| Summary | 0001024: .mve videos take precedent across mods | ||||
| Description | .mve videos will take precedent over .avi videos across mods. For example, the FreeSpace2\data\movies directory contains INTRO.MVE. The FreeSpace2\Fs1_port_3\data\Movies directory contains intro.avi. When you launch Freespace 2 through the launcher and set the mod directory to Fs1_port_3, INTRO.MVE takes precedence over intro.avi, even though intro.avi is in the primary mod directory and should be used. | ||||

Doesn't ANYTHING in FreeSpace2\data\ take precedence over everything else? |
|
|
I would hope not. Some mods (most noticably the Freespace 1 Conversion mod) have their own intro movie. I can't get that intro movie to play because the Freespace 2 movie takes precedence. |

Mod directories should always take precedence. The problem here is that the movie players for MVE and AVI are different. Each can only search for it's movie type, and one or the other comes first, searching all available files for a movie of the correct type with the name in question. Putting AVI loading first will create the same issue for MVEs, so that's not the best fix either. This is obviously a bug, but I'm not quite sure what to do to fix it. I might have to add something to CFILE to handle this properly, but I think that's a crappy hack so it may not be the best idea. Something will come to me though and I'll get it fixed. :) |

This should be fixed when I sync up all of my code with CVS. It's not the best solution, but I'll wait on that until the Theora player comes out since it will be a bigger deal then. |

I think it will work fine now. Fixered. |
