Re: The Blinding White Light of Death
Was this the location of the ma-sdrvfix.vp file?  I can't seem to find it again.  I just thought I would mention that during my testing of it, the shaders failed to compile for some reason.  However when I swapped in Zacam's recent Zuper Shader release they resumed compiling just fine.

Re: The Blinding White Light of Death
Yeah it was an attachment on my earlier post and the attachment has since been deleted.  I'm pretty sure that Zacam's recent set includes the fix though, so ma-sdrvfix.vp shouldn't be needed any longer.

Re: The Blinding White Light of Death
Sorry to bring up an older thread, but I have downloaded what I think are the latest mediavps from Zacam, and I'm having the messed up white textures showing up with the damage lightning. I've looked all over for a fix to this. Apparently, the older ATI OpenGL driver .dlls aren't compatible with the newer 4800 series,as Freespace 2 crashes every time I try to use them. I was interested in that ma-sdrvfix.vp file, but I can't find it anywhere.

Is there anything I can do to correct this without disabling GLSL? My specs are:

Athlon X2 2.6 Ghz
2 GB RAM
ATI Radeon 4830 using Catalyst 9.4 drivers.

I'm using the most current 3.6.10 files that I can find.

Please help!

Re: The Blinding White Light of Death
Here is the shader fix! Extract to your MediaVPs folder.

Re: The Blinding White Light of Death
Sorry to bring up this topic, but for some reasons I'm not able to download the latest Media VPs at this time, I'm now using the Media VPs from December 2008. I've just changed my card to a HD4800, so I'm having the "white and lightning" problem. I've looked for ma-sdrvfix.vp but so far no luck. Maybe it's been deleted. It'll be great if anyone here upload it again for me. :)

#Edit: no need to upload anymore, I've spotted it here. Admin, moderator or staff if you read this please don't delete the file again, I think it really useful for people like me who cannot upgrade Media VPs at this time.(My place's internet bandwidth is extremely low so download a large size file is impossible.) Thanks. :D
