Need help remembering where to extract files.
I guess now all of a sudden a lot of .VP mods need to be taken apart and have the respected files (.ani, .pcx, .tga, and all that stuff), unless I also forgot where .VP files go as well. (Example being Scooby Doo's ships and Steve-O's ship / weapon packs) Could I get a list of where all the file extensions go to?

This might be the wrong place to post it... :nervous:

Freespace/
somevp.vp
someothervp.vp
    data/
        effects/
            someeffect.ani
            someothereffect.tga
        models/
            somemodel.pof
        tables/
            stuff.tbl
    somemod/
        somevp.vp
        effects/
            someeffect.ani
            someothereffect.tga
        models/
            somemodel.pof
        tables/
            stuff.tbl

etc...

And yes, this is the wrong place.  This should probably go in Freespace Modding.

That doesn't really make a whole lot of sense to me...I'll try to figure it out anyway...

Could it be moved then?

You shouldn't need to take the VPs apart...

That's all I've been seeing recently, "Open the .VP, and extract the .effs (Somethingthingie)" or...something like that...

If a vp is even half-decent, it'll have the proper structure already and you can just see, where the files are.
