Hi Jeff, Very glad to hear this resolved the problem - I haven't submitted this to MM as I suspected that is was more specific to my install - obviously it's not.
I wonder what we are doing differently to the other 90% of farcry users who never have this problem? any ideas. In terms of reporting to macromedia - would ideal fix be to give a more helpful error message or to create the temp directory automatically?
