Spaxspore's Media Pack FINAL

For Rav8 B5 Mod

Spaxspore B5 Media PACK FINAL For RAV8s B5 MOD


IMPORTANT!!!!
EDIT-

IF you downloaded the FInal Media PAck use the fix pack. I accidently complied the corrupted .bik files ... am reuploading the final pack with the included fixes. But its 200+mb and takes me 2hrs to upload on my pipe. So use the pervious fix pack if you already downloaded the final, if u havnt you can download the file just use the two .bik clip (miltaryvictory & culture victory) from the fix pack. Until i finish uploading.

Sorry everyone! Like i said in my readme, i did this @ 3am yesterday. If u see anyother mistakes please let me know.

Introduction-
I made this media pack to cover the pervious 2 media packs, and also to add additional footage, and feel in the rest of the gaps. The premesis of this mod is in order to gain additional depth from RAV8's B5 mod for Gal CIV 2(more depth the better).
I wasnt sure if i was going to make additonal clips and movies. But after such a postive response from
the community... well what the hell why not.
So not only do we have all the stuff from the previous to packs and the fix pack. But we have new footage,
for the narns, Minbari, Vorlon, EA, and a new starbase Clip.
Also ive redone almost all the race avatars, i think they look a heck of a lot better.(for one, i got a pic
of g'kar )
In This mediapack you will have actual movie clips replaceing game ones.
Here is a list of movies/cips replaced:



New Race Images for Vorlons,Minbari,G'Kar (the real Deal), Londo
All Race Clips (default,Happy,Unhappy) Narn,Shadows,Vorlons,Earth Alliance, Centuri, Minbari
Built Starbase (first Starbase)
VICTORY Miltary
Victory Culture
Victory Tech
VIctory Alliance
Fleet
Battleship (your first medium size ship)
Colony (your first Colony)
Trade Route (first Trade ROute)
Trade Route Destroyed
Invasion
Anomalie

Understanding is a three-edged sword.  

So, maybe, I can stop restarting games to see all the new vids.

I just want to make sure I'm doing this right -- this pack is your 1 + 2 together (plus the FIX pack) and some new movies?

My Victory_Military.bik went from 22MB to 4.4MB, which replaced the one from the fix pack.

filefront keeps timing out when i try uploading, rapid share doesnt want to work.

Any one want to host this? Until i get filefront to work, ive tried 3 times already

Since the "mods" folder heirarchy has its own "movies" directory, is there any way to get these movies to live there, rather than in the game's "movies" directory? That way we wouldn't have to worry about backing up the game's original movie files, and we wouldn't have to worry about seeing B5 movies played when we weren't playing a mod. Or am I fundamentally misunderstanding something here?

you not, but ATM i dont know how to get them to work in the mod directory
