Title: Selecting a new FSO exe file causes the launcher to freeze
Post by: Macfie on December 07, 2009, 09:12:21 am

Starting with the 5698 nightly build I have not been able to get any of the new nightly builds to work (5700 0r 5706).  The launcher freezes if I try to select any of the new builds and fred 2 wll not work with any of the new builds.  I tried renaming the exe files to drop the date and rev number. and replacing the old file with the new, both named fs2_open_3_6_11r_sse2 so I didn't have to select the new exe file.  When I went to open the launcher I got a message saying there was no disk in drive D.  Maybe this is a unique problem to windows 7 but I haven't had any problems with Rev. 5692 and previous.

Edit:
Never mind.  I tried it today and it worked.  Not sure why.
