Film Viewer Won't Work.

[lyric1]

  Nothing has changed for me just tried with new patch & a new recording & it crashes immediately.

Fixed in 2.18 Patch 8

Yup, problem solved, Thanks a lot!

Older films still crash viewer

That is not a bug.  It is due to changes in the resources for the game which can occasionally render older films unviewable.

It should not crash if you do not have the terrain.  It should simply show a blank screen.

Perhaps it would be best if the film editor warned the user using a dialog box that he/she does not have the said terrain installed, and provide instructions on how to remedy the problem.

That's awful.

Would the availability of an older Film Viewer help MajWoody?  I kinda like old stuff too

I guess I'll just view them on my old pc with the older version of ah I have on it. Gotta get it out & dust it off. Thx Chilli.

Maybe it's something on my end (?), but I haven't been able to get my viewer to work at all, with any films, since about 3 patches ago...

Must be something on your end. Since a few patches ago I can even watch the old Agent 360 films that he made with the narrations.

You were right...  I did a full re-install before I posted here, with no luck.  I did it again following your post, and now I'm good to go...

Thanks!
