Yeah, maybe I should have made it clearer that the mod itself runs fine. It's the demo recorded in Ep2 that doesn't run in the mod although it's basically the same game entirely; at least that's what I thought. It doesn't work the other way round either by the way, meaning a demo from my mod won't play in Ep2.
Any idea what might cause this? I really just launched SDK, selected "create a new SP mod based on Ep2", compiled the binaries, and that's it. I guess that's not exactly what you guys shipped Ep2 as in the Orange Box, eh? ;) 2010/5/13 Tony "omega" Sergi <omegal...@gmail.com> > Ah, oops. > > Well either way, if you applied that fix then the error shouldn't happen. > unless the demo is not compatible with your build of the mod. > Now, if you can launch your mod and get into a level without the issue, > then > the only thing i can think of is that the demo doesn't match. > -Tony > > > On Fri, May 14, 2010 at 3:48 AM, Klaus Müller <tloeffl...@googlemail.com > >wrote: > > > > I'd base your mod on SDK Base Orange Box > > > (AppID 218) then mount Ep2 just below it with AdditionalContentId to be > > > on the safe side, even if it isn't. > > > > I tried that, but it didn't change anything unfortunately. > > > > Tony: that's the post I was referring to in my mail.
