Update: It seems that its only the crows bridge map with this probem! The tutorial works like a charm, and if you spacebar click new game and choose the traitor level, it works fine!

Another update.
Ive played trough the traitor and the siege of madrigal maps without no problems.
But as i try to play the homecoming map, it shows me the briefing and the cartoon movie, and then the screen flickers on and off, and then the "myth TFL had a problem and needs to close...ETC"
But when i try the next map, Flight from covenant, it works just fine.
Maybe its just the maps with cartoon-cutscenes that doesnt works?

TTTMiami it looks like you got some stuff installed in the wrong places. I suggest removing TFL & then deleting the folder with what ever was left in it. Then doing a fresh full install followed by the 1.5 update.

Neecap it looks like you might have some corrupted files or something similar to that. Try doing a fresh install and do a full install. I've seen similar errors from people running from CDs that are scratched.

Running 1.5 on my mac and it rocks. One problem (big one) though is that it doesn't play my old saved games. I can see them in the window when I save a game from 1.5 but when I go into Continue Saved Game option, they're not listed at all, just the 1.5 games. Is there a file format difference between the the old and new saves?

There might be. I never tested saved games, I spent a good bit of time testing old 1.3 films, but I never considered saved games. If there is ever a 1.5.1 I'll look into fixing it. Thanks for reporting it.
