lot of people (like me), who can play which the adveffects data, but the shockwaves create insane slowdowns...

You need to use VPView to extract VP's I don't believe WinRar or WinZip will work on these type of files?

Actually, thank you very much ShivanSPS!  It's a quite handy thing to have a ready to go adveffects pack (w/o the crazy shockwaves) considering almost no one uses the high end shocks anyway.  I had been playing around with it earlier and couldn't get it to work.  I look forward to giving this a go tonight.

Thank you!

PS-Just to clarify, you've intergrated the mp710 adveffects patch into this vp file, right?  So the mp710 adveffects vp is not necessary when used in conjunction with this one, right?

EDIT - Works like a charm!  Thank you!

I THINK I got 3.6.8. Zeta vp's but I dont' recall the Fiery nebula in it..
In fact, I just checked and the G labeled nebulas don't appear in FREd (they are listed in the stars.tbl but apparently I don't have them either in my effects folder or in a VP)???

Is that nebula in the VP's or not?

[Shade]

The nebulae found in the mediavps (in adveffects) are simply upgraded versions of the stock nebulae. "High-res nebulae {Lightspeed}" refers to those, not to the new set of amazingly beautiful nebulae that are also made by him.

[TrashMan]

Where then, can I find the new beautifull nebulas?

I D/L ed the latest file from lightspeeds site but the fiery nebulas aren't in it!

[Shade]

Someone posted a VP that packed all of them along with a .tbm to make them work some time ago. Try searching for "ls_neb.vp" and that should get you the DL link, assuming the site is still up. If it's not, let me know and I'll post it up somewhere for you to download. Oh, and to be certain, I just checked the .vp and it does include the fiery set.

[TrashMan]

Ya, found them...now get my Typhon in those VP's
