Oops sorry,

Happens in the 30/01 and 31/01 build.
Flags: E:\games\FreeSpace2\fred2_open_r-20060131.exe -jpgtga -fredhtl -spec -glow -mod mediavps

But it works fine with 29/01 and earlier right?

This is likely my starfield bitmap update (dynamic stars.tbl limits), though I did test it in FRED and didn't have any problems. I didn't really put it through the paces though so I'll have another look at it later today or tomorrow.

I'll have to get an older build and check. These might not be all the same issue though. The top two don't happen if you take out -fredhtl. Deleting a background still causes the CTD though.

Another minor annoyance with the editor is that in retail you can add a background and change the detail of it straight away where as with current CVS you have to add another background or click on another one first and go back to it or all your changes to graphic, pitch, bank and heading are lost. Not at all critical, but a pain when you keep forgeting to do it...

I can confirm this does not happen in the jan. 29 fred build, but crashes in both jan. 31 and feb. 2. Used fredhtl with all 3 tests.

Yes I know, everyone can relax now. The problem is fixed but just not in CVS yet.

This should be fixed in CVS so if there is a new FRED2 build available then give it a try and make sure all is good now. It worked fine for me in testing, but I don't really test FRED2 that well.

Just reopen this if for some reason it doesn't work for you in the next build.

Fixered.
