Great to see HLP's still pretty much the same, almost makes a guy feel like he hasn't been away for most of a decade. :D

Well, the "Noob's Guide" appears to have all the stuff in the 3.6.10 MVPs release thread...not 100% sure.

After some more cross reading it does appear to both contain the same ....except the "Nightly Build" part....so I'll wing it and see what happens :)

Just a bit excited at the moment....I actually found my FS2 cds in my storage (read piled wall to wall to near ceiling) junk room and so far they actually still work.  lol

Course I'll have to suffer through using a gamepad for a few nights until I get out and find me a new flight stick.  Hmmm maybe it's time to finally get that Cyborg Force Feedback stick I had my eye on awhile back.

In case I haven't mentioned it....God bless you guys for keeping this alive and getting to the point you're at. I honestly didn't release how much I missed it and how much I've longed for a damn good space combat sim since FS2.

*Edit* WHOOOFrakingHOOO My cds still work and I got FS2 installed again :)

The nightly build part is pretty necessary to run the MVPs.
Though at this point, getting the 3.6.10 RC1 might be a better idea.

[noob mode]So that's the newest version of MV_Complete? Or am I missing something here?[/noob mode]

Also have the squad logo parameters changed or is it still the tiny PCX format limits?

3.6.10 RC1 is the FSO exe.
The newest version of the MVPs -is- the one with MV Complete.

Ok so let's make sure I'm seeing the correct file list I need to get:

Turey's Installer
MV_Complete
MV_Music
Readme
Mod.ini
Launcher Graphic
Launcher55D

Now IF I've read and not missed anything, the first installer will actually get most of the files, and the other's are just added into the file structure as well.

or have I missed something here,.....I am getting on in years ya know.

:)

Again thanks for all the help everyone.

Yeah, that should cover most of it.

I don't think the installer gets you 3.6.10 RC1 though, so you should get that. If it does, someone say so, then disregard this comment.

I'll double check the above "Suggested reading" threads and see if I can locate a link for that file specifically.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Don't let Turey's installer download the MediaVPs, people have reported them being corrupted and Turey hasn't been around lately to fix it. I suggest getting them direct from the release thread.

Hey Sand,....how's life been man? :)

Wobble, yea that's what I ended up doing, just as the Noob guide says, let Turey's DL everything that delete all contents of the mediavps folder and download the complete + Music into it.

So far so good,....just a quick check, ran FS2 to the first nebula mission last night.....aside from needing a good flight stick desperately things seem to be good ;)

Sadly just me as far as I know.

Though the wife's likely going to get into it as well :) So that's a plus.
