I've downloaded 'the 5 champions' plugin for Myth 2, and the SB champion plugin doesn't work at all. The levels load just as normal, with all normal units. TFL plugin for myth 2 with the TFL plugin works up until 'Ambush At Devils Outlook' where the whole game simply crashes; several levels prior the beginning intro-'map' scenes cease to appear as well. (as if the data has become truncated at that particular length into the file)

Is it possible these files have become corrupted yet again? If so, I'd really hope they get re-uploaded because I'd love to play those levels. Thanks.

You're 100% sure you've activated the plug in your plugins folder, turned it on in the 'Plugins' menu, and selected the proper level to start on? I havent actually checked that plug out myself, so i'm not sure if it has new meshes, or works like a unitset.. more info mb ;)

Absolutely sure. I even downloaded a second time to make sure the file wasn't corrupted at my end. The extra levels don't even appear when the plugin is loaded on the Soulblighter legends campaign, they do with TFLs, but only up to that level I mentioned ("A devil of an Ambush" / aka Ambush at devil's outlook) where the level 'loads' then goes black and crashes to windows XP.

Ok, I've confirmed the "A devil of an Ambush" level to crash myth. This problem will be fixed for Myth II 1.5.1 - which should be out fairly soon. As for the other problems you're experiencing, I'm not sure.

So the Soulblighter legends campaign works for everyone else? I did notice, that when I completely delete the plugins, and redownload them and use them again, all the levels I played to before I can skip to once again, and the Soulblighter 'first level' is never triggered to even allow selection. Maybe if it wasn't corrupted in that way before, and opened that first level, any new re-download of the file will appear to be working?

If the meshes aren't showing up, hold Shift while clicking new game. (You have to activate the plugin so activate it, click cancel then click New Game again holding Shift - you should see all the levels.)
