Is this a known problem? CTD on trying to open the campaign editor?
Exactly as the title says. Using the official release build of 3.6.9.

Looks like it's related to the number of missions I have in the mission folder.

With 8 it works as normal.
With nine I get to see the campaign editor, then it crashes (The first column is full at this point).
With 10, I see the very first little bits of the window forming, then it crashes
with >10 I see nothing, and it CTDs while the main FRED window is still the only thing visible.

Looks like it's related to scrolling through mission names. If I trim the mission filenames down, I can have more without a crash.

Incidentally, the campaign editor only seems to want to look in Freespace2\data\missions rather than TI\data\missions even though I'm using -mod (though that's not really much more than a minor inconvenience)

If it's a known issue, I'll wait for 3.6.10 or DL a new build, if it's new I'll mantis it.

No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras
