Unable to load any mission on FSPort
I'm getting this error:

I've just downloaded the new 3.6.9 SCP mods.  I must be missing something, what is it?

Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
Sounds like a table error.

 
Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
Thanks.   Reloading the table files seems to have worked.

I've got a similar problem.  The app crashes on loading 4th mission

So how can I fix the table files? Should I have to get it from retail FS1 CDs?

 
Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
I looked into "fsport-missions.vp" and found following strings.
----------------------------------------
$Formula: ( when
   ( and
      ( is-goal-true-delay
         "Capture the Rasputin"
         0
      )
      ( is-goal-true-delay

         0
      )
   )
   ( grant-medal "Commendation Medal" )
)
+Name: Grant Medal
+Repeat Count: 1
+Interval: 1
----------------------------------------
But there is no "Commendation Medal" in FS2...

Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
There's a Commendation Medal in FS1.  Make sure you're using the latest Port VP (i.e. fsport3_0_3).

 
Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
I'm using FS2_Open 3.6.9-RC7 and fsport3_0_3.
I installed following files into .../Freespace2/FSPort :
  fsport-awakenings-voice.vp
  fsport-awakenings.vp
  fsport-fs1_training.vp
  fsport-missions.vp
  fsport3_0_3.vp
  sparky_hi_fs1.vp
  stu_fs1.vp
  tango_fs1.vp
  warble_fs1.vp
but it's not working.

Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
Awakenings, AFAIR, goes into it's own mod folder.

I also don't see fsport-glow.vp, fsport-shine.vp or fsport-hi-res.vp(though these are not technically necessary, they do look A LOT better), you should also have a data sub-folder in there as well as a mod.ini, portv3.bmp and a settings.ini.

That's useful, but not strictly necessary.

None of those are needed.

Samurai, try redownloading fsport-missions.vp, then redownloading 3.6.9 RC7dot8.

 
Re: Unable to load any mission on FSPort
I removed all -mod options except FSPort in cmdline_fso.cfg, and everything's going right.
Seems like tables in mods were conflicting each other.
Sorry to let you have trouble. Thanks for help! :)
