Hello

I have searched and searched and have found many that had the problem but I have found no solution.

My Problem:

My game is near completion and I am trying to add story videos. The videos associated wih the first level play fine. The levels above that, The videos crash the game. I have tried wmv, avi with many codecs, and mpg-1. I have tried loading from storyzone at beginning of level, also I have tried adding the videos to the levelsetup script. All of these work on windows vista, none of them work on windows xp (except the first level) I have tried on version 1.04, 1.08, 1.09. and version 1.13.

This is very bad, I want to release my game fairly soon and it will be a shame if I can not include the cut scenes. I will not release the game for just windows vista, it must work on xp as well.

Has anyone found a solution to this very bad bug?

Thanks,
Dennis

Here is the game in question:

http://www.truesourceshop.com/wips/fso/fsovidtest.zip

After the townsquare level there should be a video of a frog syaing dagnabbit you wiped out the town square, you won't have such luck in the stables.

If people with windows xp could test this and tell me if the video plays for them I would greatly appreciate it. I have tested it on two xp machines and they both crash when it gets to the video.

Thanks
