Interesting note on the floatspeed and movie recording. thanks for the feedback. Sounds like the high floatspeed causes some serious bottlenecking when recording video to file.

As far as custom models go, loading models/textures hasn't changed at all between 2.4 and 2.5.
Are you sure you've copied over all your models/skins/cfgs over to the 2.5 directory?
If so, maybe check your map's art configuration and make sure the paths to your models/resources are correct.
Hope this helped. Take care.

So I've tested 2.5 with windows 7 64bit and here is what i've found:

- when I want to insert some models from eagle it crashes randomly to desktop (for example: window1, knight) in every game mode
- sidescroller mode loads every map(sometimes even not) and then it crashes(finish :D, no way to play )
- r_teleport [tag] in the RPG doesn't work (crash to desktop if I use it)
- village_rpg in the rpg mode blocks and crashes when I'm going through the door to the outside

i've used the windows version and the multiplatform version with the same results.

PS: i've ported TGC on 2.5 (always with RPG mode) and excluding the problems that i've listed it works more stable as R1242
that i've used so far...


My Pc specs:

Ati Radeon 4870 (not overclocked)
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 (overclocked, but never problems found)
Asus P5KC motherborad
4 gb ram 667 mhz

@siimvuss: if you used own model, please post your model.cfg here, or send it via PM. if this happens with packaged model, post which of them.

thanks. offtools.

I've tried on my laptop aspire 4810TG. The ssp is working!!!

But this problems are 100% sure, I've tried on 3 pc's(with windows 64bit) so far:

- when I want to insert some models from eagle it crashes randomly to desktop (for example: window1, knight) in every game mode
- r_teleport [tag] in the RPG doesn't work (crash to desktop if I use it)
- village_rpg in the rpg mode blocks and sometimes crashes when I'm going through the door to the outside
